Most teens find what is happening around the world through a meme. Where PBSO says it’s bad because it has a lack of information, which is true. But when you go to the comments or the caption, The Admin or people usually explain, so it is not like teens are misinformed. It’s just the easiest way to be conscious without overthinking the information that much. Because at the end, it’s their way to express “hey this is bad” without letting too many feelings out. And if I’m honest a lot of my friend know about the differents things that happen thru social media (tiktok, twitter, instagram), and that’s okay, because the betty of social media its that you don’t see just one opinion about that topic, you see the same topic but with the opinion of other.“[Memes] are a valuable tool not only for young people but also for national security practitioners.” Where the last sentences confirm what I’m saying. Despite all the critics we all know that without memes teens would not have created interest for news. Because newspapers always write their things just to inform, they don’t put that much enthusiasm into their writings, so sometimes it’s kinda hard to read newspapers. However, memes are short, go direct to the point and there is always a brief explanation. Thought that Jamie Withorne shared with me.
