The original emote was added to Twitch's pool of global emotes in 2012 and was later removed in January 2021, after Gutierrez expressed support for the January 6 United States Capitol attack.

Gentle reminder that Twitch is a breeding ground for these bozos.

It would make a good design for a slammer.

It'a also masculinist shit, so.

A lot of slang are either african american vernacular english or from incel/4chan culture in origin but over time they become divorced from their origins. If you were to ask a kid about "sigma" they'd likely have no idea that it came from incel circles. To the typical kid these terms are 'how all my friends talk' and the origins aren't a consideration.

It's still directly referencing the stupid obsession over testosterone and how the lack of it explains why men are not "male" enough to them. That's literally what the soy part is.

The word is shit, and so is its implication.
