The Disinformation Governance Board meme gained massive traction in April 2022 following the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's announcement of a new board to combat online misinformation. Critics and internet users immediately drew parallels to the 'Ministry of Truth' from George Orwell’s 1984. The memes often feature Nina Jankowicz, the board's first executive director, particularly focusing on her past social media posts and videos. This meme template is primarily used to satirize government attempts to regulate speech, highlight perceived hypocrisy in media monitoring, and express skepticism toward official narratives in the digital town square.
