Usually memes follow a certain template; they have an "inside joke" type of vibe. I understand the urge in defending this post because of its message, but note that this is in no way a "meme". It's merely a collage of two unsourced images and portrays no comedic effect (quite the opposite in fact). I find it even hard to classify it as a political meme. At this point it's mere propaganda regardless of wether it is for good or ill. Surely there are more suitable communities for this post than here.

And c/non-political memes shouldn't have been a thing in the first place if this community wasn't being misused.

Your point is solid, and I am at no ability to argue such right now, nor do I want to (kinda lies, I want to be right, but ya can't win them all). So you suggest twisting it with a more humorous tone?

Non-political memes exists for some reason I have no idea, this meme one works just fine, I think they just like posting in the other one. Even the creator of this post has used the nonpolitical community once or twice.

I appreciate your sportsmanship.

All I'm saying is there should be some effort put into a meme; what OP made here was a low effort political statement and could have found a more suitable place to post it other than here.

Even the creator of this post has used the nonpolitical community

Of course he would, hence asserting that !memes has become a political arena.

If people interacted like this the word would be a better place.
