I’m wondering: do people just like memes or are they being forced to use them to talk about relevant topics?

Wouldn’t it be better to have more serious threads and less memes that hint at political/news arguments?

    He gave an elaborate yes. Yes, memes are frontpage because that’s what is up voted. People like pics. Even in comments, I find my replies that include a photo get far more up votes than text alone.
