    Counterpoint, if it works that means fascism lost to memes

      It makes sense. Memes are propaganda.

        And while fascism does use humor to lure people in, it also cannot deal with being the but of a joke

          Fascist humor is just the first thing any teenage mind would think of to make their teenage friends giggle. It usually just amounts to calling someone a derogatory name. And, just like a teenager, they get pissed when it’s echoed back at them. They are, literally, mentally retarded.

        I think you have that backwards.

        All propaganda are memes.

        Not all memes are propaganda.

          Yeah, I should’ve said memes can be propaganda.

          But not all propaganda are memes? There’s also movies, music, publications, etc and so on.

            Memes are things that are shared and passed around. The term existed before the internet.

      That’s not a counterpoint, that’s just repeating what they said.

        The original phrasing to me made it sound like the survivors should be embarrassed to have used memes to defeat fascism. When the fascist are the ones that should be embarrassed
