Well, I don't know OP, so maybe.
But the meme he posted is about a generation's trauma and its dark consequences.
Totally belongs in a serious meme- or society-community, but seeing it filed under "funny" really annoys me.
I'm gonna need you to edit that "he" to a "Her", "They", or "It", in accordance with @Speedforce@multiverse.soulism.net's pronouns, which you can find by clicking on Her profile.
Well, it's not a "wholesome memes" community. I get your point insofar as cynical humor can be frustrating at times.
Cynical! Thank you, that was the word I have been looking for the whole time!
But I still think that posting the meme to this funny community reduces it to an actual joke.
Placing it under c/memes or so would still preserve its cynical form while much less affecting its serious core premise.
