"And then we told them, deregulation frees billionaires to take care of the planet more efficiently"

This meme brought to you by the Heritage Foundation: donβt forget to vote red because you can trust us. /s
I'm confused by the group of people chosen. What's the specific meme above referencing?
Edit: I feel like the upvotes are assuming this is the base picture and just blindly upvoting it. The faces are replaced, which means it's intentionally choosing those individuals. I'd like to see the OP actually defend the argument behind choosing those individuals. The closest could maybe be the Biden administration asking Facebook to prevent false narratives and fake information, which I'll admit is gray area at best, but even then, it's only tangental to the post in topic. I've never seen anyone attack free speech in the name of free speech except for the right. They're literally banning books in public libraries and claiming private entities need to carry speech they don't like (unless you're a baker or hypothetical web designer, in which case, no you're cool with not publishing speech you don't like)
Yeah it's just some right wing gaslighting. The picture should have Musk, Trump, Desantis...
This is classic right wing "humor". They get butt hurt because we make fun of them so they think that humor just means hurting the other guys. They try, and fail, and we laugh at them which makes them even more butt hurt.
The group is made up of the right wings favorite enemies.
Bill gates supposedly is for population control lookup Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation conspiracy theories.
Fauci likely does not need explanation.
George Soros has replaced Rothschild has the figurehead of "elders of Zion" style antisemitic conspiracy theories.
Itβs referencing the lack of actual brain wave activity of the OP
It's an older meme, so it's possible OP just googled a quick template and didn't realize it wasn't the original.
This must be the shittiest version of this meme that I've ever seen...
Why the fuck is Bill Gates there btw?
Reee vaccines REEEEEEE
Hold up. There's a bit of nuance here because we literally had some guy hawking poison during the whole pandemic.
Like I get the sentiment here but the height of the pandemic was wild. There were some folk "just talking" trying to make a quick dime hawking things and thoughts that were getting folks killed.
Locally to me, we had Phil Valentine who was big in the "I'm just saying this whole thing is a big hoax" all the way up till he drowned in his own fluid filling up his lungs. How embarrassing. And you know if you call the local talk radio now and mention his name, they just hang up on you, because they want to act like Mr. Valentine didn't happen.
So yeah, there were a few social networks a little too eager to please the government. But at the same time, we had some folks "just talking" about something that went from nothing to the third leading cause of death in less than a year.
So I think it's worthwhile to mention those "free speech" folks like Herman Cain and Phil Valentine that some like to conveniently skip over.
*Hocking
It's hawking. But I'm totally glad you said something because I've never thought about the difference so I'm glad you made me check myself.
EDIT: Also I can sort of see an argument for hocking. Since that's trying to pawn off something. Why is our language so confusing?
*hawking
Not sure what the meme is referring to, but this is actually true in some aspects.
If there are 100 people in a room and 1 person is just super loudly talking the entire time, it silences out 99 people. The ability to talk of the 99 is silenced by the 1. If you limit the amount the loudest can talk, you give the other 99 more freedom of speech. From a utilitarian view, you gained more freedom of speech as a whole by reducing the freedom of speech for one.
People who say things like these generally conflate the concepts of "I want to remove others' right to freedom of speech" with "my freedom of speech was taken away" when they often want to do the former.
Its referring to a conspiracy theory that gates, soros, fauci and whoever else is famous amongst altrighters for (supposedly) trying to go against their white nationalist ideas, are in collusion.
It's referencing the "Paradox of Tolerance".
Google some of the George Soros conspiracies to see what corner of the internet this comes from.

I'd rather not tbh...
Probably best for your mental health. I just commented it because you said you dont know what its referring to.
If you know about the Rothschild conspiracy theories or really any other "Elders of Zion" type conspiracy theory then you can probably already guesstimate where this goes.
I dunno if this interests anyone, but this is basically how a story Iβm writing ends: The gracefully defeated villain gives a last will and testament to the hero that killed him, to be read for his death. The killer tears it up and scatters the pieces, saying βYouβve had enough of a voice in the years before all this happened. Itβs everyone elseβs turn now.β
Did Alex Jones tell you that?
It's just some guy going "rich ppl bad upvotes to the left"
I want memes not political commentary!
I got a dollar that says this was originally made as a chud meme. Too many right-wing fear mongering conspiratorial bogeymen in one spot
ah yes my favorite kind of recursion
