So can I ask: is it acceptable to edit this screenshot to not include the ableist part (just crop out the whole Avengers part honestly, it’s not funny anyway) and take out the handles of the posters, and repost? Or is that poor form?
Memes are a form of cultural transmission. They're like a type of public art, meant to be freely shared, edited, and otherwise played around with by whoever. It's how memes morph and evolve over time.
All this to say, you can probably go ahead and make the meme yours if you wish.
huh. are we going fast and sloppy or are we being artisans? because i would agree that it's acceptable to remove the ableism, but we'd want to keep the date, right? do we black box it or do we cut out the middle?
