I mean, I get it in a way, but isn’t it a bit of a lost cause kind of a lost cause? Like, does it matter if your dad thinks Walz is satanic because of a meme about couch fucking when the same person also will probably fall for birther conspiracies, ivermectin, flat earth shit?

Weird and couch fucking have nothing on killing thousands with conspiracies and attempting to subvert democracy on the daily. They’re basically all in good fun.

My dad is a lost cause and he will share a bunch of shit with vulnerable media-immunocompromised independents and most of it won’t land, but something like this would. Especially if some of those independents are seeking a return to decorum and decency in their politicians and credibly believe Tim Walz is eagerly engaging in the same kind of name calling Trump is. Especially after news networks have run headlines about how Walz is going to be the MAGA attack dog or whatever. People are primed to believe this shit. Not people like you and me, stupid people that can also vote.

But by all means, enjoy the memes. I know how I sound but I’m also pretty sure I’m right.
