wholesome meme

Feel-good internet image

A wholesome meme is internet content that evokes warmth, kindness, or gentle positivity rather than irony or cynicism.

Where most memes trade in sarcasm or absurdity, wholesome memes feature supportive messages, cute animals, or earnest encouragement: My mom just discovered wholesome memes and now she texts me one every morning.

The term emerged as a deliberate counterpoint to darker internet humor.
