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 Expect a mix of slightly outdated: mostly leftist (but never tankie) content, many cats, and some general old memes I’ve collected over the years.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!

tweets by Qasim Rashid, Esq. @Qasim Rashid:

UN estimates it costs $30B to end world hunger

World has ~2200 Billionaires worth $8.7T

So for .3% of their worth-they could end world hunger

That's like someone who makes $52K/year spending $3/week to end world hunger

1B ppl starve annually so 2200 can buy a 40th yacht

To those arguing it's wrong to "give away billionaires' money," what you're actually arguing is:
•Starving 1B people is better than slightly raising taxes on 2200 people
•Poverty is a life choice not a life sentence
These lies have collapsed past nations-& will collapse ours

Are you a pro Russia troll? Or an anti tax troll? Or both?

Either way, fuck biden, but tax money isn't his, so while I agree that money already in the tax pot would be better spent on feeding people than on war, the point is the money from those who personally have most isn't ever making it that far.
