    It’s getting downvotes because it’s not a meme. Even if it’s true, it’s just limp propaganda.

        Memes can be propaganda, yes, but they need to be something more, otherwise they won’t reach people.

        You can make an image macro of a cat with the text “cucumber bad”, but it probably won’t be very popular. Even then, there’s a history of memes about cats reacting to cucumbers that gives that idea more traction than “Nazis did a nazi”.

        Someone asked “why the downvotes”. I explained “bad meme”.
