The internet is a magical place full of laughs, fun facts, and heartwarming pictures. But it’s also home to some of the darkest humor on the planet. The internet is a cesspool of dark humor and memes. If you spend time online, you’ve probably come across one or more of them without even realizing it. They’re almost always lurking somewhere in your feed – whether as a subtle post or an image that pops up every once in a while. However, they are usually more prevalent in darker niche social media sites and hidden meme communities like 4chan and Reddit. As a result, most people don’t see them unless they specifically go looking for them. But the truth is there are some pretty dark memes out there right now that will make most people cringe if they see them...
Let’s start with the basics
If you’re new to the dark side, let’s start with a little terminology. Dark humor is humor that is often morbid, cynical, or pessimistic. Sometimes it’s even intended to be offensive. This is the type of humor that’s usually the primary focus of Reddit subreddits like /r/dankmemes and /r/4chan. Dark memes are usually just images paired with a short phrase or caption. Dark meme culture is huge online. Many people think it’s just a bunch of weirdos obsessed with the darker side of internet culture. But actually, a lot of people love it. Some people just prefer these memes over the more down-to-earth ones.
