Random Old Memes and ✨Stuff✨

Got sick of bigots, and pedants, and trying to figure out if something is “meme enough” to count, and of feeling like I’m spamming other spaces, and very quickly of the lemmy UI too (still love you blahaj.zone!) so am opening my own space where I can make my own rules and post my collection in peace. ❗BE WARNED: SOME OF THE IMAGES YOU SEE HERE MAY NOT TECHNICALLY BE MEMES❗ Now that we got that out of the way, let the infodump commence! Expect a mix of slightly outdated: mostly leftist (but never tankie) content, many cats, and some general old memes I’ve collected over the years. There are many, so will try to mix it up! Update: looks like 🐝Beehaw🐝 have banned this magazine. If you want real leftism rather than "nice" (more like "unchallenging to the status quo and the comfort of libs") leftism, I guess you'll have to follow from elsewhere!

"Over population" is an argument for eugenics masked with environmentalism. It is eco-fascism and seemingly every liberal believes in it.

The originator of this hypothesis (Malthus) explicitly wrote it to counter the arguments of early (utopian) socialists, it's quite literally a counter revolutionary arguemnt, and one that both Marx and Kropotkin tore to shreds at least a century ago.

Broad generalization like “seemingly every liberal” makes for a poor argument. You either need to make a factual statement with references or note that’s it’s a personal observation such as “in my personal experience…”

Furthermore your premise “over population is an an argument for eugenics masked as environmentalism” needs to be further defined. It’s not clear these things are related without some examples.

Aw, poor lib didn't like a generalisation (that clearly applieas to you) and doesn't care enough to do 2 seconds of research while demanding I do it for them...
Gtfoh 😂😂😂

Seem you don’t understand how making a quality and good faith argument works. I’m not going to go looking for research to back up your claims. Also you’re responses to my criticism is childish and defensive. If you’d like to engage in a healthy discussion perhaps avoid petty personal attacks. Finally you have no idea what my stance is on the matter. I think there’s probably a lot we’d agree on, but you’re too busy trying to make enemies.
