      Nordic Gamer Face was literally recuperated from a right-wing meme, of course it has that subtext

      I've always felt that :yes-chad: was modelled on pewdiepie. I have no way of confirming this, but it's still off-putting to me for that reason.

      can someone please make a version of :yes-chad: with a shaven face and a really weak chin?

        I saw that like 3 years ago, joke is the tradwife leaves him because he's ugly.

        It's not funny if he has a weak chin because then you're mocking people for how they look, which sucks. :yes-chad: is funny because you're mocking their self image.

      :yes-chad: is good because implying that the fash haircut beard aryan is some kind of ideal is really funny. You use :yes-chad: to mock people who think they are :yes-chad:

    Agreed, it should be :gigachad: every time and always in black and white

        I was more talking about how Ernest Khalimov is the gigachad because he refuses all interviews and does not know what a podcast is, and the strong jawline and muscles are just a convenient visual shorthand

    Dubbing yourself a hot handsome strong man online because you like your own opinion is the biggest fucking nerd shit. Like literally, it's like a something a nerd character in a children's sitcom from 2002 would do

    He's right.

    Also associating correctness with attractiveness is incorrect and harmful

    It's always bothered me that a literal chud meme spread like that. Virgin vs Chad is whatever, Gigachad is fine, but the stupid Yes meme was literally made by some trad loser, why the fuck does anyone use it? Especially people who are nominal leftists.

      Every meme we can reclaim from the right is a meme they can't use to dogwhistle. A dogwhistle only works if it is uncommon enough, not part of broader culture. So I think it is part of our duty to take every redeemable part of their online culture and make it our own. Additional points for spiting them.

        This. Everything we take away from them, or disarm, is worth the effort. It takes the right 100 efforts for one actual meme content they produce. It is good and proper to snatch that away from them. They deserve nothing.

        They can keep that 'fren' shit. Babytalk bullshit and they are welcome to it.

        I understand that logic but I disagree. Letting a fashy meme spread just normalizes the underlying ideology. The fact that everyone is unironically posting a Nazi's Aryan caricature to say their point is good sucks ass. Yeah the right can't use it to dog whistle but they don't need to dog whistle when everyone is now already associating that image with what they wanted people to associate it with.

    I hate that stupid Hitler Youth fade blended with the Viking LARPer beard, myself. Whenever I see it in public or on a screen somewhere, it never stops looking ridiculous to me. It's like the hair equivalent of cargo shorts, a trenchcoat, an anime print tee, and a fedora. It's a bunch of clumsy chud virtue signaling colliding together where it's worse than the sum of its parts. :nyet:

      A long beard with short sides does not work. You have to trim or fade the beard into it or something, you can't go from a number 1 buzzed sides to thick beard instantly.

      Undercuts are cool as long as there's some length on the top. Getting an undercut and then leaving/cutting the top very short defeats the purpose, it's called an undercut for a reason. The shaved part has to be under something.

      Just tips from someone who used to cut my friends hair and my own.

    Sorry, sorry...

    Were some of you using this meme in unironic contexts? Because the right way to use it is to post some hot take like "Actually it's good when Dutchmen are made in to clothes hampers" and then when someone takes the bait you post YesChad because implying that obviously all hot attractive white men agree with the completely deranged thing you just said is really funny.
