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.

Sometimes when you pick up baby snakes they get scared and bite you, but since they are tiny and don't have any teeth yet it does zero damage and is just adorable
Until its a rattle snake and you die 10 min after
Or mama notice you messing with her babies and you ded
With the adult rattle snakes you can get to a hospital as it takes a little longer to kick in. The young rattle snakes give you way more venom and will kill you really fast.
That's myth
https://wsed.org/baby-snake-venom-myth/
According to your own article its partially true
The only thing it says it's that a baby snake can also kill you and that an snake bite is a snake bite, but as it says in the last quote: Adults are more dangerous that youngs.
They are actually born with a tooth called the egg tooth!
And once their venom fangs grow in, they often have a more dangerous bite than adult because they don't yet know how to control dosage.
That's a myth, there's not enough venom in a baby snake to kill you nor does it have long enough fangs or that level of toxicity
EDIT: I was wrong, a baby snake can still kill you. It's just that an adult injects more venom in you making it worse.
