They were indeed refugees when they fled to Egypt to avoid Herod’s slaughter.

Correct. They were the first persecuted Christians fleeing for their lives.

Yes, but the memes that are going around depict the Nativity scene not the flight to Egypt.

Sorry, you’re wrong. They were not Christian they were Jews. Christianity did not exist until Jesus started teaching some 30 years later.
