One funny thing about the meme is that that person in the bottom row might simply "view" themselves that way, or exaggerate the contrast between him and the guy in the upper row.

YOU ARE SO CLOSE TO GETTING IT

no one on earth looks like the dude in the image but I see people everyday who genuinely believe that's what they look like and their life is doomed

you can see how someone who is exposed to that mentality regularly would be alarmed to see it appearing on here right?

So... Next time you want me to post it with a trigger warning? I didn't really feel like it needed one, being a meme and all.

And please stop taking to me like this, this patronizing tone is not called for.

I want you to post memes that aren't shitty, that's all. and I wanted there to be at least one comment calling this out for being shitty.

we can agree to disagree on this one. I can appreciate that you laugh at the funny face, but the message genuinely disgusts me.

I apologize for my tone. be well snek

In any case, thanks for pointing it out. Obviously people should be aware that it's a meme that has incel undertones and is likely made by an incel (I found it online and reposted it here... not really anywhere in specific, I think I was duckduckgo'ing something else and this popped up in the results, so not from 4chan or anything like that).

I can appreciate that you laugh at the funny face, but the message genuinely disgusts me.

I respect that. I understand that, if seen from the incel lens, this meme looks bad.

I want you to post memes that aren’t shitty

Sorry, sadly that's not something that I'll stop doing on Lemmy Shitpost. I recommend you check out Ten Forward, where I post better memes... if you like Star Trek.

I apologize for my tone. be well snek

You too, TimewornTraveller, may you travel somewhere less cruel than our current era for some time and rest that weariness 😊
