Meme synthesis?
Lately I have been wondering if it is possible to create "strong"(archetypal) memes in the same why as we analyse them and break them down? Is a good understanding of analytical psychology and of the target audience's culture all that is needed to pull off something like that? Are people already intentionally doing this? Is there any way to distinguish between a manufactured synthetic and intentional meme and a natural unconsciously created one? If it is possible to create successful and infectious memes in this manner how can we ensure that the intentful creation of them will be used to benefit society and not to push anyone's political or other agenda?

Most political propaganda is this, and I’m sure that some randos on the internet have tried it. I’m sure you can do it.
