They have been complaining for at least three weeks. When I saw this post I had a hunch that it was the same person and I was right. Just an apparently bitter person that doesn’t comorehend that “meme” is not what they think it should be

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.

Who made you the authority on memes? Oh right, nobody.

So with the exact same amount of authority on the subject as you: Yes that is how internet memes work.

Damn, this post had potential to galvanized folks to make better memes but your comments show you’re a dick about it.

Agreed. I get annoyed when I see a post here that’s just a gif of a full commercial. Rather than be a dick, I usually just downvote and move on. I’m torn on this one because it’s a solid post critiquing the community to improve, but the comments from OP are a toxic train wreck.

Yeah. I agree with the post, but OP seems like they deserve to be on Reddit.

Since OP is being cringe in the comments, I want to take this opportunity to thank all the meme posters on c/memes. You all are the real MVPs (meme).

But they’re not the one making a meme complaining about meme quality.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Memes can be anything.

It’s all art. Even if you don’t like it.
