[tau19182]

Its my 6th plague idea,I hope you like it.
A memetical plague is a powerfull meme,that exploits glitches of the human mind and is spread by infected humans.The meme changes a humans mind,and makes him infect other humans,wia speach,text,video composing or other ways of human-to-human communication.The meme can be changed by humans,to become more or less infective.An example: Gangnam Style,that got 2 milliard views.
Another example:religion.

Just read a book by Henry Cattner about a disease similar to the memetical plague.
It was a rhyme,that made the nazis irritated and unable to concentrate.
It was something like this "Левой,левой,Левантинец с револьвером,леваков не переносит,хотя держит нос налево".

Sounds a bit like ISIS and their radicalism
Or propaganda
