It's from an episode of ST: The Next Generation where they're stuck in a time loop. When they realize they're stuck in a loop, they say "So we could have seen this [presentation explaining the time loop] a dozen times already?"
The joke is different variations of that and seeing them a dozen, a hundred times. I think it's just about played itself out, but you may still see a few coming through.
It's hilarious because every time it seems to die down, it seems to come back strong again ... but I think you're right, it's starting to wane but every time I think it's over, someone restarts it all again.
But if it goes any further ... they'll have to move all those posts to its own community at c/StarTrekTimeLoop
And it’s the source of this quote by Worf.
