The meme for blind faith secures its own perpetuation by the simple unconscious expedient of discouraging rational inquiry.
So, the first things we must do is decide which it is: A substantive and hidden thing that produces cultural symptoms or it is the meme “hypothesis” and testable. If it is not falsifiable it cannot meet the criteria of scientific fact, according to the very structure of the scientific methodology itself. This would put it in the latter category of faith-based belief systems
An Internet meme is a hijacking of the original idea. Instead of mutating by random change and spreading by a form of Darwinian selection, Internet memes are altered deliberately by human creativity. There is no attempt at accuracy of copying, as with genes - and as with memes in their original version.
Very often, when leaders repeat things over and over, they are preparing you for when that meme actually emerges in reality.
