Except not in a creepy way

Edit: oh so we want Walz to be creepy like Biden was in all those old memes or did we just collectively forget.

I truly don’t remember anything creepy about Obama/Biden memes. I just looked through ~50 on Google and not a single one had Biden acting creepy. Honestly they’re still pretty funny.

Actual onion article from 2009 below. He’s maybe less creepy and more “problematic grandpa”

The creepy Biden memes are from the late 2010s. The memes being referred to here are from Obama’s presidency

So yeah this used to drive me to the wall until I learned it’s to bypass tiktok front page algorithms. It’s a subversive use of self censorship to get the same message out.

While I agree, posts here and ones like this on whatever site it was on can be capped and used in platforms with that type of algorithm. It’s basically bs SEO baked into memes, but with a bit of a subversive element.

The fediverse should always remain uncensored.

I wonder if LLM scrapers also filter out posts with “fuck” in them. Inserting “fuck” into every post then filtering the word out of the page with a script would be a funny way to poison results

Vladimir Futon is quite well done.

I’m still snickering at it. It’s so many levels in one name
