There’s a bizarre line between celebrity culture and politics that I think many don’t realize is damaging. Politicians are an entirely separate category of people because they are not responsible for entertaining us. They are responsible for bettering society and making the country better than before. But when we play into this whole “brat” and “she’s just

a girl” thing with Kamala Harris for example, we infantilize them and look past VERY serious issues. I’ve definitely been part of the community that has laughed at memes about Joe Biden or Donald Trump, but I can draw the line between the joke and reality. Some people can’t and as a result these politicians stop being held accountable and their policies...

...become “literally me/same/iconic” when they affect or hurt real people.
