Why were the memes deleted?

Can someone please explain why about 15 of my recent coronavirus memes in that PDF were just nuked? Only a couple of them actually made it through.

Here’s the link to the thread:

I haven't seen any explanation at all. They're just gone—deleted, wiped, vanished into thin air.

?

Probably because of all those back-to-back posts. I assume (one author flooding the thread) is somewhere in the rules as a violation.

Then again, the same "curator" implies the same musical taste.

I actually started "reading" through your selection of memes yesterday... they were decent enough at first,
but I couldn't make it to the bottom of the page. I just got tired of the same "DJ"... even if the memes weren't all identical.

It was somewhat psychological on my end... no clue what 🤷

So if that’s actually the rule—you know, having a limit on how many memes you can drop in a row—then I finally get it now. Thanks for clearing that up for me!

Man, I just noticed that a massive amount of memes I posted have been wiped out. And I’m not just talking about recent stuff—these were posts from months ago that just vanished into thin air. It feels like they pulled some arbitrary rule straight out of nowhere and decided to apply it retroactively. Honestly? It’s just blatant, shameless CENSORSHIP. It looks like pro-government censorship designed to keep the pandemic fairy tale alive for as long as possible, and now they're coming for artistic expression—aka memes—because apparently, they’re just too subversive for the official narrative. Now the moderators are even trying to play judge and jury on what counts as "funny" within this thread; if a meme doesn't meet their personal, totally random standard of humor, they just delete it. This literally just happened to me the other day.

Don't. Mess. With. Me.

Mods actually doing their jobs?! Good for them. Everyone else is busy packing their bags and running for the hills before the apocalypse hits, yet these guys are still out here grinding... 👍

Well, props to them then. 🙏 Same goes for you. 🙂

Are you actually afraid of a little humor? Even Hitler and his whole crew were terrified of a good joke when they were running things. Every single dictatorship in history has been scared of satire, which is exactly why they always try to censor it.

The latest bit of "work" being done over there is a classic: they successfully segregated the Memes topic into its own little "Skeptical Memes" corner.

I bet the moderators are feeling pretty proud of themselves for pulling that off.

No, we’re actually craving it. It's just that I personally had to tell you three or four times that you were being exhausting with all that nonsense, yet you just keep spinning in circles... and others have tried to warn you too.

...
The latest "operation" over there—they successfully split the Memes thread into its own separate section called "Skeptical memes."

How much would you bet that your constant flooding of the thread with ridiculous memes is what actually caused this segregation?
A fair amount of the provocative images in that thread aren't even funny, but you're the only one relentlessly burying everything under them.

Wait, hold up. You’re seriously calling them "stupid" and saying people were "warned"? What are you even talking about here? Look, memes are satire and irony—that's literally what they are. I'm pretty sure you know how that works.

Look, I’m not out here spamming or anything; I’m just posting memes like we always do. If there was a limit on how many memes people could drop, you guys really should have just said so from the jump. There was never any rule about a cap, but then suddenly, out of nowhere, this arbitrary restriction gets slapped on us. Fine. We played by the rules and respected that. But then, apparently, following the rules isn't enough anymore because now we've got this sudden requirement that everything has to be "funny." That is honestly ridiculous. It feels totally subjective. Now, if a post doesn't meet this new "hilarious" standard—or whatever criteria whoever is in charge decides on today—it immediately gets nuked or shoved into some separate "skeptical meme" thread. This is getting out of hand; it feels like total censorship.

Hey, could someone please do me a huge favor and just delete that "skeptical meme" thread? I definitely wasn't the one who started it, and honestly, I have zero interest in being the one to kick that off. It feels like a bit much, and I’ve got some serious questions about why Mr. Brown decided to take things in that direction on his own. Just feels a little uncalled for, you know?

Well... I suspect you simply don't understand, and therein lies the entire crux of the issue.
They certainly gave you a lecture, didn't they? But let’s be clear: just because an image exists on the internet doesn't mean it’s actually funny or worthy of being pinned under a meme thread.
Furthermore, while I have no idea what you were told, one's sense of humor isn't exactly measured by the sheer volume of "funny" little pictures they manage to post.

"Funny" is a rather universal concept, wouldn't you agree? Common sense would suggest that if you find something hilarious that everyone else finds distasteful, you might want to start by questioning your own perspectives and sensibilities.

Look at this—this is a perfect example of wit, and honestly, bravo to you—suggesting we should delete a thread simply because *you* weren't the one who started it!! 🤣

Wait.. what? 🤔

I don’t know exactly what they told you behind closed doors, but I’m willing to bet my bottom dollar they gave you the order to start censoring things. It’s pretty obvious at this point. Honestly, that whole "these memes aren't funny" excuse is such a joke—it’s just a total smokescreen. I mean, let's be real, mods aren't some kind of supreme authority on what actually makes people laugh, right? Calling something unfunny just to justify pulling it down is nothing more than a cheap act.

If we actually followed the "logic" you’re pushing—which, let’s be real, is totally fake and just plain homo, just like everything else you say—then no meme or satirical piece of any kind would ever even exist. It's really that simple: the mods here can't handle subversive, satirical memes. That's why they made the call to censor everything by deleting or moving posts.

So, here’s the deal: my whole argument was based on the fact that I wanted a thread deleted because it was originally opened under my username, even though I wasn't the one who started it. But then, out of nowhere, the moderator stepped in and edited the details to change the authorship, which basically makes my initial complaint technically moot. It’s like trying to argue about a parking ticket only to find out they changed the license plate number on the system after you filed the appeal—it kind of defeats the purpose of the grievance. But honestly? Even if the technicality is gone, we can't just ignore what actually happened. We're still looking at a textbook case of surgical, pinpoint censorship. It was done with such precision that it’s almost impressive, but yeah, it’s definitely happening.

So, go ahead and sink right down into that "heroic" vaccine-branded ego of yours. Seriously, you really leaned into it, didn't you? Well done.🙂

I’ve actually been reporting those memes one after another and asking the mods to just take them down because, honestly, they were getting to be way too much for me to handle.
I mean, I guess the whole point of having a meme thread is supposed to be about keeping things chill and funny and just having a good time, right? It shouldn't feel like I'm being personally attacked every single time I decide to open the thread.

Good grief, what an absolute loser 🤣


🙂

I'm actually glad they split up. I have to admit, there were some pretty funny moments, but also some stuff that was just straight-up dumb and didn't even qualify as memes. Like, the first pic here is alright, but the second one is just a massive "wtf"—not sure what the joke is supposed to be:

Also, what's even supposed to be funny about this?

Honestly, you might want to look into filing a lawsuit for emotional distress while you're at it!

Look, no official definition of a meme requires it to actually be funny. One of the biggest parts of the whole thing is creativity. Specifically, that Hellraiser-Vaxx meme is super creative, even if people can debate whether it's actually hilarious or not. It might not hit for you, but personally, it always puts a little smile on my face.

That is likely just a spasm from his 15th stroke. I have no better explanation than that.

Oh look, our buddy TheBigShit decided to pop up again (though, let's be real, he’s still acting like his opinion is the only one that matters). Where have you been hiding, man? It feels like forever! :-)

Enjoy the memes. ;-)

Are you available? Because I'd marry you in a heartbeat.
Actually, it doesn't even matter—even if you aren't, it's easy enough to fix. Just a couple of shots from the vaccine and we're all set. 🙂

Hell yeah!
I’ve got the tools in the garage. I need to get these pictures hung up. Let's start with 😉

Just a joke. You’re going to be obsessing over pictures while there are so many anti-vaxxers out there who clearly have zero tolerance for high-quality humor. We'll touch base later about our next move. hashtag ReturnTheGoodMemes 👍
