Memes have created a world with lots of comic relief that
people can access any time of the day to laugh about other people’s misfortunes
but this is at the cost of someone’s else mistakes and lifestyle Bad Lucky
Brain had ONE bad school picture which created an internet celebrity whether he
wanted the fame or not. Yes he did make light of the situation by posting
another picture but when the picture first surfed the internet and people were
making insulting comments about his appearance at one point in his life it probably
did not feel amazing.
Memes have become very judgmental in way that they make
fun of serious stigmas across the world. Sometimes poking fingers in controversial
topics lead to rage fighting on social networking sites.
Meme have positive affect like making people laugh and smile
if they are feeling under the weather and/or a negative one if the text
includes racism and sexist comment which many of them do. Original memes are first hand ideas but when
so people have access to them the creation of duplicates are found, reposting a
meme could be called plagiarism because millions are taking credit for an individual’s
ideas.
Depression is a serious mental health issue in today’s
society as more people are becoming stress and sad. So why is there a cat that
is a celebrity making fun of the fact that he does not want to be happy and is
angry at the world. Almost in a suicidal state of mind if the cat was a human
being but people still laugh and call him funny? Something does not add up! In
reality the famous grumpy cat had to have surgery to fix a health trouble so in
truth he is physical incapable to move his mouth in any other shape.
They are 100% social commentary that allows people to make
public statement without the repercussions and seriousness of taking a stand on
an issue. They can still express their
feeling about issue but have a funny aspect to the seriousness issues.
Good post! People need to consider whether a Meme will affect or harm others before posting it. When the message that it conveys is cruel or inappropriate, then it should not be published.
ReplyDeleteMemes should only be used to entertain and portray messages that are not harmful to people.
