This meme is likely disingenuous. At the very least it is confused.

At the end of the Witcher 3, Ciri becomes a Witcher (the profession, a person who hunts monsters). The complaint is that she is a Witcher (a mutant, a person who has been mutated by monster dna), which doesn’t make much sense because she already has better-than-witcher magic powers, and is already able to drink Witcher potions (which she mentions at the end of Witcher 3, while not a mutant).

One of the possible endings is her doing that.

Another is her dying and Gerald seeking revenge for her death.

Another is her taking the mantle as Empress of Nilfgaard.

Indeed. Not sure what that has to do with this post though, which is clearly pointing to the witcheress ending (her profession) as evidence for her becoming a Witcher (a mutant).

Well given she's not dead or crowned but is the title character in W4 we can safely assume which ending of W3 is canon.
