Memes do change peoples’ mind. I have watched it happen, numerous times. Can they change anyone’s? No, but I have literally watched meme shitposting, and socializing via image forums, and video games, just talking shit, and exchanging memes, change people’s political alignments, and other aspects of their personalities. Misinformation, spread online, with bots involved, is why FEMA workers are scared for their lives ATM.
I never said this was the biggest problem facing Democrats, nor did I say shaming works to change their minds. You made this up. I commented to someone doubting that people are actually like this, figuring it was just bots, with my anecdote, about people I personally know, who were, or still are, like that. There is no more to it. Your imagined narrative where I said this was the biggest concern for Democrats, or that shaming will change those people’s minds, never happened.
I wasn’t taking about “memes” I was talking about this meme (and others like it). You are doing to me exactly what you claim I did to you.
I didn’t claim you said that your position was that this was Democrats biggest problem, or anything else you claim I said (or implied) that you said. That was a simple supposition to highlight that this is not a strategically intelligent way to address the problem, even if we presume it to be a massive problem.
