The ban on them to me reads like a "no fun allowed" rule, when a more sensible rule simply saying "Please do not derail threads with memes. If you want to post a meme, make sure it is relevant" seems like the better option.
However, please, NEVER compare anything that happens on this site to actual politics. It's never equivalent. It's never thought-provoking. It's never clever.
1000% this. I agree with every single word of Dogberry's post. Please allow me to add this:
If you don't like how something is being done? Start a petition. I think memes should be allowed in threads, unless you're trying to derail them, just like what was mentioned above. I'm a meme person, and a wordy person. Anyway, I've seen several threads in off-topic so far that are drama bait (some about the mods, some aren't), when instead you can contact the mods and discuss what's going on with them, if it's a situation they can handle, you know?Â
Also, I was about ready to leave RPC for a while, because of the negativity I saw, but then I realized - this will pass, and be the change you want to see in the community. With the right attitude and actions, there's a lot that can be done.
