Meme that referenced a movie that would typically be posted as [Enter Title Here]: Electric Boogaloo. Eventually on /k/ (4chan's weapons board) it evolved into Civil War 2: Electric Boogaloo. It was ironic at first, but once the far-right really sunk its teeth into 4chan (esp after the creation of /pol/ - 4chan's politics board), it gradually became completely unironic and specifically about white nationalism. The rise of the Rhodesia meme happened around the same time too. Oh, and they've co-opted aloha shirts as well, but they can take muh colorful button-ups from my cold dead hands.

At this point, I'm starting to think every innocuous sounding meme or catchphrase is some cryptic, fascist message.
