Before June 2019, the meme was reposted a number of times on Reddit and Instagram,[3] sometimes being reused with minimal changes.[4][5] On June 14th, 2019, Redditor Mikzing posted a variation of the meme which "baited" the reader into thinking that a racial slur is going to be used, only to dispel this assumption in the second panel.[6]
