Man is there any popular meme communities on lemmy that ban Political posts? Getting sick of this community.

I doubt there's any. There's not a good definition of a "political meme" that wouldn't have many people disagreeing whether certain memes are political or not, hence breeding power trip mods and bias. Most likely, it'll just be allowing the political memes that agree with mods opinions, or are status quo to the mods, and hence not seemingly "political" even if it is.

But if you find one, please comment it here. I'd love to see it.

The question of whether politics should be allowed in meme communities is itsself political

This meme is dank and if you don't like politics that's totally fine but you don't get to dictate to others what this community is about.

Not exactly an answer but you can block communities you don't want to see.
