About

She Lost, So You Need To Take That Off / Oh, You One of Them refers to a viral video of a large Black man wearing a Kamala Harris 2024 shirt who's told to take it off by the man filming him. Oddly, the guy then opens his mouth wide and moves his head, making the cameraman say, "Oh, you one of them," seemingly realizing that the man is probably crazy and likely homeless. The video was widely shared on TikTok in late 2024 and early 2025. It was given captions by meme creators or used as a TikTok sound. The videos mostly joked about revealing oneself as a fan or member of a certain subculture. In the videos, people reenacted the man's mouth movement.
