    I was on and off sending this reply as a whole, when I read this comment it put a bad taste in my mouth, and having nobody mention it, I decided I might as well send it.

    While I’m glad knowledge is being provided, but, the way this was phrased looks like you are trying to gatekeep joy and quite frankly given the meme is pretty ironic.

    No need to be so serious. You can make your point without insulting the meme or the OP, and you can definitly do so without laughing at the OP. I don’t think this was your intent which is why I ended up sending it anyway,

    The general ideology of the meme is there, and while not 100% correct it’s understandable and carries truth(which is both platforms punish trolling). Which is honestly all the matters.

      i have no ill will toward OP. but this is a post in a politics sub about conservatives leaving the privately owned business that is run by a literal nazi—i am going to be serious and let them know that bluesky is also privately owned and capitalistic. i didn’t make my response until OP called mastodon a “joke.” OP is free to respond and say they didn’t mean to take this angle or were unaware—and if they did i would apologize and take everything back.

      but this isn’t about “joy.” people are dying. mkay? mkay. good talk.
