    Oooof almost a good meme.

    Shrek 4 was released on in 2 July 2010 in the UK. The Tories had won the general election by then and formed a coalition with the Lib Dems.

    How can we trust you?

      Released then means it was already written approved and filmed/animated prior. Can’t expect them to wait for years to edit it.

        Well tbf, in some cases, factually incorrect memes are a way to quickly spread misinformation and can definitely be bad for that reason.

        I think the original commenter was at least somewhat joking in this particular instance, though. “How can we trust you?” seems like an odd thing to seriously ask a shitposter. I could be wrong, tone is hard to read online.

      If we can’t trust the meme creators, or the reposters, who can we trust?

      (the comment thread!) Thanks for doing the due diligence!
