        I’m reflecting on your refusal to interact with the medium. That is not an assumption.

        I don’t assume its source based solely on this image, because this image doesn’t identify a source.

        We’re not discussing a source, we’re talking about a trend in conservative discource and how it applies to memes. This isn’t a doctoral defense of the media. You dodged an honest question with a refusal to engage. Thus you’re currently being, in this instance, willfully ignorant.

          There’s plenty of shitty fascist stuff to get enraged about that is supported by evidence.

            Now you’re making assumptions, I’m not enraged.

            I did however make the mistake of assuming you would argue in good faith. I acknowledge that now.

              Read it again. I didn’t say you were enraged.

              I could super easily sit here at my own desk and make shitty memes and post them here, and I am way way far away from anything that could be described as “right wing.” Anyone else can do the same. Has that happened here (maybe not even by OP but by wherever they got this from)? We don’t know. There’s nothing in this image to indicate who created this image or why.

              I won’t apologize for wanting anything which would go towards confirming that this was posted somewhere as a right wing meme. I haven’t given up on facts.
