For what I seem to understand from the usual confusion around POV memes is that it's being used on tiktok to describe a viewpoint or an opinion. In French a point de vue is a viewpoint and is used as a way to describe an opinion.

For example, POV : this thing is stupid.

In that case it's an opinion and it's confusing a lot of people because they don't see this as the usual POV term used to describe video game cameras or porn shoot in first person with fake siblings.

I'm not saying it's wrong. I'm saying some people really confuse the meaning of POV to be literally only a first person view of something like in video games and porn. It's not used the same way if you search POV on pornhub than you would see being used on social media.

So they see a post like I described and comment things like "I don't think you know what POV means"
