      Maybe I’m missing something, but what part of this is fascist propaganda? It looks like a 4chan meme, but of there’s any fascist dogwhistles in there they’re going right over my head

        The meme is a parody of ahistorical fascist drivel.

        It generally goes hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, weak men create hard times.

          Ah I see. Weird how they manage to put a fascist message in an otherwise funny meme about chicken nuggies. It really is a dogwhistle then. Unless you know the material it references, it’s just a funny meme.

            Frenworld was one of the bigger cutsey fascist communities on reddit, coming from 4chan. Any time you see “fren” Memes it’s a pretty glaring red flag

            Maybe Poe’s law, but seems more like satire to me, poking fun at the theorey. The joke only really works if you know it, doesn’t seem like it was hiding to me. I don’t know.

      First: Fuck fascists.

      This is a honest question, really: are you not validating cultural appropriation?

          Ohhhh sorry, I was half asleep when I made that comment and missed the dogwhistle, this is in fact fash propaganda. I originally thought your problem with this was the use of pepe. Sorry for the confusion 🥴
