Wrong. Memetics describes the mechanism whereby mental programs get
propagated and demostrates that this mechanism is reletively independent of
the utility of the programs. It still "matters" (to me, anyway) what is
"right" (although we could, have, and will have a discussion on exactly
what that word means). Obviously it matters to each of us, as we are all
attempting to infect one another with our own ideas.
