Nope, just tired of seeing it get associated with the word “based”, bc I know who came up with that association. I think you can sorta deduce my country from that lol

  Just don’t combine that with watermelons lol or I’ll assume you’re cool with nazis (or simply unaware). Peep the other comment, I explained it briefly

    But Palestine is based too.
    
    I hate the Hitler ate sugar trope, I will appropriate Nazi memes and use them against them all I want.
    
    It is only as evil as the user wielding them.

    True, it’s a bit hard to tell sometimes though, in other contexts that is

    Not always, it’s the memes combining watermelons with “based” lingo, and for the most part people using them are fine, just not aware that it got started by nazis and is sometimes used as a dogwhistle
