A meme that's too wordy generally takes itself too seriously, which is unfunny.

I don't understand this post. Memes died in like 2013

It's a simple matter of generic suitability. There are some media that are text-based (poetry, prose fiction, etc.), some that are purely pictorial (painting, sculpture, etc.), some that are purely auditory (music, radio drama, etc.), some that involve multiple senses (cinema, live theatre, etc.), and so and and so forth. What is suitable to a genre in one medium may be inappropriate to genres in another. The meme is a visual medium that uses both image and text, but like most media that combine the two (like picture-books and comics) the presence of the image correlates with a de-emphasizing of text. Because, in this genre, the message is supposed to be compact and in large part conveyed by the associations of the image (e.g., Ancap Ball signifying that the text refers to an imagined and absurd scenario in which anarcho-capitalist ideas are put into practice), the use of large quantities of text represents a break with convention and so is rejected by those familiar said conventions.

Cringe midwit wall of text.
Right wing memes are based because they're based, lefty memes are just cringe.

a meme... a meme that strikes the souls of the youth, it must be absurd! it must be detached! it must be a simple nod to online memetic tradition-- didacticism, any appeal to moral authority, will KILL any humor right in its tracks.
it must belong to its own virtual-social context for the sake of itself, and never for an outside ideology or influence.
if the meme cares about something, it's too late!! it's dead already.

Because that’s the Twitter meme format, and Twitter enforced a character limit.

Right wing meme's appeal to immature people and usually the punchline is 'ow you can't say that', lefty memes are more sophisticated and sometimes it's more some agitprop to educate you about a thing or two.

Left wingers think memes are a platform from which to communicate viewpoints and back their points with arguments. Right wingers see memes as modern propaganda posters.

Is capitalism considered right-wing still given that all major corporation have gone megawoke?

Capitalism is inherently left wing :3, as are classical and neoliberalism and "conservativism". The only right wing political stances are fascism, monarchism and theocracies
