- 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.

Yeah, ive always taken it to mean "we could live in a better world but the likes of Donald Trump exist".
We ALL get to be the asshole at one time or another, which you've glossed over.
I didnt gloss over anything. Its just a matter of how you interpret what ive said.
You've argued that assholes are individuals, instead of all of us.
Don't be disingenuous.
Of course we can all be arseholes at some point. I think youre just getting hung up on the fact that i chose someone rich/famous as an example.
