Lemmy seems to be in a weird middle that a lot of community platforms fall into. There are a lot of memes (way too many honestly) but they are political memes. I would imagine this is because a lot of people are genuinely worried about their future, but do not want to risk their life nor come off as “cringe”.

This is not surprising, given that we are living in extraordinary times, but it is frustrating. I would like for intelligent and practical people to come together and talk about solutions - but we’ve generally been reactionary. You want good and spicy meem - but we’ve generally be reactionary. Like I said, its frustrating.
