My mom kinda is - she makes a pretty nice bit of money investing; but she also donates most of it. Which well, if I were like her, I'd do the same, so.....

Commies!

Why is there a cubical tree in front of a window in the center? Not enough prims?

That's an odd meme for two reasons.

First, when I read it, something felt vaguely and irritatingly off about it, quite apart from the politics -- like a rhyme that's a bit off, or a badly played note. Anyway, it plays off a false opposition "no one" vs "everyone", when really it should be "no one" vs "someone" (the opposite of there being no one at the door isn't there being everyone at the door, after all)..

So that's the first thing -- stupid political meme features obvious logical error, hold the front page.

The second one is the square tree -- what on earth is it doing there, completely obscuring the windows?

ETA: I'm all in favour of people owning homes like that if they can afford them, but only so long as they're all paying enough in taxes to help ensure decent and affordable housing for everyone who needs it.
