Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

It's almost like those complaining about "politics" only have an issue when it isn't their politics being discussed...

Everything is political.

A space that shares memes that are created based on current events is always going to bring up political issues, the two are literally inseparable - the whole fucking point of memes is to be snippets of shared cultural and social experiences that get shared around and evolve accordingly.

What the fuck do you expect?

And you know what? I wouldn't be able to pinpoint which memes OP is talking about because as oppose to them, when I see content I don't like I simply block the poster or the community or both and move on with my life (like I will be doing now). I advise they do the same instead of making yet another whiny post about the content in a community they probably never contributed anything to before this point.
