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.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

me when people say i'm not allowed to exist in a leftist space unless i've read all of these five books on theory cover to cover
As someone who has read those 5 books, and the next 5, and the next 5 and so on, those people never go away. There's always 5 more books. I still recommend those books but in my experience they're almost always in-group signalling and not coming up with a new synthesis of the material as understood through their own unique experiences as a worker. Actually those people will be the first to tell you that experience doesn't matter its actually their experience reading books that matters. If you haven't read them and agree, then that's fine; if you have read them and disagree then you haven't read them good enough, or read these other books for the appropriate context.
"The traditions of dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the minds of the living." is as true for the left as it is any other tradition.
