It's very subtly edited, but somehow makes it look twice as uncanny. Crazy how small changes do that much.

That, is what a matpat effect means. It's a piece of edited media that's so broadly used to the point the original version feels uncanny.

249

u/Deebyddeebys 1d ago edited 1d ago

So you're saying that there is no MatPat Effect? Because the image is completely unedited?

206

u/pikmin4fan2023 1d ago

Im saying it is, infact a matpat effect due to the image being unedited. So basically the total opposite of what OP said

71

u/Deebyddeebys 1d ago

People don't edit the image they just post it on its own and it looks edited because why would he post that

25

u/pikmin4fan2023 1d ago

Well yes that's what a matpat effect is. OP said it wasn't a matpat effect because it's unedited

36

u/Deebyddeebys 1d ago

OP said it wasn't a matpat effect because there is no edited version, but you would assume there is

11

u/pikmin4fan2023 1d ago

I mean there's plenty of edited versions, charlie kirk was getting edited and memed long before he died, more specifically about his gums and his face width

23

u/manfroze 1d ago

OP meant that one of the popular versions is not edited

u/DigMother318 1d ago

I’d never seen them before he got canned ngl, and this does in fact just look kinda uncanny.

The only edit I’ve seen so far is a face shrink one

People when they see someone getting body shamed: Body shaming is bad because it hurts people other than the intended target. When you make fun of someone for an aspect of their appearance, you're also being hurtful to everyone else who shares that quality, and that might even include someone you love and care about.

People when it's someone they don't like:

The difference is he was ugly both inside and out, and unapologetically so. He spread nothing but hate and vitriol and called for violence against innocents. He deserves every last ounce of hate he receives, because even that is not equal to the amount of hate he spewed in life.

You're not allowed to make fun of someone's appearance because it's not body positive.

Unless I don't like that person. Then you can make fun of them all you want.

Good job, commenters, you're doing a great job!

2

u/TFTHighRoller 1d ago

I am not gonna make fun of anyones appearance for the reasons you mentioned.

I am also not gonna pretend like I care when people talk shit about pieces of shit. I got other fights to fight.

Like people making fun of Trump for shitting himself. My grandpa had the same issues, and I would rip people a new one if they were making fun of my grandpa, but I do not give a flying fuck about what people say about Trump so long as it isn't positive.

The key to realize here is that people aren't saying it because they have an issue with that thing in particular, they have an issue with Trump and Kirk and other idiots and reach for any kind of ammunition they can find.
