Dicks Out For Harambe

"Dicks Out For Harambe" is a viral internet meme originating from the 2016 incident surrounding the death of Harambe, a gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo. After the zoo shot Harambe to protect a child who fell into his enclosure, public outcry followed, expressing both anger and sadness. The phrase emerged as a humorous rallying cry, encouraging people to honor Harambe by figuratively "taking out their genitals" in a show of support. It highlights the absurdity of the situation and reflects broader themes of internet culture, meme making, and the emotional responses to wildlife conservation debates.
