    This is for internet memes, not cultural memes. Those are two different things

    Nope, Internet memes are cultural memes

    and this doesn’t even fit the description of a cultural meme

    Also wrong

    This is a screenshot of political opinion

    Which is an idea that is spreading, and thus a meme

    Memes are like genes, that’s why the names are like that

      Cultural meme is, like you said: unit of cultural information that spreads by imitation.

      Internet memes are pictures that are either funny, ironic, or relateable.

      Those are two different things and this is neither. This is a screenshot of a political opinion.

        Yes, and that is also a:

        unit of cultural information that spreads by imitation.

        Sharing/Crossposting/rebloghing/etc.

        very simple concept you’re ailing to grasp spectacularly

        Also: if you think a screenshot of an opinion from a micro log site isn’t a meme GTFO microblogmemes ffs
