    This literally is one of those people comparing themselves to ethnic genocide victims. “The big bad nazi gubmint is coming after your grandma’s thanksgiving dinner” is the (barely) subtext of this meme, I don’t understand how you are missing this.

      If you ask the people who didnt want the restrictions, the meme was exactly what they said would happen. But I digress.

      I found the meme funny. A great satirization of the lockdowns and the arbitrary “10-12 people” imposed. The menace imposed by sending gestapo to hunt thanksgiving parties of all things. Having seen the movie and being relatively learned in history, and have decided to share it 3 years after it was made because I can’t be bothered to Save fresher material.

        I’m also afraid of things that never happened

      Because it’s a meme and OP’s comment history doesn’t seem to indicate that.

        who the fuck cares about OPs comment history? I don’t know or care what’s in their heart, all I got is what’s in this meme. it’s a cringe meme, that’s start and end of it. why the fuck you guys gotta try and investigate people’s entire character as if any one of us couldn’t just post something dumb without thinking

          OP’s motivations were called into question. I don’t see evidence for the accusation in OP’s comment history. I personally took the meme as just a meme, but other people refuse to.

            “It’s just a meme bro” is the saddest defense of this sort of crap. It’s schroedinger’s douchebag - if people don’t like the right wing tripe you’re spewing, don’t worry, it was just a joke!

            No attempt was made to lampoon the viewpoint presented in the meme, it was just given primo facia. The idea that it’s being offered with a wink and a nod is a justification after the fact that rings totally hollow.

            Also, “ironically” being a nonce is still being a nonce.

              My case in point. You obviously just want to be outraged about something. I hope you enjoy yourself…have a nice day…

              It’s not “just a meme bro”

              It’s a direct parody of the governments and lockdowns during Thanksgiving and the reactions surrounding it all. It’s absolutely “lampooning the viewpoint”. You can take the meme serious, you can take it humorous. But you know, I think k that in 6 hours or so when I post another Thanksgiving meme, I’m not going to remember this conversation and let your seriousness in a Memes channel live rent free in my head
