Only Butterfly Attends Unhated Insects Annual Meeting

UNHATED Insects <-- ANNUAL MEETING
Overview
This is a two-panel humorous comic meme. The top panel depicts a sidewalk next to a building with an arched window, where a folded paper sign reads "UNHATED Insects ANNUAL MEETING" with a left-pointing arrow. The bottom panel shows a large empty conference room with a round table surrounded by many empty chairs, with only a single blue butterfly sitting at the table as the only person in attendance. The joke is based on the common observation that nearly all insect species are widely disliked by humans, with butterflies being one of the very few exceptions that are generally viewed positively and not hated, making it the only insect to show up to the meeting.
Origin notes
The meme is referenced as originating from X.com (formerly Twitter) per the provided source information. It is an original hand-drawn comic that spread as a lighthearted relatable joke online, playing on widely shared public attitudes towards different types of insects.
