President Joe Biden had conspiracy theorists in a tizzy after posting what appeared to be his reaction to the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl win on Sunday night.
āJust like we drew it up,ā Biden posted on X alongside a photo of āDark Brandon,ā the meme created by hardcoreāand very onlineāsupporters of Donald Trump that Biden and his team loved so much they adopted it as their own.
The post was apparently referencing far-right conspiracy theories which posit the NFL and high-level government operatives conspired to rig the Super Bowl in Kansas Cityās favor to give maximum exposure to a yet-to-be-announced endorsement from Chiefs star Travis Kelce and his girlfriend Taylor Swift.
I mean, you really think that the 81 year old president of the united states, is terminally online enough to know about a niche meme, related to him, called āshadow brandonā, and is also terminally online enough to want to turn around and post it on twitter?

I mean sure but I donāt really see what he has to do with whether or not the president personally decided to meme or not. I would kind of hope shadowlord eepy joe would have better shit to do than shitpost on twitter.

Ah yes, he has to be āterminally onlineā to be aware of a hugely popular meme about him.
Youāre also missing the whole deal of him talking about and mentioning this meme several times and he and his PR team having made their own jokes for it for a couple of years now. All of this has been extremely hard to miss. I donāt interact much with US politics any more than what pops up here on Lemmy and the biggest things that get worldwide reporting and Iāve seen this several times.
