What memes and shitposts are actually weirdly deep / philosophical?

Godspeed, Harold.
The Trolley Problem meme originates from a philosophical thought experiment that presents an ethical dilemma: whether to pull a lever to divert a runaway trolley, killing one person instead of five. Initially proposed by philosopher Philippa Foot in 1967, it has evolved into various memes that exaggerate the moral choices involved, often depicting ridiculous scenarios to highlight the complexity of ethical decision-making.
This interactive site lets you play such absurd scenarios out. There are lots of other fun games on the site as well, be careful not to use the whole afternoon on it :)

Pull the lever, take the money, kill the rich man
Neato, thanks! Now I am the master of life and death! Very cool that you can also see how others have decided.
Wojak is more than a face template.
I feel like Mr. Bones' Wild Ride could qualify. If only in a sort of existential crisis kind of way.
Maybe Loss?
I actually love mr bones wild ride ty for reminding me of it.
