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.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- 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

I disagree, with the exception that some learn faster (which isn't "prodigy").
Even the masters spent years, even decades training before creating their masterpieces. They copied, they failed, but above all, they worked hard for years to become good.
Of course the masters worked hard. I'm saying that no matter how hard you work, you aren't going to become Mozart or Einstein. Hard work is important, but it also isn't the only factor.
You ain't gonna be Mozart or Einstein with that attitude! 😉
Sure, but people have to work for it, there are no shortcuts.
