    I got the impression that the “Dark Brandon” meme was an ironic take on all of the MAGA pap being continuously spewed at the time. Some people may miss the irony and take it at face value, but that’s the way it goes sometimes.

      dark brandon came out of the photoshopped images of biden in front of the Whitehouse looking all “dictatory”. the conservative pearl clutching was so hilarious that the memeologists went with it and dark brandon was born.
