My opinion:
I think this community should ban political memes, and instead have another community for only political memes. I’m from Costa Rica and I don’t care about the USA politics or stuff
I am also from the 97 fuckin percent of every human on the planet that couldn’t give a shit about US politics
Right? It’s such a US way of thinking to assume the entire world needs to hear about your issues.
“Political Memes” is extremely vague. I opened the community, and this was the 3rd meme that came up. Just to show you that it doesn’t take much to find an example that really blurs the line of what would be a political meme and what isn’t.
You don’t really get that by banning a topic, but rather by fostering a culture where that sort of thing is frowned upon.
No its not, when I close Lemmy it disappears (IMAGINE BELIEVING THAT POSTING MEMES IS “CHANGING THE STATUS QUO”) 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

No, that’s not what they mean.
Seriously, OP is straw-manning. There’s not this much politics on other sites. Lemmy has a ton of tankies so everything is about communism here
They need to more precisely say what they mean, then.
The left can’t meme
Go blame immigrants
I reject this! This sounds edgy but muddies the water and distracts as to recognize what politics is. Politics is everything regarding decision-making in groups! not more not less. Recognize when that’s the case and fight!
I think our definitions of politics are fundamentally different.
I would say politics is the struggle for power.
Power is an underlying factor across all of society so politics affects everything.
Even chosen linux distro?
Damn
I work in the government and let me tell you: Yes
I once got warned in a discord server for being political. Brought up that everything was politics and they backed off.
About a week later I got hints that they might be a bit of a nazi bar which was confirmed when I called it out.
