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.

That's fucked up
The fact that you picked defending “guys who try to pick up women when they’re stuck on an elevator together” as a hill to stand on is fucked up. The fact that you don’t have the experience to recognize that certain aggressively shameless people don’t care about a verbal reprimand is also telling.
Now just in case it’s where the hangup is, my core position is incredibly nuanced. Reason should be the go-to and I look down on people who think they can solve all their problems with their fists. Don’t hit kids. Parts of the criminal justice system are draconian and counterproductive. The ultra rich don’t care about fines or laws and need the occasional bat to the knee.
They’re not defending that, they’re criticizing your apparent thirst for violence. I agree with them, you seem pretty messed up for reacting the way you do.
I also do not like the idiotic pick-up culture and I especially dislike subjecting someone to it when they cannot easily leave. It is pretty insane though to wish for someone to ‘die in a fire’ for this. And you’re either too stubborn to back down or you really (think you) mean what you say. I’m going to assume the former, which just makes you an annoying loser instead of a full-blown psycho.
People can be two things
