say what u want to say

You see, to understand the image, we need to get into some memetic history. The yellow character depicted is known as "Sneed" on the website 4chan. 4chan has various forum boards for different topics. Some users of their television board, /tv/, were unhappy that so many threads kept discussing the Simpsons show. In order to derail those threads and dissuade the creation of further Simpsons threads, some users began posting images of a store called "Sneed's Feed and Seed", discussing this image over and over again to stop any quality conversation on the threads. Eventually, posting an image of Sneed began to spread to other boards on 4chan as a sort of trolling, because many users did not understand the origin of the image or the meaning of "Sneed". As with many high level memes, this one is a combination of a few previous memes. The Sneed background remains, and Sneed's head has been superimposed on top of another meme, this one depicting a naked character from the popular series Dragon Ball Z doing a deep squat. The color of the DBZ's character's skin has been changed to yellow to match the Simpsons aesthetic. With the events surrounding George Floyd, the politics board of 4chan combined Sneed posting and the naked DBZ meme to create a meta joke, indicating that George Floyd had his breathing restricted by the buttocks of the Sneed character, alluding to the fact that George Floyd repeatedly said "I can't breathe" during his incident with the police on May 25, 2020. The meme depicted is commonly referred to on the site as "I Can't Sneed", and it serves to combine 4chan culture and meta memes with the disrespect of Floyd. BTW I'm trans.
