The 'Liberal Douche Garofalo' meme is a classic Advice Animal template featuring a photograph of actress and comedian Janeane Garofalo. Originating in the late 2000s, the meme is typically used to satirize individuals perceived as holding hypocritical or overly smug progressive viewpoints. The captions generally follow a two-part structure where the top text presents a virtuous political stance, and the bottom text points out a contradictory behavior or double standard. While the image itself captures Garofalo in a candid moment, it has become a staple of internet culture for calling out perceived 'social justice warrior' tropes and intellectual inconsistencies in political discourse.
