Left side: Black mirror S01E02 "fifteen million merits" . A guy tries to "break the system" but this backfires and his critic that was supposed to change people's minds is absorbed by it and turned into an entertainment product. The upper-left image shows the moment in the episode where he criticizes the system threatening to kill himself while the bottom one shows the final image of the episode where he how lives in an expensive suite
Right side: "Being ugly : My Experience" A youtube video of a guy explaining how his unattractiveness has biased his life and brought unhappiness upon him. A reason why this became viral, besides the obvious connection by many due to the topic was that a girl commented that she found the guy of the video very cute and they actually became a couple
The meme: It compares both cases implying that the guy on the right was breaking the system but that his cause was "silenced" by providing him a girlfriend and turning him into a channel that lectures people on having hope about the prospect of finding a suitable partner
Thanks Peter!
Time to make a video complaining that no one has ever granted me the ability to turn water into vodka.

Wow! Thanks for the explanation! That's a really great meme that went completely over my head.
