With this lie escalating to violent threats against the Haitian community, we perhaps need to put a pause on joking about this insidious hoax. They are trying to start a race war, and memes likely aren't helping.

There's both humor and serious responses to this, both doing the same job of saying it's stupid lies. The alternative is to ignore it, which means it only circulates in the circles where it's meant to drum up real action instead of just a meme. Do you have another solution instead of countering it with how ridiculous it is?
