in the first stage of encountering a new rightwing meme, the libtards rage and seethe and call it racist. in the second stage, they attempt to appropriate it for themselves
seeing keith "national security blanket" olbermann calling vax resisters "snowflakes" was really something

@velartrill it's really interesting that the young left people are as unable to meme as boomers. boomers just don't know the culture as an explanation, but i think the left/mainstream now is so occupied by fear of saying something _deeply offensive_ that they can't have humor anymore. everything they try is as funny as "official humor" in dictatures. occupying terms of the "enemy" is kind of classic imho.

@bonifartius i think it's simpler than that tbh -- humor just doesn't work if it doesn't have some soul behind it, and the woke left has been utterly drained of their souls over the past five years or so
