"This should have thousands. Maybe because it is so worrisome or the mailboxes aren't painted black or brown?"
NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT.
When Imgflip created all the "streams" it SPLIT viewership. Many memes only show up in "New" or "Popular" for A FEW HOURS.
Also, there are some members who UPVOTE *EVERY* MEME for several pages in the New group.
Their idea is that upvoting maybe 45 memes takes just a few minutes--and THEY get points too. SOME of the UPVOTE RECIPIENTS will go to the UPVOTER'S page and UPVOTE maybe 30 of the UPVOTER'S memes as a "thank you".
People who vote by mail tend to be lower income or single parents with young kids or old folks without transportation, or people who only get paid for hours worked, etc. They tend to vote Democrat.
Consider this ...
In 1995 a few months after I moved to Dallas my car DIED and I could not afford a new one. On Sunday I decided to take buses to get to the nearest Catholic church, which was 2.2 MILES AWAY.
It took TWO BUSES to get there and 2 back. One north-south and one east-west. ON SUNDAYS those buses only run ONCE AN HOUR. It was a THREE HOUR round trip! So I didn't go there anymore.
Imagine if that was the closest in-person voting place. I probably would not vote if I could not do it by mail ...
DeJoy did not order the machines merely DECOMMISSIONED, he ordered them DISMANTLED AND SCRAPPED. When a federal judge ORDERED him to reinstall them his response was, "NOT POSSIBLE. We DON'T HAVE THEM ANYMORE."
I live in a heavily business district about 10 miles from DOWNTOWN DALLAS. The nearest Post Office USED TO have FOUR outside mailboxes. Since DeJoy's destruction it STILL has NONE. If you want to DROP OFF A LETTER THERE you have to GO INSIDE ... DURING BUSINESS HOURS.
He ordered OUTSIDE mailboxes AT POST OFFICES removed. The post office nearest me had FOUR mailboxes. Since DeJoy's stunt it has had ZERO.
He ordered A HUGE NUMBER OF **HIGH-SPEED SORTING MACHINES** DISMANTLED AND SCRAPPED.
He did that DELIBERATELY to SLOW DOWN MAIL DELIVERY AROUND THE 2020 ELECTION TIME so that A LOT MORE MAIL BALLOTS would ARRIVE AFTER THE DEADLINES TO BE COUNTED.
