I’d like to thank everyone for my most upvoted post on lemmy ever. Not only have you upvoted it to the top for like 2 days you commented the shit out of it. I’d like to take this opportunity to say fuck the mods of this instance. This was my second post coming off a 30 day ban and I want to say these fucking mods have been nothing but bitches. I’ve never been more attacked on any other instance, subreddit, forum, etc. then I have been in this fucking instance. Not only have I been attacked I’ve been told my memes arent memey enough again and again.

I’ll be honest, I do not know how to make a meme but I keep posting just to piss in these mods cheerios.

Thanks lemmy.world/politicalmemes for being the worst community I’ve ever been a part of.

    Revolutions don’t happen because there’s too much suffering

    That’s because the people in charge (historically speaking) have made sure that not enough universal suffering happens to create a revolution. This administration is a new kind of special, and I wouldn’t count it out.

      Bruh, I can point you to some very universally-suffering societies, both modern and historical, which did not provoke revolutions; and every revolution I can think of was very far from universally suffering, compared to prior or later conditions.

      Suffering is only marginally related to revolution, at best.

        I’ll make a note that you are an expert in revolutions and move on with my life.

        Edit: just to be clear, not that I really mind downvotes but I’m not being sarcastic and I’m not going toe to toe with somebody who is well versed in something that I am not I am clearly out of my depth. And I have not downloaded OP.

          There are quite a number of revolutions in history, which is my field, yes.
