Democrat scum are looking for ways to criminalize memes, just as they crave the oppression of all conservative speech.
The humor of the meme is an effective tool for conservatives and violent, humorless Democrats are unable to compete.

Unless it’s a D list actress decapitating Trump.
Then it’s hysterical.

They like memes when used to ridicule conservatives, but not when it skewers them.

And yet the same “outraged” clowns here have been utter silent about REAL violence by deranged Democrat Fascists committed on Trump Supporters.

Well there’s that picture of a “comedian” holding an effigy of the President’s bloody severed head, or the dramatic play in a park featuring his assasination, or the both depiction of him being decapitated on a storefront window or those online pining for his death...

And cricket from these same “outrage” clowns from the ad in Time Square showing Trump being assaulted and hog tied.

This one got their panties in a bunch, that's for sure.
And I can't find the video anywhere now.

Hey Kathryn Watson, at least we do it in jest where no one is actually hurt. The same cannot be said of your loyal minions, Antifa.

Let ‘em try. Every policeman and soldier on Earth couldn’t disarm Pomona, California.

Remember when the liberal facade of “intelligence” actually had a chance of being believed?
Thanks to our press, no chance of that now.

Boss Tweed hated Thomas Nast's cartoons the same way
"His drawings are stuck upon the walls of the poorest dwellings, and stored away in the portfolios of the wealthiest connoisseurs. A man who can appeal powerfully to millions of people, with a few strokes of the pencil, must be admitted to be a great power in the land. No writer can possibly possess a tenth part of the influence with Mr. Nast exercises. "He addresses the learned and the unlearned alike. Many people cannot read 'leading articles,' others do not choose to read them, others do not understand them when they have read them. But you cannot help seeing Mr. Nast's pictures, and when you have seen them you cannot fail to understand them. "When he caricatures a politician, the name of that politician ever afterwards recalls the countenance of which Nast has made him a present. An artist of that stamp and such artists are very rare indeed does more to affect public opinion than a score of writers."

It’s no surprise lefties are attacking memes. First, they are an effective means of communication (a picture is worth a thousand words); memes bypass normal brain pathways which process information from the written or spoken word; second, the tech companies have not yet come up with algorithms which can distinguish between memes they like and those they don’t; And third, conservatives are far, far better at memes than lefties...and they know it.
