They/them NB
The most annoying thing about being famous is having to tell everyone how famous you are.

A big issue here, especially with the MCU stuff, is that it’s not a skin color thing with those changes. They updated the whole character in order to make them into races that are more friendly to China. They’ve done this repeatedly and stripped identities and character traits from characters over and over again.
Every single Romani character that’s appeared in an MCU movie has had their heritage removed and replaced with generic white. Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver are good examples (since they’re the ones in the meme) but I don’t see any way that Robert Downey Jr is going to be able to do the complicated Romani backstory of Dr Doom very well.
I agree that Ariel was swapped for marketing reasons (and arguably specifically to cause outrage and get people talking) Ariel doesn’t have a racial heritage that plays into her life and identity… She’s a mermaid from the sea… Not a member of a group with a large history of being discriminated against.
Sometimes a post fits into multiple communities.
This one is a meme so it’s in the 2 big meme communities (the community is highly fractured between the two because of people’s opinions of .ml and .world), it’s also a Simpsons meme specifically so it ends up in Simpsons meme communities.
Tbh I think they should make it so if a post is crossposted (which they know already) then when it’s marked as read, it’s marked as read across all of them. This would have side effects but it’s the best solution I can think of to the problem.
I always heard it starting with:
"You have 300 bricks and you throw one as far as you can, how many do you have left?
299"
The elephant to the river is the same but this joke is told about someone else crossing the river instead. Finally it ends with:
"But… They still don’t make it across, why?
Because you threw a brick at them!"
This user is a troll. In a month they’ll edit the post to say nothing and then move on to the next troll.
Looking at OPs post history… They missed one actually
Incorrect! Cars 2 is the most important one because it’s the only Pixar movie where the bad guy is anyone with a disability!
I bet cars 3 doesn’t have eugenics!
We already had no pooping for 3 days and beans though
The “source” listed is a mastodon account called “low quality facts”. Take that as you will.
I made a community for low quality facts (the account that originally posted this and similar media) and fake celebrity quotes falls under this community: !lowqualityfacts@lemmy.zip
She didn’t. The source is the post on mastodon by “Low Quality Facts” an account that makes stuff up and then posts it within 5 minutes of thinking about it.
I think you might’ve eaten the onion.
An ad free experience would be too high quality so I have to
Damn :/ man overdosed on the perception of reality
For political ones there’s !toiletpaperusa@lemmy.world
Correct! I made sure to link the post itself in the description
Text reword option:
My friend: sharing a meme as their own
Me: who originally sent them the meme
Also yeah I really enjoy this image and I think the fable of the scorpion and the frog could be used in more memes tbh
You make a fantastic point
Actually mines are where all the fairy dust is gotten from :/
