The argument is voided because Chinese memes are spreading regardless of government censorship. Even government agencies are making cringe propaganda videos inspired by popular memes. The only problem is that those memes are circulating inside Chinese language sphere and mostly inside the Great Firewall. The effectiveness of "censorship" is greatly exaggerated. In many cases, censorship itself is a fuel to memes, fighting censorship is a meme of its own called Chongta (crush the towers, derived from pvp MOBA games)
America does not have a superior meme culture. What's more damaging to its "immune system"? Ignorance & Arrogance.
