That has been a big issue that led us here, that people started taking Memes at face value.
You're spot on. There's far more I'd like to say about third parties (and have been in the comments). Memes don't lend themselves well to longform opinions, and most discussions need to be longform.
They're better as a starting point for conversation instead of actual conversation.
