AboutWhat does the meme depict?

The 'Soyjaks vs. Chads' meme format involves a comic-style comparison between two groups represented by Soyjaks and Chads. Typically, the meme shows Soyjaks, often portrayed as overly emotional or disappointed characters, reacting negatively to various topics. In contrast, the Chads, depicted as confident and dismissive, either accept the shortcomings of the subject discussed or mock the Soyjaks's concerns. This format is distinct in highlighting the stark contrast in attitudes and reactions between the two groups in a straightforward comic strip layout.
