you can't steal a meme. Thats what makes it a meme. It goes around as a culutural phenomenon, being riffed on and referenced and turning into a meta thing and then dying.

Even this meme was stolen.
Ideas improve. The meaning of words participates in the improvement. Plagiarism is necessary. Progress implies it. It embraces an author's phrase, makes use of his expressions, erases a false idea, and replaces it with the right idea.

A meme's whole purpose is to propagate.

Instead of just taking whatever someone else posted, I spend about 20 seconds to a minute on average to find a better copy using reverse image search or just find the original post. Sometimes it's a tweet and I just take a new screenshot. Comics are generally really easy to find the original.
