I like 3. I like both the political memes and the memes about people tired of political memes. Thanks for the community recommendations!

I'd prefer option 2.

SturgiesYrFase , vor 9 Monaten

Option 1 and 2 are actually the same rule didn't get the fact there was an instance change, ignore me.

Sotuanduso OP , vor 9 Monaten

Not really. Option 1 is the political memes moving, option 2 is the complainers moving.

hypelightfly , vor 9 Monaten

No, it's not. memes is the community we are currently in. Subscribing to memes is not "moving".

Sotuanduso OP , vor 9 Monaten

We're on !memes. Option 2 is the complainers moving to !memes. Same name, different instances, different rules.

SturgiesYrFase , vor 9 Monaten

Sorry, missed the fact that there was an instance change in option 2

We live during a critical point in history, and I am determined to laugh at it

rynzcycle , vor 9 Monaten

You can laugh or you can cry. Personally, I choose both.

Literally seen more whining about politics than I've seen politics.

But stuff like pipeline infrastructure, could be used for transporting hydrogen as ammonia in the future.

You mean geography?

Presenting subjective truths as factual is the easiest giveaway that they aren't anywhere close to being a real university. Pure propaganda, and they can't even get they right.

There's actually a very simple reason for this phenomenon. A standard spring mattress essentially acts like a giant mirror, reflecting all sorts of radio waves, including your cellular signal. This can cause interference, leading to a dead zone in the near vicinity. The same effect was documented back in nineteen ninety eight when the undertaker threw mankind off hell in a cell and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcers table.

Potatoes are so easy to grow. You can grow a lot of them in a trash can full of dirt.

AeonFelis , vor 9 Monaten

Tell that to the Irish.

WhiskyTangoFoxtrot , vor 9 Monaten

The Irish's problem wasn't that they weren't growing enough food. Their problem is that Britain was taking all the food they did grow.

The bathroom stall at work gets 0 bars.

flashgnash , vor 9 Monaten

Would be funny if they'd built a Faraday cage around the bathroom to stop people sitting on the toilet on their phones for ages

Who uses their phone data at home?

I assume countries that have affordable data plans from ISPs, but still..

The photo is terrifying.

Give me one real world example of where it isn’t used to oppress the working class

China, 1959-1961. Checkmate liberal

It's always weird to me that people associate Dictatorial Command Economies with Communism. On one hand they like to label themselves as communist but on the other hand y'all really gotta learn to read between the lines. It's like saying socialism has failed buecase the Nazi's had socialism in their name.

Cleverdawny , vor 9 Monaten

This is just the No True Scotsman argument. Every communist nation has always insisted that the dictatorship is a necessary transitional state so that true communism could be achieved, and been run by parties espousing the need to achieve that communism. Those dictatorships have never truly moved towards that.

Either communism is impossible or communism is dictatorship. You can pick either one, but there's not another option.

Negative, the Nazis came for trade unionists first. Quite the opposite of what a socialist party would do.

Cleverdawny , vor 9 Monaten

While the bolshevists coopted the unions and turned them into agents of the Party, corrupting them from representative bodies into people spying on the working class for disloyalty

ComradePorkRoll , vor 9 Monaten

Buddy, I'm an Anarchist, I don't praise the Bolshevists. I have my critiques of them too but I'm not gonna sit here and say the Nazis were Socialists because they have "socialist" in their name. "Baby oil" doesn't actually have babies in it.

Potatoes are amazing. They grow easily in a wide variety of soil and produce food which has every nutrient we need except for a complete protein. And, they're a vegetable, so you can tell someone you're eating your vegetables and then go to McDonald's for some frenchy fries

kubica , vor 9 Monaten

The frying is the questionable part. (Well, the french part too but...)

wdym a 'complete protein'

Cleverdawny , vor 9 Monaten

There are several essential amino acids we need to survive but don't produce in our bodies. No plant has all of those amino acids, but every animal product does. You can get complete plant protein by consuming multiple different plants, so if a vegan has a varied diet they're usually fine.
