This is a really good point, and I'd like to add that older memes, such as the ones that we are revisiting as a community, seemed to be more cohesive and less fracturing to the entirety of the internet community once upon a time. As the internet grew and became more diverse in platforms, so did the memes, creating fractures. It's almost like the internet became the Tower of Babel with meme, these olds ones just remind us of a more unified internet.
