Wait... How is this a meme? It just seems like a PSA.

And if it is, why is it worthy of this community?

there isn't really anything stating that posts should be memes, the name is a bit misleading because it came from whitepeopletwitter, which people wanted to make more general. Any microblog post is theoretically allowed as long as it follows the rules in the sidebar. This arguably counts as brand promotion/guerilla marketing, although I think the message is divorced enough from the brand to be acceptable.

Fuck that shit, I have news and politics subscriptions for that. There is no worse way to get info or opinions about actually important stuff than microblog.

Sounds like this is not the place for you then.

I looked at the current posts and nope, looks like the op just chose something shit/posted it to an inappropriate community.

I had to do the same thing. I spend a little time each day blocking and filtering out political posts here and I really didn't want to block this community.
