I have noticed an explosion of people using the slang "based" in the last month or two with almost infinite usages.
Can anyone explain to me its proper usage, meaning and why the hell every lemming jumps off the same cliff? Is it simply cuz you saw someone else use the term so now you have to be cool too?
I read that it's some leftish maybe woman on Twitter used it to mean biased and now it's a way to say "racist in a good way" by certain internet niches, because you're praising their bias while also making fun of some black girl on online
I liked the word and thought it was like the based in "debased." As in opposite of debased. Why don't people say ruthful too, same idea. Like opposite of merciless.
