Based

The modern use of based, as in how people may refer to themselves online in a political context, originates from African American slang in the 2000s. After it became a meme in 2010, the left started to refer to themselves as Based King or Based Queen online. Today the word is even used by the right, although ironically.

You forgot to put your pronouns. How will anyone know whether to call you based king, based queen, or based monarch?

Based

Slang: Agreement with a regressive opinion to try to fit in with a crowd. Could be read as short for 'Based on conformity'. The polar opposite of punk.

May have had a different slang definition originally, but this has what it has become through online usage.

Punk:

Living your life your own way giving no fucks what people think = That's punk.

"Based":
Moron 1: ""Hitler had the right idea""

Moron 2: "That's based, bro."

Based

Short for based in reality or based in science. Often hijacked and used incorrectly by lefties just like the slang term woke was.

I just found this unbiased YouTube channel called Breaking Points. Totally based.
