The Sun Tzu meme centers on the ancient Chinese general and philosopher credited with writing 'The Art of War.' While his actual strategic insights are legendary, the internet transformed his image into a vehicle for 'fake wisdom' and ironic advice. These memes typically pair a traditional portrait of Sun Tzu with a quote he definitely never said, often beginning with 'Sun Tzu said that...' or simply 'The Art of War.' This format gained massive popularity in gaming communities—most notably popularized by YouTuber Technoblade—and on social media platforms like Reddit and Twitter, where users use his name to lend a hilarious sense of authority to absurd tactical blunders or mundane life hacks.
