The 'Binod' meme originated in July 2020 after the Indian YouTube channel Slayy Point released a video titled 'Why Indian Comments Section is Garbage'. In the video, creators Gautami and Abhyudaya highlighted a user named Binod Tharu who would simply comment his own name, 'Binod', under various videos for no apparent reason. The sheer randomness of the act turned the name into an overnight sensation, with people spamming 'Binod' on everything from live corporate streams to celebrity social media posts. It stands as a landmark moment in Indian internet culture, representing the power of niche commentary to transform into a global shitposting phenomenon.
