Welcome to politcal memes!

No misinformation

Posts should be memes

No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
This image was crossposted from !conservative@lemm.ee. The average subscriber there probably has a much different interpretation of who the image could be referring to. Conservatives are not present in reality enough to even consider that Trump and Musk are the baddies — the “corporate bobble heads” and the “rich and corrupt” as the image says.
To my pleasant surprise, the top comments on the crosspost are sensible:
Wasn't that the community that was taken over and is now conservative satire?
Ah, I didn’t notice. I already had it on my blocked list so I glanced at it in another browser and saw about a dozen posts by a user named Donald J Musk that seemed to be sharing articles in earnest.
Wasn't that !conservative@lemmy.world? From what I can see the .ee one is still under old management. Or did I miss something?
Oh, that's possible! I wasn't 100% sure either, hence phrasing it as a question.
On a side note - I find it hard to keep track of similar (or same) named communities...
That isn't a conservative community, fyi
No, it is. The one that's now satire is on lemmy.world
