I'm not even sure what your point is. Yeah I'd rather sleep with a dakimakura of my waifu Renge-chan than with some random 3D slut but that doesn't mean I'm desperate, it's the opposite, it implies that I have standards.

Are we still talking about this?

But the children are dying! Do you not care about the kids???

How many days do you think are in a week?

Hint: you're fucking wrong

Depends on your workout schedule.

>Please don't meme ______

Brilliant strategy.

Vice, Buzzfeed and Vox. Trifecta of retardation.

And next week

"How we socially engineered a meme to existence"

I'll take how to get people to meme something for a thousand, Alex.

i love wheel of fortune :yum:

2/10 meme. Keep working on it, you'll make a funny one eventually.

Figured it might trigger you, I didn't make it though, shamelessly took it from somewhere else. Don't you have some "hate" posts to remove somewhere faggot?

No, I don’t. Don’t you have chores your parents are expecting you to finish?

Oh burn!

Thanks fam

We recognize the hustle

I don't think his parents would trust him to finish them

Maybe that's why he's so angry. You don't earn any GBPs for tendies by not doing your chores.

Heh, trigger

Yeah, you're pretty triggered.

U/TempleOfGold Did you really just follow me here from another sub because you're THAT butthurt?

Just proving a point. Later, tard boi.

Good "point."

Mayocide now!

How did me and zaggot slap fighting cause an entirely new line of drama? Guess the sub is working as intended...

I'm a mother drama shark, usually the underlings release when I leave whatever dumb sub we were just in but I guess this one wouldn't let go.

you realize no one is fooled, right? like your impotent anger couldnt be more obvious

lol

I'm triggered by unfunny memes

Please delete your post

Nah, I like that it's riling up all the faggots here.

What's your phone number? My therapist wants to speak with you

202-863-8000

She said you wouldn't answer you absolute coward 😂🤣

Also why are you already saved in my phone as "boss man big $$"? Ugh groce

Sorry I'm very important.

takes one to know one 😎

NO KINKSHAMING REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

🔥ABSOLUT🔥ROASTED🔥

Lol that poor cuck didnt know what he was getting into 🤣😂

Don’t tell me what to do vice

There was a point??

black man got some money

yeah I remember that, he had to sail chevy chase's boat around the world or something then abed wigged out and went all meta

Gets money, dances around while not giving two fucks about all the chaos and strife going on around him, pauses to shoot people and light up a joint.

I think the point was to trick woke liberals.

I thought it was a pretty interesting video. There's so much going on that I had to rewatch it to catch some of the things going on in the background. The dancing was weird af

Dong Lover has a pretty weird ideology from the looks of it. On the one hand hes really pro-black and thinks America is a racist place that frustrates The Black ManTM but in this video hes clearly showing the bad side of black culture where, so long as youre making money and entertained, nothing 'real' matters. Take that alongside one of the latest season of Atlanta where black people people are a cause of never ending trouble for Paper Boi (jacked three times this season just for walking around alone as a famous person) and Earn and takes the time to show a sort-of surreal party scene where the black guys spend the evening smoking weed, dicsussing southern hip-hop and sharing an interest in guns with a confederacy flag laden white boy frat.

These things are not accidental, he knows what hes saying.

how dare people meme this most important piece of African American art featuring some dadbod capering like a spastic for his wypipo audience

The shot with his bitchhip love handles from behind was just embarrassing. Set black men back a few decades with that.

He's calling back to Jim Crow with that pose, so astute observation there.

Lmao African Americans are probably the most culturally disconnected people on earth. The roots to their ancestors’ traditions and way of life were severed long ago.

Lol

I’d say I’m pretty cultured in comparison to your average black American.

MDEfugee pls go

How so? Black American culture not only accounts for well over half of all "American" culture, but because of their unique history, despite the relative youth it's incredibly rich, self-contained, and influential. It was created in the equivalent of a sociologic pressure cooker.

So again, what's your culture?

Single motherhood and trap music don’t count as culture.

So again, what's your culture?

Anglo-American/Irish Catholic.

What is American culture to you? Do you really think the "x" in X-american matters? Were you raised in Ireland or england, or are you American?

What is American culture to you?

American culture to me is primarily Anglocentric, although this notion has been continually subverted since the 1960s.

Do you really think the "x" in X-american matters?

The “x” in X-American used to not matter, but when the U.S. government decided to turn the country into a melting pot, X-American became a way of setting different ethnicities and lineages apart. Immigrants refusing to assimilate didn’t/don’t help either.

Were you raised in Ireland or england, or are you American?

I’m an American first and foremost, whatever that means anymore. I can trace some of my ancestry in America back to the 1600s. I have ancestors who fought in the American Revolution and in the Civil War (Confederacy). My mother’s side of the family still owns farmland in Virginia from generations ago.

Addressing the “if I was born in Ireland or England” point, I have close relatives in Northern Yorkshire, England; and I am eligible to become an Irish National if I wished it.

please don’t bully the Mexicants living in Baston

Excuse me sir I am a Texi-CAN living in Bahstin gettin' my dunkin donuts and living the good yankee lyfe 😎

So, do you also identify different "x" american cultures by their social issues, or is it just the ones who look the most different from you?

Also, sorry, you're completely just wrong (or maybe just sheltered?) If you think American culture is "anglo-centric." When you think of American music, food, language, style, what do you think of?

For better or worse, were stuck together now so you may as well stop trying to divide Americans by outdated lines and perhaps just try to make our collective situation the best possible. Separating us by ancestry is, tbh, straight up pussy shit for bitches who get scared by complexity.

African American culture’s impact on our society has largely been negative and degenerative. I’m not going to deny that good things have arisen from the African American community, like Jazz; but then again, have blacks collectively bettered society outside of anything other than music? Also, regional African American cultures seem to be of some value (like the Gullah/Geechee and Louisiana Creole cultures). I understand that all ethnic groups have their dregs. Unfortunately for the African American community, a large portion of their culture is influenced by lowlives and thugs.

Also, sorry, you're completely just wrong (or maybe just sheltered?) If you think American culture is "anglo-centric." When you think of American music, food, language, style, what do you think of?

For starters, we speak English. The founding fathers were descendants of Englishmen, America is a former colony of England, and our nation’s values stem from English liberalism and English philosophers like John Locke and Thomas Hobbes. When I think of American food, I think of hamburgers, hotdogs, fried chicken, BBQ, etc. Not to mention that there are many local cuisines that are distinctly American too. I don’t really know what you mean by style, so I’m assuming you mean fashion. Which I’m not going to bother answering because of my lack of knowledge regarding fashion.

For better or worse, were stuck together now so you may as well stop trying to divide Americans by outdated lines and perhaps just try to make our collective situation the best possible. Separating us by ancestry is, tbh, straight up pussy shit for bitches who get scared by complexity.

I’m not dividing Americans by outdated lines, intersectionality pushed by the left is. I’m not afraid of complexity either, it’s just that homogeneity trumps diversity in my own opinion and the melting pot has proven to be problematic. Especially since it has recently seeped out of urban areas into traditionally white suburbs. What does it even mean to be an American if anyone and everyone can become one? Even the illegal immigrants who refuse to assimilate are somehow “just as American” as the rest of us. Are we a nation, or a joke? I fear that the nation state has been rendered obsolete by globalization.

Lol literal MDE retard thinks anyone will read this

OUT! OUT! OUT!

What does e pluribus unum mean to you?

Do you think any classic American anything would exist without the fact we are a literal mix of fuxking yuro rejects, natives, and other immigrants mixed with capitalism?

Look, I'm sorry you feel weirdly inadequate in some way that you need to cling to "white" identity. Dude, im a lefty, I give this much shit if not more to the hysterical retards on the left arm flapping about appropriation or what-have-you. If you want to retreat to you safe mental space where whiteys are superior, you're as bad if not worse.

If you want ethnostates, just say it. And dont shy from the fact you the antithesis of American. If that's what you believe in, you do you, I dont give a shit. Just please dont drag my nation into your minority offshoot ideology tho. Have the courage to stand up for what you want (the opposite of American values).

This is fucking retarded. Pretty much all American music, black and white, is descended from a mix between jazz and southern folk music. Black and White culture are so intermixed that it's difficult to tell where one ends and one begins. Go to a trailer park and tell me how different it is from the ghetto. Listen to old stories about Hank Williams, he was way more intense than almost any rappers you hear about today. Soul food and southern food are the same thing, and are pretty much the basis for American cuisine. We have been sharing culture for hundreds of years because we've been living side by side and dealing with almost the same shit, especially the poor white people.

til jazz is anglo

I never said Jazz was anglo...

^ Also lol /u/chaddingtater we got a fake Mick here

Kiss 'em, /u/king_of_connaught is oiresh!

OHHHH SAY CAN YOU SEEEEEE

My great-great-great-great grand uncle once owned an Irish Setter so top o da fuckin morning me laddy

I’m not even claiming to have any real connections with Ireland. If you’re referring to my username, it’s from my first run in Crusader Kings. I’m an American.

Well start acting like it then and try to uplift all Americans. Also, lol, I won't go for the easy bait of making fun of crusader kings

Little retarded bitch can't understand jazz. K.

Crackwhores and country music don’t count as culture either lol.

"Dirt poor white trash family that came to America because they were too stupid to grow crops" you mean.

It really is so vibrant. The way they have culturally enriched Chicango, Memphrica, Detoliet, Bodymore, Killadelphia, and Apelanta is simply amazing. Their love of education, hard work, obeying the law, and not knowing who their fathers are make them the best neighbors.

Lol those American cities you know that, right? What music and food do you like bugman?

post bussy mayo mayo

OUT! OUT! OUT!

You have to go back,

I like chicken livers and watermelon. It is the diet of Kangs. And not at all a Southern tradition that originated out of starving Southerners having to fry everything to get more calories out of their meager food supplies. I also like listening to the hippity hop. The diverse and creative ways they manage to defile the English language never ceases to amaze. You would think that there would only be so many ways to write a songs about drugs, crime, and hoes. But apparently not. This song is my favorite.

Wow you're definitely an interesting and worthwhile mediocre male mayoamerican with interesting insights! Do you have a blog I can subscribe to?

At least my insights have some basis in reality. You take a sociology class at some community college to come up with yours? "Black American culture not only accounts for well over half of all "American" culture"....You really believe that blacks are responsible for over half of all American works of literature, poetry, music, art and responsible for over half the cultural norms, behaviors, and values that Americans engage in? Do you even know what culture is?

See? This is why I need to follow you. What's your blog or Twitter?

Who are the quintessential American artists in your opinion?

The seminal artist of the 20th century is obviously Riskay.

lol black american culture isnt even a thing its all half hearted appropriation

Ok bogan lol literally no one cares what a fucking aussie has to say

P.s. ur cute

everyone cares about what australians say on the internet, thats why we always insist on telling everyone were australian to the point of randomly inserting it into usernames and shit

Lol @ unironic mde posters migrating here. This sub really is shit now

Wanna go back to freedrama? I kinda do. We just need to convince snally

lmao cryposting about MDE kids countermeming you on r drama. you should leave tbh, it'll be worth the ensuing sub drama

My therapist told me I should reduce stressors and potential triggers in my daily life, but she also said I should try to assert myself and my needs.

I'm not going to do anything rash until my next court-mandated session so hold your horses hombre

if she's telling you anything except to keep yourself at utmost safety levels, she's a worthless therapist

I'm very safe, thank you for your concern.

P.s. reported, you ficking terrorist

look idiot, I've been in both subs for a long ass time now and the comments are basically indistinguishable from eachother, the only difference being that MDE is actually funny sometimes.

Yea like the guy getting triggered because he saw lesbians with dyed hair on an airport, goood shit right there 👌👌

if none of the comments on that post made you laugh then you're a real huge faggot

That retarded post made me laugh enough, I didn’t need to go through the comments to read some awkward sam hyde impressions

haha holy shit you're retarded

No u :D :D

POST BUSSY lol

But if people posting their absolute worst sam hyde imitations makes you laugh, then enjoy it dude 👍. I just don’t find it funny when people bitch about degenerates ruining western society while 100% being either fat neckbeards or insecure manlets, providing no additional value to western society. At least sam hyde works out lol. Or used to, does he still wear that neck brace?

half the comments on that post are making fun of the OP and they do it way better than you do.

Embrace the degenerate techno-hell that is the inevitable downward spiral into the preliminary stages of cyberpunk America. Ride the tiger. Guard your soul and purify it as best you can while the world and the minds of it's denizens rots around you. Act forthrightly so that you do the most possible good for the people that deserve it, and everyone else will certainly get what's coming to them.

he said the d-word :O

That was the only sentence in the whole rant that even approximated humor.

checkmate MDE, you guys aren't funny 100% of the time unlike drama with our clever and very funny homegrown memes about mayocide, bussy, and TAY TAY lol

Hey how much can you lift?

kick rocks, retard

🤔🤔🤔🤔

LOL

😴😴😴

What if they're both retardedly unfunny? 🤔🤔🤔

i will meditate on this

Report back when you solve the koan

LOL

LOL

😴😴😴

👉👉👉

Anime isn't 'culture'.

What's up in Bayreuth, my cracker?

indeed with 1/12 irish/german blood seething through your veins you can truly connect to your ancestors... by drinking large quantity's of liquor on certain days of the year and doing abhorrent accents

I’m know you’re just memeing, but I’m not German at all and I’m 1/2 Irish. And no, I don’t try to pretend that I’m from Ireland or any of that shit. You’re most likely the Amerimutt here.

Mystery meat mutts like you need to go back

white people culture is literally thousands of times richer than any black culture

you just dont see it because its ubiquitous as fuck now, being the best culture in the world

Ok honey 😘

Give your favorite huntsman a pet for me

hah another brilliant australian observation from cultural expert ladyvetinari

hunstman spiders are a thing here, youre right!

i cant wait until you make a joke about a wombat thatll be a knee slapper i can just imagine it

but are you going to argue against my point? unironically pretty sure the entire modern world is white people culture

like any country that builds skyscrapers or has clean drinking water and doesnt have punitive rape laws has copied white people outright, because civilization without feces everywhere is our thing

Go walk under a dropwombat

wombats are meaty af theyd actual snap a tree branch

people who hit them in a car by accident end up totalling their shit

Do you guys eat those thicc bois? I wonder what they'd taste like

gamey id imagine

pretty sure itd get you arrested though

I just looked up pictures they're really fucking cute. I no longer crave their meats

they also shit cubes interestingly enough

Huh lol that's pretty neat actually

What weird little monsters

No one really cares enough about Australia to make accurate jokes, bro. Your very existence and rabid following of American politics is humorous enough.

anyone that tries to make jokes about it clearly does

and lol at thinking australians care what americans think about anything ever

i just like watching you guys spaz out and pretend people are hitler tbh

How did it end in Trump then? Checkmate mayo.

hes a old man and still better than anything anyone else had to offer

Ah look out, this chicken head trying to educate us on this shit. Motherfucker we saw those posts.

Vainly obsessing about muscles is pretty gay, bro.

"meme creator" has got to be one of the most profoundly ignorant things I've ever read.

I never knew that picture of hitler I put bold text over was art. You can thank me later, society.

They're meme artisans.

damn, somewhere out there that's probably someone's professional title

This is going to work about as well as that guy killing the Trump frog in his comic.

Imagine being so up yourself that you wrote this article.

its not even real memes lol its just me_irl or deepfriedmemes level

where its just dumb kids copying each other

I think that the memes are sort of great. It actually builds the message in the song, doesn't it? That its one big fucking distraction while ignoring the darker aspects of the society? Its sort of brilliant how people have reacted making the message of the song clearer as people dismiss it.

I just want to take a minute to act like I'm 12 (just turned 13 btw) and note that the author's name is Mufson.

cue 1 million vice slaughtering respectable journalism memes

It was quite noble of him to highlight all the black on black violence in society. Signed, whitey.

Vice... is utter fucking garbage.

You'd think that having swam in the warm seas of piss that are the meme tides of the internet, Vox, Vice et al would understand how memes are born.

Every meme is a satire or parody of some other thing, often times another meme. Of COURSE "This is America" is going to get memed. It's basically screaming out for it, demanding it, taunting people to do it. Then, as is the way of things, those memes will be metamemed (Vice already shows someone making a meme about how it feels with TIA is being memed, so we're already to the second layer of meta) and so on until that entire genetic meme tree gets stale and people move on.

I'd make a comment about how incredi-shitty these 2nd semester communications drop-outs are at their so-called jobs, but that is a meme that has been done to death.
