You change people’s minds by pitching an idea exactly in the grey area of their uncertainty, to where they aren’t sure how they feel yet and they’re receptive to a new thought. Broad shifts in perspective are rare and highly individual, memes just aren’t reliably going to be the pliers you use to pull that tooth.

Memes are usually working in layers of irony, so, all of them are either unreliable (and funny) or they’re just infographics in meme form.
