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.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- 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

Yeah, I hate these stories for the amount of Big Ethical Talk it beings out in people. "I would stand by my partner no matter what" is the "I could fight a bear" of emotional labor. Unless you've had a serious illness or been very close to someone who has (not parents or siblings, a voluntary relationship), then you just really don't know what you're talking about.
Anyone can fight a bear. Just not for longer than a couple of seconds mostly. But that's no reason to give up on your loved ones before even trying.
Can you shed some light over this part
