Memes are more than mere entertainment; they are a key form of communication that encapsulates cultural narratives. According to research from the Institute for Digital Safety and Behaviour, memes are crucial in sharing and propagating extremist ideologies and conspiracy theories, thereby reinforcing group cohesion among like-minded individuals. They help participants perceive themselves as enlightened while viewing the broader population as misinformed. Researchers emphasize that memes distill complex ideas into digestible formats, making them potent tools for disseminating and solidifying conspiratorial viewpoints.
These communities attribute social events to hidden plots and the manipulative power of a shadowy elite.
Memes are essential for sharing and spreading extremist visions, strengthening ties and transmitting deceptions within these groups.
