Meme is superset of your "internet meme". Meme is any idea which successfully replicated itself to another mind. If you posted it on the internet it probably succeeded.
No please, go on...

Considering you started with an "actually" post gatekeeping memes, funny comment.
I find myself disagreeing with both sides. OP is gatekeeping what a meme is and you have a very out of date definition and not even the guy who came up with the term.
As a true descriptivist, I think a meme is what people call a meme. If it's posted and upvoted in a meme community, it is a meme. Let the language community decide on that. Later, you can analyze how the meme culture and the definition of meme has shifted.
But of cause, everyone is entitled to an opinion what a meme should define and make memes about it. Just don't frame it as if you are right and everyone else is wrong.
Another swing and a miss. But good on you for being persistent.
You should take this L brother you’re embarrassing yourself
Loss? Bitch please. This is showing exactly how many of you idiots mindlessly support any garbage posted in this community.
And yet nobody's supporting yours.
This post must be the WORST of the usual garbage. Congrats!
Nice try, but this is actually a meme.
So toxic.
The irony The irony!!
