A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

I've found that streamers tend to have pretty nice merch. Unfortunately it tends to be pretty expensive because of special requirements and fairly small production runs. They also interact with the viewers directly, so complaints likely come up on stream.
It seems like Youtubers on the other hand just send a picture to a merch producer and let them deal with it.
Custom T-shirts with extremely limited runs (hundreds) cost $10. Creators are selling them for $20+. Creator merch is a scam or if you want to look at it more positively, a donation with an item in return but no items sold by a creator is even close to a reasonable profit margin.
Buying for $10 and selling for $20 is pretty reasonable. You do realize there are other costs than just material right? They aren’t taking home $10 on every sale.
