If everything is a meme then nothing is a meme.

Internet meme means a picture that is funny, ironic or relateable. This is none of those. This is a screenshot of an political opinion.

You’re missing the point. Meme isn’t something you gatekeep. It’s simply a term for any arbitrary amount of idea. Everything is a meme.

Your argument is like saying “nothing has mass if you call everything mass”.
