Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
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.
No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.

Look at the results: one of the lowest retirement ages is Europe, universal healthcare, very progressive tax system. Maybe if Americans disconnected Joe Manchin from the electrical grid and made Washington DC a no go zone once in a while they would actually get something done.
Voting for the lesser of two evils is still voting for evil.
Yes, like the insurrection? Always remember, both sides can do that.
Edit: Oh so now violent revolution attempts are not OK.
All this guillotine and revolution rhetoric suddenly just memes? Like the slurs in ye' old gamer chats?
Then what is protest good for, if not getting votes?
Insurrection != political protest.
Do cause a ruckus in the city streets.
Do not attempt to invade the capitol and/or murder the government.
Not even a little murder? Please?
Keep murder in your back pocket.
My prison wallet?
MY prison wallet now. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Just like a hammer, political protest is a tool. Using a hammer to smash a nail in a wall: good. Using a hammer to smash someones brain in: bad.
Because intentions are totally irrelevant.
Yes, when turnabout is invoked you don't get to say "but I was right!" as if they'll just stop and recognize that
