A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

Not even for people? I dont know why that sounds so strange but it does.
Neither does finnish
Yeah in common spoken language we call everything "it", except sometimes pets are "he/she", because people are signaling they're valued as persons are
Edit// we only have two third person pronouns, se (it) and hän (he/she)
There is only one third person singular pronoun ("O") used for people (regardless of gender) and objects alike.
Huh once again, hungarian is very similar to turkish. We have "ő" for that. No aninimity or gender distinction. Tho we do have this, that and a third one which i guess translates to yonder? But yeah in some constructions you can specify aninimity with them.
Also the word for "they" is "onlar" which is just "o" with the prular suffix "lar" attached, that's like using "its" to mean "them."
