    you know a meme is just anything that gets shared, duplicated, replicated, or repeated, right? calling things memes is a meme. society is a meme. civilization is a meme. Dee’s Nuts being overly salted is a meme

      I know that, but since internet meme became I thing it has gained a second definition as a type of joke, which is the meaning intended in the names of meme communities. there are places for politics (including political memes) and this is not one of them.

        Whether this fits your definition of a meme or not, this is the kind of thing that needs to be shared as widely as possible.

        The world needs this kind of support from as many people as possible right now.
