Why do we need to argue which is better? In some places, beautification isn't really practical, but you can still stick these around. They don't look hard to install or uninstall, unlike trees.
I would hate to see a tree actually replaced by one these. But no one but the meme is saying that is the plan.
I think we have reached the limit for how much we should "improve" and replace nature, if there's no room for trees we should make room instead of accomodating yet another industrial solution to a problem created by industry in the first place.

We're going in the wrong direction.
