Leftist Infighting: A community dedicated to allowing leftists to vent their frustrations
1283 readers

The purpose of this community is sort of a "work out your frustrations by letting it all out" where different leftist tendencies can vent their frustrations with one another and more assertively and directly challenge one another. Hostility is allowed, but any racist, fascist, or reactionary crap wont be tolerated, nor will explicit threats.

Our political memes should be both funny and a good reflection of our politics; it's right there in the concept itself. Of course you don't hold them to the same standards you would theory, but if the political point is sloppy enough it's just not a very good meme.
That's also setting aside occasions where people are having a substantive discussion and someone cops out with "come on this is just a meme board." That flies some for memes themselves and joke threads, but there are plenty of run-of-the-mill news discussions where that pops up, too.
