Hold me now.
By the way, I've recently reread Baudolino and couldn't help but notice how Umberto Eco anticipated meme magic.

Meme magic is what people call when memes change reality, either by influencing real world events or when it supposedly manifests itself in the real world.
In Umberto Eco books it's common for the characters to invent huge conspiracies and fantasies that ended up becoming true (or at least the characters begin to genuinely believe it). In Baudolino, for example, the characters invent the realm of Prester John to influence European politics, but the legends get out of control and spread on their own, as a meme. They also end up believing it and travel to the realm of Prester John and find many things they themselves conjured in their fantasies about these places.
Literally meme magic.

Sorry man, but this is just my personal interpretation. It's not as if any serious sociologist speak of "meme magic".
