This meme depicts the extreme stoicism of Reagan and Thatcher to mock the coldness of free-market ideology. The text suggests that their "stony-faced" demeanor was the terrifying reaction to a crisis, implying that their rigid policies left people in a state of "hell." From an anti-neoliberal perspective, this suggests a critique of the very system they championed—arguing that their commitment to absolute cold calculation over human empathy was so extreme that it looked like a place of pure suffering.

The meme is a humorous commentary on the perceived societal shift towards neoliberalism and the subsequent feeling of disillusionment and anger among certain groups. The image features a still from the 2015 film "The Revenant" where a character is brutally attacked by a bear, with the caption "When you've just arrived in hell and that couple in the bar gives you that look". The text is meant to convey a sense of being a new arrival in hell, where the couple in the bar is giving you a disapproving or judgmental look, implying that you're not quite fitting in with the hellish environment.
