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.

I don't think jokes about triggering PTSD on purpose are funny. I think those are the kinds of jokes reactionaries make when they find the existence of disabled people offensive.
Didn't they themselves state that they have PTSD? How would they be a reactionary to the existence of people with PTSD?
It's called lateral violence, and it's unfortunately very common. They don't believe I have PTSD because they don't want to believe I have PTSD. If I were genuinely triggered by something they did on purpose, they'd be a total asshole. They don't want to think of themself as a total asshole, so they invented a justification to accuse me of faking trauma. It's such a common thing for abusive people to do that it's what the meme at the top of this thread is about.
