Can we make c/politicalmemes and keep this sort of content there? It's clearly a point of division in the community, we should be more accommodating for apolitical folks.

There's no such thing as 'apolitical'. The very idea of leaving politics to our superior politicians is what brought us and keeps us in this state.

This is not at all a political issue however. This is about not being a trash human being. Being racist is not a political opinion, it's spreading hatred in the world and being a waste of skin.

I'm not arguing for or against of what the post says, I'm only saying that the designated place for funny cat pictures is probably not the right place for a meaningful discussion, sharing opinions, education or anything else but funny cat pictures.

When i browse c/memes I want to see easily digestible posts that will make me exhale through my nose, not deep, thought provoking walls of text.

If you think this post is deep and thought provoking then I don't know what to tell you. It just makes fun of american conservatives and that's it. This post is literally just "conservatives dumb", as easily digestible as I've ever seen.

Ah yes, the political issue of education and racism.

It brings me no joy to say this, but everything is political.
