I wouldn't be wrong in assuming that you have seen this pesky bird on your news feed at some point in the past few days. As a meme, perhaps a comment somewhere, or even a video featuring this sticker prominently. This is the latest viral sensation that has been storming the internet recently. So we decided to try and find out why this bird is such a sensation.
The first thing you need to know about this bird is that, it was created by artist Syd Weller as part of the latest set of stickers launched on Jan 31st. The sticker for some reason found an instant fan base among the Thai people. They made a video featuring the Trash Dove which went viral instantly.
The original artist even released a special sticker of the bird holding the flag of Thailand, as a thank you to the Thai people.
There is a shocking Nazi angle to the whole thing, claiming that this is a symbol of Neo-Nazis. This began when several alt right groups began spamming the posts of liberal and leftist users with this bird. It is funny how something as innocent as a bird can be skewed to mean something so absurd.
A simpler explanation for this would probably come from Thailand again. The trash dove is called "Nok" in Thai. "Nok" can also mean 'single' or 'friendzoned'. Now naturally, single people began spamming the comments section everywhere. This was their way of sending a message during the Valentine's Week. If you remember, the rise of this viral bird coincided with the Valentine's Week. This is the simplest explanation for this bird. So Basically, ee bird ni comment chesina prathi saari.... meeru single ane frustration ni vyaktham cheskuntunnaranamaata....!
