In all seriousness, memetic magick is of far greater relevance in the modern age than Belial’s cum shot especiale’…

There is so much regurgitation, not just here but damn near everywhere, that memetic manipulation is a welcome respite to me. IMO memetics will leave an imprint on history far greater than any one person’s ascent via the route of daemonic fuck fantasies.

Or cursing the high school bully.

Or getting the ‘ex’ back.

Or selling their soul.

Or

Or

Or

Which is what I am comparing a fourth (or even fith or sixth) meme thread to.

Tbh I never intended for that thread to become like that. It just kinda took on a life of it’s own.

I agree with this. However, simply posting memes one finds funny from the internet does not in itself imply the use of memetic magick at all. It would be a different case altogether if someone opened a thread with the title “Memetic Magick” and explained what it is, how it’s done, and how to use it rather than just random images.

That new guy who was a member here for all of a minute who called himself a “memetic magician” was just being a troll and posting crap all over the forum, spamming with irrelevant images and preventing or interrupting meaningful discussions. There was no explanation of the magick behind anything, if there even was any, just stupid images (he was really fond of images of men’s penises for some reason) including the one of EA that had already spammed the forum a few months back.

This I disagree with. I don’t see memes as anything but a modern offshoot of traditional image magick, and I doubt its influence will last much beyond the first few decades of the 21st century, before it morphs into something else or moves back into its traditional forms, as such things are wont to do.

I can agree with this to a point. I get annoyed with the constant repetition as well. As I said above, image magick is just as traditional as love/lust magick, and revenge magick, and there are actually very few if any informative threads about it on the forum, but, in my opinion, there is a large difference between discussing memetic magick and how to use it, and just posting irrelevant images one finds “cool” or “funny.”

That happens. It’s nothing against anyone who participated. It was quite interesting reading up to the point where it started to become a parody of itself. By the time I stopped reading it, I felt it had degenerated and gotten pretty silly, that’s all.

Look at the most recent post. In that thread. It’s important

A post was merged into an existing topic: The cool memes thread

I moved (technically, copied) the first post here into the Cool Memes thread and have retitled this, because an interesting discussion and some fun comments happened as a result. :+1:

(Reminder to keep any discussion of meme magick non-partisan, and ideally, apolitical per the new rule of Sept 5th banning political threads.)

Thanks, Eva. This is the kind of post I was talking about. An actual discussion of memes and their use in magick :slight_smile:

@Woodsman81 you seem far more knowledgeable than I when it comes to this kind of magick. Any info you want to lay on us Luddite folks who aren’t quite as hip to the ways of the youngsters?

‘Memetic’ just means ‘how ideas spread’, so even if we’re considered ancient in the next 10 years, there’ll still be memes! They’ll probably be different though.

Cultures ancient to us would consider memes ‘McMoonMagic’ because of how easy they are to charge and trigger! I can’t wait to see where the cycle heads. :slight_smile:

But maymays only work if they spread a truth that breaks someone out of a brainwashing program… I contend. :frog:

A meme that asks you to ignore reality you had been fucntioning well within, and live in a fantasy that hates you, would never catch on? :thinking:

Yeah, definitely true. Which raises something worth pointing out: our memetics material is lacking here.

Lol, those two were pretty funny for a minute. Exactly a minute. But yeah, definitely trolling.

I meant it more in the context of what can be documented on the subject. It is definitely image magick, almost on a chaos magick level in it’s relevance to the human collective conscious. Every nation has used some form of image magick, but in the context of satire in the bardic tradition it is limited to an individual nation’s current events for the most part. Memetics translate into every country’s situations if one is creative enough, and so gains impetus as more and more people use them.

Also, memetics are one of the few occult techniques used by damn near anyone willingly and even somewhat knowingly. Religious, atheist, magickian, comedian, etc all use meme warfare with intent. It is an Everyman technique that can be documented more accurately than previous systems, ever were, too.

You are right on this one for sure. Actually I noticed more and more people are showing interest in building symbolism and sigil work into social media images, stores, etc. Meme fueled chaos magick could be amazing.

Hmmm. Let me flesh out a new thread idea. It’s a ridiculously powerful tool to have at one’s disposal, IMO. It can legally assassinate a person’s character or shift the rule of the land when used to effect.

wait… demonic gangbanging??? WTF lmao

Ah! I feel that your point, while valid, is perhaps strictly a result of the climate in which memes are now used, rather than a law of their functionality.

What’s a more delusional meme than martyrdom?

At first I was struck with magnetic meme magic being the most revenant. I was obviously sleepy.
