This meme originated from a real-life photograph taken in October 2017 by a photographer traveling with the presidential motorcade. It depicts Juli Briskman, a cyclist who was caught on camera raising her middle finger as Donald Trump's motorcade passed her in Sterling, Virginia. The image quickly became a viral sensation as a symbol of resistance and public dissent. In the world of internet memes, the template is used as a classic object labeling format where the cyclist represents the creator or a defiant entity, and the motorcade represents an incoming problem, an unpopular opinion, or an overwhelming force that the creator chooses to ignore or insult. Briskman's subsequent firing from her job and her later victory in a local election only added to the legendary status of the image, cementing it as a permanent fixture in political and social commentary meme culture.
