    I think it’s the way the panels are labelled. I think if it read just “Before” and “Now”, or something like that, it would clearly be about personal experience, funny, maybe relatable.

    But with “Shopping as a man/woman” it can interpreted as either personal experience of both sides OR broad sweeping generalisations of what men/women must all experience when shopping. And that second version is the boomer rehash.








  • My experience on Lemmy has been that most users have a generally negative view of MLs , but 90% of the rants, memes, etc bashing another (non-maga) political side are MLs bashing “leftists” as opposed to the other way around.

    I suspect that this actually doesn’t have to do with political association at all, but rather that so many people in general would rather just pick another faction to bash rather than challenging the actual powers, since that’s much easier.
