"I demand a recount!" is a phrase used to express resistance to a decision made, usually in regards to a vote; when used, it is often in a melodramatic and/or comical fashion.
Although the concept of demanding a recount has been around for the while, the phrase "I demand a recount" was popularized as a meme following the Bush v. Gore case for the 2000 election for the U.S. presidency.
Due to the ballot counting controversy surrounding Florida state's miscounts of votes (at this point Florida's electoral votes were the deciding factor of the Presidency), the U.S. Supreme court got involved, and decided by a slim 5-4 majority to cancel the Florida re-recount, as it was not likely to meet the safe harbor deadline requirements.
"I demand a recount!" was popularized as a display of indignant resistance thereafter, as many people (both state officials and regular citizens) criticized the Supreme Court's decision, requesting that for a recount not to be done would be bad form at best, and critically unconstitutional at worst.

Memes are easily shareable objects which are equal parts creative and derivative, commonly created and shared on the Internet. A meme can be expressed using just about any media, but most commonly via images, GIFs, or video clips.
"Dawg did you see those memes about COVID-19 today? It's much wow, so amaze!"
"I just made this meme today in response to all the political crap going on. You should totally check it out."
"If you Google for meme generators you will find a lot of options to create or remix the meme of your choice."

1. journalism so biased, fallacious. filthy and full of shit that it makes mainstream journalism appear accurate and objective by comparison.
2. news so heavily biased and lacking in journalistic integrity that it actually makes yellow journalism seem white as snow.
3. News sources so absurdly base in their methods and so utterly lacking in basic standards of quality, accuracy, and objectivity that they somehow manage to make Fox news actually seem "fair and balanced" by comparison!
It may be true that modern journalism has become a hopeless mess of yellow journalism. But if you want to see a real cesspool, check out some of the alternative news sources. The Blaze, Prison Planet, Natural News, Mother Jones- these news outlets have gone farm beyond the territory of yellow journalism into what can only be called 'brown journalism'.
