"Ultra-left" meme, or right-wing reactionary meme? Without knowing the OP, it'd be impossible to tell. Fuck outta here with this reactionary drivel.

Edit: Apparently the bottom text is supposed to be a response to the top text. That wasn't very clear.

knowing what they've said in the past about anarchists being useless arsonists and stuff, I doubt it.

I mean, I'm clearly no ultra, so I just assumed they were calling me a rightwing reactionary.

And what is the yacht supposed to represent in this meme? Society? If anyone wants to destroy human society as a whole, then that person is so far gone that I have nothing to say to them.

If that's what they intended, then it's not well communicated in the image at all. I assumed that the boat represented society, the person on the front of the boat represented the bourgeoisie, and the person on the back represented the proletariat. I assumed the meme was saying something along the lines of "socialists just want to make everyone equally poor", hence my criticism. But apparently this isn't an analogy at all, ziq literally just wants to sink some yachts. Okay then.

Oh, so the original was just a reactionary meme, and the text on the bottom was supposed to be an addendum to respond to the reactionary meme? Well, that was not clear at all.

It is now, since I know what to look for. But it wasn't at first. Most people don't pay much attention to the font and color of the text they're reading, and I wasn't when I was reading it, so it didn't register that the bottom text was supposed to be in response to the top text. I assumed ziq wrote the whole thing. The top part pissed me off, and the bottom part seemed like a non-sequitur. If they had put the bottom text outside of the original image, like on a white border, instead of putting it over the original image, then it might have been more intuitive that it was supposed to be a response.

A yacht. Sink all the yachts. Sink all bourgie affluence.

Damn, if I knew sinking some bourgie's yacht would piss you off so much I would have done it months ago.

Now that tankiekind have classified me a 'rightwing reactionary', get ready for some really dank memes.

How do you know it's not a yacht built by an artisan boat builder as a project to pass on the skills to his son?
