@menaquinone4 not bad, but I'm looking for more of an intellectual defense of it
Can someone give me a link that would help someone understand "based" in its usage as a compliment?

@HbdNrx Based: Founded in reality. -
@ne0colonial I like that as the most essential point. I feel like I read a good blog post one on it that I want to link someone to. -

@wellplayd_ggate@ne0colonial here's one thing. I thought maybe there was another from farther back, but good enough: http://www.radixjournal.com/journal/2015/6/20/based …

@HbdNrx i got it from 4chan and i think it got picked up there from lil wayne as in 'based god' -
@robvfour I have a question for you: where does the "revealing your power level" phrase come from? -
@HbdNrx i think that's from the anime board and means giving away IRL how obsessed with anime you are. I dont watch or browse anime tho -
@HbdNrx so that may not be correct -
@robvfour I get the impression it's been extended to political opinions as well -
@HbdNrx makes sense, it fits that usage pretty well
