The world could really do with another Brass Eye right about now.
At the point where a mid-30s white woman is unironically doing a kangaroo impression during her Olympic breakdancing debut, we all have to assume she's beyond feelings of embarrassment. And frankly, good for her.
Thank you! It feels weird but I'm loving it!
I often think about whether memes will be rendered as "probably for ritual use?" like every piece of mysterious art from ancient history. Which then makes me wonder if a bunch of ancient art was just memes.
Look, haven't we *all* had a phase where we self-radicalised into authoritarians because some lefties online were mean to us for our terrible opinions?
Disinformation wins when media and pundits allow far right figures to claim they stand for the working class. Ever. By even engaging with them on that premise (even if it’s to critique their methods) you’re engaging in their first lie.

My kid and I broke into a jig while listening to 500 Miles by The Proclaimers and I was like, "We should do Scottish dancing together!" And he goes: "I was just thinking it'd be fun to learn! But then I realised I'd be 15 and going Scottish dancing with my mum. So, no thanks."
