You're the one completely missing here. This meme is ineffective because flip flops are manufactured everywhere and nobody screws them up. So what could have been a slam dunk here is more like OP slamming their forehead on the rim. Anyone who doesn't have their head up their ass or zero clue about how reality works see this and just thinks "nah that's fake" and they're correct in saying that media literacy is dead because this is getting way more genuine engagement than rock bottom low effort propaganda should get.
You're being thick headed.
Most people look at that and go "haha, they're making a joke at America's expense".
The image being fake is irrelevant, it's just a prop to setup the joke.
