Generally speaking, left-wingers and soy boys hate memetics.
"The left can't meme"
Partly because they like to say simple things in the longest possible way. Memes do the opposite, they concentrate.
IMO, there's nothing wrong with having good memetics as long as you also have great fundamentals. Centralized/premined coins like Solana don't need memes because they literally have free coins that they can spend on marketing - but any real coin has to take the DOGE route.
Part of the issue these days is that any new coin can fail purely because of the community. In the old days, you were either a libertarian or an anarchocapitalist. That's generally who got interested into cryptocurrencies from 2009-2012.
After that, you started to get different groups coming in, which is inevitable in a growing space. There's literally self-identified communists that are into crypto now.
One of the biggest arguments pro-bitcoin is that it cannot get infected by the incoming AIDS. Generally, left wing statist views. Views advocating for premines. Views advocating for increased supply or tail emission. Basically, anything Keynesian or communist in nature.
As gen Z (degen left-curvers) are pretty much running the trends currently, us (right-curver Jedis) must see what they are doing and use it to our advantage.
That would mean using the power of our memetics to go and generate attention and liquidity on Solana, then utilising that exposure to teach that crowd about the true purpose of crypto.
If we don’t, we will only end up being mid-curvers ourselves.
