    Better than plain tyranny, like adding salt/sugar to lemon water, right?

    I think you should add an extra panel with something like “Actual democracy in transition where the system is not subjected to corporate lobbying or profit maximisation for the few and actually raises the HDI of the people, but has to censure people trying to push corporatocracy”

      The meme wouldn’t work then, liberals don’t actually support what you describe. Thinking something would be good isn’t the same as supporting it, you can’t vibe systems into being. Just because I want 1 million dollars to fall into my lap from thin air doesn’t mean I can actually support that.

        I didn’t say that the extra panel should show agreement/support. I think an extra panel will be more clear

          But the point of the meme is that Liberals denounce other systems like Socialism as “tyranny,” yet support what Leftists would consider weak platitudes yet ultimately tyrannical control from Capital. Adding another panel adds nothing to the message of this meme.
