I think that is an interesting thought. But it’s not necessary to be a repost to be a meme. The propagation happens not only from the reposting, but the voting. It’s more likely to be viewed more if it’s up voted by many. The theme itself can be Dawkins’ meme without being copied verbatim via reposting.

Do you guys think that by pointing this out, it’s going to stop? Just let people share things they like, and if you don’t, move on.
