I think there should be a term for the phenomenon when a term becomes popular and loses it's meaning from all the new people using it wrong.

Like how everything is a zero day now.

I think we should co-opt an existing word and use it wrongly so it loses it's meaning and becomes the word for the phenomenon you described.

Would "phenomenon" do?!

Bildungsmemen?

Leave German out of this!
