i learned recently that this is a false premise; the frogs will get out when the water gets too warm for them. which imo makes its proliferation even more apt; it makes sense that they would, but we've so used to the narrative that we keep this factoid going without questioning it.
Yeah, even I know when to get out of the Jacuzzi
They waited too long and the water has gone down too far and they can't escape
i think its a good way to illustrate how 'they' change things for the worse incrementally so we get used to it. and not much else, it does its job.
not only that imo, with this extra layer it serves to illustrate how the complacency is not innate. everybody has a breaking point, but we have been told that we will just take it if it is gradual enough.
This hits hard
I think it hits slowly
Charitably, the frog is actually saying "I don't like discussing our looming annhilation."
Or, I don't talk politics to YOU. I talk politics all the time, even people I know hard disagree with me on major things. The thing is, we can stay civil, if hard facts are introduced that prove a point one person is making, or show why someone's idea is wrong, it will be actually considered. When I say this, it is usually because I know that person can't do this, or I am in an environment where this can hurt my life, like work.
Memes are so frustrating when they serve not only progressives but also crazy right truthers.

The font doesn't even look so bad and yet it is helpful.
I’m not dyslexic and if you didn’t tell me that font was for treating I would have just thought it’s a cute stylized font
