Because its not a meme, but an opinion from a person who shared his personal thoughts on the internet.
Not everything becomes a meme by screenshoting.
I mean we are on /policalmemes are we not
No, but it does when it's shared and discussed.
Memes are more than just image macros and are much older of a concept than the internet
Dude it's a fucking screenshot of a political statement on another social media platform.
Look I know kilroy was here but that isn't the same fucking thing as sharing an opinion, someone liking it, and sharing it. That's not all that makes a meme.
Wrong. Memes are informational genes, ie ideas that spread and share. A political opinion being shared is a meme.
You seem like one of those weirdos who demands we only call image macros memes, which is stupid and wrong
