1) 𝑴𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒔 must make an effort at humor Webster’s Dictionary defines “meme”
an image or video that’s been creatively edited for laffs. Unedited screencaps
of text tweets, Onion articles, or political cartoons are not memes. Exceptions
made for occasional [CONTEXT] posts: unedited newsworthy media that can act as
fodder for new memes. 2) Memes must 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒂𝒏 𝒆𝒇𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒕 at humor Memes
should be decent-looking, clever, and show some creativity (including the
title). No sloppy editing. No watermarks. No 𝗜𝗠𝗣𝗔𝗖𝗧 font. No reposts. 3)
Memes must make an effort at 𝒉𝒖𝒎𝒐𝒓 Memes should be funny first and
foremost. Not angry, preachy, or insulting. No unironic #hashtags. If your meme
is mainly promoting or advocating or WAKING PEOPLE UP, ur doing it rong. NSFW
content is fine, but no uncensored porn/violence. 4) No personal attacks It’s
politics – folks are gonna argue! Just do it respectfully. Hostility and vulgar
insults are subject to removal with a warning, while repeat offenders may be
banned. Memes should not target individual users. No
racism/misogyny/*phobia/other bigotry. For harassing PMs, block the user or
report serious threats. 5) No brigading or disinformation Do not link to
specific posts or users directing others to vote. Do not link to stuff here from
elsewhere doing so, either. If you suspect brigading, report evidence to the
mods. Unsubstantiated claims cannot be acted on. Activity on other communities
is not brigading. Disagreeing with you is not brigading. Accusations in the
comments are subject to removal. Blatantly misleading posts will be tagged and
debunking info stickied if provided. 6) Submissions must relate to a
presidential election This can be any election from throughout U.S. history. It
cannot be a gubernatorial, senatorial, or other election unless that election
involved a future president and is presented in context of their presidency or
their election. The 2024 election is ramping up, but we encourage users to
branch out.
