Yet, it was no meme page or troll account posting that image: It was posted on Biden’s own X page early on Monday. Coming against the backdrop of Israel’s brutal war on Gaza that has killed more than 28,000 people and that the US has backed, the image prompted particular criticism of Biden by some social media users.
Many suggested that Biden’s post was distasteful and insensitive as it came amid Israel’s devastating war on Gaza.
While calling for an end to civilian deaths in Gaza, the Biden administration continues to sell and supply weapons to Israel.
“But I don’t think Biden is thinking of the global audience here,” he said. “He is mostly thinking about his US audience.”
“The meme in itself is a political communication tool,” he told Al Jazeera. “It is being weaponised by different parties in order to attract attention and distract from other issues.”
Biden is not the only politician who has used memes to relay political messaging. Social media teams and followers of politicians including former US President Donald Trump, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi have banked on memes and internet trends to further political messages.
Yes, nicknames are given to people.
Friends also tend to give each other nicknames.
Genocide Joe is a fitting nickname to the “most progressive president in our lifetime”.
Does the troll farm you work for have good benefits? I ask only because I’m looking for somewhere with a good dental plan. Lisa needs braces.
Sadly, I am located in the US.
We do not have M4A or guaranteed vaction time, if you use too much we get fired or disciplined.
Many have to work multiple part time jobs to get by.
Dental plans are a dream to many.
I would suggest to go to universities and let students work on your teeth, it is the more economic route, many in the US use that as a way to fix our teeth.
Just expect long lines if you go to dentisty students for procedures!
