MODERATORS
About 15 years ago I had to ask someone on Twitter to explain to me what a meme was. Since that time…the definition has changed drastically.
It's still a self-replicating thought. ..although the meaning has gotten broader in some areas, narrower in others, and much shallower overall.
I guess that makes about as much sense as anything does. Or as little.
It's more that the idea split into two concepts and "internet meme" is something else now. That happens with language and it's fine.
