[Marsey history] Archaelogy reveals the exact moment Marsey came to the dramanaut community

Now that Marsey has gone viral, it is with a heavy heart that I look back on my role in creating this alt-right meme that strikes fear into the hearts of marginalized people in our society. Either that or I want to some parlay my role in this into getting attention from a few internet neurodivergents and I gotta do it soon before /r/drama gets nuked.

The first time she was mentioned by name was on 6/29/2018.

>Marsey the Cat is getting popular <3

Ed bb, you had no idea. :marseylove:

But with a bit more digging I found the imgur filename of the laughing marsey that started it all, aks7kvX.png.

Searching for that, we find the first time it was posted on reddit was actually on /r/internetdrama, a small, pathetic subreddit created by SRD as a kind of castrated imitation of /r/drama. On 5/22/2018 the fateful post was made. EDIT: Unddit reveals more important metareddit personalities were involved!

  • @KongdorTheDongHolder and SAC-Lawn_Gnome are having a slapfight.

  • Ed snoozeposts at SAC. Just saying "😴😴😴" was enough to break a lot of brains.

  • SAC's epic comeback: "Snooze posting? SMDH."

  • Ed deploys :marseylaugh: for the first time.

  • I say: "I gotta admit, this one is pretty adorbs. Just try not to use it more than 10 times/day." Because one of Ed's gimmicks was posting the same gifs constantly.

  • He replies with words of momentous consequence for the future: "STOP TRYING TO GIVE ME IDEAS!!!!"

In the remaining 8 days of May alone, Ed deployed :marseylaugh: no less than 46 times against, among others:

  • pitbull owners

  • users who got banned from various subreddits

  • a "KIA strag"

  • "newstrag alts"

  • "memerson mcmemestrag"

  • "r/aznidentity type chinky incels"

  • an "anime strag" "CA strag" who replied "Stop using that cat you goddarn r-slurred ape"

  • a "sexy Indian dudecel"

  • a "degenerate consumer of anime porn"

  • a "christcuck"

  • anti-semites

  • "MDEstrags"

  • Trump supporters

  • Glamour magazine

  • racists

  • Roseanne Barr

  • Sargon viewers

Within a few days he already had half the subreddit seething at him for posting Marsey so much. A neo-nazi hate symbol was born.
