Geopolitics

One meta-note on the situation, is that in my timeline I have seen exactly zero non-western people defending Durov's arrest, but quite a few western people.

Definitely don't want to say that they don't exist (after all, my timeline is biased just like anyone's), just this is what my sample is so far.

IMO this is another example of the decoupling of liberalism and westernism that https://x.com/MacaesBruno often talks about.

let’s talk, we have to build a coherent meta meta that people can rally around 

meme space is entirely poisoned now

yes - and - I want to help shift the narrative/attention from people shilling meme coins to ppl propagating meaningful memes.
