Memes are allowed for the time being, but that could be subject to change if community needs change.
Please foster a culture of respect and growth, and try to take posters in good faith until proven otherwise. Perfect is the enemy of good, the goal should always be to try to be better than we were yesterday.

Nazi bullshit will not be tolerated.
