I don't think saying "All memes are political" is exclusively a right thing to dislike.
Especially since a lot of memes grew from people who were absolutely too young to be thinking about politics.
Sure there are memes that are political, but to say all memes are is just kindof...appropriating?
I mean it's entirely possible I don't know the political significance of pepe, but I was also never really shown a reason to ask.
