    I don’t want to discuss whether Tramp is a fascist or not. A meme is a meme. It can be about anything. You have no power here, but I understand your point. I just want Nijika to be the president of the world. I can even be her slave.

      Okay, but the implication here is that you want her to be president, like you expect/want Trump to be president. Whether or not those are your actual politics, that’s the subtext.

      It’s in poor taste anyhow, especially since we haven’t yet seen the full effects of the fallout of this extremely recent event. It would be more direct and clear to memify a political ad, if your goal is to celebrate your favorite Vtuber.

      I’m not saying you’re a bad person, but I am saying people need to realize that memes don’t exist in a vacuum, and treating dangerous people like jokes allows them to keep doing what they do under cover of humor.
