How the retards at 4chan say "best".
There's no more to it than that, the other definitions you see are how the term got bastardized over the years. The reason you see "based" in online conversations all of the time now is because many started using it immediately after the Fappening.

How the retards on 4chan say "the best".
This definition has been bastardized over the last several years and now people think that some rapper coined the term...well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news but "based" is just an intentionally mispronunciation of "best".

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?
