Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: 'meme' (online, shared media) combined with 'culture' (shared practices and attitudes) yields the collective practices and trends around memes. This noun+noun composition follows a common cross-linguistic pattern, so a B1 learner who knows both constituent words will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Meme culture comes from the idea of a meme — a small idea, joke, or picture that spreads from person to person like a tune or a fashion. On the internet these ideas move fast and people copy and change them, so meme culture means 'the shared habits and trends of making and sharing these memes online'.
