He's talking about the people on knowyourmeme, not the people who found the source of the avatar.

To which end, the answer to his question is "people who like memes", a lowly class indeed.

Knowyourmeme is an amazing site when you encounter someone who has never come into contact with, say, "all your base" or "over 9000", and you want a quick summation of the history of the thing.

In those two cases they actually have videos explaining that history.

We live in one of the stranger cyberpunk dystopian futures.

It's kind of like how someone who's never tasted liquor before will gravitate toward wine coolers, while the seasoned alcoholic can find God in a handle of bottom-shelf vodka.

Well, the emote doesn't have a ring, so it's easy to get confused.
