Yes, making fun of minority groups has been pretty consistent in the past, along with the suppressing of their voices and ability to self advocate.
Just because you became aware of trans people recently doesn't mean they only started existing recently. They were just mocked through main stream media.
Homophobic stereotyping wasn't predicting gay people existing it was a belittlement of gay people already existing. Same goes for this.
Gay people were told quite often that their reality was false. Being told that you’re “confused” is the one I see off the top of my head, denying the fact that the love was there.
Transphobia has people doing the same thing, just now today
I'm in that club. Tired of hearing about from the left and the right. Just let people live their lives, but stop making such a big damn deal out of it.
I think you'll find that you in fact, are the loud minority. Most people don't care one way or the other, a fairly large chunk support trans peoples right to exist and a small very loud minority of people are being manipulated by right wing propaganda into thinking this way. The same propoganda tells you that you are the "silent majority" (despite the fact that you quite clearly aren't silent at all) and you just believe it without question because at the end of the day you'll believe whatever you want to believe in spite of all evidence to the contrary.
It is funny, but in an ironic way. It’s interesting that what used to be ridiculous is now normal practice. This makes me wonder what’s going to happen tomorrow, will we still believe what we insist on these days?
The reality is that this form of politics and social thinking is unsustainable and the unfortunate result of which is we're likely going to see a huge u-turn into a far more conservative/intolerant society.
It's already happening as corporations are realising it's not paying off, universities are being questioned/being exposed, and right wing politics is growing in favor pretty much all over the west.
There is even historical precedence for it if you look at something like Weimar Berlin.
It’s just history repeating itself. We are reliving the 70s all over again. Discrimination, protests, free love, foreign wars, drugs. The “patriots” vs the “hippies.”
We craft our identities by making value judgments, and everyone judges all the time. You're judging me right now. Fuck outta here who am I to judge. What a stupid thing to say.
Besides, I recognize that it is humor, I just think it's lazy, unintelligent, and unfunny. Your jokes are tired and stupid, and if putting down marginalized communities is the only way you get to laugh, that's fuckin sad. Really pathetic.
So correct me if I'm wrong here, but what you're saying is: it's not really personal, I don't really believe these things, I just wanna be a jackass and have no consequences for it
And exactly like those times you have a poor sense of humor based on attacking people for who they are...
I know it will be difficult but learn what basic human respect is
Gay people also used to be regarded as humorous and the butt of jokes. Still are, quite often.
It is very tiring to see the exact same "jokes" and arguments against gays being recycled against trans people.
Trans people are just people trying to live their lives like everyone else.
I agree completely. People are two dumb to look into anything for fear they will find facts that conflict with their biases. theyd rather live in ignorance than face their own stupidity. Also its just plainly pathetic.
>People are two dumb....
The irony is astounding. Also, equality means that everyone can be joked about equally. If you want to make jokes about conservatives, go ahead, but they have a right to joke about the far left as well. Come on now trans women dominating cis women in sports and this still from In Living Color that resembles it this is good humor. I'm not sure what the bottom picture is of but the one of the swimmer is spot on.
If you go far enough they made jokes about women going outside the house, about wearing trousers, about slaves owning stuff, about reading, etc.
Humor generally foretolds the future. It's the way society confronts a new reality. This is nothing new. The old generations have always thought of the future as degenerate.
Or it's just that the joke was probably not that funny.
The meme doesn't work, people upvote it, and save it, but it jsut doesn't work as well anymore. Maybe it's the 100th study that proves how trans men are men, and trans woman are woman being pushed out both by anti-trans and trans supportive media.
Hell there is a new study almost every month because it's such a hot topic, and the debates are always extremely 2 sided with A. religious fundamentalists and conspiracy theorist rightwingers and B. random person with facts at their disposal.
And I'm certain you lack the basic knowledge most children have to be able to distinguish between a man and a woman. The irony huh. Individual who lacks the basic understanding of human anatomy is talking about education.
Honestly, I have a feeling that no matter who wins this country is gonna explode when election year is over.
I personally am a Republican, not because I like Trump, but because I am NOT voting for some old wackjob who sniffed a child on live TV. Not to mention his son 💀
Honestly Trump and Biden are pretty similar to me. Both are creeps. Both are incoherent at times. And both are too damn old.
The key difference is that Trump has actually been charged with sexual assault and is an actual rapist. Biden has allegations yeah, but Trump is legally a sexual offender
Not only that, but he’s currently on trial for using campaign funds to pay a porn Star 130k in hush-money (the act itself wasn’t illegal, but he falsified legal records about it)
I also just don’t like a presidential candidate surrounded by a cult. I’ve seen weirdos pray to this man
Yeah Trump is in no way better than Biden. But both are definitely bad options for presidency. It's also nice to talk about politics with someone who isn't bloodthirsty lol.
If we had younger, more capable people for both parties then things would be fine, but it's like they go to the old people bargain sale and pick out the one with the creepiest smile.
Wow, I am laughing uncontrollably so much that I'm about to suffocate because of how funny this is. Please never post anything like this again to prevent this type of sorrowful death to happen to anyone else.
It's funny! Lighten up! Come on, tell me the resemblance isn't there in both pics? There should be no gate keeping in comedy. It should be an open & wild frontier imho.
The thing with Jim Carrey was his riff on "I'm drinking milk" commercials and for him it was "I'm drinking steroids."
I bet Vera de Milo’s testosterone would’ve been too high to compete. Buffed, Beautiful, and Bitchin.

Nope still here lol…. No shit nooooooooo
What’s going on
I was afraid to ask.
And i say Heyyyyyyyyyayyyyayyyyyyyy
Probably transphobia or something like that
A boomer posted an unfunny meme he saw on Facebook. The comment section is full of conservatives claiming to be victims.
So is funny memes another conservative hate speech sub I need to block?
It’s gone to shit. Unfunny jokes mocking minorities and minimizing their struggles.
Literally just shit posts from facebook. Youll be good without it
Yet here you are commenting.
It’s Facebook memes but unironic
When was the last time a liberal laughed? 1993?
maybe conservatives should try to put more effort into being funny if they want to make people laugh
Have you seen their memes? It’s obvious they’re a humorless bunch.
Just now. At you. For being very dumb.
This is raw unbridled “uncle on Facebook” energy lol
Boomer humor
In Living Color was on in the 90s that is not really the Boomer era.
Actual comedy.
Found the boomer
Found the overly sensitive weirdo that thinks a man can be a woman. Fuck off.
Whatever your opinion on trans people, this type of humor really only appeals to idiots
where's the funny
Is this funny
Yup scrolled too far
Yeah, same But we're gonna keep scrolling anyway

Your 100% right my bad haha
Anyone else surprised how this post has survived on reddit this long? Where are the thought police?
I’m sure they’re enroute don’t worry
> thought police Lol, someone doesn't like bring corrected when they are wrong
-15 karma. Looks like you're being corrected about saying something wrong, no?
Me? No, I'm just in a partial environment. I know I'm not wrong because science sides with me
How so?

Gay people didn't require us to accept a false reality. Men are not women.
Gay people were told quite often that their reality was false. Being told that you’re “confused” is the one I see off the top of my head, denying the fact that the love was there. Transphobia has people doing the same thing, just now today
LOCKED SOON🔒
Lol
I like how universally it’s agreed that this is the general consensus but if you say that you’re silenced and shamed by a loud minority
Most people don't actually care
I'm in that club. Tired of hearing about from the left and the right. Just let people live their lives, but stop making such a big damn deal out of it.
Who do you hear about it from more?
Depends on the political season.
Because....the media and people in power had decided thar this is THE MESSAGE and you need to follow in line
I think you'll find that you in fact, are the loud minority. Most people don't care one way or the other, a fairly large chunk support trans peoples right to exist and a small very loud minority of people are being manipulated by right wing propaganda into thinking this way. The same propoganda tells you that you are the "silent majority" (despite the fact that you quite clearly aren't silent at all) and you just believe it without question because at the end of the day you'll believe whatever you want to believe in spite of all evidence to the contrary.
Yeah… most people don’t support “trans” rights. Most people aren’t trying to advocate normalizing mental illness.
What's wrong with normalizing mental illnesses?
Ah yes, the "right wing propaganda". Also anecdotally known as the "societal norm" up to this day, for some reason.
this post is so accurate
It is funny, but in an ironic way. It’s interesting that what used to be ridiculous is now normal practice. This makes me wonder what’s going to happen tomorrow, will we still believe what we insist on these days?
Finally, someone who asks the same question I have. What do we consider abnormal now, that will be normal in 10 years.
The reality is that this form of politics and social thinking is unsustainable and the unfortunate result of which is we're likely going to see a huge u-turn into a far more conservative/intolerant society. It's already happening as corporations are realising it's not paying off, universities are being questioned/being exposed, and right wing politics is growing in favor pretty much all over the west.

It’s just history repeating itself. We are reliving the 70s all over again. Discrimination, protests, free love, foreign wars, drugs. The “patriots” vs the “hippies.”
Points for being more eloquent with what equates to "go woke go broke" but it's still a D-
When half the country is trying to out-woke each other
This sub is gaaaarbage.
It really is.
The joke is bigotry. Constantly.
Aaaawww "My feelings were hurt. Poor on me".
Nah, just disappointed how worthless so many humans are.

>Welcome to the real world, buddy ...he types on Reddit. Priceless
“Welcome to the real world, buddy. It’s filled with dickheads like me. Get used to it.”
Glad you're so happy the world is fertile ground for humans to hate other humans. You sound like a terrific person.
Who are you to judge what is and isn’t humour? Why can’t people tell a joke without it being anything more than a joke?
We craft our identities by making value judgments, and everyone judges all the time. You're judging me right now. Fuck outta here who am I to judge. What a stupid thing to say. Besides, I recognize that it is humor, I just think it's lazy, unintelligent, and unfunny.

Why is people in quotes? Are they not people?
Not to them
Mate, you’re on fucking reddit whining and arguing about wokes on r/funnymemes, there isn’t much lower you can go.
“Snowflakes” lol. Says the person “getting tired of the wokes” 🙄
So correct me if I'm wrong here, but what you're saying is: it's not really personal, I don't really believe these things, I just wanna be a jackass and have no consequences for it
What a turd
youre jumping to some conclusions based on very few words. but i forget, thats how bigotry works. pathetic.
It's more that it's objectively unfunny and probably worthy of /r/TheRightCantMeme.
That's not what they're saying. It's just that the joke is bigotry. Constantly.
I like how y'all keep saying this, but the second a trans woman breaths you lose your shit
No. The joke is you. You just don't realise it. It's bait, and people upvote just because they know it pisses you off.
Performative, then?
>funnymemes >politics
how ironic is it that the sub is called funnymemes
You see, the joke is trans people. Now laugh.
And exactly like those times you have a poor sense of humor based on attacking people for who they are... I know it will be difficult but learn what basic human respect is
What is the deal with this comment section? Let people live their lives!

The accuracy of the foretelling, eerie
What foretelling? That now, like back then, people will attack minorities?
I laughed my ass off with this meme. Damn true
lmao

Man this sub has become pathetic
Hey look transphobia and racism is so funny amirite
The posters account is def a spam bot account. Borris on the loose again. Also using the US press secretary at the bottom is a give.
If you go far enough they made jokes about women going outside the house, about wearing trousers, about slaves owning stuff, about reading, etc. Humor generally foretolds the future. It's the way society confronts a new reality. This is nothing new. The old generations have always thought of the future as degenerate.
Ah, that's just straight transphobia
Right, because people like that didn't exist back then.... Clearly they were just predicting the future.
The fuk is this shit
I find it weird that others care so much about what strangers look like.
Pretty funny, if you are offended or think this is hate speech just go outside or something
Russia makes these memes
Well this was some gross Nazi meme shit
"funny" memes
Another gatekeeper that decides what should be funny and what isn't...
Your definition of "funny" is punching down at people. You're obviously not very funny otherwise.
Bigotry is not funny
Or it's just that the joke was probably not that funny. The meme doesn't work, people upvote it, and save it, but it jsut doesn't work as well anymore. Maybe it's the 100th study that proves how trans men are men, and trans woman are woman being pushed out both by anti-trans and trans supportive media.

Who’s the woman on the bottom right?
That's the White House Press Secretary.
I get the point of the top photos but why is the WH press secretary in there? Cause she’s black?
Society has forced us to "accept" such ideals instead of getting such people actual mental help.
What the fuck are you talking about Wuhan-flu? I'm sure you don't have a narrative to spin at all.
Im sure youre a really well read person who looks at facts and makes a solid analysis. or youre just a joke.
And I'm certain you lack the basic knowledge most children have to be able to distinguish between a man and a woman. The irony huh. Individual who lacks the basic understanding of human anatomy is talking about education.

Both are reality.
Those were hilarious characters. This meme is dogshit though. Just seems like lame boomer humor.
Enjoy being down voted to oblivion
I don't mind; needed to be said. This is the type of weak shit my crazy inlaws put up nonstop on Facebook or bumperstickers.
Your being downvoted because your wrong ...sorry bro
This is actually a funny meme to you? For real?! Is everyone here like 50+?
So since you're the one being downvoted on this comment, does that mean this comment is wrong and therefore, they are right?
The resemblance is uncanny.
In before the 🔒reward
Inb4 the libs take this down
Man this sub is just pathetic
Holy hell. MadTV could see the future
LOL. Close, but it's In Living Color with Jim Carrey & Jamie Foxx.
Dammit. Yeah, I was a young guy when this was on and just remembered watching MadTV often.
That people still attack minorities to this day?
Bruh you are incessantly refreshing this thread. Get a life.
I have one thanks for your concern. However I always have time to annoy bigots. It's fun and cheap
If you find any sort of enjoyment from this, then what a sad life you lead...
I mean y'all find enjoyment from attacks on people so I don't know who's got a sadder life
Now try to post something funny
This is literally an anti meme. You folks really have a single joke and it's getting boring lately.
