I was scrolling on Lemmy and I saw at least 5 Trump mug shot posts. It’s just annoying at this point.
We need to stop memes about Trunp.

Owen Wilson and Ben Stiller mixed their DNA? Dayum he’s the Ken that Barbie movie should’ve used.

You know what I’m gonna start posting about Trump even harder
Also just plain no. Americans have been waiting for this for the past few years and it’s fucking cathartic

cathartic
Understandable, but personally, I really hate it.
What I really looked forward to after Trump’s pathetic election loss in 2020 was being able to look at reddit without 2/3 of the posts being Trump this, Trump that, trump trump trump.
I was super disappointed. While the page wasn’t all-trump-all-the-time anymore, I’d still see 1-2 Trump posts per page. That continues to this day on Lemmy :(
I want to read about good and interesting things here, not just be part of feeding a monster’s ego.

I get not wanting to see it everywhere but you also have to understand that this is really world news. This is a central figure in American politics that is actually going to trial for an attempt to overthrow American democracy.
This is a historical moment that will probably be talk about for decades regardless of which direction it goes.

Even though I hate giving him free advertising, the more it’s memed the faster it’ll die

Trump is a bottomless well. He wakes up every morning and thinks to himself, “Nothing is wrong. Everything I do is tremendously smart.”

It’s been around for only a couple days, it’ll die down soon enough.

If you want to have a meaningful conversation that might result in this changing, you will have to do that in each of the groups you subscribe to. Posting in mildlyinfuriating isn't going to stop memes elsewhere.

Instead let’s meme about this thing I found in the toilet after I pooped. I’m pretty sure it’s not poop because I don’t remember eating a live lizard. Also I have this new fear of toilet monsters and I’m in my forties.

It would still be a better president than Trump

Extreme solution: Just start blocking everyone who posts a Trump post.
amio@kbin.social 2 years ago
They're tricky but not impossible to block on kbin, but it's harder to deal with the bandwagon overflow into unrelated communities.
The idea of posting to any one of several political meme communities just doesn't occur to some people. Apparently "everything is political...

That’s the left lunatic fringe for you. They have never stopped talking about Trump since he lost the election. From daily CNN and MSNBC news reports to every late night talk show. They are completely obsessed with the guy and more than anyone else have kept his name in the news and kept his popularity up.
Dkarma@lemmy.world 2 years ago
It’s probably all the crimes he keeps committing that keeps everyone talking about him.
ZagamTheVile@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Agree. They’re taking up space that could be used to post more about reddit.
Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 2 years ago
We should repost reddit posts about Trump, just to REALLY piss off the resident curmudgeons 😁

Add Mushy to the mix and you’ve got a trifecta!
