    Maybe, but it’s a slippery slope where logical and quality arguments - even if it’s a simple image - lose their impact. The quality of an argument becomes diminished, and by letting that happen, you open yourself and your argument to criticism.

    This isn’t a ‘you’ thing, I get that, but it is a fine, real-world example of it happening. If the creator of the image can’t be bothered to step back and see the obvious flaws, it has lost its merit before it’s even started, only being carrier by the people who are okay with spreading it without seeing the problems it has.

    Would you put any trust into a professional of any field who cannot create an argument, be it text or image, that has such glaring issues? And you know the audience that this is trying to poke fun at will rip it to bits worse than I have. It has no impact, other than in echo chambers, where people overlook the obvious.

      Everyone else seems to understand the meaning without needing to critique the design.

      First time on the internet?

          That’s the problem my guy, we don’t need to be educated. Everyone - including you apparently - gets the meaning, you’re the only one who feels the need to critique the design. Which is absolutely your right, but don’t look down your nose at me like I’m an uneducated buffoon because I don’t agree with your assessments.
