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.
“Just like we drew it up,” Biden posted on X alongside a photo of “Dark Brandon,” the meme created by hardcore—and very online—supporters 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 City’s favor to give maximum exposure to a yet-to-be-announced endorsement from Chiefs star Travis Kelce and his girlfriend Taylor Swift.
It is kinda funny ngl
It’s fucking hilarious! This is exactly how you respond to something so utterly ridiculous.
Troll the trollers. I’m here for it! I want my president to be smarter than the dumb conspiracies I’m being forced fed by the morons!

I’d be surprised if he could properly post a tweet. I wonder if his pr team even bothered with running it by him. I think the post is hilarious, but I know it wasn’t Bidens idea, or even the one tweeting it.

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 “shadow brandon”, and is also terminally online enough to want to turn around and post it on twitter?

I mean sure but I don’t 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 “terminally online” to be aware of a hugely popular meme about him.
You’re 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 don’t interact much with US politics any more than what pops up here on Lemmy and the biggest things that get worldwide reporting and I’ve seen this several times.

English is also my second language. Good job putting together longer sounding words to sound smart but not mean anything!
It makes perfect sense to people that know what the high school level words mean. Whether it’s funny is debatable.
Sigh
Unzips
There you go mate, that’s what you were craving, right?
Exactly. How the hell else are we gonna get dopamine and serotonin today? They’ve removed all the naturally occuring sources of with their fucked up policies and general ghoulishness. Where else then but from the tears of their impotent, incandescent rage?
Mmmm. The rage gives it that lemony twist.
I’m fucking hysterical
