Memes have a cultural value. Viral media can spread through the nets like vd spreads through a prostitute. You're walking along enjoying your picture nad then WHAM burning piss (aka some programmer got fired for sexism).
What it means is that memes not only have a political value but they have a monitary value.
It used to be that 4chan was the hive mind but now the whole internet is the hive mind and hte hive all collectively shared memes to push the political and fiscal agenda forwards. Fidget spinners are a meme and then suddenly million sand millions of fidget spinners are sold. There are fidget spinners at the store I work at because of it. There are fidget spinners at the dollar store. Thrift stores are being loaded with fidget spinner donations that they don't know what to do with. Fidget spinners are ending up in landfills.
Memes have power. They are like a cryptocurrency that nobody has yet learned how to monetize or crack.
If you can post a strong enough meme you can change history. Imagine if the person who made the frogposting meme had drawn a chicken instead.
You can't control memes though.

Isn't how facebook works basically the application of a monetary value to the spread of shared information, in which memes are included?
