Welcome to General Memes

Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CruelWe’re here for laughs, not fights.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it light — argue in the comments, not with insults

Rule 2: No Forbidden FormatsNot every image deserves immortality on the memmlefield. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (seriously, don’t ruin the fun)
  • NSFW memes must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can take care of it.

Otherwise consider this your call to duty. Get posting or laughing. Up to you

Why are burgerlanders so offended/afraid of people not speaking the only language they know?

[–] ajmaxwell@lemmy.world 80 points 1 month ago (5 children)

Because they usually talk shit toward people who don't speak English, so they assume everyone around them speaking a different language is doing the same.

I used to work in a spa, doing nails, and the amount of times I heard white women tell me in ‘hushed’ tones that they liked coming to a place where the workers spoke English because they ‘couldn’t tell if the girls working at those other places were talking about them when they spoke another language’ was disgusting.

American ‘exceptionalism’ is anything but.

Loudly talk about them in English then.
