Somebody needs to reshop the original with that massive grin he does and then feed it back through this
Lefty Memes
An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of the "ML" influence of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmygrad. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.
Serious posts, news, and discussion go in c/Socialism.
If you are new to socialism, you can ask questions and find resources over on c/Socialism101.
Please don't forget to help keep this community clean by reporting rule violations, updooting good contributions and downdooting those of low-quality!
Rules
0. Only post socialist memes
That refers to funny image macros and means that generally videos and screenshots are not allowed. Exceptions include explicitly humorous and short videos, as well as (social media) screenshots depicting a funny situation, joke, or joke picture relating to socialist movements, theory, societal issues, or political opponents. Examples would be the classic case of humorous Tumblr or Twitter posts/threads. (and no, agitprop text does not count as a meme)
1. Socialist Unity in the form of mutual respect and good faith interactions is enforced here
Try to keep an open mind, other schools of thought may offer points of view and analyses you haven't considered yet. Also: This is not a place for the Idealism vs. Materialism or rather Anarchism vs. Marxism debate(s), for that please visit c/AnarchismVsMarxism.
2. Anti-Imperialism means recognizing capitalist states like Russia and China as such
That means condemning (their) imperialism, even if it is of the "anti-USA" flavor.
3. No liberalism, (right-wing) revisionism or reactionaries.
That includes so called: Social Democracy, Democratic Socialism, Dengism, Market Socialism, Patriotic Socialism, National Bolshevism, Anarcho-Capitalism etc. . Anti-Socialist people and content have no place here, as well as the variety of "Marxist"-"Leninists" seen on lemmygrad and more specifically GenZedong (actual ML's are welcome as long as they agree to the rules and don't just copy paste/larp about stuff from a hundred years ago).
4. No Bigotry.
The only dangerous minority is the rich.
5. Don't demonize previous and current socialist experiments or (leading) individuals.
We must constructively learn from their mistakes, while acknowledging their achievements and recognizing when they have strayed away from socialist principles.
(if you are reading the rules to apply for modding this community, mention "Mantic Minotaur" when answering question 2)
6. Don't idolize/glorify previous and current socialist experiments or (leading) individuals.
Notable achievements in all spheres of society were made by various socialist/people's/democratic republics around the world. Mistakes, however, were made as well: bureaucratic castes of parasitic elites - as well as reactionary cults of personality - were established, many things were mismanaged and prejudice and bigotry sometimes replaced internationalism and progressiveness.
- Absolutely no posts or comments meant to relativize(/apologize for), advocate, promote or defend:
- Racism
- Sexism
- Queerphobia
- Ableism
- Classism
- Rape or assault
- Genocide/ethnic cleansing or (mass) deportations
- Fascism
- (National) chauvinism
- Orientalism
- Colonialism or Imperialism (and their neo- counterparts)
- Zionism
- Religious fundamentalism of any kind
Truly the last American hero.
Remember remember!
The 4th of December
A CEO dies all alone;
On the street he was lain,
cold, pale and in pain,
thousands of deaths that he own.
The decisions he'd struck,
Layers removed from the slaughter,
Were a shareholder's treat,
Your dead mother or daughter.
Those investors all wait, on that cold winter morn,
Still unawares of profit potential they'd mourn,
Poking at hotel breakfast, bored looks on their face
As was Brian's when he denied and delayed at great pace
Endless growth, deposed, on behalf of us all
Luigi didn't do it, we were hiking in Nepal.
This is wonderful and can confirm, Luigi told me he was going on a trip to Nepal and didn’t know what to wear.
I have a little outfit Id like to see him in.
I got some Harry Potter newspaper vibes from this, I being animated was totally unexpected.
This is testing my Kinsey scale
That scared me a bit, last time I saw this picture it wasn't animated I think.
This is the best AI anything ever.
Impressed how emotive this is.
Now this is a use case of AI I can appreciate!
Dang that's good on many levels.
This is super creepy.
Nah it's amazing
Why not both?
That damn smile
I found the original still on @gedogfx's Instagram, here's a direct link to the post: https://www.instagram.com/p/DDr5FrfMl5n/
It looks like they are indeed the original artist :)
Awesome thank you for confirming that for me! I hope they like what I've done lol
Be still my heart.
Very ironic in my opinion to use AI to celebrate this guy.
why?
Because United Health Care is using AI to deny claims.
Probably use computers too.
Yea the cops identified him using pictures too.
Oh and the media is condemning him with words.
Wow this train of thought really goes places.
I’m curious if Luigi would approve.
Luigi's ways are inscrutable.
How to download?
If the way you're accessing Lemmy doesn't give you the option, you can follow the source link and download it directly.

On mobile, tap the video, then click the three dots that appear in the top right corner of the video, and then the option to download will appear.
Thank you.
I really, really like this image. Can I have it?
Thanks, I hate it.
How do people post imgur links in a way that seems to embed the video?
Edit: nvm I think I got it! Lmk if it works on your client though, please! Working on Eternity
Works on Voyager too.
Works on boost
It works for me in Connect on Android :)
The GIF also works on Sync.
What model or tool was used to make this?
there is a watermark, https://klingai.com/
Ah I'm dumb as fuck lol it's right there! Thank you!
You can use Hunyuan Video video to make stuff like this locally now.
Thank you for the info!
Be warned, you need a beefy GPU, AFAIK.
Dang, all I own is an old 3080
It’d be fine if Nvidia didn’t skimp on the VRAM :(
It’s possible SDV or some image-to-vid models would run in 10GB, honestly I haven’t kept up with this space.
