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.

So I love this reply because it's emblematic of missing the point. I am not defending piracy with my original statement, at all. This is your own conclusion. Piracy is still (depending on the country) illegal and subject to punishment and enforcement. If you want to engage or not is entirely up to you, I'm not justifying anything. I am clarifying an important point. Where it matters is in the application of penalties and damages for the aggrieved.
You are "clarifying" incorrectly. Stealing does not mean removal of property. You making up a definition and basing some palid screed around that as a premise is not a point that I missed, it's a point you based on nonsense.
