Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

MODERATORS
When someone tells me they don't do politics I always answer: "I see… So you're a conservative then."
I used to think that, but I have experienced a lot of it recently where they're not actually conservative bigots, they're just dumb
To the stupid, politics is scary and overwhelming, because they live in a small world of simple answers to complex problems
Often, this leads to conservative bigotry because social media etc. offers those simple answers
I live somewhere that is small, quiet, simple and beautiful
I have had to reassess my thoughts.
Yes: "I'm not political" does come from those who have privilege, but unlike 'Murica, when they have it explained how they benefit from others suffering, the usual response is (dare I say it...) something of an awakening
