The fun of Lemmy’s “all” is that you see posts from all around the world. Today my feed is suddenly full of memes in German about an old white guy with an eyepatch. Who is he, and why is he suddenly a meme?

    The guy with the eye patch is Olaf Scholz, the German chancellor. He fell during his morning jog, and got himself a black eye and some scratches. And he was quite pro-active, he just told people to go ahead, he’d like to se the memes made out of it. Best he could do in that situation.
