Someone mind explaining the Nascar(?)/unionization connection? I’ve been seeing it a fair bit and I missed the context
Just a recent meme trend. However, I will note Nascar has union attempts deep in its earlier days that were even supported by Jimmy Hoffa.
Thanks for the clarification, I appreciate you taking the time! :)
I think it’s also partially about taking something that can be associated with … rednecks/middle America/conservatives I guess, and using it as a vehicle to try to reset people’s initial reactions against stuff that would be in their interest (unions for example). It doesn’t seem like it’s a concerted effort to actually reach that group, so right now it’s leftist memes for leftists but the potential for puncturing someone’s insular bubble Via familiar substrate for the message has interesting potential!
Puncturing someone’s insular bubble via a familiar substrate is exactly what I’m trying to achieve with Nascar memes. Thanks for puttng that into words. My main goal is to make memes leftists can share with their redneck/ middle america coworkwrs who are extremely disenfranchised by the corporate world and dont know where to direct their angst.
As a man who grew up with one foot firmly planted in yeehaw and the other in yuppie, I think this is brilliant!
Just the other day I had my year in review . My couch went over how much I improved and the great job I’m doing and for all that I get a raise for $0 . Meanwhile my rent , car insurance and grocery bill has increased alot . Hopefully one of the jobs I applied for today get back to me soon .
To be fair, i don’t think your couch is in a position to be giving out raises
You never know, it could be one of those rising recliners!
A great comeback, thank you.
Lol typo
I’m glad that you didn’t edit it, that’s hilarious.
Good luck. You can do it.
Superbly shitty meme, wow
Someone’s salty they didn’t unionize.
I’m a student; Unions are great; the meme is just shit
Thanks, made it while I was pooping
So that’s the key to making great memes.
How would you improve it?
I mean it’s a boomer/genx post, it’s technically a meme from the format (image with impact font). But the focus is on what it’s saying, there’s no joke to it.
Add any humor at all to improve it.
