MAGAThread XVI: Raising the Barr

[Gormwood]

Memetic Warfare won the Great Meme War of 2016 and resulted in Trump taking the White House.

In the end though, what really won the war was racism and spooked white people.

It's practically a Racist Pride Movement.

Spooky Scary Mexicans
And tacos in your bum
Drugs and guns and thugs and bums
Gonna terk yer jerbs

We're so sorry Mexicans
You're so misunderstood
You only wanna live your lives
But Trump doesn't think you shoouuuuuld

As long as they don't work at his resorts on the cheap anyways.

Oh that delusion again. Next you'll say memes trigger physiological evolution.

Memes trigger psychological indoctrination.

"Theres is a basic language in all humans, a sort of assembly or machine language, that if they hear it, will override their consciousness and might push them to do things."

Some memes can address this language, and weaponized memes are specifically designed to do so.

Welcome to the Information Age.

Amusingly, certain people are susceptible to even the laziest memes like they were fractal basilisks. Take a look at the recent Pepe and Freikorp flags. Someone will make a Pepekorp image and they'll all latch obediently.

Different people are receptible to different kinds of memetic.

Oh and by the way I did the Trumpkorp one

It's free to use.

In forest-related Trump news, while Trump's now offering the services of presumably tens of thousands of MAGArakes to put out Russian wildfires, this is now a thing:

The Trump administration on Wednesday proposed scrapping restrictions on arsenic-laden waste from coal-fired power plants.

But its clean coal™. Why would it need restrictions on waste products it can't possibly be producing because clean coal™ has no drawbacks?

[Valrifell]

Memes are like narcotics. Mind numbing and addicts eventually develop tolerance.

Memetic Warfare won the Great Meme War of 2016 and resulted in Trump taking the White House.

Of all the 2016 hot takes (and there is no shortage) the "memes won the day" is my least favorite.

Of course something stupid like that would come out of the Trump administration.

Also sause on that?

Ah, ok.

Yeah this proposal sounds horrible.

Evidently the whole "Not gonna contaminate anything" report is toothless.

[The Greater Ohio Valley]

Are you aware that au contraire to the rest of your laundry list the US is actually at war with the DPRK?

That is false.

A formal peace treaty was never signed at the end of the Korean War, so technically true.

Of all the 2016 hot takes (and there is no shortage) the "memes won the day" is my least favorite.

Stuff like "Build the Wall" or "Lock her up" are also memes. I could think of countless more Trumpian memes.

What Hillary Clinton memes there were? "I am with her"? anyone other memorable ones?

Oh the "Basket of Deplorables" which turned against her.

Obamas "Yes, we can!" was much more powerful.

You see, its not limited to 4chan stuff or so.

[Austria-Bohemia-Hungary]

Wait... very slowly now... waaaaaaaat?????

It's okay to put arsenic in the air now. Donnie said so!

You're using the academic form of the word "meme" whereas that's not at all what most people mean when they talk about memes. Political slogans and chants aren't usually included in the normal usage of the term.

[Proctopeo]

That is false.

A formal peace treaty was never signed at the end of the Korean War, so technically true.

There has been an armistice agreement since 1953, which is the informal/non-pedantic end of the war.

Also Korea wasn't a war, it was a police action.

Also Korea wasn't a war, it was a police action.

Initially it was, yes.
Vietnam was all the way through, though, did you get the two conflicts in the Far East between a communist north and a non-communist south confused?

America's wars all sort of blur together.
