minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•1 year agoIt was overused the first time it was used. “We are not the same” is such elitist garbage. I can’t believe a meme used for looking down on people and being arrogant has seen such wide use.
minus-squareb00mOPlinkfedilink6•1 year agoWhile I agree that some folk would do anything to see themselves above other people I think you might be missing the irony of the meme
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink7•1 year agoYeah lol it’s almost always ironic-- “You do this thing for some normal reason. I do it for a weird reason that may reveal a salient character flaw.” If somebody did use it to actually self-elevate or gatekeep, that would be pretty cringe. But almost all of the usage I see is ironic.
