Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

The amount of hate I get every time when I call out political opinions posted as "memes" is incredible. Every time it's either some mental gymnastics about how it actually counts as meme or alternatively ad-hominem accusations about my underlaying motives of only calling out left-wing political memes and never right-wing ones (I wonder why).
The truth is that my feed is almost exclusively politics despite me blocking every single political instance other than the ones for general news. I bet there's even a community dedicated to political memes but no. Some people absolutely have to inject their political views everywhere.
Just gonna leave out the detail that you go to communities that are about the content you're seeing to complain about said content?
Still too stubborn to just admit you don't know what a meme is I see
I just had a look, because I remembered there was a "non-political memes" community. Turns out it's on lemmy.ml (!nonpolitical_memes@lemmy.ml). Not the biggest fan of lemmy.ml due to the instance-wide bans: https://feddit.nl/post/16246531
I guess I might open a discussion on !fedigrow@lemm.ee to discuss a potential new community. Probably next year.
