meme culture is just...

omg I know that meme! Hey, let's look at knowyourmeme...wait, it was based on racist/antisemetic/homophobic thing originally??????

I cannot even count the number of times the popular meme of the day turns out to be something from 4chan than was like nothing but slurs but in six degrees of separation I got it from my feed full of queer POCs who didn't realize that it started out like...that and are using it gayly about their blorbos now.

Refuse to elaborate gigachad? Was about antisemitism. Change my mind? Was about transphobia. "___ did nothing wrong?" originally the ___ was Hitler. YES meme? That's Aryan man wojack and it's usually about white supremacy/nazis. (The female one is a tradwife, also.)

Kinda wild how fast memes can go that people so against the original problematic context can gleefully use it about gay stuff.

ANYWAYS, IT SUCKS. And yet I am shocked every time.
