Can someone please explain the joke?
Just a bit of absurdism. Modern-day leftists often fight over the legacy of Marx, who was hugely influential; the joke here is that "IF MARX WAS HERE TODAY HE'D-" and instead of "be 'x' ideology" it's "Enjoy a well-regarded classic game"
Ah, thank you stranger. I feel kind of dumb now lol.
No worries! Sometimes memes seem like they might have some more subtle joke to them, but no, in this case it's just being silly.
Yeah, I also tend to over think shit. Sometime a cigar is just a cigar.
I have never heard this saying before, what the fuck could a cigar be? Did someone think it was a worm? a stick? a bomb??
It's a quote often attributed to Sigmund Freud. I don't believe he ever actually said it though.
