From my viewpoint memes are a cancer.

They're a place where neurotypical stupidity meets autistic stupidity. People pretend to communicate but actually they don't. They come from the same place as "bag-of-word" models and neural networks that don't understand anything but fake neurotypical privilege, taking advantage of your brain's thirst for closure, see

Shitposts are another thing entirely. When I can get a -6 score on an HN comment that I know is right I take perverse pleasure in that.




Sounds like someone can’t meme.
