I totally agree with you. I thought this was one of the countless meme communities I’m subscribed to with this account.
I only just realized that it was worldnews, but I won’t delete it.
"I thought this was one of my spaces where we've decided it's cool to say shitty things" is a tough sell
Unfortunately, meme communities are where ironically terrible people and actual terrible people mingle and pretend that everyone else is in the same group they are.
Here's a hint: ironically terrible people are just regular terrible people (perhaps with an added unjustifiably inflated sense of superiority) once they publicly spew their terribleness.
