I think memes are one of the “spaces” of the Internet. There’s context for consuming a huge gradient of text and video lengths.
Memes are the immediate, 3 seconds long attention span. And, as we mention, we are horrible at it. For the reasons you recognise. I agree! But we must fight for that’s attention space, because that’s where most people is.
As usual, the fight is harder for us. Doesn’t mean we give up on fighting.
Of course the funnel is different. We have to strategise around it. Different people, media and content for different sections of the funnel. But we need the top of the funnel too, because that’s where real people are.
What about Stalin’s big spoon? It’s nonsense and confusing, but puts Stalin front and center. What else is there?
They got troll face, Chad, polandball, the frog, and the list goes on. Who’s us, on the memeland? In south America we got care bears and the URSAL.
There must be more! We can do fun too, for fucks sake!

She’s a meme about what kind of stories Yanks believe about North Korea.
