    I am getting tired of this meme. It is basically complaint about people talking about world events unless they are “experts”.

    We should look to experts for our sources of information but it is a bit shirt to mock normal people for talking about the world around them imo

      I am sorry that you interpret this meme as either a complaint or mockery towards others. I can see why that interpretation would not be funny. I interpret the meme to be about becoming obsessed with current topics of importance. I found it funny because I identify very strongly with the guy!

    I’ll have you know I have a phd in the history of the USSR and a masters in geopolitics as well as several years of experience as a Russian foreign diplomat. You think this is a joke?

    Yup, I can see the “experts” coming out of the woodworks on every local news site. Sickening is what it is. What’s happening right now is horrifying and priority #1 for these people is being right on the internet.

    Funny though our ukranian colleagues themselves never speak about the subject. They must not be aware of the situation.
