OK we've got the answer now courtesy of
@latikambourke - they're doing deliberately bad memes so people rinse them via quote tweet and share the message. (I'm not trying to make this sound obvious, it isn't, I learn new stuff every day.)https://twitter.com/latikambourke/status/1186645297168027651 … -

Utterly fascinating, on Australian campaigners who are now working for the Tories: "We'd make [memes] really basic and deliberately lame because they'd get shares and lift our reach - that made our reach for the harder political messages higher," one campaign staffer says."https://twitter.com/latikambourke/status/1186645297168027651 …

The French Olympic logo tumbles out of bed on a Parisian morning. She tousles her messy bob, dons breton stripes and ballet flats and whisks down the stairs from her fifth-floor apartment to grab a baguette before enigmatically texting two men who are pursuing her romantically.pic.twitter.com/5R2PVaXaa6
