TER as Daily Practice

So every meme and by meme I consider any informational unit a meme so Alaska is now a meme but any of the memes, any of the informational units about Alaska, they are themselves informational units which have the power to trigger our emotions which we can then experience consciously and then how we react to them, whether we share the meme whether we allow the meme to depress our mood, and then we allow it to depress our mood, and then we go on and depress someone else’s mood, which is the purpose of these memes.

Every informational unit is a meme. Every meme triggers emotions. The key choice: do we share it and pass the mood-depression onward, becoming unwitting agents of the Disinfolklorist? TER gives us the pause to choose differently.
