    You’re making an assumption. I’m the one who made this image and I did not crop it specifically to “make that lie.” I cropped it to show the six people that were holding their hands up.

      You may not like it to hear it, but the image you created is not good and message is misleading. We can all count people on our own without you cutting them out for us. Why exclude context? It makes no sense and doesn’t do anyone favors.

        You’re entitled to your opinion. I will however point out that… it’s just a meme.

            All I said was “it’s just a meme”. I’m not mad at you or anyone else for any criticism. I do think some are taking it a little to serious but I’m certainly not upset about it. I’m actually pretty pleased with the response this has received. This popped into my head on my way to work this morning, I made it in Photoshop in about 2 minutes and posted it and now it has over 500 upvotes and made the front page. What’s there to be upset about?

      Thanks for unwittingly continuing the spreading of misinformation on the Internet. It sucks here more because of situations like this.

        If someone is coming to a political meme community looking for accurate information, let’s all be good stewards and direct them to actual reputable news sources.
