normative burnout

The ultimate fate of any meme that achieves total hegemony. With no countermeme to struggle against, the original meme fades away due to disuse. For example, if smoking were actually stamped out, with no smokers left, smoking would have room to eventually rise again since the antismoking meme would have been forgotten.
The urge to ban landmines underwent normative burnout one hundred years after all countries had disposed of their last mine stockpiles, causing some nations to begin experimenting with buried antipersonnel explosives fifty years thereafter. It was an idea old enough to seem new.

False Narratives

Some things that some people make up about some certain people or some certain things just because they love them or hate them. However, they can only be False Narratives if what they love aren't as good as they make them out to be and if what they hate aren't as bad as they make them out to be. On the other hand, there are some times when what they do love are really as good as they make them out to be and what they hate are really as bad as they make them out to be.
Some people compare the President to Adolf Hitler, no matter who it is and some people say some certain things are the greatest thing since sliced bread, they are clearly both False Narratives since even if said President is bad, they still wouldn't be as bad as Adolf Hitler was and in reality, no one really knows for sure what the greatest thing since sliced bread is.
