    That would depend on users following the tagging system. If Imgur is any indication, political posters will purposely not do that, because they think it’s their god-given mission to “spread awareness.”

      Not if we had a system in place for users having the ability to submit tags and the mods to implement those tags.

      You’re so right, and they are utterly self-defeating. By attempting to force people to engage, they’re having the opposite effect. People are disengaging instead, and I don’t blame them. We need our spaces for silly humor.
