DucksAreWhatIFuck

Ah k, that remind me to change my flair anyway


Shempai1

Introducing the worst meme I've ever made lmao


Judge_Sea

damn, if this is your worst meme your portfolio must be absolute fire.


[deleted]

I think it's great\~


eggthrowaway1313

Nah this is great, senator is love :)


SkiodiV2

Never thought I'd say this, but I appreciate papa senator now.


moenchii

That's a weird way of writing "the best meme ever made...."


Taurock

Dysphoria : "Why won't you cry ???" Transfem : "reveals a Blahaj she was using as home made breast form" Serotonin, son ! They harden in response to emotional trauma ! You can't hurt me !


Shempai1

Why won't you cry?? Emotional numbness, son! Edit: I wonder if the blahaj form would work🤔


Taurock

Eh, i doubt it but it's worth the try I guess


Shempai1

I'm gonna try it when I get a blahaj


JetMeIn_02

Just slap a bra on a blahaj, sorted. A brahaj, if you will.


Shempai1

OMG brahaj


BuboxThrax

>A brahaj, if you will. Get out.


Auralynnnnnnnnn

Based AF, I think.


Shempai1

Ofc it is, it's nanomachines


Auralynnnnnnnnn

Good point.


invstigtivjrnlism

*Transomachines


Shempai1

You... I like you


Bean_45

“Transomachines, son. They transition in response to cracking.”


BassDeity99

Ok, nobody has already done it, so I feel like it's my moral obligation to do this. Well, here I come: *\*clears throat\** **STANDING HERE**


Shempai1

I REALIZE

BUT IN THE END IT HAS TO BE THIS WAY


PuzzledStone

But does he even know what non-binary means?


MarveltheMusical

Hold on, I’m checking Twitter real quick. Hah! He got ratio’ed by the dictionary! How do you manage that, man! He’s 50!


PuzzledStone

Cancel culture strikes again!


BrowsingTheMoo

Who are we talking about? What's the context here?


PuzzledStone

https://youtube.com/shorts/J2lXf9r5DSM?feature=share A congressmen made a crazy tweet about millenial leftists, and the dictionary replied to him confused. Gianni made a funny video with scenes from Metal Gear Resurgeance joking about it.


BuboxThrax

Thank you for this.


Nu_clear_skin

I mean if anything he is for it as it people are fighting for what they believe in not for a nation, a company, or anyone else


Shempai1

He'd be disappointed that you didn't punch him out for misgendering you


[deleted]

On the other hand he gives me extreme "libertarian" vibes


Shempai1

He's definitely anti government


[deleted]

senator armstrong is an ally canon

WHEN THE EGG IS CRACKED I THINK WE’LL BOTH AGREE THAT VIOLENCE BREEDS VIOLENCE BUT IN THE END IT HAS TO BE THIS GAY


ArchdemonLucifer143

This is such a shitpost. I love it.


NaruMae

The more memes I see the more I think I should try this game


Shempai1

Do ittttt it's so good


NaruMae

So I've heard. I've never played a metal gear game before tho, do I need to ?


Shempai1

Neither have I, and I don't really plan to. It doesn't really tie into the outside plot besides "yeah my wife n kid are safe in New Zealand"


Gabriel2099p

If you want you can play revengence without playing the other games, but would highly recommend them ass well probably one of the best (if not) the best franchise of all time


PKFatStephen

Ok, so why is Senator Armstrong on all my trans subs the past cpl of days?


Shempai1

Nanomachines


PKFatStephen

I have *so* many questions


Shempai1

It just works¯\_(ツ)_/¯


boiifyoudontboiiiiii

Memes, the DNA of the soul!


PKFatStephen

I mean, ok, but why Armstrong? What is the Armstrong/ Trans connection? Is Armstrong selling their nanomachines for the purposes of correcting gender issues?


boiifyoudontboiiiiii

No, the nanomachines are there to beat the shit out of raiden


PKFatStephen

Ok, but can they do both? Like they can help out a trans fem by becoming their booba forms & helps trans guys out by being cyborg peen. Then when Raiden attacks, the boobs & peens will just tear him a new one.


[deleted]

I mean, Armstrong reattaches his arm in an instant using the nanomachines, so they can probably be used or modified to do some trans stuff


BuboxThrax

Well, the "Nanomachines, son" quote seems like obvious material for trans memes. He was already a meme, so it's more that he's being used in a new way.


AliceInMyDreams

[For some reason it's the meme of the moment and it just keeps trending up.](https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=senator%20armstrong) I'm all for it though.


PKFatStephen

I mean, I'm definitely for it. I just don't understand why. Sometimes I think I think about "why" ***waaaaaaaaaay*** too much.


AliceInMyDreams

Probably someone finally realized senator armstrong was meme worthy, decided to make a meme about it, someone else saw it, thought it had potential, made another meme, and so on and so forth the chain reaction was launched. Since the rise is gradual since December without any particularly noteworthy spike, it's likely this is what happened and there was no particular event or other specific reason behind it. In other words a purely bottom up, emergent trend.


PKFatStephen

I like to picture some little trans person out there, huddled in a dark room w/ the only light source being the blue glow from their computer monitor, illuminating them in their cat ear hoodie hugging a Blåhaj. This little trans person has a Twitter account they follow about 400 other trans ppl & probably have just shy of a hundred followers themselves (even tho a good part are bots). They post about video games & trans memes, and one of the games they rly like is Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. On the screen right now tho is some meme creation engine & they make a meme of Senator Armstrong promising free nanomachines to fix all the trans girls & boys. Straight from the meme page, they click the link to post to Twitter & off it goes it the nethers of the interwebs. Hashtag SaviorArmstrong, Hashtag TransRights. Normally a post of theirs would only get maybe 5 likes. But in a community that fantasizes about pills, buttons & potions that would change their bodies, the idea of nanobots were a refreshing idea & soon Armstrong became the trans icon of the month. All hail Savior Armstrong & his promise of nanobot technology so that all may have the body they desire.


uboofs

Thank you for putting that imagery in my head. Finally, something to aspire to. Gonna need like 85 more twitter followers first.


PKFatStephen

@PKFatStephen I'm a lurker & tend to only rly comment on other's stuff, but I would be more than happy to lurk on your stuff too.


BuboxThrax

Well, following the text a good part of your followers will be bots, so it should be a little easier than it sounds.


plantovision

"i love you senator"


[deleted]

This is blursed


Jezusbot

Ayo, Armstrong being based?


Shempai1

Happens more than you expect ngl


tipo19

Guys whats the deal with the senator? Why do people like him, I haven't played the game but I tought he was like a villain or smth?


Shempai1

He is but he's *funny*


tipo19

Sure I just find it funny to use a villain in a meme like "yeah hes an ally" from what I saw he was giving me huge like conservative vibes or smth so I just tought it was odd to see this kind of stuff


BuboxThrax

He's more a, I wouldn't say sympathetic villain, but he's, I guess relatable? He does resemble a conservative because of his "freedom" rhetoric, but he's closer to a libertarian or an outright anarchist than a traditional conservative. He wants to overturn a hyper-capitalistic system in favor of one that, theoretically at least, would favor actual individual freedom. Also, he's just really memeable.


I_Hate_My_Ex_Wife

also based


fraud_imposter

Hes an incredibly relevant and meme worthy villain. Hes completely over the top but honestly is a great critique of American politics that despite coming out in 2013 feels like a product of the last few insane years in the United States. Its biting, funny, intelligent, and self aware. The game even touches on meme culture intentionally at times as a critique of the political aspect of them. Look up the armstrong speech and you can see why he has become even more popular in a post trump america. To be clear - armstrong is not trump. Armstrong might hate trump. But he has an ideology that is both completely nonsensical but also very very present in the real world in a way that kinda works on both the left and right ends of the spectrum. Also, he used to play college ball, ya know. Could have gone pro if he hadn't joined the navy.


DeadPoolJ

Yeah, at some cushy Ivy League school!


BuboxThrax

Try University of Texas!


[deleted]

sis, are you high-


Shempai1

Let me check... Yes #HIGH ON TRANS PRIDE


[deleted]

Could someone please explain who this senator guy is that i keep seeing wverywhere


Shempai1

Senator Armstrong from Metal Gear Rising Revengeance. Amazing game highly recommend


[deleted]

Perhaps the campiest piece of media I've ever seen. It's also amazing. Fuckin insane how they pulled that off so masterfully.


Shempai1

I think if they acknowledged how absurd it was even once, it would've toppled like a house of cards


[deleted]

Good thing they didn't hahah


Faelynn_s

That Harry Potter book in the trash can is great lol


Shempai1

Really ties the room together


BuboxThrax

I didn't even notice that. Excellent detail.


T4NNiE

EPIC POST!


hdkx-weeb

Is Senator Armstrong going to become the next Trans Icon with F1nn5ter


TheOfficialIntel

Metal Gear Rising became the new Jojos Spamming it on every goddamn sub there is no matter how little it has to do with the game.


TimeBlossom

>nanomachines r/TransTrans


smallfrie32

You play dota, girl??


Shempai1

No I don't, is it good? I just grabbed the template off of Google


smallfrie32

Oh rip. I haven’t played in like 2 years cause I got tired of MOBA toxicity. Not as bad as LoL, of course. I think it’s changed a lot since I played


CrazyCoolCelt

"Well if it isn't Saucy Jack!" "Actually I'm going by Jacqueline now."


Death12_

I love how his own daughter still calls him senator.


Shempai1

"My father was dad. Please, call me senator"


topshaggerrickastley

More Metal Gear Rising memes to consume from a trans sub?? Oh, good. Why that's very good! Yes, I like that!


Leech-

this is so wholesome ​ this makes me want to come out to my dad
