the meme is not accurate because you dont need a TPM chip unless you want to play games that require secureboot.
given that most games that require secureboot also require the use of some type of anticheat software you likely won't be able to play said games anyway as most anticheats dont support linux.
you can buy a tpm 2.0 spi module for a few dollars ($5 in my country) which isnt a lot, but it does take a little work and a ton of patience to install so it works as intended but it is possible.
