I cannot understand why so many people in the world listen more to a populist politician on health issues than to researchers? I go to the doctor with my complaints and not to the mayor.

The first thing that we wanted to know was which meme about 2020 stood out for Know Your Meme’s Senior Editor Matt personally as the most accurate and funniest so far. 

“This is a tough question. The first one to come to mind is ‘Tested Positive for Missing the Homies,’ which is something that I think had very wide appeal during the coronavirus quarantine. I have to admit, I am also suffering from this affliction. What can I say? I miss my homies. I think about that meme a lot,” Matt told Bored Panda.

However, the topic of humor during a deadly pandemic can be touchy. On the one hand, humor and laughter always go hand in hand and help people keep their hope burning strong during times of crisis. On the other hand, the Covid-19 pandemic has affected a lot of people who might not think that the coronavirus is something to take lightly.

“I think I need to take this on a case-by-case basis,” Matt explained. “There are plenty of great coronavirus memes and plenty of bad ones. I think when it comes to a situation like that, one that affects everyone on a global scale, it's kind of fair game. Of course, there's a line, I think, when you start mocking other people's experiences with the virus.”

He added that nearly anything can be funny but the context surrounding a joke makes all the difference. We were also interested to know if Matt thought there was any way that the different sides of the aisle could find common ground.

“There's not any reconciling this point. People will always offend and others will always be offended. I think that most people should just be conscious about what they're meme-ing and what the subtext of the meme is. If people do take offense, try and understand why. It's possible to make jokes about sensitive topics, but you have to listen to your audience in order to get there.”

Finally, we wanted to get Matt’s take about the second half of 2020 and whether he thought the global situation would improve. Unfortunately, he wasn’t too optimistic. “Sorry to say, it's not looking good. We're currently in the middle of a global pandemic that's killed more than 400,000 people, so I think for many people it's probably going to continue being pretty painful.”

He added: “Oh, and there's a US election coming up, which are usually calm, orderly events with no problems, partisanship, or societal ruptures. Sorry to be a bummer!”

I don't get it. Wearing a mask isn't for your safety lady, it's for the other people that are actually at risk. It's not even a hassle, you put it on for like 20 minutes to go shopping and then you're done

Disgusting. She will tell you it's her right, it's all a hoax, and the fact that it doesn't protect HER is the reason she doesn't wear it. Normal humans would be ashamed to be so openly selfish.

What the hell is so terrible about wearing a textile mask that weighs about 10 grams? I can't understand it! It doesn't just protect you from Covid or other germs, it can protect you from that other terrible (and often dismissed) danger: AIR POLLUTION! If you don't care about or recognize the threat of a virus or bacteria, at least take advantage of breathing in air with fewer poisonous particulates.

When I'm in a store that requires masks and I see people who have pulled them down once they're inside, I purposefully cough inside mine when I'm around them so that it will hopefully freak them out. Ionno, I like to mess with them, if I can.

Yup. People in Ohio were driving to another county to shop when masks were required in certain counties. Now that the Governor "strongly encourages" (STILL doesn't require) masks in the whole state, they are driving to adjacent states to shop. If our orange non-leader would wear a mask, his idiot supporters would too. Maybe this will cut down on the number of his supporters.
