    Fuck I hate Thomas Shelby memes.

    Not because this meme is bad, or the show isn’t good. I hate that a 40-year-old, fat men have adopted him (and others, like the Joker) as their identity or role model.

    Dude. You aren’t a 1920s crime lord dealing with betrayal. You’re a mechanic with a shit boss, now get back on those tools.

    I get the escapism, but a lot of the text that goes with these memes perpetuates toxic masculinity, which I can’t stomach

      I’m pretty sure it’s ironic.

        It’s just a jumping off point for me rant.

      What about the poor starving landlords in Africa? Don’t they get anything?
