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.

I'm still not totally clear on where the line for plants is, what's the deal with phytoplankton? Why isn't brown algae a plant? What are archaea? Also wtf is a species? is there a point in learning biology where things start to make sense again or does in only get muddier from here
Well if not animals, what are they? Plants? Mushrooms? lmao
Mushrooms are Plants! /s
I have never in my life met a person who thought that insects aren't animals, what are you talking about?
A lot of people appear to think that animal=mammal or animal=vertebrate. I remember when in history class we had to discuss differences between humans and other animals. The girl I had as my partner told me fish and dolphins weren't animals.
i envy you. i've met people who don't thrnk birds are animals, including one veterinarian.
birds must be a carrot. Surely?
I mean, yeah, government drones are not animals, I don't see the problem here.
Do they also believe that birds aren't real?
Lots of people think that animal means mammal. They are animals, but they are not mammals.
is that kinda like how beastkin aren't monsters because they can speak?
if that's the case, are elves people or demons?
further, dragons that talk, should they be considered beastkin or monsters?
I mean, considering that this is a successful meme on two different platforms and that there are multiple comments giving their own examples, I would assume that it's a behaviour that a lot of people come across, regardless of your personal experience.
We live in a world where people who believe in jewish space lazers and think they're going to get 5G from vaccines exist, and you find this hard to believe?
The look to which my response is "Oh... I'm sorry I didn't know about your disability".
Try telling anybody that Humans are animals too and there's a better than 50% chance they will argue with you about that as well.

Can someone explain the memes template/what it is trying to convey.
I get the text, but I am unfamiliar with the meme and what the face it meant to be portraying.
I took it to be another version of this Homelander reaction. Basically a look of disdain and disgust. Spiked with a bit of superiority complex.
This particular image is just doing the rounds now because it's from a recent Sweeney Todd interview, or whatever her name is.
