![]() ![]() On January 20th, 2021, Tumblr user disabledprincesses posted a version of the meme about Karens, garnering over 520 notes in four months (shown below, left). ![]() ![]() The image has been reposted a number of times on social media, receiving notable attention on Facebook. It is unclear if this user created the image, but is the earliest known user to upload it. On October 13th, 2020, Facebook user Amador Patriot posted a new image inspired by the meme showing Vice President Kamala Harris pushing President Joe Biden off a cliff (shown below). On November 2nd, 2019, Redditor u/TheGreaterGonzales posted a number of restored versions of the image to /r/MemeRestoration, garnering over 560 upvotes in roughly a year (see Templates). The meme spread across social media over the next five years, resulting in many variations. The comic was reposted a number of times, inspiring new variations, including multiple English versions of the meme, such as a November 2015 post to Imgur and a January 2016 post to Tumblr (shown below, left and right respectively). The image was reuploaded by Facebook page Casa Anata on May 27th, translating to, "Heidi: Clara, do you know that I became vegan? Clara: And if you are on a desert island and a tiger comes, then? Heidi: Fuck you Clara." It is unknown who originally posted the meme with added speech bubbles as a stacked two-panel comic, but one of the earliest examples is from a Spanish meme on the now-defunct site ink361 from user marinabuedo on January 15th, 2015 (shown below). The screenshot gained traction among Spanish memers over the course of 2014, resulting in a number of variants (examples shown below, left and right). The image of Clara pushing Heidi off the cliff has been the subject of memes since at least 2013, as evidenced by a demotivational poster reading "This Is Sparta!" using the image from now inactive Very Demotivational website (shown below). One of the earliest related memes referencing the scene was uploaded to YouTube by Gothar esp on February 26th, 2011, titled "Heidi Kills Clara," an edit of a scene from the show in which Heidi pushes Clara off the cliff (shown below), garnering over 593,000 views in 10 years. It is unknown who first created this image, but the earliest instance of it was uploaded to the now-defunct Japanese blog Kamisoku as early as October 3rd, 2009, (shown below) by an unknown user. The image of Clara, a paralyzed character from the anime series Heidi, Girl of the Alps, being pushed off a cliff by Heidi is photoshopped and does not actually happen in the show. ![]()
