Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

I'm general I agree, but I draw the line at face tattoos. If you have face tattoos I assume you are dumb as sticks.
I possibly would allow ones around the edges, and of course Maori face tattoos are fine; but otherwise, yeah.
Why?
Because the majority of people with Maori face tattoos are Maori, not gobshites.
Floridian culture does not get the same respect, I'm guessing?
Don't underestimate the stupidity of white people looking for an identity to fill the void of meaning in their lives.
Since New Zealand isn't very big, there's a good chance we're just a fad away from having millions of 22 year olds getting shitty imitations onto their faces thus ruining it for the Maori.
It's not cultural appropriation BTW, because Kaylee and Braden absolutely do have Maori heritage 409 generations ago!
Americans are weird.
Thoroughly weird.
That guy posts on ich_iel though.
All I gotta say is thank goodness for tags. How else would one keep track of all the crazy fascists and Nazis.
You talking about him, or am I branded fascist now?
Jumpy. Certainly justified these days but a bit uncalled for. I didn't call anyone a fascist. I simply mentioned a feature of the app I use which helps me track individuals that fall into those two categories. I was not actually referring to anyone in that specific comment.
And now you get your own tag as well. Have a great day.
