This is an endemic problem in all discourse, whether on #SocialMedia or otherwise. The paraphrase becomes the dominant meme (in the original #RichardDawkins sense) and hearsay becomes conventional “wisdom.”
I try to countervail in subjects that matter to me (the #Perl #programming language and #AynRand’s philosophy of #Objectivism) and echo @nova’s advice: seek primary and authoritative sources and question dismissive paraphrasing. https://hachyderm.io/@nova/110269313981320765

Pronunciation Public Service Announcement:
"Meme" is pronounced "MEEEEM" not "Me-Me."
ChatGPT-4 Plus Explains it better than I ever could.
(See attached image!)
TLDR:
///
The word "meme" is pronounced as /miːm/, rhyming with "team" or "cream." This pronunciation was intended by Dawkins to rhyme with "gene," emphasizing the parallel between the two concepts (Dawkins, R. 1976).

I like how Richard Dawkins explains his ideas. I find them quite convincing.

Enorme satisfação em reler o final do capítulo 2 de #OGeneEgoísta #RichardDawkins
Já havia lido capítulos esparsos em 2018 (incluindo o dos #Memes), mas agora farei a leitura integral.
Mas este trecho (ver #print), com a metáfora dos #robôs / #MáquinasDeSobrevivência é sensacional.
Especulei como seria um filme ou animação sobre este capítulo, mais ou menos nos moldes do #WarriorsOfTheNet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsQHgE3dylE (que "personificava" os pacotes de rede/internet).

Richard Dawkins is a British evolutionary biologist, ethologist and author, born in Kenya. Due to his passionate defense of the theory of evolution and his attacks on religion and superstition in general, he has become known as Darwin's Rottweiler and also as one of the "Four Horsemen" in the New Atheist movement (along with Hitchens, Dennett, and Harris).
The general public came to know Dawkins' name after he published his first book, The Selfish Gene, in 1976. This book made a gene-centric view of evolution popular and that view later became an influential approach to evolutionary theory. The Selfish Gene also introduced the idea of memes, and the concept went on to become a meme itself. …
Note: this article also covers multiple criticisms of Dawkins.

Does #RichardDawkins' "outrage" over #MātaurangaMāori have as much to do with #NZ media not fawning over him as it does his #racist 3rd hand understanding of the (non)issue? #DickDawk

Fascism 2023: Discussion: Individual cognitive disfunction and emotional coping mechanisms explain a lot of what goes on at Trump rallies and Alternatives for Germany and Golden Dawn events.
In reply to @Maura_resister
@project1enigma suggests that a disease model of global fascism trend denies "agency" of perps. W/O going into debate on freewill and determinism good point but OTOH #pandemic modeling can yield insights. Remember that #Darwin (not RichardDawkins) recognized that #memes or #ideas transmit subject to #naturalselection forces. Preventive medicine intervention models may be appropriate in planning prevention of epidemic spread; indeed epidemiological framework is an appealing approach to what is essential mass psychopathology.
