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

I love that disclaimer. I feel like I need to put it on everything. People seem quite incapable of separating descriptive and normative statements on here.
Sometimes I feel like people have misinterpreted all my social critiques as advocacy for the things I was critiquing.
Like I'll point something out, say "Society tends to do such-and-such," implying, "and that's wrong," but what people hear instead is "as it should."
Like, I could explicitly state "and that's wrong" all the time, but sometimes that would get a "no shit" reaction, or possibly come off as performative.
Sometimes there's just no winning...
