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

Protests serve 2 purposes. They act to spread a message and connect people.
They also act as a warning. We are willing to invest effort in this to change things. If you don't change, some of us will put the effort into other methods, some of which are... far more unpleasant for you. We also act as support to the people doing this.
The latter is important. For a good example, look at the Northern Ireland troubles.
