Smuggie

A smug Wojak with glasses below a wall of text. It reads "Ir's literally just a statement of fact. There's no hidden meaning. Anyone that feels discomfort from saying this just shows their deep seated [sic] hatred of this race."

“Smuggie” is a variety of internet meme characters as well as a word used as an insult. Smuggies are traditionally crudely-drawn depictions of people expressing views meant to mock progressive politics from a position of contempt. People depicted as Smuggies are presented as content and their viewpoints, which contrast the often hateful views of 4Chan users who shared the memes. Smuggie memes are less common today, but the term is still sometimes used to insult people with progressive political views.
