The **"Freedom"** meme has multiple origins, but one of the most well-known comes from **Mel Gibson’s** portrayal of **William Wallace** in *Braveheart* (1995). In the film’s climax, Wallace yells **"Freedom!"** before his execution, making it an iconic cinematic moment. The meme is often used to represent **rebellion, independence, or exaggerated defiance**, sometimes humorously. It has been widely **edited, remixed, and repurposed** across **Reddit, Twitter, and meme culture**, appearing in discussions about personal freedom, escaping obligations, or resisting authority. Other variations use "freedom" sarcastically to critique hypocrisy in politics or society, making it a **versatile and enduring meme**.
