# On "anti-viral meme ecosystems" ## Content A senior journalist in India, with a penchant for heavily *capslocked* posts just noted this (in a longer [tweet](https://x.com/RShivshankar/status/2057727440349466898)): > "Agencies view viral anti-system meme ecosystems as potential threats to institutional trust and public stability if left unchecked." in the context of reports of intelligence agencies' concerns about the *virality* and support for the "Cockroach Janta Party." Hard to say to what extent this was a faithful re-articulation of an input or to what degree it was editorialised. But, this suggests that we're directionally headed towards (much) more speech suppression. ## Related Notes ## Disclaimers ![[Disclaimer-Microblog]] ![[Disclaimer-Writing]] ## Colophon %% title:: On "anti-viral meme ecosystems" type:: [[&output]] tags:: [[&microblog]] url:: file:: creator:: Prateek Waghre %% created:: [[2026-05-22]]
