Either way there are opinions on both sides of the matter

Three, actually: there are people who know what a meme is, people who don't know but don't care enough to want to force their mistaken pet definition on others, and then there's your side.

there needs to be a discussion

There really doesn't, no.

Then let's go ahead and get rid of communities since everything is a meme. Everything can just be dumped here.

No

since everything is a meme

That's ridiculous. Just because it's more than your hyperspecific pet definition doesn't mean that there's no bounds.

Everything can just be dumped here.

Again, that's a ridiculous strawman argument.

Not hyperspecific and not a strawman but hyperbole. However yes, several communities could be axed and everything dumped here by your own definition. Just quit already. My position is a few posts up and you blew through it with your close-mindedness and insults.

It seems you always have to have the last word so ahead of time just assume I won't read it. I'm done entertaining crap snark.
