The atom model with the electrons going around the nucleus, is inspired by the solar system. The better model doesn't look anything alike. This is a naturalistic circular fallacy

There was a program call "Nero burning ROM". A pun I understood much later

When I was young, I was poor. But after decades of hard work, I'm not young anymore

cheap uprule farming post by posting someone talented's work
I like the meme but let's get that straight (no pun intended): both tomboys and femboys break out of the gender binary. Their very existence puts heteronormativity into question. If a boy can look like a girl and be it just having long hair, that's the beginning of the end of an oppressive system that should end as soon as possible.

There are Hamas fighters, future Hamas fighters, potential Hamas fighters and Hamas sympathizers. All belong to Hamas. There might be other categories as well.

The meme template works when left and right is the same thing. There are templates for this kind of message, too. Sorry for being that guy.

4th person pronoun?
There are languages with a 4th person pronoun. The 3rd person is kind of the main character and the 4th someone else. That helps to disambiguate sentences like "The criminal shot the cop and drove away on his (own or the cop's) bike".
Or the "gay fanfiction problem": "He looked at him and lay his hands on his lap". Is it a happy ending or a sad one? That's one theory why gender in pronouns is so resilient: more often than not, the gendered pronoun can disambiguate which person is talked about. It doesn't always work, a 3rd/4rd person distinction is superior.

I agree with conservatives that strict boarders are necessary for nation states.
They call it a necessity evil, I use it as an argument to abolish all states.

One newspaper once did this with the two presidential candidates on election day and everyone was like "how did they know"

Awww yeah
This makes me get meta very fast: OP created this post, so they aren't lurking. It's isn't their first meme either, the profile shows about a meme per day.
So the lurking part isn't about OP. But is the other? Is it like everyone should contribute, even lurkers; or is it rather if you don't contributing via post, at least support financially?
Neither would be morally bad, don't get me wrong. I'm writing this to distract from the fact that I'm in the upper category of the meme.

The context given in the title: France had an election and the left union is the biggest group but still doesn't have a majority. The president is a liberal and seems to favor the Right over the Left
