Yes it’s an alternative for the same format, just minus Stephen Crowder. The post is saying that Stephen Crowder doesn’t deserve to be the meme format and so uses Calvin instead
No, it says Steven Crowder doesn’t deserve a meme format. His image doesn’t have to be in a meme for it to be his format.
The title of the post is “Meme improvement rule,” which implies that this format is improved when Crowder is replaced by Calvin. The OP also provides a template for the Calvin version of the meme.
This leads me to believe that the post is saying that this version is not Stephen Crowser’s meme format. Stephen Crowder may have pioneered the format, but it has been reclaimed by Calvin, and this specific meme format with Calvin is no longer Stephen Crowder’s
I understand what the meme is trying to say. I’m saying that I don’t think it succeeded. I don’t think this is different enough to not still be the Stephen Crowder format.
Well, a lot of the commenters here didn’t even know his name. I read about him once but all my brain registered is “the change my mind guy is an asshole”, his actual name flew out of my mind almost immediately.
I think the people calling it “the Stephen Crowder meme format” are in the absolute minority.
