The Race Purity Test meme, often a variation of the Rice Purity Test or a parody of AncestryDNA and 23andMe results, highlights the humor found in internet users obsessing over their heritage. It gained traction as people began posting exaggerated or completely fabricated DNA results to shock others or subvert expectations within online communities. Usually featuring a screenshot of a genetic pie chart or a numerical score, the meme is used to mock people who take their ancestry too seriously or to celebrate a tiny percentage of an unexpected background for comedic effect. It has evolved into a versatile template for highlighting identity contradictions or making satirical commentary on cultural gatekeeping.
