Facebook famously rebranded this week, bringing all of its acquired properties like Instagram, Whatsapp, and Occulus under the same umbrella brand called ‘Meta’. A bit like what ‘Alphabet’ is to Google, only somehow much more toxic.
The ‘Meta’ promotional videos were blasted around the internet and starred Mark Zuckerberg, doing his best impression of a human being.
But by far, the most entertaining part of this corporate exercise were the memes created to lampoon the new brand:
