No. I don’t care for them either. They’re lazy attempts at humor. Some are mildly amusing, but mostly they’re shit. What’s disturbing is that they’ve become a form of communication, and the grammar and syntax of kids are showing that. Memes are making them dumb.
People were snipping out pieces of newspaper and sending them to eachother in the post as jokes, as soon as newspapers became a thing. People used to have silly paintings commissioned to send to eachother too.
It means, why don’t you make something you enjoy, instead of complaining about something you don’t enjoy?
People complained about books and newspapers when they were the new thing. I think we can all agree they didn’t make the world a worse place. Besides, the “hot thought” of a single psychologist does not make science. There are climate change deniers among climate scientists as well. (eg. Richard Lindzen)
Assuming everyone on here is a teen says a lot about you as well.

Memes are the DNA of the soul, friend.
No.
That is literally what it is though. The name meme was chosen because it’s supposed to be the cultural equivalent of a gene.
It’s literally graffiti. It’s lazy, and it’s lowbrow. I don’t care if you don’t like that.
Idk, I feel like complaining about culture instead of creating your own is lazy. But what do I know.
Whatever that means.
Back to the main subject, I’ll take the opinion of an actual psychologist over teenage randos.
