A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

I agree with your comment, but like I commented above. There is a difference between contributing to a broken system that exploits human necessities and surviving in a system. Ticketmaster has buying power, a corporate landowner has buying power. Not too many of us think Blackrock and Ticketmaster are good for humanity. Barney here buying a few Elmo at Christmas is actually showing people there is a problem without killing anyone (by taking away housing, food, arable land). Maybe people aren't pointing the finger at the people responsible for this broken system.
