Oh great, we're doing political feel-good posting on this site too? Such low hanging fruit.

There's definitely a discussion to be had for how the very far right (people whose core political ideology is based in racial prejudice and literal palingenetic ultranationalism) latch onto the sole major conservative political party in the United States and how they, as a component voting block, are catered to, if not explicitly represented by, portions of that party, and even dog whistled to by the party as a whole. This post, though, comes across as straight liberal smugposting and is somewhere between completely useless and actively harmful.

Agree with almost everything except the useless or harmful part. It's just a meme meant for a quick laugh, it's not that serious.

If we want to be serious though, the Republican party has been going further and further right in the past couple of years. The meme is kind of expressing this in a way.

The past couple? 2016 was 7 years ago

Yeah, but like... That's a couple years ago for my old ass. ๐Ÿ˜‚
