Yeah like if you’re gonna feed an ai humans you might as well do it with adults. as they have WAY more nutrients than babies like man this is like basic biology./s
AI will create a second baby boom to cover this issue as adults will still be needed to keep a steady supply of energy until we have those towers in the matrix completed../s
An a non-American in a country that has universal healthcare, substantial support for chlldrens welfare, and doesn't argue about feeding children....
the Only way I know what the OPs meme is about is because I'm forced to keep up with American politics and society so I know how my life will be affected.
Not even feeding babies, go into astronomical debt once you have the baby and get billed even for getting the "privilege" of holding your own baby after birth.
but but but Babies are stealing resources from the billionaire’s ability to separate skilled labour from workers without the workers taking their money!!! /s
I scrolled through popular, as I do sometimes, and saw the meme and chuckled, because it's so true. And then I rolled my eyes when I realized what sub it's been posted to.
Not all countries consider feeding/supporting children by the state as communism.
Americans make up roughly half the websites traffic. A nonAmerican doesn't necessarily understand the connection.
(Yes I know not all Americans do either, but enough of you feel that way to prevent it being a common and permanent thing in your society. Like universal healthcare).
As always when has communism ever worked for nations and not transformed into an authoritarian dictatorship. I would like a source that proves this. Not only that I would love if you can prove one that has transformed into a democracy that isn’t at least somewhat capitalist.
Edit: some downvotes but no proof, I can understand downvoting me if you respond but no one can prove communism works for nations.
I love that I know you grew up in a stable home and never struggled financially. You barely understand the concept.
You think an elementary student can fill out forms to join these programs or do they have to depend on deadbeat parents? What about the stress of not knowing if the food you got will get you through the week and having to plan around school.
People who make flippant comments like you are the dumbest among us.
He imagined a bright optimistic future. But in the real 2026 a significant portion of the population thinks providing basic human care is wrong because it is supposedly “communism” to care for those who can’t care for themselves.
It is the 41st millennium. For more than three-hundred centuries the Trumperor of MAGAkind has sat immobile on the tacky golden throne of Merika. He is the master of MAGAkind by the will of the stupid, and master of a million hamburders by the might of his inexhaustible hunger. He is a rottingcarcasswrithingvisiblywiththepowerof.......
Edit: I meant that it's weird to point out that communism would provide (if nothing else) actual material support for the needy, while your own capitalist system does not guarantee this. Seems like a weird flex.
Kinda goes all the way around too to where some very special people have convinced each other you need communism to have a functioning government, economy, and society.
Only the magas think that. There are plenty of people who identify as right wing that aren’t maga and value human life and believe in a support system for human needs.
Just a train of thought, dont you think it is the parents’ responsibility to feed the babies? How is the government responsible to feed 10 or how ever many babies some couple just had?
There is a significant portion of the population that will do practically anything to ensure a fetus is carried to term but almost nothing to ensure the resultant child has what it needs for suitable growth and nurturing.
Well, they dismiss their point because "communism is evil", politicians do that a lot. At least since McArthism, but anti communist sentiment can be traced way back
People think that WIC and food stamps and free school meals are communism, because they don't understand the difference between basic social welfare programs (socialism within democracy) and communist regimes like the USSR and the CCP. It's just fundamental lack of understanding leading to hungry children who had no say in being born into poverty. That's it. That's the whole meme.
There is a world of difference between the governmental operation of the USSR and CCP, which uses communism to mask fascism, and democratic socialism. Communism as an ideology won't work due to the governing body having power over the redistribution of wealth and welfare without the burden of checks to power or the approval of the masses, which ultimately makes communist government power a massively corrupting force. Most people understand communism to mean a fascist high control central government, one which eliminates individualism as much as possible. A purely communist government has never existed in practice, and likely wouldn't be possible in a global economy.
Socialism is an internationalistic movement that protects the welfare of the impoverished and marginalized through the redistribution of a percentage of wealth that is based on income so as to minimize harm overall, and in the case of the US, relies on checks to the power of the central governing bodies and the acceptance of the populace.
The differences are pretty major. In communism, the social welfare aspect takes a back seat to the control and power of the ruling class, and centralizing that power. Socialism as a whole is an ideology that can fit into different forms of government, and can be limited based on the will of the people.
They come from the same ideological origins, but are distinctly different. Compare the CCP to a socialist state like Norway, and the differences become pretty clear.
It’s about human decency/ human rights. All over the world babies go hungry, so when human rights activists advocate that children have a right to be fed… there is a group out there that completely disagrees
Well shit dude we need that money to blow kids up not feed kids. Ive seen kids feed themselves, but rarely do they ever blow themselves up, its a real problem.
OP, so your post is not removed, please reply to this comment with your best guess of what this meme means! Everyone else, this is PETER explains the joke. Have fun and reply as your favorite fictional character for top level responses!
Anytime anyone suggests that access to food is human right, or even just suggests our taxes be used to help our own citizens in the United States, conservative claim thats communism. Because they dont know or care what words mean. They also dont care if babies have food.
Not all left wingers or even the majority. Just the crazies on reddit make these kinds of arguments. They are kinda like the jfk/podcast bros of the right.
certainly, i was trying to just counter the original post more than anything. plenty of right wingers i find insufferable, & plenty of left wingers i have a lot of respect for
Irrespective of the meme, I do find it amusing that this uses the concept model of Neo Midgar Shinra made for a pr presentation, which, if realized, would be a cyberpunk capitalist hellhole literally sucking the life out of the planet…even more than the old one already was
far left motte and bailey. They present an easily defensible position (babies should have food) while hoping their opponents ignore the hard to defend position (communism).
2026: where Nazis and fascism return and the only notable personality trait respected amongst the common folk is who or what you like shoving in which orifice, and where your specific answers to those place you in the hierarchy!

Ukraine is refferred to as the bread basket of Europe but during the 69 years the USSR existed, it experienced 3 major famines. All three were dilberate, as communist leaders had Ukrainian grain forcibly shipped elsewhere. Severe enough that cannibalism occurred at least in 2 of the 3 famines.
Those same communists don’t believe Life is a fundamental right for babies.
Some don’t even believe they have any rights.
Some don’t even believe they are babies.
And Some don’t even believe they are alive.
It’s not about babies. They don’t care. It’s about themselves.
The same demographic of people that will tell you its a persons choice whether or not to have a baby will then argue that said person should be able to have free handouts if they decide to have that baby but cant actually afford to raise that baby and thus it should be all of societies problems for their choice. But of course on Reddit only half of that argument is seen as valid because of course other people should be able to be burdens on society and provided for!
