Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy's Department Of Government Efficiency (DOGE) intends to cut government spending dramatically, but skepticism surrounds its longevity and effectiveness.
The launch of DOGE draws from the Doge meme's origins with Kabosu the Shiba Inu, showcasing how nostalgia and humor are pivotal in branding public initiatives.
Musk’s involvement in DOGE raises ethical concerns, especially considering his financial ties to Dogecoin, highlighting a moral gray area amid the push for bureaucratic efficiency.
With its quirky name and meme-based branding, DOGE symbolizes the crossover of meme culture into serious governance discussions, begging the question of legitimacy in governance.
