Who Should Be Making Money Off of Memes?

- If you’ve been on the internet recently, you’ve probably seen the Kylie Jenner Rise and Shine meme.
What originated on tiktok from a studio tour Kylie was doing of her cosmetics quickly took the internet by storm. From parodies of Kylie Jenner participating on the voice, to hilarious remixes.
This then got me thinking. Who technically deserves to make money off this meme anyways? Or memes in general?

Memes are sacred public domain in these tough times. Do we really need to capitalize on every aspect of life? Lets the memes be.
Your channel has some stellar production going on, man!
Makes a video about about memes, makes the video exactly 4:20 mins long. Haha nice!
I'm glad you mentioned Peaches. It highlights another issue on how slang terms that originated from African American Vernacular English (AAVE) reach the mainstream and black creators are not credited
I think memes shouldn't be monetized since it's something the internet shares with each other, to have a good laugh or to try out one's editing skills. It's simply a joke or a knowledge of something that's on the internet. Besides, memes tend to die in half a week or if it's lucky, a month. So if one is able to monetize memes, they probably won't have much time to milk it.
I think the subject of the meme should be the one that makes money off of it, like they currently do.Well the subjects of the meme are really not making money off of the meme itself, but capitalizing on consumers interest in the meme. Which you cant say they shouldn't do because that is exactly what the person who made the meme did in the first place. Basically person A pimps person B, then person B decide to just pimp themselves and make way more money. Person B is definitely the one who should be making money because the one being pimped is the one who brings the value, and it just so happens in memes, the person who has the opportunity to capitalize the most off of pimping someone happens to be the person getting pimped.
Video is 4:20 in length with 69 likes. Nice.
