About

Picardía, also known as Strawman Ball, Memeball or Thumbs Up Emoji Man, is a series of image macros featuring a 3D illustration of a smiley face making a thumbs-up gesture. While initially popularized on the Argentinian website Taringa, customized versions of the character mocking a variety of political ideologies began circulating on 4chan in August 2016.

Origin

Picardía was originally taken from EmotiGuy,[1] an app for designing Emojis. In 2014, Picardía began circulating on Taringa, where it was open captioned various Spanish language in-jokes (shown below).[2] The character was subsequently nicknamed Picardía ("mischievous" in Spanish) on the internet humor site.[3]

On December 8th, 2015, an English language version of the image macro was posted in a thread on 4chan's /int/ (international) board (shown below).[4]

In August 2016, variations of the image using the yellow and black colors from the Swedish AnarkoKapitalistisk Front flag began circulating on Reddit[5] and 4chan,[6] featuring captions mocking anarcho-capitalism (shown below).


When all the land is owned and the only way to get kicked off someone's property is to get thrown in the ocean When you shoot your neighbor's escaped child sex slaves for starving on your lawn When you are all out of ammo so you buy your neighbor's and then kill him and take your money back.

Shortly after, additional variations of the smiley face began appearing on 4chan, with each customized to mock stereotypes associated with other political ideologies (shown below). [7]


Agorism Anarcho-Capitalism Anarcho-Primitivism Anarcho-Transhumanism Anarcho-Communism Mutualism Anarcho-Egoism Anarcho-Individualism Anarcho-Feminism Queer Anarchism Anarcho-Pacifism United States Democratic Party

On November 20th, a thread referring to the images as "Strawman Ball" was posted on 4chan's /pol/ board,[8] where many users replied with variations of the image macro (shown below). The name is based off the straw man informal fallacy, in which a misrepresented version of an argument is refuted in a debate. The following day, a similar thread was posted on /pol/.[7]
