Henchman Jokes
On May 18th, 2024, X[10] user @jorgertg98 quoted a viral tweet[9] about Thedvrko (reading "i think he has captured the essence of what it means to be human") adding, "I often see a lot of comic readers say things like 'who'd join Joker's/Riddler's… gang?' This guy. This guy would, he was born to paint his face with his boss' colors, he's a born henchman." The quote received over 93,000 likes in four days (shown below). The statement is similar to the precursor Goonposting trend about "goons," as in, "henchmen" in Batman comic books.
Others built on the idea soon after, like X[11] user @NobleQAli on May 21st, 2024, who posted a video of Thedvrko and another video of Stas Baretsky, captioned, "Need a movie about these two henchmen whose bosses died in a tragic plane crash, and are road tripping together to the funeral," earning over 40,000 likes in a day (shown below).
