Does this really constitute as a meme? Idk man, memes should make me laugh.

You could try using concise language that clarifies your position to avoid being confused with MAGA. It doesn't make you laugh but what does it make you feel?

A meme is any idea that can spread

This is specifically an image macro, a type of meme that is an image with text superimposed on it, usually in a "top text, bottom text" format

The term is significantly older than the internet and has never required being funny, though the funny ones are most popular on the Internet
