Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

MODERATORS
They've beaten you into submission.
I'm not beaten, I'm suggesting alternate strategy
You specifically, explicitly, didn't do that
What alternate strategy?
To be clear, I think I mostly agree with you, that certain people are entrenched and merely pointing out hypocrisy does nothing to change their ways of thinking. What other options are there?
Idk really, community organizing, forming mutual aid groups, etc. Getting out and talking to your neighbors. Just tired of seeing the same old double standards posted like it'll matter, and nothing actually getting done besides furious typing
No, you didn't. You said to stop pointing out their hypocrisy, to let them get away with it. That's all you suggested.
