Yeah I am not sure I get where op is even coming from here.

Out of the top 20 of all time, only 5 are even about American politics at all, and arguably 2 of those 5 are not American specific.

Where I'm from, if you're a conservative, leftist women won't fuck you either.

Edit: Ok, I went deeper and kept scrolling (this is honestly a good community, with good memes lol, glad to be here) and, I'm just eyeballing it here, but less than 1 in 5 posts even applies to American politics, and less than half of those is exclusive to it. So honestly, wtf op?

partially my fault i recently made a bad post which poked fun at certain users. who come into us politics posts and blame americans for their own suffering for not having a better system calling them lazy etc. i was literally just like hey that’s not nice lots of americans especially young ones haven’t had a say in their government. comments immediately turned sour and i got called names for “ruining 196” 🙁(even though it’s like always been this way). i deleted the post because i agree it was a bit mean spirited on reflection.

but i made a better one that was more to the point and has been better received. 🙂
