AboutWhat does the meme depict?

The Scroll of Truth meme features a comic strip where an explorer, characterized as an archeologist, discovers a scroll labeled 'Scroll of Truth'. This scroll reveals inconvenient or unwelcome truths. Reacting negatively to these truths, the explorer ultimately throws the scroll away in frustration, complete with an exaggerated shout of 'nyehhh'.

OriginWho did it first?

The Scroll of Truth meme originated from a webcomic called "Truth", created by Tate Parker and shared on Tumblr on February 2, 2017. This comic featured an archeologist who uncovers a scroll declaring 'no one reads your rants on your Facebook page,' leading him to angrily discard it. You can view the original post on Tumblr here. Shortly afterward, the comic reached wider audiences and became a template for meme creators, particularly following its adaptation into a blank meme template by a 4chan user on March 26, which spurred further variations.^[1]
