Fortnite $19 card meme: The viral meme that is taking social media by storm

The new year started with a new trend in Fortnite. An individual going by the name @mrblocku uploaded a video on TikTok while holding onto a Fortnite $19 card. Although the video was pretty erratic, he shot it as a part of his giveaway which he frequently indulges in.

He goes on to say in the video that he's giving the card away. He asked his followers to share his video and warned trolls not to get blocked.

"OK. $19 Fortnite card. Who wants it? And yes, I'm giving it away. Remember: Share. Share. Share...and trolls? DON'T GET BLOCKED."

The original video was deleted after the giveaway ended but the internet didn't want to let meme-worthy content slip out of their hands. They re-uploaded the video and one meme after another followed.

Memes are a healthy way of expressing one's sense of humor provided there isn't any malicious intent behind it. It's very easy to demean someone using memes, and that's something that should be avoided.

The Fortnite $19 card meme tried to spread a message of positivity and given the fact that the meme went viral indicates that it hit the mark. That may not be much, but it could definitely be counted as a way to dissipate toxicity in Fortnite.
