To my eyes there are two unfortunate yet popular terms of the last 20 years: meme and frame. Both are of course true in certain regards but both are also often left so undeveloped as to lead to both uncritical thinking but also equivocation. Part of the reason for this is that neither idea was developed sufficiently in the works that popularized them.
