Some folks said memes were a waste of time. Some people said they don't get the hype around memes. Others responded to my many rants on memes with the plea "please sir. This is a Wendy's". But this feels like vindication that we need to do more memeing and analysis

[Hari/ഹരി/हरि/هري @HariPrasad91]

ITS REAL AND ITS OUT! Our very first peer-reviewed journal article! In @terpolv @HamptonStall, @LogoSec_ , and myself analyze the memes of the far right and militia groups centered around the Kyle Rittenhouse shootings.

'Do not run!' A brief moment of panic swept through the 2nd 'March for Our Lives' protest against gun violence in Washington DC. There was an agitator/active shooter scare...during a moment of silence for Uvalde.

Happy to see this published in the Bulletin #FrancoPaix. Even if these are very complex times for #Mali I have tried to imagine what peace(talks) would look like and how to move forward. Un grand merci à l'équipe de @RDandurand for the opportunity and feedbacks. #Sahel
