Facebook memes you hate

[smittykins]

"We bullied our classmate for three years until he finally snapped and shot up the school. 

Now we want to ban guns."

[ILoveJellybeans]

1. Anything that says "99% wont share" or "like and share if you...". Especially if it is a picture of a disabled person that says "people are ashamed of me and think I am ugly" or "its his birthday, I bet he wont even get one like", because most of them are stolen without the person's consent. Also especially if it says "She is beautiful despite being disabled, share if you agree" because it implies that being disabled is a thing you need to overcome to be beautiful.

2. Anything from Britain First. No there is no war on Christmas/Easter and no company is banning people from wearing poppies in November. 99% of people who claim that we should be helping the homeless before refugees have never so much as bought a coffee for a homeless person. No, its not racist to fly the England flag or say youre proud to be British, its just such a shame that the white supremacists hide their racism behind phony patriotism and use those symbols instead of use a swastika or white robes that already mean "I am racist". Facebook is not banning pictures of flags, Nativity scenes or bacon sandwiches, its just a way to get people to share.

3. I actually witnessed the other day, a British person share a pro gun meme about how these dictators took the guns off citizens....but here in the UK, we banned guns and our government didn't turn into a dictatorship or start rounding people up in concentration camps. Its just cherry picking.

4. Pro spanking memes about how "I got the shit beat out of me with a belt when I was a kid and I turned out ok", well, no, you didn't if you think that's acceptable to do to a kid. Also any child shaming memes in general, its not ok to humiliate your child by sharing their punishment on the internet, like the video of the dad destroying his kid's laptop, or making the child stand in public holding up a sign.

5. As it is April now, 99% of autism awareness stuff that is made by neurotypicals is shit. Most autistic adults hate light it up blue, puzzle pieces and think that the majority of autism related memes (unless we made them) are ableist and make out that autism is a horrible tragedy and that we are burdens to society/our poor long suffering woe is me parents.

6. Conspiracy nonsense. No, there is no secret cure for cancer that the government is hiding-weed doesn't cure cancer (it has some legit medical uses and I think it should be legal but isn't some sort of miracle wonder drug), frozen lemons don't cure cancer (especially not by alkalizing the body, lemon juice is an acid and the body maintains its own blood pH by itself or you would die), cancer is not a fungus etc. The world is not like America, here in the UK all healthcare is paid for by taxes and free at the point of use (so a cheaper, quicker cure will save money) and yet still people share this shit. Also vaccinate your kids. Not everything is a false flag, some people are bad and decide to kill others. Chemtrails are not real. Everything is chemicals. Tabloids and conspiracy sites like Natural News are not a good source of health information, the majority of the "THIS FOOD WILL GIVE YOU CANCER" scares are from scientific papers that say "when you eat more than 5 servings of X a week it increases your risk of one specific kind of cancer from 0.02% to 0.03%", but they would have you think that one bite will kill you.

7. Not interested in your essential oils, cosmetics or whatever youre selling. No, I do not want to like and share your page. No I don't want to vote for your baby in a competition. Please do not tag me or message me to ask me about it. Go away.

8. Those annoying quizzes. You don't have to share everything to Facebook. I don't care what animal you would be, or which six friends would do which role in whatever event, or what your name means (its randomly generated anyway). Especially if you spend a full hour doing lots of them and sharing each one. The only reason I am not unfollowing you is that you sometimes post pictures of your dog/cat/baby and it is cute.

9. Any photo shared of a person that claims they are a sex offender or a notorious criminal released from prison with a new identity. If its wrong, you could be ruining some innocent person's life.

10. Anything pro Trump.

My Mum shared a picture of a Down Syndrome child with the caption 'like and share to wish me a happy birthday'. I'm worried now if that meme was stolen without the child and his parents' consent. My mother used to work with special needs children so I understand why she wants to share something nice about disabilities. 

On the same topic, I had a friend in university who was a postgraduate student who shared a post in 2010 saying 'special needs kids aren't gross, they just want to be understood'. What adult thinks children with various mental differences are 'gross'? I can understand some schoolkids might think they're handicapped peers are odd and therefore 'gross' but adults shouldn't be posting memes suggesting ideas like that. The same friend posted an anti-bullying meme but I thought adults don't post these schoolkid memes?

"Apparently, the Santa Fe shooter can't get the death penalty because teenagers can't tell right from wrong, but we're supposed to listen to them about changing our Constitution."

[smittykins]

"Liberals throw a hissy fit when a baker refuses services, but jump for joy when a restaurant does the same thing."

[smittykins]

Any meme showing a photo of a full refrigerator on the left and an almost-empty one on the right, saying that the former belongs to someone on welfare/SNAP, and the latter “a hard-working person living paycheck to paycheck.”

1. Pro-spanking

1a.  “When I misbehaved, I didn’t have my iPhone taken away or get grounded from my XBOX.  I got my ass beat!”(Bitch, please.  The main reason you didn’t have them taken away is because THEY DIDN’T EXIST.)

 

 Yes, I see where people can have the mentality of "I was spanked and it did me good" even though I don't completely agree, but when they mock anti-spankers by saying "My parents beat my butt like there was no tomorrow", well, sorry, that's extreme.

[ADoyle90815]

One reason I hate those quizzes is that it's a good way to get your Facebook account hacked, where the hackers post porn or some ad using your profile. Even then, people who have been hacked that way still haven't learned, so those who continuously post those quizzes get unfollowed.

"Instead of arming teachers with guns, how about arming parents with belts and switches? It worked for our generation!"

[smittykins]

Over a caricature of Obama:

”I tried to destroy the country.  But Trump won the election and the libs are still crying.  And my wife is a man.”

[smittykins]

“I used to have ADHD, but I healed quick when my dad took his belt off.”

(When someone pointed out that this insulted those who actually have ADHD, the response was “Doesn’t exist.  The pill-rollers invented it.”)

“Lord, please don’t let Trump say coffee is good.  The Democrats will ban it and I’ll die.”

[smittykins]

Picture of Greta Thunberg:  “My generation will change the world!”

Picture of soldier:  “Your generation can’t work a 40-hour week, can’t decide if you’re a boy, girl, or “other,” and can’t eat meat without crying.  Wake up!”

[Seahorse Wrangler]

Any meme which ends "And let that sink in".

[smittykins]

“I’ve never blocked/unfriended anyone because their opinion is different from mine.  Betcha can’t share this status.”

Well, sorry, but saying Hillary Clinton should be put to death for Benghazi is a dealbreaker for me.

(Actually, any “betcha can’t share this status” meme qualifies.)

Resurrecting this thread so that I don’t spam the Political Memes topic with, well, non-political memes.(I forgot this thread existed…and I started it! )

”Hate” would probably be too strong a word, but the one showing a cabin in a rural wooded area with “Would you live here?”

Yes, it’s beautiful.  But I’m a practical person, and I’d rather not have to drive an hour or more to get groceries, or go to the doctor, or hope there’s reliable cell service when I need it, or even 911(I’ve read that certain remote areas still don’t have it, and getting to the nearest hospital in an emergency requires airlifting).

Yes, I’m a Debbie Downer. 😛

Along with that, the similar photo and the “live here for a month with no tv/phone/internet and you get a million dollars, can you do it?”  
 

No. I can’t. Because I have bills and responsibilities, Karen.

Responsibilities, yeah.  I'm not too worried about the bills.  I can make the late payments with the million dollars.  Credit score might take a bit of a hit, but that's not as big of a deal when I've got a million dollars in savings.  

Well, less than that in savings once I pay off student loans and my house/car, but you get the idea.  

[smittykins]

The only thing they forgot is “Jacob is about to turn off Thomas’s electricity for nonpayment.”

[smittykins]

Because apparently, going into anaphylactic shock is “woke” now.
