I'm guessing he's wearing the Steven Crowder shirt, actually. It's got that same picture of Che on it, with the same font. If that's the case, the shirt's full message says "Socialism is for f*gs". The "is for f*gs" part is underneath Che's face, and so is obscured in this image.

I would normally link to that shirt, but fuck Steven Crowder. Not gonna be responsible for driving traffic to that shithead's website.

What does he have against frogs?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

It's the chemicals, actually. They turned the frickin' frogs gay.

It's obviously figs

I looked it up, and you're 100% correct - you can tell because there's a stereotypical limp-wristed hand to the left of Che's face on that shirt, which you can see in the picture. No duality here, this guy's just another right-wing asshole.

But why does the hat look like a Rasta hat?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

Because normal sized hat + microcephaly.

I thought the same

This guy Qanons. They make about this much sense. His mom was just happy he remembered pants today and that his clothes match at least.

Doubt it. The cognitive dissonance there is triple- or quadruple-bind.

The duality of the fast food worker.

He just likes red, and I respect that

Know enough about who Che actually was, and you could kinda see how these fit together.

Che really is a weird figure and never understood why he became a iconic image.

Cletus don't need you're book learnin to know what its socialism, that there.

I mean maga coms are real so this could be a real possibility

[–] spacesweedkid27 1 points 1 year ago

Maybe they cofused national socialism with socialism.

Ok random thought: If you split the word "national socialism" into and then read again knowing when the terms "national" and "socialism" imply, you could actually just derive a socialist country that values being a nation with culture. Nationalism doesn't even have to mean pro-state (prostate) like you can see in the liberal national movement in the first German revolution (Märzrevolution).

I support the trolling of everyone

Slurs aren't cool or funny

This meme originated during the Rage Comic era, the r-word was still common use. Agree that it could use an update.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I understand the context, I can tell it's crispy. Just wish people would do a little bit of editing for stuff like this, it's not hard to quickly draw over and replace some text

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I’m imagining the original person that created that meme being like “I’m so unaffected by that dude’s trolling that I’m going to draw a meme to show people how little I’m thinking about it”.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

This is just a mediocre attempt tho

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 year ago

Yeah modern socialism is not right
