Abstract
The article, while discussing the ‘demand for respect’ for political leaders in the contemporary media narrative, delineates the rubric of policing political expression and protest language of the masses and how it conforms to the older forms of persuasion. Through an analysis of online media texts, the article then limns the disjunctures in this sovereignty through newer languages of online memes and the absurdity of future mediascape.
