Text on the meme
Now the very tracks are composed of human beings. They thrash and wail, begging for mercy from the machine that uses their bodies to move forward. There is no dilemma, no problem, because there is no resolution, no choice. The world works as it works. Things are as they are.
What it means

A surreal black-and-white comic shows a machine moving forward on tracks made of suffering human beings, while a tiny person stands inside a giant circular track. The punchline is bleak fatalism: there is no dilemma or choice because reality simply continues as it is. People send it as an absurd, nihilistic reaction to situations where the system is cruel but seems impossible to change.
