A term originally used as a self-description for anime fans from the literal hood. Quickly appropriated by, typically right-leaning, terminally online, 4chan-adjacent anime fans due to anime youtuber Chibi Reviews being doxxed and some people not sharing sympathy for his situation causing the terminally online individuals to believe the same "hood" individuals who are somehow not intelligent enough to consume anime critically are also simultaneously responsible for hacking into Chibi's credentials.
Prior to the pandemic boom anime was seen in a negative light; associated with cringe comps and bullying. Post-pandemic, however, their hobbies of consuming loli material, waifu culture, and Japan xenocentrisim was suddenly exposed by younger and/or less online demographics. The online fans redirected all their hate to the, arguably, largest vocal demographic against their people, black teens who exclusively watch shonen, previously referred to as shonentards in the 2000s. Shonentards are essentially 'hood weebs' just without the racially charged implication.

Get the Shady weeb mug.A weeb is an individual who values and has a strong like towards Japanese culture (primarily consisting of anime and manga). They shouldn't be confused with Weeaboos who have an obsession and typically have no shame...). Weebs are just ordinary people who like Japan and can appreciate its content and may have merch from their favorite shows.
P1; I'm a weeb.
P2; Eww bro you obsess over fictional anime characters and want to be Japanese? Using "kawaii" or "baka"?
P1; No, that's a weeaboo. I just like and appreciate anime/manga.
