About
Le American Bear, also known as Spurdo Burger, is a character based of Spurdo Spärde wearing a pair of sunglasses and a t-shirt with the colors of the United States flag. Its depiction in images is often associated with the negative stereotypes of American citizens, most notably obesity and gun violence.
Origin
According to a Finish wiki site Meemi.info[1], Le American Bear first originated on a Finish imageboard’s Ylilauta /int/ board. Eventually, on January 5th, 2012, the earliest known archived image surfaced on 4chan’s /jp/ (otaku culture) board[2], depicting the American Bear as a tourist.
