This is a two-panel black and white sarcastic meme. The top panel depicts a WWII soldier holding a rifle standing on the shore of a lake, looking at a German Panzer tank that is partially submerged in the water, with text above parodying the common 'wise mythical entity of the lake' meme trope. The bottom panel is a closeup shot of the sunken tank, with text below delivering the punchline pointing out that well-phrased, seemingly wise metaphors do not make invalid arguments correct. The joke uses the failed, sunken tank as the supposedly wise entity to mock people who rely on overly poetic framing to defend factually wrong positions.

This image is a screenshot of a public post from X (formerly Twitter). At the top, the poster's profile is visible: their display name is Hegel Borg TM, their username is @xxclusionary, and they have a verified blue checkmark, with a profile picture of an edited image of 19th century philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel wearing a gaming headset. The main post text reads: 'I have a mental illness that makes me think that people will change their minds if I present the correct arguments with the appropriate facts and data.' The meme uses sarcastic self-deprecation to make a relatable joke about the common, often frustrating experience of believing that logical evidence and well-reasoned arguments can convince people to change pre-held opinions, framing this naive optimism as a 'mental illness' for comedic effect.

This is a two-panel meme featuring Edd (Double D) from the animated show *Ed, Edd n Eddy*. In the top panel, an excited grinning Double D holds up a red hardcover book labeled 'FACTS'. In the bottom panel, he holds up a sheet of paper that reads 'Disagreeing with someone doesn't make you correct'. The joke satirizes common bad behavior in online debates: many people assume that just disagreeing with an opponent automatically makes their own position correct, which this meme calls out.
