Study finds Jow Forums was by far the most influential disseminator of dangerous memes

>My colleagues and I recently carried out the largest scientific study of memes to date, using a dataset of 160m images from various social networks. We showed how “fringe” web communities associated with the alt-right movement, such as Jow Forums’s “Politically Incorrect” board (Jow Forums) and Reddit’s “The_Donald” are generating a wide variety of racist, hateful, and politically charged memes – and, crucially, spreading them to other parts of the internet.

>We found that Jow Forums was by far the most influential disseminator of memes, in terms of the raw number of images originating there. In particular, it was more influential in spreading racist and political memes.

"some memes might look like a frog but are actually symbols of hate"
and pol is spawning politically incorrect memes as main conclusion is pretty weak for a study using 160.000.000. images. after the data crunching they should have let someone with a working brain analyse it to get some significant results.

Yeah, the study seems flimsy as fuck. But honestly how much effort should really be put into something like this?

>As such, we hope that making our data and methods publicly available will allow more researchers to monitor how weaponised memes might influence elections and broader political debate.

>For example, we worked with Facebook to help the social network’s efforts to mitigate manipulation campaigns during the 2018 US midterm elections, providing them with real-time examples of politically-motivated memes that originated from fringe communities. This allowed them to gain a better understanding of dangerous memes and monitor their spread through the platform in politically relevant contexts.

pretty orwellian

cringe

if they looked into ti they would find out the jews are evil and they do not want to do so so thes have to be flimsy,
it's like licking the redpill, but not swallowing it, instead of that spitting it out because it is too bitter

Board of peace, dindu nuffin. It was those evil Nazi racists on 9gag.

this.

If they start shit we will use the 9gag watermarks again.

Resistant(People that the virus has trouble infecting, but are not immune to being infected)

Hosts(People that have the virus)

Carriers(People that have the virus, but is dormant for long periods of time or even generations without showing any signs of infection. Some types of carriers can spread it)

Transmitters(People that are being used by the virus to spread it, but are not fully/completely infected)

Spreaders(People infected with the virus that spread the virus)

Infected(People infected by the virus)

HiveMind/Colony Castes(Similar to social insects. Queens, Drones, Workers, Soldiers, Majors, Super Majors, Kings, etc)

That means you have a higher quotient of inconvenient truth to the illusion of hypocrisy that veils pedophile perverts from justice as hollywood sex cults persecute the church of the true inheritors of this earth as they put on star acts bringing heavens to light and then sacrificing kids to death for satanic oaths in the basement of their castle cult
