The 'Orange Man Bad' meme is a satirical phrase used to mock critics of Donald Trump, often depicting them as unthinking 'NPCs' who repeat slogans without nuance. Originating in late 2016 and gaining massive traction on platforms like 4chan and Reddit during 2018, the term ridicules what critics describe as 'Trump Derangement Syndrome.' The meme typically features the grey Wojak NPC character, representing a person with no internal monologue who simply parrots the consensus of the media. Over time, it has evolved into a meta-commentary on the polarized state of modern political debate and the simplification of complex arguments into catchy, repetitive catchphrases.
