    Because it’s a meme and its creator wanted it to for shits and giggles.

    You’re literally in a political propaganda community created, solely modded, and near-exclusively posted to by the OP. Memes like this are digital propaganda leaflets designed to be easily digested and distributed, and this one’s entire point rests on the legitimacy of the quote. So no, I don’t give it a pass for “lol meme ecksdee”.

    It shouldn’t be controversial to hold people making propaganda to any kind of standard in a world where “just memes lol” carried Donald Trump to power twice.
