If you don’t know who Eric Mays is, you are about to find out. Mays is a Flint City Councilman who has gone viral on the internet for the past couple of weeks for his filterless responses, witty rebuttals and angry outbursts during council meetings.

He’s the embodiment of “You got me messed up.”

Though holding people accountable (in his own way) and asking the hard questions about the issues facing Flint residents , his disruptive behavior continuously got him kicked out of meetings. Mays was recently convicted of disorderly conduct facing either 90 days in jail or a $500 fine, per ABC12 .

No matter if the suit he wears is black or orange, a coalition of social media supporters are rooting for him (featuring a TikTok page dedicated to all his best moments). Take a look at 15 of the most popular Eric “MF” Mays moments that made social media fall in love with him.
