    I’m a grown-ass, nearly 40 year-old family man, and I fucking know what “uwu” is. These idiots think they’re “exposing the conspiracy”, when in reality anyone who has spent more than 4 seconds researching any meme would immediately recognize it.

      It wasn’t even “uwu” meme

      It was the “OwO what’s this?” Meme. Which makes it even weirder/funnier/messed up

          One is a generic emoticon, while “OwO what’s this?” is an (in)famous meme from the furry fandom

        Same difference. It’s used interchangeably.

          eh, not really.

          one is more a “uwu sowwy” the other is surprised/shocked/curious expression

        I still don’t understand, but I learned one thing, when a meme seems to do not have a meaning, it’s fascists crap.

        Those guys always miss humor totally.

      It’s this face. Like :) is a smile and xD is supposed to be somebody laughing so hard their eyes have squinted shut.

      owo is the same face, but the eyes are open.

      Edit: I have misread. You do understand it lmao
