@teddthenedd: Memetic warfare is a form of information warfare that uses memes-viral images, slogans, hashtags, short videos, and simplified narratives-to influence public opinion, shape beliefs, and destabilize or energize groups. The concept builds on the idea of the "meme" introduced by Richard Dawkins in The Selfish Gene, where ideas spread like genes; in this context, those ideas are deliberately crafted and amplified to trigger strong emotions, encourage sharing, and dominate online conversations. By leveraging platforms like Facebook, X, TikTok, and Reddit, actors can rapidly spread messages that polarize audiences, undermine trust, or promote particular narratives, often using humor or irony to maintain plausible deniability.
