Almost three years ago, one Imgflip user, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, created a stream. This momentous moment came as a great beacon light of hope to 8,000 people who had been seared in the flames of boredom and who sought to post memes and share their lives. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their boredom.
But three years later, MSMG has changed. Three years later, the life of the MSMG user is sadly crippled by the manacles of homophobia and the chains of toxicity. Three years later, MSMG lives on a lonely island of hate in the midst of a vast website of loving prosperity. Three years later we are languished in the corners of society and find ourselves in exile in our own Imgflip. And so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition. In a sense we've gathered here to cash a check.
When the architects of our stream, our OGs, declared this new stream and set her cornerstone, they were signing a promissory note to which every Imgflip user who comes upon us shall know. This note was a promise that all men — yes, Black men, Christian men, hell, even gay men, as well as other men and women, — would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of shidposting.
It is obvious today that MSMG has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her users are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, MSMG has given the people a bad check, a check which has come back marked insufficient funds. A wave of hatred, of toxicity, of denial — of unbasedness shrouded in the veil of the Gigachad.
But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt.
We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this stream. And so we've come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.
We have also come to his hallowed spot to remind MSMG of the fierce urgency of now. This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. The time is now, MSMG. If we wish to change, if we wish to make MSMG the great land it once was, just three years ago, the time to act is now.
