Political Memes
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
Yeah, basically nobody talking about Iran or the strait or the slush fund amirite?
If you can't hold at least this much in your mind at once it's not our fault.

In actuality that particular score was EA's community team getting roasted for defending loot box bullshit.

Yeah, they often get deleted before that value, and it’s not what I expected of the up-down vote system.
Let's see if this works. Democrats got us here by rigging the primaries against Bernie in 2016 and then approving the genocide in Palestine in 2023.
I don't think this really counts as a Democrat/Neo-liberal forum really. You'll find more in agreement probably than disagreement.
Depending on the time and day and mood, neoliberals do come in larger numbers and downvote to defend the DNC and chant the mantra "vote blue no matter who", while refusing to learn the lessons for their repeated failures of defeating the orange pedophile who should be easy to defeat.
Watch and learn:
Bernie would have been third term president we needed
BuT hE wAsN't pOpUlAr!¡!¡!¡
He's not popular to the committee filled with neoliberals and only allow neoliberals in the primary of course.
This has to be bait. Theres no fucking way you didn't pick the transphobic billionaire property on purpose for this meme about purity tests.
ah yes the whole thing where there can only be one wrong thing at a time and multitasking is a lie. republican logic is at it again.
It’s exactly what happens. The Epstein files are not being talked about much at all.
The problem is that the media (owned by the epstein class) also didn't want to talk about those things. So the algae and UFC are perfect excuses to have something else to talk about that doesn't really hurt trump.
I will never understand Lemmy’s obsession with trying to make the left fight itself.

Ooh that's kinda just what the left is like in general. Some real no true scotsman type shit.
From my own viewpoint as somebody living in Europe but not in the UK (though I lived there for over a decade), there are a lot of people here from places like the US and the UK who think they're Leftwing and yet are just parroting the slogans of the mainstream "supposedly left-of-center whilst in practice hard right" parties with authoritarian tendencies in those countries (Democrats in the US, New Labour in the UK).
People in countries with VERY to the Right Overtoon Windows have been deceived into thinking they're leftwing all the while claiming (again and again, for decades) that leftwingers have an obligation to vote for Hard Neoliberals to stop the Fascists and looking at other human beings and them seeing first and foremost as members of identitarian groups based etnicity, gender or sexual orientation (the exact same perspective as the Fascists) who they claim should be treated differently from other groups whilst calling with no irony that their desired differentiated treatment based solely on etnicity, gender or sexual orientation is "positive" and "fighting for equality" even whilst avoiding the whole "for all without looking at skin color, gender or sexual orientation" Equality part of the real fight for Equality.
There are tons of infighting in the Left, but what we see here in Lemmy is mainly not that but rather liberals from Anglo-Saxon nations thinking they're leftwingers and attacking actual leftwing ideas.
We can definitelly see some infighting between Communists, Socialists, Anarchists and Social Democrats in those places where hexbear hasn't been blocked but the main supposedly leftwing "infighting" we see in Lemmy (especially in the lemmy.world communities) is right-of-center (neo)liberals from English-speaking countries vs people with policy preferences mainly fitting the Social Democrat spectrum who aren't even ideological Social Democrats.
(All of this IMHO, of course)
Rising awareness is not necessary. The politicians know. That's why the pond and WH UFC are in the news.
The greater problems, how can society solve them without politicians?
Wouldn't the kind of person who is involved with organizing solutions to political problems be a politician by definition?
Funny idea: what if Republicans are making these ultimately inconsequential blunders to divert attention from the greater problems?
That said, the green pool and UFC are good meme template materials to use to raise awareness of said problems.
If that is so then they are quite successful. Dems supporters are busy on green pond and WH Ufc while core problems like war, genocide, oligarchy, ICE, Epstein files have taken a backseat.
Have they, or has most of the media gone and talked about those new things and you're also falling for news cycle bias?
I don’t think this is true.
The whole sudden circus about this stinks of Flood The Zone.
both of those things are distractions by MSM and AI bots from the actual things, BBB and epstein files which bothers trump and his pedo-buddies quite a bit. reddit and msms love to keep pushing whatever gaffes hes putting out.
BBB
The Better Business Bureau? Where's that acronym bot...
It could also be the Big Beautiful Bill (aka Trump Tax Cuts)
Hold up. Are you telling me Trump and the right are doing bad things aside from mismanaging a pool and holding a tacky event? That's news to me! /s
Seriously though. Pick what you want if you're going to highlight the corruption and ineptitude and inhumanity and all that; the goal is changing (admittedly, very stupid) minds and what works for some won't work for others. If "look at what they did to our historical in monuments!" convinces some boomer moderate who's all about tradition and history, go for it.
So... You want us to bring back covfefe?
The focus on dunking and scoring points with your bodies on social. You get to feel vindicated without anything having to change. Actually messy positive change would be a lot more uncomfortable for some.
