The Onision meme stems from the erratic and highly dramatic YouTube videos of Gregory Jackson, known online as Onision. Often featuring intense emotional outbursts, exaggerated crying, and performative meltdowns, these clips became fertile ground for internet parody. Most notably, his 'I am a good person' and 'Why did you do this' rants were turned into templates to mock excessive drama or fake outrage. The meme is typically used to represent someone reacting disproportionately to a situation or someone playing the victim in a transparently manipulative way. Over the years, these images have become a staple in commentary community circles to signify over-the-top internet controversy.
