It’s a joke from black metal circles signalling they’re traditional leaning. TRVE KVLT was the first thing

It's a white nationalist thing originating from the original English alphabet.

In Ye Olde English, the symbol for the sound of "U" was V. U was added later for modern english.

This is also why W, which is two Vs put together, is pronounced "double U" and not "double V."

No, morons. It originated in Roman Latin. They inscribed U as V. Thats where it came from.

You two have way too much confidence for being this ignorant.

Upsilon look like lower case u and upper Y. Following your lead.

That may have contributed to popularity.
Kids were saying “on fleek” for a while. Idk but I suppose it came from old writings with the long S that looks like an F.

Another boomer here. It means the writer is trying to be classical, and therefore "classy," with a wry twist.
