Meta Reddit Meme About Post Removal Gets Removed

This is a screenshot of a removed Reddit post from the r/memes community. The post contains an embedded meme that uses two viral wildlife photos: a wide-eyed monkey staring directly at the camera, labeled 'Me posting literally anything on Reddit', and a menacing lion hiding in the dark background behind it, labeled 'Insecure neckbeards' (referring to overzealous Reddit moderators). The central punchline of the meta joke is that the very post sharing this meme about unfair arbitrary post removal on Reddit was itself removed by r/memes moderators, as confirmed by the official removal notice shown below the embedded content. The original poster added the text 'See what I mean?' above the meme to highlight this ironic, self-fulfilling coincidence.

The post shows the user's multiple attempts to share a meme that is repeatedly removed by subreddit moderators. The meme itself uses the popular two-animal meme template: a wide-eyed, anxious monkey in the well-lit foreground is labeled 'Me posting literally anything on Reddit', while a laughing lion hidden in the dark background is labeled 'Insecure neckbeards', a jab at the subreddit moderators who keep removing the user's posts. Multiple 'post removed by r/memes moderators' notifications are visible below the embedded meme. The user writes 'Round 3, I guess.' as the initial post title, then adds 'Round 4! Let's go!' at the bottom, announcing they will continue reposting their content despite repeated removals.

The notification features a red circle with a white hammer icon at the top, followed by the text 'r/bannedsubreddits has been banned from Reddit' in bold white font.

A large blue button labeled 'Go Back' is centered beneath the text, with links to 'Reddit's Content Policy', 'User Agreement', and 'Privacy Policy' in smaller blue text at the bottom.

This two-panel meme uses scenes from the animated TV show *King of the Hill* to satirize users of Reddit's r/memes subreddit. The top panel displays a screenshot of the r/memes post submission interface, showing key community rules: Rule 6 prohibits reposts/stolen memes, and Rule 2 bans political content, alongside a note requiring an attachment. The bottom panel features Hank Hill holding a rolled paper (implying rule guidelines) with the punchline, "If those kids could read they'd be very upset," while the label "r/memes users" points to a group of kids watching from a window. The joke mocks the common complaint that r/memes users frequently break rules because they fail to read or acknowledge them, exaggerating this ignorance with Hank's iconic line.
