Why doesn't literature ever try to advance now that we have reached the point where we communicate by meme?

We have powerful meaning operators that go unused. Nobody still codes in assembly these days, it takes too long so they use Python (a higher level language), with its inbuilt libraries (stores of meaning). I'm not saying assembly isn't useful in some situations, it is. Just not all.

As one example: We live in a time where the entire epoch of existentialist literature can be brought up and expressed solely with the word "DUDE".

memes are the decay of language, not the growth.
memes destroy literature, not create it.

Wrong, memes are a potent store of value that are more powerful than words could ever be when used correctly

You're a pleb with trash opinions. When was the last time you saw the sun? Go to /soc/ and join a cock rate thread DUDE

I don't see why you'd think memes weren't always around. It's not as formal a technical tool as Leitmotivs.
Or do you speak of image macros?

they're thoughtless tribal grunts designed to be inclusive and signal primitive emotions. they actively destroy capacity for abstract thought.

I agree 100% memes are the future. Anyone who disses memes is like those guys who dissed Joyce for not conforming to the standards of 19th century realism. Real memetic hyperliterature is what we all should be aiming for

The memetic future; enhanced post-literate society. Return of repressed pre-literate forms, sound, image, tactility, improvisation and impermanence.Obvious parallels with aboriginal dreamtime, constant collective mythopoesis, endless play and endless possibilities. 2bh I can't wait.

The situationists wanted to abolish the Art/Life distinction, well there you go, it's within our reach

You're very clever young man, but it's memes all the way back.

memes are the essence of humanity and all thought
