Aren't there enough political "humor" communities?

Climate Change isn't political, it's a simple fact.

You and I both know that. I'm just asking, aren't there better suited communities? Does everything need to be doom and gloom on a reasonably light-hearted memes community? It isn't a meme.

I don't see why the meme is doom and gloom.

And we're just answering - nope, this one is perfectly well suited - you can always block OP if you really can't stand seeing this post on your timeline

It isn't a meme.

It objectively is - it's a slightly different take on the "The What" meme

Whether you think the meme is funny is a different matter - but I don't see how you could argue it's "not a meme".

Given that the Republicans have adopted the stance that it's not real and/or not our fault, I think it still counts as political. Even if it shouldn't be.

Oh, so I guess video games are political since "viDeO gAmES cAuSE viOLenCE". Everything is political, therefore all posts should go to the political community? 🤔
