If it's one of those scratch and sniff cards then it's Joe Biden

Are the liberals already scratched, yet to be scratched, or come pre-scratched? Doesn't matter, the meme makes sense in every case.

I don't understand what the meme means.

Also, does this have alt text? If so, how do I view it?

It's in a similar vein to this quote from Assata Shakur

I have never really understood exactly what a ‘liberal’ is, since I have heard ‘liberals’ express every conceivable opinion on every conceivable subject. As far as I can tell, you have the extreme right, who are fascist racist capitalist dogs like Ronald Reagan, who come right out and let you know where they’re coming from. And on the opposite end, you have the left, who are supposed to be committed to justice, equality, and human rights. And somewhere between those two points is the liberal.

As far as I’m concerned, ‘liberal’ is the most meaningless word in the dictionary. History has shown me that as long as some white middle-class people can live high on the hog, take vacations to Europe, send their children to private schools, and reap the benefits of their white skin privilege, then they are ‘liberal’. But when times get hard and money gets tight, they pull off that liberal mask and you think you’re talking to Adolf Hitler. They feel sorry for the so-called underprivileged just as long as they can maintain their own privileges.

Liberals, when "scratched," reveal their fascist side. Liberalism and fascism are two sides of the same coin.

What exactly is in the picture though? Is the scratch-off lottery ticket a liberal fascist who has been scratched off? Is that the metaphor?

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 hours ago

Basically, yea. You scratch a liberal, and the fascist underneath reveals itself like a lotto ticket.

If we are all Nazis, who is Nazis?

[–] Beetschnapps@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

What the downvotes? Do you support genocide?

[–] Beetschnapps@lemmy.world -1 points 1 hour ago

Everyone is a Nazi, liberals aren’t liberal and such they are Nazis. You’re a Nazi. I didn’t get my pizza delivered fast enough, cause the delivery boy was a Nazi. Did you stub your toe? It’s cause liberals, they’re Nazis.

Did you know Nazis cause astigmatism? All you have to be is liberal…

[–] EmmiLime@lemmy.ml 9 points 5 hours ago (3 children)

Liberals, when facing a choice between socialism and fascism, will always side with fascism.

Whay are you a racist liberal supporting genocide? What are you so liberal? Why do liberals support the kkk? Why do you genocide so much ?

Do you hear how stupid you sound?

[–] Beetschnapps@lemmy.world 0 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

I will also make a huge blanket statement just like you! All socialists are Nazis if they don’t post hard enough… you’re a Nazi for using the internet. Why do you support genocide?

Also why do you not mention conservatism at all and instead demonize the most liberal elements of society?

It’s cause you’re a Nazi. Why are you a Nazi?

[–] MantisToboggon@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago (3 children)

So fascists is Nazis? Me confused.

[–] Beetschnapps@lemmy.world -1 points 1 hour ago

These people are idiots. Don’t give them the air to breathe.
