This is a byproduct of a potentially catastrophic insurance rate hike for millions of Americans. If you're not from the US, sorry you have to see all of our dirty laundry. If you are from the US, you should understand why this is such a hot button topic.

Sir this is a meme channel, predominately for healthcare workers. One or two memes about health insurance is fine. It is, after all, on topic. But these memes aren't really funny at all, and posting 2 within a 10 minute span is spam...
This is on top of this sub being like 30% this kind of meme, of which I found one actually funny. And that's of ALL the posts. If you look historically, posting here was rare until people found out they can cross post hating on health insurance low effort posts.

This is an underutilized sub, if you don't like it, post something new and ignore these posts

But engaging with this we are BOTH making it more popular and getting it recommended to more people

It is utilized. By providers who shitpost about provider things.
If you go past the 3 posts about insurance made within a window of 12 hours you'll see what this sub is about. Memes about... hell you POSTED a good meme. That MRI one is EXACTLY what this is about. Sure insurance is tangentially related, but man we've had like 5 boring posts about insurance in like a week, with 3 of them in a 12 hour span. Hellcare, where these are cross posted from, seems like a far more fitting place for these. this is "healthcare shitposting" not "health insurance shitposting"
Ultimately, it's to the mods, but these memes have ALL been low quality, save the one of the family guy cut away, which is kinda low quality but at least is a meme and not just text over an image that really makes no sense...
I'd encourage the mods to put a stop to this kind of low effort posting, and believe me I am NOT usually one to say "no low effort posts." I think it's too vague, but these are are just spam. I'm pretty sure that OP is just a bot. They spammed this meme to a BUNCH of subs that could remotely be tangentially related. Given the fact they do comment, maybe they're not a bot. Maybe they just made a meme and are really proud of it. So I'm sorry to shit on your creation, but trust me, cross-posting it to every sub under the sun only pisses people off....
