That’s the beauty of this terrible, terrible post: by not being remotely specific we can all imagine what word OP might be thinking of and imagine for ourselves whether it’s justified.
So perhaps a better phrasing would be “memes are supposed to be funny, not generic rage bait”
That’s not true, which is exactly why this is a good meme. The word meme was originally coined as a conceptual analogue to the word "gene*. Ideas spread and evolve, just like genes. Only in the last 15 years or so has it come to mean internet joke, and this is the direct result of people using the word in a different way than it was intended to be used. It doesn’t matter what word the OP had in mind when they made this meme (though gif is the most likely candidate), it’s accurate and relevant.
Oh, so you just don’t even understand the meme, now I get why you’re so upset! I recommend starting by reading the words left-to-right, top-to-bottom. If you don’t know how to pronounce one, just do your best. You can also ask an adult to help you, if there’s one nearby.
Right which is what I’m saying makes this a boring rage bait meme. It doesn’t contribute anything but triggers memories of conversations. Some people will think of things where they were annoyed at someone clearly misusing a word because they are stupid, then claiming “bro language, like, flows and shit”. Some people will think of (apparently, according to some other responder), people getting butthurt that the original 10000 year old meaning of the word nimrod got corrupted over time and think “yeah, language changes, think of all those nimrods”. But it doesn’t take a real stance or so anything interesting other than trigger feelings of annoyance in one direction or the other. So it’s rage bait.

Right, so memes are supposed to be funny cause they are internet jokes.
