gollark: <@!336962240848855040> There's a great series of SCP Foundation stories about "antimemes", which are sort of what you're talking about: http://www.scp-wiki.net/antimemetics-division-hub
gollark: Ah yes, "security", because Apple's designs are perfect and those who change them will merely destroy that perfection.
gollark: I... don't really think it's bad at all, really.
gollark: 5G causes coronavirus because someone told me that on Facebook. Anything on Facebook is automatically true. QED.
gollark: When a conversation happens and you see it later, it seems to just start in some random place in the middle of it, instead of where it started or just the end of the logs.
