FlopTok / Floptropica

FlopTok and Floptropica refer to a genre of TikTok memes that play on the slang term " flop era " and use predominantly feminine and LGBTQ+ meme references and characters (such as Wendy Williams , Jiafei and Deborah Ali-Williams ) to paint a universe called Floptropica located on the imagined Floptropica Island, where the characters and memes exist. The genre plays on the precursor Badussy War which also used female, meme icons in a satirical, world-building manner. Overall, FlopTok is similar to "Stan Twitter " memes and utilize low-quality and moldy videos for aesthetic purposes. FlopTok memes started in 2021 and trended en masse going into 2022 and 2023.
