Andres Monroy-Hernandez (MIT Media Lab alumnus) Ben Valentine Elena Agapie Katy Pearce #sxsw #LOLnations #MLSXSW Global memes add snark and commentary to politics. Memes have helped citizens around the world express political support and dissent: from the meme that helped a cat run for office in Mexico, to the goats that parodied Obama’s visit to Uganda, to the Myanmar kitten that people used to protest the cost of cellphone service. And sometimes memes are used BY a government against dissent, as is the case in Azerbaijan. |
