Origin and Early History Of Moonman[]
Moonman is part of offensive online meme and parody of McDonald's mascot, Mac Tonight, which was used in the
mid-80's to the early-90's as an attempt to attract the new generation at the time to McDonald's. Moonman doesn't actually have racist origins, in fact alt-right people have adopted Moonman and started to make their own offensive spin-offs of Mac Tonight. Later in 2007, these people made the connection between the KKK's hoodies and Mac Tonight's (Moonman's) pointed head. People also used AT&T's TTS (Text-To-Speech) voice option "Mike" to create racist parodies and raps of existing songs, as well as some original tracks too. In late 2008, the YTMND user "MuMluxMlan" uploaded Moonman - Notorious KKK, a racist parody of a song called "Hypnotize". It became the most well known Moonman "song" very quickly. However, A few other "songs" also became popular, such as Moonman - Whitetopia and Moonman - Crank Dat, both of which advocate: Racism, White Supremacy, Anti-Semitism, Neo-Nazism, Terrorism, and Genocide; just like all the others.
Moonman's Spread Across Platforms[]
Eventually, Moonman spread to all the other platforms, including 4chan, 8chan, Soundcloud, and YouTube. In 2015, The Moonman - Whitetopia Album was released, gaining hundreds of thousands of views. YouTube, however, was quick to delete Whitetopia, as well as everything else related to Moonman. However, Whitetopia was re-published on other websites, and it can still be found today, as well as all the other more popular Moonman Albums. The platforms YTMND, and 8chan were all eventually shut down for renovation or other reasons, most likely related to Moonman and other racist memes, but Moonman content still thrives on Soundcloud and VidLii. You can find many new Moonman tracks on these sites, as new as 2019. The "Mike" TTS is still being used for Moonman tracks, despite the fact that AT&T added a patch to try to prevent any more Moonman songs from being created shortly after the creation of Notorious KKK and Crank Dat.
Bitchute is a great site for moon man.
