    @Kolanaki@pawb.social He also said that memes mutate and evolve in a way analogous to genes. The concept of memes has itself mutated and evolved to the point that it nowadays most commonly refers to recognisable image macros (though in the Dawkinsian sense, an image macro is not actually a meme, but rather an instance of one meme).
