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

What make them modern?
No dumpster diving in NYC.
Under rules like the New York State Food Donation and Food Scraps Recovery Law, major commercial food waste generators must separate and recycle or donate their food scraps instead of trashing them.
It's still a real health hazard. Stopping dumpster diving is not inherently bad, the bad thing is what causes people to need to dumpster dive in the first place.
Reduce, reuse, recycle programs ought to remove the incentive to dig for free stuff too.
