Normies can be reached and memes help. I’ve already gotten some “maybe we were too auick to judge China” reactions when I point out they execute child molesters.

    Small nitpick with your comment: do you have reason to believe HeiligerBimBam is a man, or otherwise ok with being referred to as “sir”? Because if not, in the interest of keeping this space safe and comfortable for people who aren’t men, it would be better practice not to use language that assumes the person you’re talking to is male.

    Sorry, I know this might not feel like the place for this nitpick, this thread is, after all, a meme thread, and calling someone “sir” is hardly a serious offense. Still, I think it’s worth using language carefully, especially since I know there are comrades who hang out on hexbear who would be harmed if someone thoughtlessly called them “sir” on the internet.
