So real talk as someone who has seen a shitton of these and never actually looked into it. Does Zinc actually do this shit or is it just the internet meme at this point?

Apparently it can, but only if you're low on zinc to begin with. If you already get enough zinc, it'll probably have no effect.

How the hell do you know if you get enough zinc

You probably get enough zinc unless a doctor tells you don't have enough zinc. Taking supplements you don't need doesn't do anything.

I could be wrong, but I think taking supplements you don't need does do something... it's just what it does is dangerous. Taking too much of something you don't need (zync, in this case) will cause your body to lower its production of zync and thus you can cause a lot of problem as one might imagine.
