    “Posted without further comment,” wrote Trump Jr. on social media, alongside a photoshopped image of his father dropping a bright green phallus onto an unsuspecting group of female basketball players.

    And several people responded to that post pointing out the irony that these are the people “protecting women’s sports” from trans athletes…

      A big part of them “protecting” women is just doing anything to reduce the amount of their competition for women.

      They view women as property, and that’s the context they’re “protecting” them as.

      They hate gay men, because they’re worried about being treated how they treat women.

    To be fair, Trump did basically turn the new rose garden into a basketball court. And he is a sex offender that’s on the Epstein list.

    How is it a meme if it isn’t being memeticly shared and reproduced?

    I hate now lazy we are with modern words.

    A silly photo ≠ meme upon creation.

    But it’s a meme now? Because he shared it? I guess so. Bleh. I just find the way the word is used to be poor.
