You wouldn't download the means of production!

[–] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 weeks ago

I like to download the memes of production

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 month ago

Only because I don’t have the storage

I wouldn't. I'd skip a bunch of them.

Is this satire or did americans unironically create this

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 39 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It is satire but Americans have unironically created similar propaganda this is styled after.

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 19 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Yeah. Americans are insane.

[–] BananaPeal@sh.itjust.works 24 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yes, we are.

My trailer trash neighbor hates the new folks across the street because they're from out of state. "This ain't New York!" It's not even racially motivated, everybody is white. I swear he purposely does annoying shit to bother them.

And before anyone judges me for calling them trailer trash, their Wi-Fi is "Trailer Trash."

Wait till you meet the satyrical Americans, they’re even insanerer.

Pirating flacs so I'm safe

[–] Microtonal_Banana@lemmy.zip 23 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I was downloading some christmas albums for my mother in law and she said "isn't downloading mp3s illegal?" And I said "these are flac files its totally different."

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

My mother is also a prime example of piracy hypocrisy.

Piracy bad

and about 1 week later after having complained about the electricity bill my server incurs:

Can you get me this show?

[–] BananaPeal@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 month ago

Not communism! I'm afraid of it threatening trade, free elections, and my individual freedoms.

Certainly unchecked capitalism will save us!

[–] arthur@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 month ago

I want it already, why you keep trying to convince me?

[–] culpritus@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago

the bit-torrent file sharing protocol was the real cyber-communist manifesto the whole time

TIL Mark Zuckerberg is a Communist

(Facebook torrented something like 80 TBs worth of copyrighted data)

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 7 points 1 month ago

Seems like as good a reason as any to do it.

[–] VerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Get off the phone! I'm trying to use the Communism!

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

"You wouldn't download a Communism"

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'd download anything I could get my Commie mitts on.

That old thing about "Would you download a car?" Goddamn right I would.

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago (2 children)

iirc they had to change it from "download" to "steal" because the overwhelming response was "hell yeah I'd download a car!" XD

[–] lka1988@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Obligatory "they stole the music for that clip"

It always reminded me of the Batman: Beyond intro music.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 1 month ago

If I could download a free car through the Internet, I don't care what you call it, I'm in.

[–] slothrop@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago

Vietnam is communist and they're the world's darlings.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (7 children)

This poster seems to indicate that piracy and/or communism are bad things. They are not. Capitalism is a bad thing (unless you are at the top 10% of the wealthiest people on earth). A bit of an imbalance that is not good. When I say 'poster' I mean the image (like posters they used to sell at K-Mart), not the person who posted.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 weeks ago

Isn't like average US income enough to put you in the top 10% on earth?

Vintage iMac in this vintage meme

[–] halm@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

My immediate thought as well πŸ‘

I want this on a t-shirt

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 weeks ago

Now, see, I am not sure of this is real or satire. I really would expect them to try some nonsense like this, so it could be as true as it could be satire...

This makes my brain hurt

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 1 month ago

Then call me the Pinko Pirate, or the Bolshevik Bootlegger or the Commie Collector.
