Books about the effects of the internet, digital technology, social media and the proliferation of memes as the primary mode of online discourse?

Doesn't have to necessarily be about all at once. Both fiction and non fiction welcome.

>Marshall McLuchan - The Medium is the Message
>Jean Baudrillard - Simulacra and Simulation
>John David Ebert & Brain Francis Culkin - Hypermodernity
The last one more so than the other two but Baudrillard and McLuhan are great resources to keep in mind on this topic

the book is suppose be written like a vapid sjw tweeting like how some African village is being buttfucked by some army, write about how femboys and traps are transphobic slurs, mention terfs and how they're haters, can't see anything as not misogynist or brimming with racism, change their profile pic for a day in solidarity with some trending movement, and end the day retweeting ben&jerry's woke statements on blm. They do all of this while oblivious to how twitter is a company taking tax cuts with using the sjw as a +1 data point for whoever the highest bidder is and how b&j are using the movement to help sell their teeth rotting obesity helpers for a profit while gaining social points among the people. I don't recommend actually reading the book, it is the biggest example of "ironic shitposting is still shitposting" with instances of the book telling you it is bad. In reviews, it is supposed to be anti-literature. Considering we're both on this board, I think we both knew that and know this book is shit. It is very interesting in its trolling.
I think I should re-evaluate my life at times.
