We're at a period in history where memes are used in war. What a time to be alive.

Memes have been used in WW2 too. Memes weren’t invented in the 21st century lol.

Dr. Seuss got in on it all through the war. By today's standards he was the OG Memelord.

Look up "Dr. Seuss Goes to War". It's a neat book.
