FAQ About Role of Cartoons in Cultural and Political Awareness

How do internet memes differ from political cartoons in shaping public opinion?
Internet memes and political cartoons both shape public opinion, but they do so differently. Memes are generally humorous images or videos that spread rapidly online and can influence opinions by highlighting specific aspects of an issue or event in a catchy, memorable way. Political cartoons, while also aiming to be humorous, often provide deeper, more nuanced critique through artistic representation, targeting an informed audience seeking more detailed commentary.
