Translation for the condoms on the left:
Asiatic condoms
I have a suspicion about what they're trying to say by that, and it's racist AF.
Not sure exactly what they think their target demographic is for this washroom.
Sorry it's not really a meme, but I didn't know where else to post it, and I HAD to share.
Why the hell is this in c/memes? Can't wait for the excuses on this one.
Mindless upvotes for garbage posts. Love it.
Well wait no longer: Because Lemmy is small. posts that would have gone to a vibrant niche subreddit in Reddit, instead get posted to one of the few large communities, because the niche communities don't exist, are hard to find, or are dead.
So a completely unrelated post belongs here because Lemmy is small?
🙄 I know my name says "pedantic" but give me a break.
Because Lemmy is small, posts in the same general categories get posted to the only large community in that category.
Once there are living communities where people can go to post their shit, then you can come in with the purity police.
Except this isn't part of the same general category. It's not a meme. At all. The only thing related is that pictures get posted in this sub, and you had a picture.
Could have posted in a Canadian or shitpost or 196 magazine or something.
196 or hmm would be good communities for this, quite the find lol
Is there a hmm community? I loved the unbridled chaos of that in the bygone era.
I don't understand? I see these kind of vending machines often in gas station restrooms all the time.
I'd expect it in a city, wouldn't have expected it way out in the middle of nowhere.
Combined with the apparent casual racism directed at people who are stereotypically xenophobic, only heightened my confusion
Where's the racism? Is it the vague Asian marketed stuff? It's a stretch I guess, of that's it.
If they're trying to say they are small condoms then what's the issue with that? On average Asian penises are smaller. Statistics aren't exactly racist.
Even if it were true that Asian penises are smaller on average, to call small penises "Asian" is racist.
It's like even if white people were dumber on average, it'd be racist to call all dumb people "white".
Or even if men were fatter on average, it'd be sexist to call all fat people "men".
But it's not just that one. ALL of the items are bizarre for a basement washroom of a rural Quebec gas station.
You don't HAVE to share. You seem like the kind of person, that forces their beliefs in others. Not a very nice trait.
The hypocrisy is strong in this comment.
Would you please explain why? I did not publish a post, I commented on your misplaced one. Noone has anything against your picture. It is NOT a meme. There is a time and a place for everything. This community is not for pictures you find interesting. It is NOT your personal blog. I hope you can find a quiet minute to reflect about your content. I hope you will get calmer in the future. All the best.
You didn't HAVE to share your opinion. And you're forcing your opinions onto others. Exactly the things you accused me of.
Additionally, you're making judgements of other people based on almost no information. Take a good long look in the mirror
I'm not saying you're wrong about my post being misplaced, just that making judgements about me personally is fucking insane. And telling me to be calmer? 🤣 go read what you wrote again and tell me you didn't come in hot like some kind of Lemmy purity police.
A lot of conflict can be resolved by reading something carefully. I never judged you for anything, I said, it seems like you are that kind of person. Based on your reaction I stand by my point. I sincerely hope that you are a nicer person in real life as my picture of you.
My problem with your post does not concern you on a personal level. It's more that you know, that your content is in the wrong community. You even state that in your post description. Nevertheless you still post it. I did not say, that I had to share my opinion. You did. That is not a valid argument. We all can control our emotions. I did it to inform you about rules. You obviously do not care about that. Just look at the comments underneath your post. How many of them are telling you that your picture does not belong in memes? Yet you still think you are right. I find your rant quite amusing. Have a nice day :)
Idk why you think this has to be black and white. I know it's not the ideal community for my post. But I could not find an appropriate (living) community for it. While Lemmy is small, I think we all need to give a little leeway about perfectly matching the criteria for a community.
Idk man, it seems like the people yelling at me are the angry ones. I'm just asking people to be a bit less hostile and a bit more lenient while users are new to the platform and still learning... but it seems like that's simply intolerable to some folks.
Hmm, there are four kinds of merch but three knobs. How?
The way it works is if you place 2$ you get the chocolate flavored condoms, but if you instead put 2$ then you get the Asian condoms.

Makes sense. At first I thought you have to turn your coin around.
Of course not. Putting the coin the other way could break the machine and then you won't get anything.
