  • I’m not attacking you or saying you’re wrong for how you see things. Sometimes the memes are just a way to communicate and normalize human existence. Social bias is social bias no matter who it’s against, why it’s against them, or to what degree. It’s a slippery slope to considering others to be worth less for the ways that they are.








  • Both people in the meme are workers, but Michael is pointing out that Pam thinks she’s a benefactor of capitalism, but isn’t, by being a worker.

    The lines in the meme aren’t exactly a match for the personalities from the show, and it sort of flips the meme format regarding who’s “in the know”, i.e. normally Pam is confounded by nonsense while Michael is just oblivious.

    Edit: Interestingly, though, the format still kind of follows in that both workers, Michael (boss) and Pam (employee), are helplessly taking orders from corporate (capital).
