ITS ALL COMPUTER!
Anthropologist 100 years from now will describe it like this:
Prior to the internet, memes existed only in newspaper form. Because of "the war" data wipe, we don't have any evidence of computer/digital based memes prior to 2071. However, with this newspaper, we can see that memes started in paper form delivered daily. This meant the value of each meme was much higher as only 4 or 5 could be consumed daily. With relation to the publication date of this newspaper, it would be decades before humanity invented shitposting.
