Memes are part of an artistic movement the majority of us participate in daily, whether we want to or not. Crafting the most teeth-clenchingly niche ‘Condescending Wonka’ meme to clap back at someone in the bowels of a subreddit, or physically emulating ‘Confused Nick Young’ IRL - or you may have that annoying friend constantly tagging you on some viral news page in memes you only just about understand. They’re sure to be in their millions, utilised by pre-teens with screens for eyes and multinational ad corps, and used as much ‘wrongly’ as right, as internet crusaders will tell you when you’ve missed the mark. Memes are part of a culture that should be celebrated and documented like any other era-illustrating art form: they’re reacting to social change, political injustice and showcasing the best of lowbrow humour. These are some of the best memes we could find this week.
