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.

    this whole line of discussion is a red herring: you accused another user of something that would be easy to prove if true, and instead you are making erroneous attacks on my person.

      You claiming that anyone stationed on an aircraft carrier can afford a home would be easy to prove if true.

      But you didn’t.

      And you made your claim first.

        1, i said they could afford a home, not that they could buy one

        2, uh… if you think the navy doesn’t provide on-base housing that someone could afford on their salary, i don’t know what to say.

        3, this is a red herring. you haven’t proven your claim, and are instead making erroneous attacks on an unrelated topic.

          LOL! You’re not even reading my comments!

          Me:

          You claiming that anyone stationed on an aircraft carrier can afford a home would be easy to prove if true.

          You:

          1, i said they could afford a home, not that they could buy one

          This would be tragic if it wasn’t so funny.

            anyone who gets this far in the thread will see, above, where you said that i claimed they could buy a home. you’re shifting the goalposts.

              So you’re now claiming you weren’t responding to the comment I just made, you were responding to something I said earlier?

              This is some hilarious desperation.

                  Sure. As soon as you provide me evidence that every person stationed on an aircraft carrier can afford to purchase a home.

                  Yes, I know, you’re going to claim you meant on-base housing even though they don’t have to pay for that and you were talking about affording to pay for something with their government money.

                  I will enjoy seeing you deny all of that. I’d post a screenshot, but you’d just claim it didn’t say what it clearly says in the screenshot.

                    looks like you understand what i said, and that i was right, but just want to fight with me about it instead of backing up your claim.

              I got this far and you know what I see? An idiot trying their best to suggest that “being able to afford a home” and “being able to buy a home” aren’t the same thing.

              My god, dude talks about goalposts when they can’t even keep track of what they’re saying. How the fuck are you going to tell me that you’re capable of knowing where the goalposts are when you can’t even keep track of the fucking field? 🤣🤣
