It is kind of related. Have you read about this journalist who is doing time for memes? https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/10/23/douglass-mackey-sentenced-for-encouraging-voting-via-text-fact-check/71259916007/

I've heard this story before, but I couldn't remember the details. I especially liked this paragraph. Do you think a lot of people believe that they can vote by text message?
Making memes disparaging political figures is not illegal. Mackey was sentenced for posting memes that encouraged Clinton supporters to vote via text message, which is not a valid way to vote.
