Great #quote I heard this morning.
Context the #memes mentioned below are more of the viral mistruths and angry mob thoughts.
"Memes are ideas and they compete for space in your brain.
Their competition is not based on true they are. Their competition is not based on how good for you they are.
It's based on how effectively they spread, how easily they are to stay in the brain, and how effective they are in repeating that process."
