The meme plays on the political concept of anti-neoliberalism—a stance that opposes the free-market capitalism and policies associated with Ronald Reagan. The text "No one: Me at thanksgiving:" sets up a scenario where a character (the boy at the bottom) is so opposed to a specific historical figure that he views him as a moral "devil."
By referencing "Ronald regan," the meme highlights a fundamental disagreement with neoliberalism, suggesting that the policies of the figure in the grey suit (who is a character from the show The Boy Who Wasn't There) are economically destructive and morally corrupt. The joke implies that a person in a high-society setting like Thanksgiving is so morally bankrupt or ideologically opposed to these systems that they feel they are a "devil."

The meme is a commentary on the societal pressure to conform to traditional Thanksgiving values, particularly in the context of anti-neoliberalism. The image features a scene from the animated series "The Boondocks" where the character of the "Boondocks" is expressing his disdain for the idea of a traditional Thanksgiving dinner. The text overlayed on the image reads "No one: Me at Thanksgiving" which implies that the character is the only one who is not participating in the traditional Thanksgiving activities. The text is then followed by "Ronald Regan was the devil" which is a satirical reference to the former president's reputation as a symbol of neoliberalism and the idea that he was a "devil" in the eyes of the anti-neoliberal movement.
