I was scrolling through top/day, and all the memes are criticizing America. Oil memes and stuff like that. Why is that (not the memes in themselves, but the near unanimousness of the themes)?

Haven't seen it myself but because Lemmy has a relatively small user base it's fairly easy to just flood it with content and have a significant portion show up on the front page. If you're seeing a sudden influx of a specific type of meme, my guess is that's just someone sending a lot of the same kind of content ar once.
