A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

MODERATORS
You can do this with any product - industry pair and go "such a strange dichotomy, they sell these products that make me happy but it's as if it's all about making money in the end". It's called capitalism.
That's intellectually lazy, companies quite simply aren't equally capitalistic (sociopathic)
How lazy of me not to consider some companies are relatively less capitalist/sociopathic (and probably use this for marketing purposes to sell you more of their stuff).
Alright, I'll nuance it: you can do this with almost any product
