Oh for fucks sake.
Are people nowadays so deprived of creativity, that they latch onto chain messages and want to start copyrighting them or something?

>Stolen

Also if it's a meme, then it's supposed to be stolen by everyone.
It's not a piece of art that people are tracing and claiming as their own and the creator sure as hell isn't supposed to claim fame over creating the fucking thing.
But of course this is way beyond the attention seeking normies comprehension.
Memes aren't fun little brainfarts to them, they're probably considered a fucking status symbol or something.

>Not by just anyone, mind you: In the hours after Olin’s tweet *celebrating a great moment for women* went viral, it was apparently lifted, without credit, by a series of men. Many of them were themselves journalists or political operatives; several have since deleted their tweets after followers objected.

>“They apparently had zero appreciation of the irony,” an exasperated Olin told Intersect by DM. “Honestly I think it’s a wider anthropological sign of what the Internet is like now and I’m resigned to that — but the white men appropriating it last night of all nights was a bit too much for me.”

>Olin is not naive about the way attribution and appropriation work — make that don’t work — online: She’s a social media strategist for Democratic campaigns and was the architect behind Barack Obama’s wildly successful social media strategy in 2012. She points to the infamous case of the “Hi Becky” meme, or “the Fat Jew’s entire existence”: Basically, there’s no standards for attribution in viral culture … which is how people like Matt McDermott can get a funny text and tweet the joke out himself without ever crediting the intermediary or the person who wrote it.

The internet is kind of like the American government, where, instead of laws, we have memes.

All memes start as "bills", which are just posts on 4chan. They have to go through 4chan before they are reviewed by Reddit and Tumblr. While they are being reviewed, the press discusses the principle of these memes on publication sites like YouTube Comments and 9gag. Once the meme has been reviewed, if it is cleared, it will go to the memelord. If the memelord approves of it, it officially becomes a meme and spreads like cancer on Twitter and Facebook. If it get's vetoed by the memelord, then it reserves itself to Reddit, Tumblr, and 4chan until it is reviewed again.

TL:DR All internet memes must come from 4chan in order to be classified as a meme.
