Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.

Rules:

  1. Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.

  2. Respect one another.

  3. All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.

  4. Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.

Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.

As an American, I'm terribly sorry for what we exported politically to your country.

I don't hold you, or any Americans, personally responsible. I understand that there's a certain culture in your country.... Not the primary culture, there's a mash of a few different cultures, but one specifically (you know which one), that's particularly problematic.

That culture has infected us for seemingly no good reason whatsoever. A lot of the issues that are central to that culture are not even discussed in our political circles because they're issues we've basically decided on already, that, with any luck at all, will not be changing.

Those up here that have tried to stir the pot have so far, gotten nowhere.

The most significant impact that I've directly been aware of from American politics was the mask protests. The idiot bridge that decided to have a demonstration at the capital during COVID, ironically leading to several of them getting COVID in the process....

It's not just the anti mask protests I'm taking about, it's the group that would have a protest about mask mandates. IMO, they're the most direct and significant problem to be inherited from our neighbors to the south, and bluntly, I don't consider them a representation of the nation as a whole. For the most part, like Canada, you're all just regular people living your lives trying to make it by. Not deranged activists trying to prove a point that everyone understands and thinks you're an idiot for dying on that hill.... Oh we know what their point is, we just don't care, nor agree with it.

I'm sure most of our neighbors to the south are just trying to get by without struggling too much.

I'm certain you're mostly all fine folk just trying to live.
