    Extra-canonically he was certainly talking a lot about dank images:

    Jesus said, “When you see your likeness, you are happy. But when you see your images that came into being before you and that neither die nor become visible, how much you will have to bear!”

    • Gospel of Thomas saying 84

    […] Jesus said to them, “When you make the two into one, […] an image in place of an image, then you will enter [the kingdom].”

    • Gospel of Thomas saying 22

    (This was more relating to Plato’s concept of eikon and what was effectively a version of the simulation hypothesis in antiquity, but if we throw out the context it could potentially be talking about making memes.)
