    It’s a funny meme, but I dislike the usage of anarchist/communist symbols on it, as it looks like we may be supporting the guy. He may had a few interesting insights, but he was also a reactionary who chose to bomb more or less randomly chosen individuals instead of organizing and actually working towards systemic change.

      I don’t think this meme condones Ted. You can even interpret it as mocking him

        There was a hammer and sickle at the bottom of the picture. The author kindly removed it after my suggestion. I have no problem with the meme. You are right that the meme can be interpreted that way.
