Thanks for asking.
Some political images do get through submission process and approval queue to featured status in the fun stream because of the stream settings Imgflip has selected. It's the same as some non political memes getting through to featured status in the politics stream.
Start a stream and you can see the options for Stream Moderation settings yourself:
imgflip.com/create-stream
Want better fun stream moderation than that? You can create and contribute more ideas in this stream or please send your other insights to
