A meme is a self-replicating mutable phenomena, a meme by definition cannot be accurate ... a meme can be memorable but the memory is of a transient state that exists, again by definition, transiently. meme is a technical term. A useful trope is a metaphor :-) a metaphor uses analogy to express a concept by association. the accuracy of a metaphor is subjective and the memory of a poor a poor analogy can be difficult to shift if not explicitly corrected. trope is a technical term. clumsy, nasty and the other pejorative terms you used in your response are neither meme nor trope.
