Even if we ignore the ethics and quality of it, which many people are understandably unwilling to do, part of the problem with it is that it can crowd out everything else. It takes so little effort that where it is allowed, there is always a real chance of it becoming virtually the only thing posted
A general rule against spamming should suffice to deal with that.
Is it still spam if it's posted by different people?
That would depend on the wording of the general rule, which would depend on what exactly it's trying to accomplish.
Presumably ensuring that other types of content don't get crowded out. I'm not sure how a general anti-spam rule would manage that. The solution I've seen elsewhere is to restrict certain types of content (like meme posts) to specific days of the week
