About

Kids Scared of Rabbit, also known as Children Scared of Rabbit, is an exploitable object-labeling image macro featuring a young girl and boy who are both cowering in fear from a small black rabbit sitting next to a bucket, with the boy more visibly afraid than the girl. The picture has been used as a meme since one of the children's parents brought it to the attention of meme communities in 2015. Since then, the format is mainly used to show groups of people who are afraid, usually of something that seems relatively benign.

The most upvoted image from the original /r/photoshopbattles thread, posted on March 16th, 2021, referred to the Killer Rabbit from Monty Python and the Holy Grail, which is frequently cited in relation to the meme format.

The earliest recorded example of the image being used for object-labeling was a Tumblr[4] post by user footnotestoplato from January 2017, alluding to the philosophy of Albert Camus. The post received more than 250 notes in roughly four years.

French philosopher, author and journalist, Albert Camus is widely known for promoting the concept of “absurdism” — the human conflict between seeking value and meaning in life and our inability to actually find them. He best presented the philosophy in his major works L’Étranger .. https://amzn.to/2MfoW6R .. (The Stranger) and Le Mythe de Sisyphe .. https://amzn.to/2MewpmI .. (The Myth of Sisyphus).

Translation of the blurb for The Stranger inside the link
When the bell rang again, when the box door opened, the silence of the room rose towards me, the silence, and this singular sensation that I had when I noticed that the young reporter looked away. I didn't look at Marie. I didn't have time because the president told me in a bizarre way that I would have my head cut off in a public place in the name of the French people... from a net translator

and for The Myth of Sisyphus
"There is only one truly serious philosophical problem: suicide." absurd sensitivity. He describes the "sickness of the spirit" from which the present era suffers: "The absurd arises from the confrontation of the human call with the unreasonable silence of the world."
