>I recognise the fervour in my teenage son, who listens to lots of music, even if I wouldnât call him a music fan: heâs following the new, in technology, in culture, in form and genre, looking at memes on 4chan and Reddit and posting his own. This scares me sometimes, when I read about the way racists use humour and irony to pull in the unwitting, so I asked my son what he thought, and we had a shouting match about how he thinks I think heâs stupid. Is the world any the worse for my son, and millions like him, âshitpostingâ what Iâm told are called âdank memesâ?
We did it reddit, we London Review of Books now.
