"I will NOT live in the pod, I will NOT eat the bugs" is often a cry of these kind of christofascist dickbags I see on 4chan, who recognize all of the absurdities of capitalism, and instead think to blame it all on (((them)) (the jews) and any/all minorities, instead of on their economic system and it's major propagators. It's sort of similar to the "You will own nothing and you will be happy" type of thing. That can be really valid in some circumstances, but in others, it can just be because people really don't want to buy into public transit, or really, don't want to buy into any shared public good that they can't "own". I would not really be surprised if this specific image macro originated on 4chan. That maybe sounds paranoid, but it's giving me those vibes pretty heavy, for sure.
