The **"Chud"** meme originated as an insult on online forums, particularly in leftist and progressive internet spaces, to mock **right-wing, reactionary, or out-of-touch individuals**. The term comes from the 1984 horror film *C.H.U.D.* (**Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dwellers**), but its internet usage began in the late **2010s**. It became widespread on **Twitter, Reddit, and political meme communities**, often depicting **"chuds"** as angry, red-faced caricatures with exaggerated features, similar to the **"GigaChad" vs. "Soyjak" dichotomy**. Over time, "chud" evolved into a general term for **ignorant or stubborn people**, often used sarcastically in political and cultural debates.
