Richard Dawkins. You guys merged Charles Darwin and Christopher Hitchens with Dick Dawkins 😂

[@joffrethegiant]

We sure did. That was rough!

[@LarsonHicksShow]

@joffrethegiant I should also mention that I encountered “memes” in Aristotle’s “On Rhetoric” this last week. Or at least what I think is the precursor.

[@Cinnamonbuns13]

@@LarsonHicksShow I thought there was some connection between meme and "mimetic desire" by Gerard, but I think that's just my brain making that.

[@joffrethegiant]

@@LarsonHicksShow Yep, that is right. I suppose I meant in a pop culture context.

[@joffrethegiant]

@@Cinnamonbuns13 @larsonhicksshow There is absolutely a connection. Mimetics have been studied from of old.
