Image transcription: A GIF image of sad spunch bob with random PowerPoint-esque transitions. The caption reads: “LGBTQ+ tankies when the dictator they installed throws them in a gulag for ‘sexual deviancy’ rather than rewarding them for their efforts in the revolution”. End transcription.

    Because blind people use software that reads the text of a webpage out to them audibly (or less commonly, through an RBD) but it can’t read the text in an image, because it’s not really “text” at all-- It’s just pixels. So it’ll just be like “uhh and there’s a picture here, that’s all I know.”

    So blind people would not be able to enjoy the meme, which tbh is mostly text-based anyway.
