URL: http://cogdogblog.com/2016/11/el-orange-chupacabra/

Description: From CogDogBlog. Nov 8, 2016. "Like many Americans, when El Orange Chupacabra rose to run in the Republican primaries, I felt assured the Grand Old Party (hello Lincoln? Heck even Reagan) would discard of this creature. Surely they would summon a candidate of the caliber to run this country (...) But oddly, it’s power grew, it consumed more and more attention, casting spells of demise, disaster. And people bought it up. I waited for America to wake up. A monster was on the loose."

Description: By Douglas Haddow, for The Guardian. This article talks about Internet memes as "anarchic folk propaganda" that lack the centralized control that traditional news media has held on the publication of news items. It names "meme warfare" as a major contributor to the spread of misinformation at the root of this political climate, with the "alt-right"* at the keyboard. *A mollifying term for trolls of the white supremacists persuasion.
