Well by that logic, merely saying "I have a job" is a political statement.
Also I'm not reading all that, thank you.
I don't think "I don't like my job" is politically divisive. You don't really get people up in arms about it unless you're complaining about capitalism or work in general. Even boomers have their "I'd rather be fishing" meme about it.
You're kinda misconstruing what I'm saying a lot.
Everyone has their own threshold for what's political. Some people say everything is political. Some people say it's only political if it relates to conflict between politicians.
I'm saying in 95% of cases, 95% of people can agree on what is and isn't political.
When people complain about political memes, they're usually complaining about blatantly political posts, like ones making fun of the republican party, not memes that happen to feature Black people.
What I meant was that anyone can ask themselves if it's political, and 95% of the time they'll get it right by the standards of 95% of the people who don't like politics.
Earlier in this thread, I said:
We complainers aren’t saying they can’t post about politics, just requesting they post their political memes in the designated political meme space.
I also clarified that it has to be contentious, in a way where people condemn each other for thinking differently.
Here are some non-political memes posted in this community in the past hour:

That's 5 of the 6 memes posted in that timespan.
It technically means Mali.
That’s an awful lot of words to implicitly say “it’s not political if I agree with it”
Where are you getting that?
We're on !memes@lemmy.ml. Option 2 is the complainers moving to !memes@sopuli.xyz. Same name, different instances, different rules.
Wow, that's based.
Not really. Option 1 is the political memes moving, option 2 is the complainers moving.
There comes a point where I can't juggle conversations with 20 different people on the same topic and I have to step back instead of trying.
