Maybe I’m just getting old but I feel we should bring this meme to greener pastures…
I think you’re right, I was actually just watching a video essay about this very topic! I was surprised there could be so much nuance to a topic like memes and how they evolve and decay. here’s the link if you wanna check it out https://youtu.be/Yb6dZ1IFlKc?si=pL1mtRwAnBPW8leQ
