    I think his meme is meant for something in a broader sense, it’s basically mean an idea that spread via imitation, and we human learn and advance mostly due to this imitation.

    Edit:ohh i see what you mean now, and yes i agree.

      as such, the internet meme became the most poignant example of the term, but i would never say that internet memes are definitive of the term itself.
