c. they are simple but vividly express a message or feeling.

Memes are popular in contemporary culture because they can convey a message or feeling in a simple and visually striking way. They often use humor, satire, or relatable scenarios to resonate with a wide audience. Additionally, memes are easily shareable and can spread rapidly through social media platforms, contributing to their popularity. While the emergence of social media has certainly helped facilitate the spread of memes, it is not the sole reason for their popularity.
