Original Note:
Mackey wasn’t jailed for “making memes”. He was convicted, by a jury of his peers, of conspiring to systematically defraud people of their vote, using many different fraudulent messages. None of them are correctly described as “memes”. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/31/nyregion/douglass-mackey-trial-twitter-misinformation.html
