Found this whilst scouring Reddit.
Also, can someone advise: is this the right community for this, or would it be better off in the politics/meme (though it’s not really a meme, even if it should be) kind of post?
Fixed
Cripes…
I’m no artist but I took a shot 🤷
Good thing his follower aren’t here. How triggered they would be…
It’s just a good thing they are not here in general. They kinda suck.
You really made my day
Every time I remember that he was killed by the hateful environment he helped create, I smile.
The penis tie really brings it together.
XD didn’t even notice that lol. So very small and flaccid…
A bad drawing made by a mentally challenged MAGAt is a fitting tribute to what Charlie Kirk stood for.
You just made my day
Needs more red, though.
Engagement and rage baiting … everyone knows it’s stupid, the creator knows its stupid, everyone who reads it knows it stupid … so it causes everyone to get upset, confused, angry and interested in it … even the fact you reposted it to share with us is a form of engagement and rage baiting.
It’s all just mindless stupidity to keep us all angry and upset at thing we are already angry and upset about.
Isn’t that called shitposting?
I am for real with my question. I always thought that is the definition of that term.
Shitposting is the internet equivalent of writing something on the bathroom stall while taking a shit.
Shit posting is mostly just posting low quality memes i think. So the guy who posted was serious and OP of this conversation is shitposting. He took a stupid ass post that makes no sense out of context and jabaited us into commenting
This was from a Charlie Kirk fan group. The creator most definitely does not think it’s stupid (not me, the original author) which is the thing: they genuinely believe this is a good thing.
It’s part of the game of engagement and rage baiting … even for believers or followers of Charlie Kirk, they know that anything they do or say causes rage or negative responses, which only drives their engagement.
It’s like the age old saying about advertising and marketing … any news, whether its good or bad, negative or positive is always good news … because it means that people are talking about you.
The phrase you’re looking for is “There is no such thing as bad publicity” Which is the cornerstone of Trumps political career.
That’s a fair point ig. I suppose it’s like that old saying ‘there’s no such thing as bad publicity if you want to become infamous’, though I personally do believe that there is ‘bad’ attention that can be drawn to something
Lol
Face too big
Who knew Charlie Kirk and Butt-Head had so much in common.
Who indeed
He looks like someone who knows he’s about to the shot in the neck.
the likeness is uncanny
Lool
A shitpost is an art style. If you had posted the image without your drawing on top of it, it would have fit perfect, but because you added your own opinion to it, you ruined it. Making fun of people’s skills isnt cool.
He’s right tho. Pro-level shit posting requires that you don’t mark up the original, and leave a reasonable doubt that you are the OP
Rule of thumb
Edit: plus, if I didn’t make it clear my opinion, you can guarantee someone (probably most people) would misconstrue it as me advocating it, which isn’t the case. I don’t agree with the Reddit post, so I have no choice but to smudge my opinion over it. You and him are literally the only two people who have ‘complained’ about it, everyone else gets it (so far). Dont believe me, read through the comments section in full. Seriously, read through it - you two are the only two so far who just don’t ’get’ it (I.e. the modifications) or at least are the only two who have voiced issue with it. I’m obviously going to go with the majority, not the minority
Ya thats the point of shitposting and trolling, you want them to accuse you of thinking like that, thats the engagement bait. Thats what makes it a shit post. Like the classic “mental retardation or bait” You just post the dumbest thing you can find and then play along with the comments for engagement. It’s supposed to confuse and frusterate the viewer. Im not complaining im just helping your shit posting grow and mature, you can do what you want its a free fediverse
Fair point. But everyone else seems to like it, so…
