"Cuck" is worse than that: it entered the discourse via Steve Bannon's neo-nazi propaganda movement and he got from The Camp of the Saints, a French white supremacist novel that used it to refer to anyone who didn't want to exterminate refugees.
The full word is "Cuckold", which refers to a man whose wife is cheating on him. The word goes back to at least the middle ages. Supposedly cuckolds were supposed to grow horns for some obscure reason.
Based and cuck both pack a punch and have a non mainstream sound, even though they've kinda become mainstream, so they get used by extremists all around. I think horseshoe theory might be true for language because the middle and moderate people can just express their beliefs with common language, but more obscure positions inevitably see their adversaries and some terms they like in them. Realpolitik I think I've seen used by chan heads too, and red pill maybe started more leftist until chuds took it over. Honestly -pill language is ubiquitous to extremists, because we all swallowed something the mainstream didn't want to show us.
I mean I see it a lot in my friendgroup, along with stuff like Chad. Like this is a group where basically nobody is cishet and also I'm in it so definitely a 0 bigot space.

it's the incel/manosphere thing about being so unmanly that your (obviously female) spouse sleeps with others and you allow it.

Is that what Horns was about?
:what-the-hell: is it not just a shortening of cuckold?

Irony. Based, redpilled, all that crap is ironic mockery of the alt-right.

We can recuperate it and probably should. Worked for Nordic Gamer.
this is what based means
Based is a chud word, there's just a weird overlap between former 4chan current hexbear posters

Im not sure what there is to be defensive about 4chan of all places. Even channers will tell you the place is a rotten cesspool.
Based isn't from 4chan really, I know the term from Lil b
Before cth existed, it was a site where you could openly wish death on the worst people on the planet and not get banned for it
based on what?
