For political content, be aware of the instance you are posting in. Lemmy.world is pretty good, but will often remove any posts about political violence, including guillotines and "Luigi" content. Lemmy.ml will remove content that is critical of communism, including Russia and CCP.

A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Politicalmemes could be a general place, but you're most likely better off posting your artwork in communities oriented specifically towards the political position your artwork is for.
I find that the best way of discover communities is to browse "all" and sort by 6 hour best. Do this a few times over a few days and you'll probably find communities that are suitable.
I'm happy to field your questions at !newtolemmy@lemmy.ca
For not specifically newbie questions but stuff you might feel silly asking on AskLemmy, you can go to !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
For where to share your art: !artshare@lemmy.world
For where to share your political flyers: !politicalmemes@lemmy.world or !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca if they are anything like a meme. !usa@midwest.social is more loose in types of content allowed so your political art (if US related) might be able to be posted there.
The default view for communities is Local, which will only show communities on your instance. Given you're on lemmy.world, that's a considerable number, but if you click 'All' at the top of the communities page, you'll also see communities outside of your instance (but again only ones that your instance knows about, which amounts to any that someone from your instance has subscribed to). Again, you're on LW, so this is a significant percentage.
If this is a niche that doesn't exist currently (or you can't find a place for it), you could create such a community.
This is a good list of communities.
Are you looking to share your own artwork? Then !artshare@lemmy.world seems like a good option. Otherwise I'm not really sure. You could always start your own community to post in.
That's a great list! If you see anyone asking for anything women related please mention !WomensStuff@lazysoci.al we just opened a few days ago
Pixelfed might be more up your alley as it's a more insta like experience...but there are many pictures and political meme communities out this way.
Other commenters have given great info so far. I'll tack on that the community discovery within the Lemmy web UI is terrible. If you want to dig for communities other than gets suggested here, the Communities tab on Lemmy Explorer is much better.
"Sharing artwork" or "offering your stickers for sale?" The former is fine, but the latter is likely to get you banned for spamming.
Thanks. This is really helpful.
