How's this a meme?
The meaning of "meme" continues to drift. It's almost synonymous with "post" now.
Maybe even to the point where it "means" "something that can be perceived with any sense". It doesn't mean that at all, but people keep using it that way so I guess at some point that is the new definition 🤢
Literally always has been.
You had to hit me with the word "literally?" 😆
I don't know what you mean, though. "Meme" and "post" are two different words describing different things, even if they're often related. They aren't synonyms.
They are clearly trying to say that every post is a meme nowadays that it wouldn't make a difference if you used them interchangeably.
Check the description of the community.
It’s meant to be an inclusive version of “whitepeopletwitter”.
