Post memes here.
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
Honestly I hate how much I hold back, now. Too many communities fell for the cult of civility and think "here's detailed proof that you're a fucking liar" is worse behavior than "calm down, honey." Sometimes it is right and good to call people names. Punishing that, but not even addressing why someone might do that, is acting as a force multiplier for trolls. You can be an absolute monster in polite words.
To all moderators, on all platforms, I ask - if you don't stop people from being assholes, but you stop people from calling them assholes, who do you think benefits from that power structure?
