dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Too low to sustain? These old pieces of shit live on the backs of the young.

IMO when it comes to boomers, retirement age should not exist. They ruined the entire fucking world. They shouldn’t get to retire.

I don't know what sort of world leaders your parents or older relatives are/were, but I can assure you most folks had no say in world matters back then just like we have no power to influence the things going on in our time.
Ageism is some manipulative bullshit.
