Memetic warfare (en.wikipedia.org)

submitted 3 days ago by CubitOom@infosec.pub to c/wikipedia@lemmy.world

Memetic warfare is a modern form of information warfare and psychological warfare that involves the propagation of internet memes on social media. While different, memetic warfare shares similarities with traditional propaganda and misinformation tactics, becoming a more common tool used by government institutions and other groups to influence public opinion.
