People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

It wasn't even "uwu" meme

It was the "OwO what's this?" Meme. Which makes it even weirder/funnier/messed up

What's the difference? ELIA5 please, I don't know if I have time to go down this rabbit hole myself.

One is a generic emoticon, while "OwO what's this?" is an (in)famous meme from the furry fandom

I still don't understand, but I learned one thing, when a meme seems to do not have a meaning, it's fascists crap.

Those guys always miss humor totally.

Same difference. It's used interchangeably.

eh, not really.

one is more a "uwu sowwy" the other is surprised/shocked/curious expression
