Re: Unclear about article word's meaning

I believe this from Merriam-Webster dictionary will explain it. In other words, it spread from person to person on Twitter and fed on itself to grow larger.

: an idea, behavior, style, or usage that spreads from person to person within a culture

What does "meme" mean? I looked it up on Google and still don't
understand. Could someone explain what it is in simple terms,
please? The word is in the article's third paragraph, if that helps.
