Researchers believe internet memes are being used as modern-day leaflet propaganda

Contexte
It was created in June of 2021. It uses a beloved and popular character Ned Stark from the series Game of Thrones who most people are familiar with. The famous phrase from the show is "Winter is Coming" which means to be prepared for impending danger. Because of technology and the way we communicate today, there is a whole new way to reach people. This is a reminder of how easy it is to get a message across, especially ones that plays into current biases. People need to be vigilant.

    I enjoy this meme as it makes us understand that viewing, understanding, and discussing propaganda is not an easy task. Sometimes it can get scary and uncomfortable, but your armor (values) will keep you going in the right direction.
