As the dystopian hellscape of America slinks further down into the commode, one congressperson is fighting back in what could very well be the only way she knows how: Dank Memes.
Congressperson Marjorie Taylor Greene came under fire this morning after she presented a Scooby Doo meme on the House floor comparing the Green New Deal to communist China, leaving you once again to ask, “Do… do my tax payer dollars somehow contribute to this?”
The dank meme features Freddie Jones of the Scooby Doo gang unmasking a villain labeled “The Green New Deal” only for the villain to be revealed as the Hammer and Sickle flag for Soviet Russia.
It’s unclear exactly what point Greene was trying to make, as even though the dank meme displays the flag for Soviet Russia, she went on to point at it and reference China.
“This meme is very real,” Green said on the house floor to what we can only imagine was a room full of facepalms. “The Green New Deal, surprise surprise, serves China and China only.”
Luckily, her next meme was a little less cryptic, featuring Chinese leader Xi Jinping with a caption of “I own Joe Biden and now I own Afghanistan’s lithium deposits.”
We’re going to deduct points on that one for being too straightforward and unoriginal. While we will certainly count it as a meme, we refuse to refer to her second meme as “dank.”
This isn’t the first time Greene has been under fire this year, or even this week. Earlier, she received widespread criticism after being seen wearing a mask on an airplane.
Greene, who is also a well-known, far-right conspiracy theorist, has been highly critical of mask mandates during the COVID pandemic.
Now we know what you’re thinking: What journalistic integrity have you to blatantly refer to someone as a far-right conspiracy theorist? Can you cite your sources on that one?
Earlier this year, the House voted to remove her from various committees due to violent and racist rhetoric she’s used in the past. No? You need more?
How about the multiple times she penned support for the execution of Democrats before she was elected to office in 2018 and 2019? Does that do it for you?
How does the 2018 facebook post in which she alleges that California wildfires were actually started by a Jewish Space Laser sound? Because if that doesn’t do it for you, we’re starting to think that you can’t be swayed.
In the future, one could only hope that Greene’s meme game will be as phenomenal as her ability to pull concepts like “Jewish Space Laser” from the far recesses of her mind.
Indeed, we can hear her inner monologue now: “I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for those meddling libs.”
