Yup. Delete the messages and redirect the user. If they get pissy they aren't a fit for the community.
Provided the community has clear rules on where to post gifs/memes redirecting the user is fine. Of course it should be a gentle reminder and not feel as if the user is getting berated.
If they still get pissy after that, it's more on the user. A reminder to follow the rules is not a personal attack.
I agree completely.
