About

The Eternal Anglo or Angloposting refers to a series of memes, exploitable images and conspiracy theories critical of Britain, and specifically English people, which often reference various historical controversies involving Britain and its alleged transgressions against other nations, primarily Germans.

The image of British politician and British Union of Fascists leader Sir Oswald Ernald Mosley is closely associated with the meme.

Gaining prominence on /int/ board of 4chan in 2015, Angloposting became a popular practice on /int/, /his/, /pol/ and other 4chan board in the following years.

Origin

Names to indicate the "Eternal Anglo" have been historically used in anti-British propaganda as far back as the 13th century. The most famous one being "The Perfidious Alboin" which dates to 19th century France, in its original "La perfide Albion".

While term "anglo" has been used on 4chan to reference people of British origin prior, the term "Eternal Anglo" was coined by an anonymous /int/ user on October 10th, 2013 (post shown below).^[1] The term did not see significant spread until July 8th, 2015, being used by /int/ users only seven more times prior to that time.^[2]

On July 8th, 2015, an anonymous /int/ user made a post reading "When will the Aryan nations see through the lies of the Eternal Anglo?" (shown below, left).^[3] In the following weeks, the expression and posts accusing "anglos" of underhand behavior gained significant spread on /int/ (example shown below, right).^[4][5] The name "Eternal Anglo" is a reference to the 1940 German Nazi antisemitic propaganda film "Eternal Jew."

Spread

On August 11th, 2015, an anonymous /int/ user posted an image of British politician Sir Oswald Ernald Mosley who was the leader of the British Union of Fascists between 1932 and 1940 as an example of the Eternal Anglo (post shown below, left; post image no longer available).^[6] Additionally, the post contained a description of the Eternal Anglo which later gained popularity as a copypasta (example shown below, right).^[7]

Daily reminder Aryan man:
This is what the average ANGLO looks like.
Look at his nose
Look at his dark hair
See his beady Anglo eyes

Angloposting on /int/, /his/ and other boards often involves references various historical controversies involving the actions of British politicians and military, specifically the bombing of Dresden which took place during World War II in February 1945 and resulted into extensive civilian casualties among the German population (example posts shown below, left and right).^[8]

Dresden

The bombing of Dresden generated a copypasta of his own (shown below, with video).

Beady eyes, ANGLO lies
Muffled Aryan women's cries
Aryan children, big and small
Bomber Harris kills them all
Left, right, right, left
ANGLO sows the seeds of death
Not a stone is left to stand
When ANGLO flies across the land
After starting World War One
The ANGLO's work was still not done
So joining with the Pole and Jew
He made a new one: World War Two
To sate his thirst for Aryan blood
That he wanted, that he got
Now Dresden is devoid of cheer
Hans have fear; the ANGLO is here

Because of this, the "anglos" are often depicted as in a permanent black and white filter, sporting distinctive small and beady eyes, and as pseudo-vampires who have an unquenchable thirst for "Aryan blood" (example shown below)

What fueled the popularity of the meme on /pol/ was the involvement of the Middle Eastern British colony of Mandatory Palestine, which partly developed into the current nation of Israel.

Anglo-Portuguese Alliance

Additionally, multiple Angloposting posts and memes reference Anglo-Portuguese Alliance (examples shown below, left and right).^[9][10]

With the further spread to /pol/ and other boards, the meme also saw inclusion of posts referencing multiple contemporary and historical British figures such as Winston Churchill and Sir Arthur "Bomber" Harris.

Native Britons

Among other versions, several phenotypes of British people are classified on 4chan based on which ancient people they resemble today. The most popular one is the idea of pure Native Britons still roaming around today and having a set of defining characteristics.

>British
>White

">british >white" is a troll greentext statement that got popular on the 4chan board /pol/ in 2019. The statement is often accompanied by images of British people or celebrities of caucasian ethnicity who have dark hair, skin and eyes, implying that the average British isn't white.
The meme was popularized by a dedicated Greek poster.

Use Outside of 4chan

In December 2017, prominent /leftypol/ user Bat'ko uploaded the "Anti-Anglo Gang Anthem" to YouTube (video no longer avaiable).^[11] The video received over 45,000 thousands of views and and 1,000 likes in two years. On 7 September, 2018, the YouTube pundit Sargon of Akkad referenced the meme on his secondary YouTube channel "The Thinkery" (video shown below, left).^[12] In July 2019, political commentator and Groypers leader Nicholas J. Fuentes used the meme in his podcast (extract shown below, right).^[13]
