      He’s not. But several years ago the media latched onto a well established term from “internet culture” without understanding (or perhaps caring) what it was actually describing, and decided that it meant ridiculing something on social media. It’s an example of a subculture’s slang getting thoroughly corrupted through mainstream exposure until it no longer means what it once did.

        This headline is basically “Have you seen this meme?” and nothing more.

        Its then shared on the same websites as memes get posted.

        Such enlightened age of information we live in.

          While I agree with your point, this isn’t an indictment of journalism. Comicsands.com is George Takei’s personal buzzfeed clone. I love George Takei but it’s not an actual news source, it’s a meme blog. Personally, I don’t think it belongs in any serious news oriented communities.

            That just sounds like a tabloid with extra steps.

            However i am not one to argue with subjective literature for entertainment but in this place mistook it for attempted journalism.

            Would it fit better in /memes? It is not a meme but contains some and adds context.

      Kevorkian, besides being dead, acted out of a sense of morality. Nothing could be further than Trump’s intention.

        So that puts him a few spots below Mengele on the list of candidates.

    If Dr Spaceman was real, you know he’d be in the running. That or he’d be the guy in the WH giving out pills like he’s the candy shop guy from Willy Wonka.
