It doesn't have to be funny or include a cat or cartoon to be a meme.

    Thanks Mr. Dawkins, surely we've subscribed here for your rant in text!

    an idea, behavior, style, or usage that spreads from person to person within a culture

    Why do you think c/politics, c/news, c/politicalmemes, and c/bigbootybitches are separate comms? Why do comms with "meme" in the name exist at all? Literally everything on social media is ideas spread person to person within a culture.

    People go for "Meme" comms looking for content that's actually funny or clever, not just random jagoffs screaming "me have good opinion, circlejerk me now, pls!". Do better, I beg

    It's not even slightly clever to point out the similarity between Nazis and ICE? Yes, I think the connection is plain, but obviously culture at large doesn't or we wouldn't be allowing it to operate as it does.
