The Red meme, often synonymous with the 'Triggered' or 'Deep Fried' aesthetic, utilizes a heavy red color grade and glowing eyes to convey intense emotion, anger, or hyper-awareness. Originating from the 'Triggered' GIF era of the mid-2010s on platforms like Tumblr and Reddit, the style evolved into 'Deep Fried' memes where saturation and contrast are pushed to the limit. It is commonly used to satirize overreactions or to signal that someone has reached a state of 'maximum power' or extreme agitation. Today, it remains a staple of surreal humor and internet irony, often used to highlight the absurdity of a specific situation through visual distortion.
