The 'How Many Upvotes For Our Boys In Blue?' meme is a satirical parody of 'like-farming' social media posts that typically feature soldiers or police officers. Instead of real-life heroes, this meme format features fictional characters who happen to be the color blue, such as Mega Man, Sonic the Hedgehog, or the Cookie Monster. Originating as a way to mock the earnest and often manipulative tone of Facebook engagement bait, it has evolved into a versatile template for ironic humor. Users post these images to subvert expectations, turning a serious plea for respect into a humorous tribute to pop culture icons and fictional characters.
