Im guessing some conservative freak out happened over fruit cups?

There was a video on twitter of migrants selling fruit and a conservative woman freaking out. I assume that’s what it’s referring to.

It's so tiring to keep track of what they're outraged about now.

Here's a tip - don't.

kinda hard when its frequently in the front page like this

But the particulars don't matter. They're going to be trying to kill someone vulnerable, and no matter who it is, you should probably stop them, right?

That's a worrying view

why?

If you can't turn off caring about everything you see, it'll be slippery slope for your mental health

“Fruit cup" = a queer person

I thought that was a pretty common slur?

Nah. That's a fruit cake.

Por que no los dos?

And those aren't the only fruity slurs, either.

But fruit cups are tasty and nutritious

And queer people aren't?

Controversial opinion but I don't think humans taste good.

Tried to make a sex joke about tasting people but I guess I just literally don't know what about that is sexy, so someone else do it

Actually human meat is lacking in key nutrients because it has already used up the nutrients that the human body burns through quickly.

Fruit in a plastic shaker is unnecessary waste. Makes sense its a trigger.

What is the meaning of this meme? Im lost.

What does this even mean

I think this is supposed to be a joke about MAGATs never eating fruit?

That just begs the question: Why is he skinny?

Also, it appears they accidentally left out the part where it's funny.

Why is he skinny?

Meth. The answer is meth.

So meth is healthy?

I worked with a woman who'd just gotten off meth. She swore that she got sick more often while clean because... meth was made out of cold medicine.

This shit is cringe. True /c/theleftcantmeme shit. No narrative, no point, just meeting fun of a dude for being straight and bats?

Only a rightoid could see this as a normal straight man and not a masculinist fascist

Lolol a shitty meme call-out makes me a fascist 👌

They never called you a fascist, unless you are just empathising with the character in the comic that much?

So this place doesn't think the GOP is fascist? You didn't think that's the sentiment being displayed here?

Ok you’re right, if you can look at the current state of the GOP and say “nothing fascist here and i support them” then yea you probably are just a fascist. My bad dude

So they did call me a fascist? Because you said they didn't, but now you are equating the two.

I mean, the DNC is kinda fascist and the GOP is much worse.

All memes are cringe and by participating in the culture you and I are as well

Rainbow fruit cup?

Looks like a fruit bat. But I still don’t get the joke.

Me neither. I can only assume there was some news item about right wingers wetting their pants over fruit cups that I missed.

And honestly, I wouldn't be surprised. They wet their pants about everything.

Seems to be referencing this tweet which I found on another post. Doesn't seem to be just about fruit, but easiest thing to mock I guess? I agree with mocking them, but seems a little easy to strawman: https://twitter.com/LibsSuckaBigOne/status/1774570717545107602

Someone’s mad about people selling fruit cups? She can’t just not buy the fruit cups? Or, it’s a racism thing, isn’t it?

She makes a reply calling someone a fucking commie and complains about us voting in politicians that allow "illegals" in. Absolutely racism.

I wonder how Karen would feel if Native Americans expressed bitter racist disgust at Karen because her ancestors came from Europe.

I've mentioned to them more than a couple times that my people have been literally standing on this land longer than theirs. They get triggered when I explain Mexican natives also lived across what they now call the US.

I know that and tacos is what sub-truck street food looks like in southern california, so racism+"real men die of scurvy".

She's more than a little bit ridiculous, obviously, but it is strange to have so many stands selling the same things like that.

I dunno, maybe there’s a huge lunch rush or something, I’m not familiar with the area.

"I literally live in Guatemala. So unbelievably disgusting and tragic and sad."

I DON'T UNDERSTAND Someone help me

Idk but I don't like the presentation inside that fruit cup.

Yeah what is that, some pineapple and 2 sad chunks od cantaloupe shoved in the bottom? At least intersperse the two. The berries on top I understand since they're smaller.

Not inbred looking enough
