The Westboro Baptist Church meme stems from photographs of the Topeka-based group's highly controversial and inflammatory public protests. While the original signs featured hateful rhetoric on neon backgrounds, the internet quickly turned these images into an 'exploitable' template. Users began photoshopping the signs to display absurd, mundane, or ironic complaints, such as 'God Hates Comic Sans' or 'God Hates Pineapple on Pizza.' This trend effectively subverts the original extremist messages, repurposing the visual style of the protest for satire and social commentary on a wide variety of trivial topics.
