Too bad its fake: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/greta-sticker-on-flooded-car/
The fact check references to Bild-Zeitung which is famous for lying and fake news and hates climate activists. I wouldn’t be surprised if Bild photoshoped the sticker away. But it doesn’t look stretched the right way.
Doesn’t matter. Still happy to see a bmw drowning
Jokes should have timing and awareness and not detract from a situation for self congratulatory hahas. The flood was a disaster and many died. Ignoring all that to falsify information just to make a joke for internet updoots is just being a bad actor in a tragic situation and done in poor taste. It’s apathetic at the very least.
oh hey look. I’m on the internet so I get be all grandstanding and impose a moral high ground on the conversation. Lmfao. Y’all take this site waay to fucking serious
You’re such a victim of people not laughing at your joke.
Not really mate. Getting “updoots” as you put it is pretty easy with Lemmy neckbeards.
- Be progressive
- Be nerdy
- Be white (4. Act like an American man)
Oh, and whatever you do don’t disagree with the community narrative
Side note: On Lemmy World perhaps yes, but other instances have very different upvoting climates, particularly regarding points three and four.
Oh for sure. Just saying it’s really not that difficult to integrate into the culture is all. I just don’t care to always talk in a manner that the group agrees with (whatever group that may be). Upvotes are easy enough to come by if you care for them
Greta sure had a varied sex life.
Can someone explain where is the irony? Wasn’t Greta specifically fighting global warming and consequent disasters?
Exactly. The person with the car* had an anti Greta sticker meaning he/she denis climate change and then got hit by a flood (which was supposedly caused by climate change). Of course this is essentially just a meme, don’t take it to seriously.
