McDonald's is the restaurant of class traitors, none of my homies eat at that rat's nest.

I mean, also the food tastes like it was made for dogs not people, but yes there are many reasons to avoid giving patronage to most any fast food company.

[-] kautau@lemmy.world 74 points 1 month ago

made for dogs not people

Checks out

Honestly though, what fucking tool flies private while flexing the fact that they brought McD’s for the flight? Like… what…?

[-] als 31 points 1 month ago

It's all about optics. "Hey he eats shit fast food just like me, I bet he's a really normal guy"

[-] kautau@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

I read a theory a while back that Trump only eats McDonald's so often because it prevents him from being poisoned, but in this case it's also like "hey you're the richest dude in the world, here's a quarter pounder, you work for me." Everything to the wealthy and powerful is about feeling more powerful than the others in the room

[-] PyroNeurosis 4 points 1 month ago

Prevents poisoning only insomuch as other people won't bother adding more poison to your food.

Can't make it much worse for you.

[-] too_high_for_this@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

I'm 99% sure that Dorito Mussolini had a mini McDonald's installed in Air Force One. There's no bags, they have dine-in trays, and bottled soda because they couldn't put a fountain machine in a plane.

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

I don't think that's air force one. My guess is they just had some staff on the private plane plate the burgers and fries using the normal plates and trays they'd serve any meals on and had them leave the bags in the back but leave the individual packaging for the food items so they could virtue signal eating the same food their fan club eats.

Another possibility is some high end chef was told to prepare burgers and fries and then use McDonald's packaging as a part of the presentation.

[-] unphazed@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

It's not AFOne. Most likely his favorite plane, the one that was formerly owned by Jeffrey Epstein.

[-] TheDoozer@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

My dogs do love McDonalds. You might be on to something.

I wouldn't feed it to them because I love my dogs and want them to live at least relatively healthy. But they'd love it if I would.

[-] TheAlbatross 10 points 1 month ago

I admire your restraint as I'm sure it would be infectiously joyous to watch them scarf down a hamburger

[-] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 5 points 1 month ago

My two younger dogs love going for rides, like to the point that I have to get a family member to distract them if I grab my keys. The only way I can get them to not be sad and depressed when I get home from leaving without them is to bring them chicken nuggets. It got way too expensive doing that in the hot summer months when they can rarely go with me, so I had to start making my own and keeping them in the freezer for them to have when I get home. Lmao

[-] TheLowestStone@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

My dog gets much higher quality food.

[-] Sasha 4 points 1 month ago

Also part of the BDS for giving free meals to Israeli soldiers

[-] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 98 points 1 month ago

I feel kinda bad for the woman in the photo, since is wasn't her and she had it taken long before it happened.

Buuuut fuck the lot of em.

[-] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 51 points 1 month ago

Also found out she rated for money she won't be able to collect because she called 911. So no money for the class traitor.

[-] phdepressed@sh.itjust.works 46 points 1 month ago

Ahahah, wow, that really is capitalism at its best. That's some delicious irony and I'll bet none of the wealthy will do anything to try and get her her money either lol.

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

Took me a bit to realize you meant ratted instead of the past tense of "rate".

Though if they do stiff her on the money because of that technicality, I'd consider that a massive tactical blunder, maybe even strategic. Tactical because it reduces the incentive for individuals to inform because they'll realize the reward has technicalities that can be used to weasel out of paying it, on top of the public backlash directed towards the employee and everything they are known to be associated with (McDonald's). Strategic because it might just be another straw on the camel's back about how the ruling elite fuck over the working class every chance they get, even for amounts of money that would be trivial to them, despite being life changing for the informant.

My guess is that the technicalities will slide and there might be a ceremony with a novelty giant-sized check (which would simultaneously dodge the above issue while also still fucking her over because such an event would give a face to the one who called the police on a popular fugitive). Then she can be used to justify some secret police shit, if they still feel the need to justify things at that point.

They should have use AI from this kind of meme

[-] TheAlbatross 19 points 1 month ago

No AI content is allowed on this community.

[-] Rhaedas@fedia.io 11 points 1 month ago

It could also filter to any McD's worker, or possibly other fast food worker. I find it sad that the story of a blue collar worker not resisting the reward bait, perhaps even not knowing the full information and internet vibe of don't tell, is now the lead rather than continuing the battle against CEOs. We really do have a short attention span for shiny things, don't we?

If I was a really deep conspiracy nut I'd even ponder if the whole thing was a plant to turn the public away from the rich. Nah...we're not that stupid, right?

[-] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 month ago

I assumed it was a stock photo. I never hold anything against faces I see in media, especially when they’re lit this professionally, because they’re often stock photos.

[-] OldManBOMBIN@lemmy.world 37 points 1 month ago

Situation aside, I absolutely love downloading super specific memes that the meaning of which I will either have no recollection, or will be etched into my brain forever. Sometimes it's assassinations, sometimes it's moot posting soup b which seems to have disappeared.

Pretty tasteless meme tbh

fuck CEOs tho

[-] TotallynotJessica@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

Pretty tasteless comment tbh

CEOs are delicious

[-] festnt@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago

i mean, they did say "fuck CEOs"

[-] TotallynotJessica@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

They didn't suggest we do anything about it

[-] itslilith 6 points 1 month ago

Fuck CEOs, anyone who shoots them does society a favor, and Luigi is a hero in my book. Still pretty tasteless to compare him to Anne Frank, a teenager that was killed by Nazis for simply existing.

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 month ago

Just like their burgers

[-] boydster@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

Anyone that doesn't recognize this meme is about the class traitor and not the name they read on the screen needs to wake tf up

[-] Fridam 19 points 1 month ago

Anne Frank was a queer jewish victim of the nazi genocide. This is not comparable to the outing of Luigi, and I find this meme just as tasteless as the people who think the ceo is more important than normal people

[-] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 month ago

if you don't like stuff like that, you're on the wrong platform chief

[-] itslilith 8 points 1 month ago

Please explain what you mean

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 12 points 1 month ago

This is a black humour shitpost sub. Might wanna move past without input

[-] itslilith 9 points 1 month ago

My understanding was that this was a mostly queer, generally left-leaning shitpost community. If this turns into another "look, I'm so edgy" community, I might just do that, but I'd be sad about it.

It's not really the post that bugs me, but the casual and repeated dismissal of someone saying that they think this is inappropriate. Because you see how Anne Frank and Luigi are not in the slightest comparable, right?

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 7 points 1 month ago

yes, we do.

as does everyone who sees this meme. No one is putting the two on equal footing. Not in the slightest. Except possibly you.

[-] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

that people on here generally have a pretty dark sense of humor, don't care what pisses others off, and tend to challenge norms, rules and tge status qou. this includes memes including the holocaust

[-] blackris@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 month ago

With stuff like that you mean trivializing the holocaust to simp for a fucking murderer because he killed a guy who was a piece of shit himself?

[-] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

if you think that this comparison is trivializing the holocaust that's on you chief. cause in my eyes nothing can do that, no matter how many jokes.

[-] timestatic@feddit.org 17 points 1 month ago

It is disgusting to compare a murderer to Anne Frank

[-] raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world 41 points 1 month ago

That's your takeaway from this meme? Back to school you should go. Although if you live in the US, being poorly educated is likely not your fault but that of the system.

[-] itslilith 13 points 1 month ago

You can both think that the guy is justified and a hero for doing what he did, and also think that comparing him to Anne Frank is in very bad taste, at best. He chose to do what he did, Anne Frank was persecuted and murdered just for who she was.

[-] ALoafOfBread@lemmy.ml 17 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

That's not really what's happening in the meme. There's a common philosophical thought experiment about moral relativism and that takes issue with Kantian ethics that basically says: okay, you think lying is wrong, but in some situations it's morally correct - like if you're a gentile in Nazi Germany and Anne Frank is in your attic & a Nazi comes to your door demanding to know if you've seen any Jews. Because lying is wrong, do you just rat Anne Frank out? Obviously no. But if you believe that not ratting out Anne Frank is morally right, then you have to admit that lying is not wrong per se.

Kant though was a removed and would have ratted Anne Frank out. Source:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_a_Supposed_Right_to_Tell_Lies_from_Benevolent_Motives

Meme goes back to 1797 when Benjamin Constant pointed this out to Kant in an essay. The thought experiment was about a murderer at the door looking for someone who is in your house because Nazis didn't exist yet.

No one is comparing the CEO to Anne Frank what are you talking about
