Yo, I haven’t used weekendgunnit since it got b& by Reddit but thought this would be the best place to ask this
Recently I saw someone online REEing about the youtuber Wendigoon because he was supposedly the one who “created the Boogaloo Boys movement” and they posted this Reddit screenshot as proof :

As far as I’m aware, the whole “boogaloo” term and meme never came from some Che Guevara code word but rather Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo, as in Civil war 2: electric boogaloo and was popularized by bestgunnit Not sure about the Hawaiian shirts thing but whatever
Basically what I’m trying to ask, is this guy (wendigoon) just talking out of his ass or was he really the creator of the whole meme and I’m just a retarded newfag
Sorry if this is off topic or whatever but like I said it’s kinda the best place to ask
Boogaloo was never really part of OG WG. Some wannabes always tried to make it a thing on WG but they usually started their own smaller subreddits. OG WG was always about shitposting and never about a movement.
Yeah, I remember it as more shitposts and jokes about the boogaloo and more if some people were trying to start something they'd get called a fed and call it a glow post. As to the origins it's 1776 part 2: Electric Boogaloo, a reference to Breakin 2: Electric Boogaloo and also Alex Jones rant about 1776 2 if things get bad enough.
At least that's how this addled mind remembers it, or maybe it's lead bb pellet I chewed on as a kid clouding my memory, or the mercury from a broken thermometer I held and played with confusing me. Good times.
From what I remember, it was always about talkin shit and being as goofy as humanly possible, while making sure responsibility was for pussies. None of the actual, let's be besties and wear matching shirts so fed bois can take pretty pictures of us bullshit.
I definitely heard it on WG waaay before hearing it spread to FB or anywhere else. WG had already evolved the name/words so as to stay under radar (lol) and not be lumped in with dick riders.
Basically any slight change, rhyme or words with same first letters took its place. When Boog Boys became a thing everyone talked shit about them mercilessly.
Hope this helped happy booger mining and "1776 will commence again if..." you know the rest.
Oh, and make frogs straight again. And protect ur puppers.
