I'm a huge fan of eco-memes. I adore intersectional justice, and memes reveal the beauty of intersectionality within the environmental movements.
I love silly content that warms my heart and pushes away my climate dread. Still, I want to see honest memes that speak to the radical environmentalist in me.
I look for memes that provide a combo of emotional reinforcement and cynical realism. We all need that balance of hopeful, optimistic content and jaded, logical disillusionment.
Eco-memes cover the environment, ecology, climate change, sustainability, and social politics.
Memes can be about anything and everything. That variety that enhances the content.
I've laughed at memes about celebrities and entertainment, racism and decolonization, veganism and animal rights, pollution and plastic, politics and government, and more.
There is no gatekeeping in memes, and because of that, culture and diversity of thought thrive on the internet.
