The 'Become Ungovernable' meme emerged as a humorous subversion of political slogans, specifically those associated with anarchist or anti-authoritarian sentiments. It typically features an animal or person engaging in a trivial or harmless act of defiance, such as standing on a sign that says 'Do Not Step' or ignoring a specific instruction. The meme gained massive popularity on platforms like Twitter and Reddit around 2021, often paired with low-resolution photos of pets acting out. It serves as a lighthearted way to celebrate small-scale rebellion against minor inconveniences or arbitrary rules in everyday life.
