Wouldn't the internet suck for people who can't read or speak English?

This just occurred to me the other day. Seeing as how the majority of the people on the internet communicate in English, and almost all of the hilarious GIFs, memes, images, and weird lingo like "Thank you based God/Nomura/whatever name, are pretty much in English or are based on media that's in English, I can't help but wonder how boring and bland the internet might be for people who can't understand all of it. Does the non-english community of the internet have their own funny memes and things similar to us? I'm curious.

Dude, there is a whole world out there. Really. You don't know a thing about the rest of the world, none of us do. The internet is as crazy and expansive in other languages as it is in english.

インターネットは日本語を読んだり、話すことができない人々のために吸うと思いませんか?名誉と恥はそれの一部でもありますか?
