    I posted a meme of Trump giving the viewer the double fingers with “Cry Harder” as a caption.
    It was intended to be sarcastic, as in NOT Pro-Trump, and a cursory view of that account’s posting history would support that view. The crowd went berserk and that account was banned from the Political Memes, News, and asklemmy…

      dang… I hate when this happens, you post something, and you think its abvious satire. And then nobody gets it and you get insulted by your own peers.

        Not to mentioned being banned from a Political Meme for posting a <checks notes> political meme.

        Plus, lemmy dogpiles from the get go: if your post/comment gets to ‘-1’ off the bat, there’s zero chance of recovery.

        Nope, just the meme. Can’t even recall what the post was about, long pre-election and normal lemmy anti-maga content.
        Mine was the first comment and immediately went to -1, got dogpiled to about -50, then removed by moderator, and I was banned.
