Slang dictionary
based
[beysd]

September 6, 2018
What does based mean?
Based is a slang term that originally meant to be addicted to crack cocaine (or acting like you were), but was reclaimed by rapper Lil B for being yourself and not caring what others think of you—to carry yourself with swagger.

Based has been appropriated by the alt-right online as a general term of praise, as if “un-woke.”

Based comes from the slang basehead, a term from the 1980s to describe people addicted to freebasing cocaine, a method which makes the drug smokable. The term basehead became synonymous with the crack epidemic that swept the United States at the time. Over time, calling someone based was a way of saying that they were a crack addict, or acting like one, especially in West Coast street slang.

In the way slang things go, people acting eccentric or abnormal were labelled based. At least that’s what seems to have happened with quirky West Coast rapper Brandon “Lil B” McCartney. In reaction to people calling him based, Lil B decided to redefine the term. In 2007, his group, The Pack, released their debut album, Based Boys. In a 2010 interview in Complex magazine, Lil B described his new definition of based: “Based means being yourself. Not being scared of what people think about you. Not being afraid to do what you wanna do.”

It’s not clear when Lil B started calling himself Based God, but by 2011 that nickname was firmly associated with him. Eventually, a cosmology of Based God (or BasedGod) emerged, referring to becoming a sort of higher power that Lil B could access, allowing him special abilities, such as the power to curse basketball player Kevin Durant.

The re-invented based, as a signal of power and swagger, was picked up by the alt-right/white nationalist community online in the 2010s. In 2014, during a controversy over female video-game reviewers known as Gamergate, conservative commentator Christina Hoff Sommers was referred to as Based Mom for pushing back against criticisms that video games and their culture are sexist. Since then, referring to alt-right or right-wing conservative figures as based has become a sign of approval in online social-media forums like the pro-Trump subreddit, r/The_Donald.

In 2016, Slate writer Ben Mathis-Lilley perhaps best summed up this strange turn of events with based, worth quoting at length:

“So what we have here, then, is a word that was created amid an addiction epidemic in urban communities being adopted by bigoted fans of a presidential candidate who was demonstrated unprecedented contempt for, and ignorance of, said communities.”

We must start a movement, a protest, to make Rito change their decision and Add Fracture back to the map pool!

Spam the below copypasta everywhere to annoy rito into actually doing what the community wants!

Sadness.
Sadness doesn't even begin to describe the emptiness that I feel.
Sadness.
A pit of despair replacing where my heart used to be.
Sadness.

Why Rito, why must you cause this void within me to grow ever so.
It has been 11 months of sadness,
11 months of Despair,
11 months of Fracture being out of rotation.

Why?
Why?

Does it bring happiness to you Rito to cause Despair?
To cause that feeling of emptiness?
To cause,
Sadness?

I will retire from Valorant if Fracture isn't the next map to come back (after the recently announced changes)

I agree, Fracture is actually my favourite map in the game honestly but a lot of people (shitters) don't like it because it requires actual communication and coordination with your team

Genuinely if Fracture isn't the next map brought back I will no longer be playing Valorant I will go back to Seige.

Riot announced they are removing Lotus and Icebox and bringing back Split and Pearl. WHERE IS FRACTURE? I don't understand, Fracture is one of the most fun maps to watch in VCT, it requires the most team play and coordination, making it perfect for premier but it hasn't been in rotation for the entire time Premier has existed.

Also Lotus? Why remove Lotus? Its an actual decent map that isn't as stale as other maps. Like Ascent isn't a bad map but its boring now and has been in the game since the beginning with little to no variation and innovation.

Also Lotus was my Premier teams best map, so this hurts personally.

Bringing back Pearl and Split is a good thing tbh, I'm not a big fan of Pearl but its been gone for a while and change will be interesting, but Fracture is RIGHT there.

Sorry just ranting cus sad :(

While I was an actual fan of Optic, Prime EG clears easily just because how the game evolves. Simply because of how young this game is, as time goes on teams get better, players get better. It's the same reason that current Sen would absolutely destroy reykjavik Sen
