    This is the ultimate way to consume content. Firehose stays off, just let your younger friends share the best stuff.

    I’m v online but I’ve refused to join TikTok lol. All I see is what my girlfriend sends me and what ends up being reposted on twitter/IG. I’m 28 and she’s 29.

  5. I don't the feel the need to use it because a ton of TikTok stuff gets reposted on twitter/IG anyway... then a ton of twitter/IG stuff gets reposted on reddit, on here, and on other forums. The online cycle of life

    Dumb and short sighted, he was a realistic and likable portrayal of a metalhead kid in the 80's.

    Things have changed.

    This ... uh... clearly is a joke and a parody of this campaign?

    It's very obviously parody, even without knowing the original campaign

    I apologize to everyone I have offended for posting a stupid picture on a forum. I will be taking some time to reflect on all the poor choices that I have made.
     
  12. I get that it's a parody but I don't understand what exactly it's making fun of? The original campaign came about from very legitimate concerns

    if anything the new image deserves to be derided for making light of cultural appropriation, which is what the original campaign was about

    Nah, that meme is spot-on. It's not making fun of cultural appropriation, it's making fun of people who think "metalheads" or "gamers" or any other subculture are marginalized on the same level as actual minoritized groups.

    Incel white boys with nothing to actually feel oppressed about can't blame their status as social outcasts on their race, gender, sexuality, etc. so they blame it on whatever interest they have. They use those communities as surrogate identities for white male grievance. That's why they get so pissed off when women or BIPOC folk try to enter their communities, because they believe the oppression experience of being an angry white dude is crucial to engage in their subculture, so they see it as stolen valor. Sadly, this commitment to painting oneself as an outcast becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, because if these dudes just showered and stop being fucking weird to women and/or POC, they'd probably have friends and get laid and stop being so angry.

    ^ makes sense. I didn't know if I was supposed to take the meme at face value or not
