Excellent piece! I'm thankful you brought it to my attention, and it seems particularly a pro pro in light of Tucker Carlson's interview regarding Nick Land.
The malefic nature of memes has become more apparent to me since being more active on Twitter. I had to stop posting memes altogether on my account because I observed that they tend to attract low-quality audience; people who lack thoughtfulness, are often adversarial, highly sentimental, and ruled by the hive mind (aka bunch of lil edgelords with antisocial trait).
In many Traditional faiths, it is ignorance par excellence, being the privation of knowledge, that is not only the cause of vice, the privation of virtue - being a vice in and of itself - but it is also the cause of transgression in general, due to not perceiving the proper orientation of oneself. It seems only natural that certain memetic impulses have such a tenebrous character, insofar as they channel these demonic conceptions and achieve these attitudes that predispose one towards transgression through ignorance. Therefore, memes seem to favor lesser state of intellectuality, or a lack thereof, by association.

Hello friend! Thought I’d drop a comment, you may enjoy my work!
I’ve been on here a week now and I’m trying to connect with others. I have a profound love of writing and reading,
I share a philosophical look at history written in antique books, what some call “alternative”
