cultural phenomenon

Probably this.
Memes are nothing new.

That autism is the manifestation of memes in humans.
Thank God for the Hwan nerve staples or we would all be souless memers, powerless against the Finnish autism rays.

The interesting thing is, how will people remember moot?

As a COWARD

who?

MAKE IT GREAT AGAIN PUPPERS

The same way we view Romans covering their walls in obscene writings and drawings.

>you will never take "meme studies in the early 21st century" as a subject

who?

feeble attempts at satire that were funny on rare occasion.

>implying Veeky Forums isn't in a torrid affair with /pol/, making out with him in the back of his panther tank

pol is gay with a bearded old man fetish?

It's more like /pol/ is stalking Veeky Forums, mailing Veeky Forums letters made from clipped bits of magazines ranting about the Jews, and complaining about how Veeky Forums doesn't love /pol/ back.

Memes have existed for much longer than this generation. The only development is we can now identify them as memes. We are now meta memeing.

>implying /pol/ is any way relevant to this board
/pol/ is literally just /b/ 2.0

Only right answer, and it describes philosophy pretty good too.

It's just re-branding of ideas, obscured by language and possible ignorance.

As a cuckold

Veeky Forums is a more popular /pol/. That is to say, /pol/ with dates.

Veeky Forums got more purely ideological discussion than /pol/ does.
That's pretty sad, /pol/ could have been a much better job if the mods did a better job at purging.

Similar stuff happens every time a new communication medium appears.

Make it great again, pupper

quality post

>What will future historians think of memes?

They'll probably just use examples of memes the same way contemporary historians use previous caricatures (of satirical magazines, etc.) to show what kind of political climate there was.

a better question is what will historians think of this thread, if they will even think of it at all

a natural by-product of the information age.

We archive the best we can.

Hwans weaponized autism fool

You could probably do that right now and get away with it in a sociology program or something.

If they worked half the time and stopped it from being this.../r9k/, /b/, /adv/, /politics/ mixture, then it wouldn't be a containment board anymore.
