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.

"Hey guys, stop using a discussion forum to discuss a group of people who are provably responsible for many of your woes."
There’s a difference between what you think I said and what I actually said. But I understand your kneejerk response. It’s often the case when someone refutes a dearly held belief such as yours and your boomer nonsense. I’m sure your “provable” complaints are every bit as solid as the right wing’s complaints about immigrants, gays, trans people, people of color, etc. Can you even define “boomer”? Does boomer include everyone born during a specific range of years? From around the world? Of color, or just one race? My definition: it’s an advertisement term for white Americans, middle class or above, born 1945-64. The abysmal voter turnout over the last half century isn’t their fault. The world not being an affordable utopia isn’t their fault either. But sure, pin all the frustrations of the modern world on one generation, nobody from the centuries before and nobody since. It sounds so simple and easy.
