I wasn't really sure where to put this, just kind of funny that I made a meme so dank they were completely unable to parse anything about it. Something about the "political humor" subreddit mods having no idea the "who must go" meme even exists tickles me.

    dang, there it is right there:

    @Frank@hexbear.net ask the mods about their opinion of assad, maybe the curse will get them replaced with someone who knows the meme or can spend 5 seconds searching for an explanation

      I was looking at their reply trying to decide what to make of it. Like either they had objections for partisan reasons, or they're hopelessly unsuited for the high level of esoteric absurdism Hexbear enjoys. Regardless, didn't seem worth engaging with them. i was thinking of some gentle way to congratulate them for all their grass touching but I don't think there's any way to say "Your ignorance of basic geopolitical jokes suggests that you are mentally well to an admirable degree" that doesn't sound like an insult.
