Internet “memes” are one picture depictions of an issue or topic that is often comical, ironic, or even condescending and demeaning. Often used as a form of creative rebellion or opposition to an opponent, or position, it was stated recently in the article, How Donald Trump Won the 2016 Meme Wars, “Creators of these memes act as self-appointed cultural gatekeepers.” Some credit Trump supporters’ mastery of the social media meme as perhaps an important key in his winning in 2016. What is Creator’s perspective on the power and influence of memes?

Social forum platforms like Facebook, seem to have such incredible promise as an electronic “public square” where everybody can participate, where people can debate issues, present supporting data and evidence easily, and enable everybody to become more informed at a deep level about all the myriad things impacting their lives. But the reality is, it seems very few actually want to engage at a deeply thoughtful level, and instead use the platform simply for reinforcing their already entrenched beliefs, and attacking and ridiculing anyone who tries to challenge them. Can Creator share why this ideal of an electronic public square, has so fallen short?

In a recent online discussion, the poster of an article on a very contentious topic enjoyed an avalanche of likes and supportive comments from friends and family members of similar persuasion. But one family member tried to help soften the collective view of the opposition as everything from crazy and stupid, to downright evil. After challenging this consensus on point after point, and using evidence and scientific findings not in alignment with the embraced narrative, the creator of the thread said this, “Please don’t argue on my Facebook page. I don’t go on your page and denigrate your posts.” Can Creator comment on why so many people see a highly contentious topic thread they create as somehow equivalent to a holiday party in their backyard, with the unspoken rule that you “never criticize the host?”

Social media “trolls” and bullies are truly an epidemic. Often these are people who would never be so bold and derogatory in person. It seems every echo chamber has its self appointed “bouncer” who sees it as their job to drive away anyone who brings a dissenting opinion. Rather than engaging in a thoughtful discussion of any kind, they “go for the jugular” and call the opponent every name in the book. No amount of character assassination is too much, and even family members sit back and sometimes even cheer on the “bouncer” as they ravage a family member—something they would probably not be a party to in person. This from people who fancy themselves as highly opposed to any kind of overt bullying. Can Creator comment on this apparent hypocrisy?

“Cancel culture” has really become a serious problem, with the potential for severe, even grave repercussions for people who fall victim. Social media has seemingly enabled and fueled this trend, making it easier than ever before for a snitch to adversely alter the lives of the ideological opposition. Can Creator comment on the danger that cancel culture presents?

When we think of “Martians,” we think of “Little Green Men.” The History.com website says the term originated from an event that took place in the tiny hamlet of Kelly, Kentucky: Why are aliens so often depicted as “Little Green Men” with bulbous heads and oversized eyes? The story began, in part, on the night of August 21, 1955, when a large extended farm family called the Suttons arrived breathlessly at the Hopkinsville Police Station in Southwestern Kentucky. Their story of a terrifying siege by otherworldly beings would become one of the most detailed and baffling accounts of an alien close encounter on record—notable for the large number of witnesses (nearly a dozen), the duration of the encounter (several hours) and the close proximity between the witnesses and creatures (sometimes just a few feet away). The incident quickly became regional and even national news. Are these just our familiar alien Greys created by the Arcturians? Why did they break protocol with this incident and leave a dozen witnesses with a detailed memory of the terrifying close encounter that lasted hours?

It has also been said elsewhere, that oxygen-based and CO2-based life are actually relatively rare in the galaxy, and that methane-based life is in fact more common. Is this true? And if it’s not true, why perpetuate such a lie?
