how does a body like the eu plan on enforcing a ‘meme ban’

likely the same way they're trying to limit free speech across the continent in varied ways.

make overly broad law, wait for seemingly harmless example, prosecute, sentence harshly.

over the entire culture very little effect happens with only a sprinkle of prosecutions, but the culture shifts a tiny tiny bit.

what is likely to happen is some sort of hatespeech meme ban, that someone get's prosecuted under for posting some Kekistan-esque parody of it. as with the "gas the jews" pug guy.

they are discussing measures that would essentially force content providers to use upload filters.

Pretty funny how it's the only issue that alt-right parties and green/left parties agree on.

personal liberty vs a paternalistic/authoritarian state is one of the major political fault lines of our times. one which, in my opinion, is rather independent from the usual left/right dichotomy.
