I’m not the biggest fan of genocide Joe myself, but when it’s the only thing you post about 24/7, people are going to start to get suspicious of your motives.
I kinda get it, but I would argue that Trump/the republicans have gone so far beyond parody, that it’s actually become way too hard to make memes about them.
Hmmmm? So your argument is that since Trump’s ridiculousness has become a parody of itself, it’s impossible to tell the difference between right wingers and leftists making fun of Trump?
I kinda get it, but aren’t there always clues in the subtext?
Like why does the account only have marginally (arguably) leftist memes but no other pro-left content? Why don’t they comment on any pro-labour issues? Why are they on the midwest.social instance?
I think there are a lot of clues to give them away, but ofc I could be mistaken.
As an observer and commentator, you’re necessarily a part of the spectacle. It’d probably be better if you took your role a bit more seriously than “Haha silly man said things”.
If you don’t want to spend time with critical analysis, then maybe you should leave the speaking (or typing) to those that do.

No, my argument is that it’s harder to do funny content on Trump that’s not been done already.
I didn’t investigate them that thoroughly, since in the end: it’s only a lemmy user.

WTF are you talking about? Sorry, if I don’t write my dissertation in the form of comments on a meme community. /s
As the election comes closer, people are going to talk about it more. Shocker.
