    You missed out the part about it being copied. This is an original work as far as I can tell, it would become a meme if for example it was reposted in many places with different text.

    Comics can of course be memes, but I don’t think this one is. What’s the Loss that you’re referring to?

        I meant original as in unmodified. You linked to the same comic.

        Yes this is my first day on the internet.

        In the interest of actually having a good faith discussion, I agree with the definition given here, for example:

        If you draw a picture and call it a meme but nobody else recognizes it or wants to replicate it, it’s not a meme.

        It would be interesting to discuss if you disagree with this definition.
