Reactionary

The Reactionary Meme is a cartoon image series where a character is brainwashed or given ideas by an outside party.
The first image was developed by Revleft.com’s Anti-Fascist group for their R9K Revolutionary Front. It featured a racist disguised as Ron Paul giving racist propaganda to a reactionary who claims to not be politically brainwashed. Although only one image was produced by Revleft it soon left Revleft’s closed Anti-Fascism group and emerged onto 4chan’s /pol/ on July, 6, 2015. Overtime anti-feminist versions were created by outside parties and soon more politically driven versions were created. All versions involve an outside party giving propaganda to a reactionary who spouts out dogmatic ideas, usually for the purpose of ironic humor. The meme’s purpose is to also make fun of the reactionary’s ideas and their source.
