| Description | This invited keynote lecture considers the phenomenon of social and political activism performed by means of humour, illustrated with case studies from grassroots movements in the online sphere in the context of current socio-political events. It notes how users develop memes and culture-specific forms of humour and how their memetic creations undergo change and development (memetic drift) in the course of time. |
