Over the past decade or so, memes have become a deep-rooted element of the digital world, particularly on social media. But you’ll be surprised to learn that it was a term coined by biologist Richard Dawkins back in 1976.
It was meant to describe cultural trends that become rapidly popular. Going by his definition the idea of democracy would be classified as a meme.
