The thing about memes is that short, quippy ones are the ones that gain traction and get shared a lot. Much of theory is densely worded using terminology most people don't find accessible. In order to make effective communist memes, we have to simplify things, which necessitates a loss of nuance. That loss of nuance can lead to more harm than good.
