I'm still unsure what it even means. Based in what? Reality, fantasy? It's clearly a US thing and often seems associated with the more right wing

It's fucking stupid ... There's a story about.it originating with an obscure ass rapper a few years back but I don't buy that... It's really from reddit, absolutely right wing, and completely stupid as fuck.

It absolutely was repopularised by Lil B, I was there for it. My understanding at the time was that it was a reclamation of the word from an original slang meaning of being strung out on crack. Lil B was celebrated ironically by the 4channers that later propagated the right wing appropriation of the term. I always interpreted that to refer to being strung out on 'the red pill' i.e. being unapologetically fascist.

Bullshit on your first part for sure...

This is also related to the equally stupid explanation of the origin of people saying "cap"

People made up these explanations after the fact without a doubt

[–] gila 1 points 1 year ago

I don't know anything about the origin of the new use of 'cap'. No one was saying 'based' in proto-internet culture before Lil B's music videos around 2010-2011. This guy blew up quick and he used the word in his nickname. It was his version of BRRRR for Gucci, FLOCKA, etc. That's just a fact.

At least base your distaste on reality. The term was born on 4chan back when it had a mostly leftist penchant (around the time the OWS movement was going off). It has nothing to do with "right wing", that's just you putting political polarization on everything.

You're a moron who's been "dumbass pilled" by the dumbasses
