Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

MODERATORS
Idk, if a meme convinces someone to start smoking, they probably would get into it regardless.
Memes that depict it positively are a subtle way to normalize the behavior.
True, but so does seeing it on the street. That's just cohabitation with other humans.
No need to have that glorified on the internet though :)
At least IRL, you're reminded by the reality that they make the entire surrounding area smell like absolute shit.
Aren't you convinced yet?
As a one time thing, sure. But when they start seeing it several times a day, it makes it seem normal. It maybe adds to their curiosity so they end up trying it.
Big "I just sold them the drugs, I didnt make them use it" energy right here.
That's a hell of a leap to conclusions, lol
