Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

It's deliberate, it's just engagement bait.
Not to get all conspiracy theorist, but the poster does a lot of posting of twitter posts, usually screenshots that often show both light mode and dark mode. Indicating that they are not actually on twitter themselves, but are getting the screencaps from somewhere else.
It's far more likely that Lady Butterfly isn't intentionally rage-baiting you by censoring words to foil text recognition, but is getting screen caps and posting them on Lemmy to our benefit from a source that is concerned with text recognition and getting an NSFW tag.
This isn't worth getting worked up about if you just think about it for literally 2 seconds.
Agreed, the censorship comes from the original source, not the poster on Lemmy - and the original source is the one responsible for the engagement bait.
