I'm saying you misunderstand the idea of memes, and in that, you misunderstand the purpose of MemeStreams.

First of all, everyone will have a different view of what the site is "for." Everyone's entitled to their own, but no one is obligated to share that view or go out of their way to see to it that your view is fulfilled.

MemeStreams doesn't care about helping you (or me, or anyone) find new bands, or new movies, or new books, or whatever.

Memes don't have purpose, or objective, any more than genes do. They simply exist, and propagate, and die off, and mutate, and so on.

] Are you trying to disagree with me?

You seem to want that. I'm explaining (or trying), not arguing.

I tend to agree with you about Whitman.
