Gus Dur's Meme 'PKI Toys Suharto, PKI Film For PKI' Circulates, Ex Spokesperson Denies
JAKARTA - Netizens on Twitter were excited by the circulation of a meme featuring a joke from Abdurrahman Wahid or nicknamed Gus Dur. In a meme, Gus Dur said that the PKI was Suharto's toy.
"Children's films are for children. Adult films are for adults. PKI films are specifically for PKI people. That's how you report," said Gus Dur.
Gus Dur's meme with a laughing pose was uploaded by the @Rommy Sudiyarto account, quoted on Thursday, September 30. This account's tweet says "I think Gusdur, the original father of democracy, will not talk nonsense, Gusdur is an extension of the God of the Universe who is honest and strong with the wisdom of the Almighty."
The excitement about memes has even reached Adhie Massardi, the former spokesman for Gus Dur. Adhie denied that it came from Gus Dur.
"HOAX. For important things, both statements of attitude and those conveyed by Gus Dur through jokes, there is always repetition, repeated by Gus Dur in various places and events," wrote Adhie on his Twitter account, @AdhieMassardi.
"I have never heard of this joke about G30S/PKI while accompanying Gus Dur. Arifin C Noer, (stdr) friend of GD." Adhie tweeted.
