IF YOU DON'T ACTIVELY ENSURE CONSERVATIVES AREN'T WELCOME, YOU CREATE A SAFE SPACE FOR CONSERVATIVES
Overview
This is a two-panel edited meme using assets from the animated series The Simpsons. The top panel features the character Otto Mann, the Springfield bus driver, sitting in the driver's seat of a bus with an exasperated expression, overlaid with white text that reads 'DON'T MAKE ME TAP THE SIGN.'. The bottom panel shows a yellow cartoon hand pointing at a white printed sign with black text that states 'IF YOU DON'T ACTIVELY ENSURE CONSERVATIVES AREN'T WELCOME, YOU CREATE A SAFE SPACE FOR CONSERVATIVES'. The meme communicates the stance that spaces must explicitly exclude people with conservative views to avoid becoming a welcoming environment for them.
Origin notes
This meme uses the widely popular 'Don't Make Me Tap the Sign' reaction meme template, which originates from a scene in the long-running animated sitcom The Simpsons. This specific edited version was sourced from an RSS feed of the X.com (formerly Twitter) account @meme.jpg. It is a modified derivative of the original template, created to share a specific political opinion regarding ideological inclusion in shared spaces.
