Debunking Conspiracy Theories Surrounding Joe Biden's "Lazer Eye" Tweet

 



On the evening of Feb. 11, 2024, shortly after the Kansas City Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl 59, an image of U.S. President Joe Biden with glowing red laser eyes circulated online, along with the caption, "Just like we drew it up." Screenshots of the post indicated that Biden's official account on X (formerly Twitter) made the post.


The post referenced the "Dark Brandon" meme — that is, imagery depicting Biden as a nonhuman villain with laser eyes and is a satirical response to critics. Prior to the championship game, many right-wing conspiracy theorists made posts about Democrats secretly scheming with Chiefs tight Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift to help Biden's 2024 presidential campaign. They believed high-profile Democrats worked with the NFL to rig the season so that Kelce and Swift would end up at the highly watched event and endorse Biden there, CNN reported.


However, following this tweet, some individuals have spun wild and baseless conspiracy theories linking the tweet to other unrelated events, namely the tragic helicopter crash that claimed the lives of the Nigerian CEO and other prominent figures. These unfounded claims suggest that Biden's tweet somehow signifies his involvement in rigging the Super Bowl or orchestrating the helicopter crash.


It's crucial to address these conspiracy theories with facts and rational analysis. Firstly, there is no evidence whatsoever to support the idea that Joe Biden or any Democrats were involved in rigging the Super Bowl. The notion that a sitting president would manipulate a sporting event for political gain is not only absurd but lacks any basis in reality.


Secondly, attempting to link Biden's tweet to the helicopter crash is equally unfounded and irresponsible. The tragic accident is under investigation by authorities, who are focused on determining the cause of the crash and ensuring accountability if any wrongdoing is discovered. Blaming a tweet for such a catastrophic event not only trivializes the loss of life but also distracts from the actual investigation and search for truth.


Conspiracy theories like these thrive on misinformation, speculation, and a lack of critical thinking. They do a disservice to the victims of tragedies and undermine the efforts of those working to uncover the facts. It's important for individuals to question and scrutinize information they encounter online, seeking reputable sources and evidence-based explanations.


In conclusion, the "lazer eye" tweet from Joe Biden was a satirical reference to the "Dark Brandon" meme and has no connection to the Super Bowl or the helicopter crash. It's imperative to reject baseless conspiracy theories and focus on verifiable facts and evidence when discussing significant events. Let's honor the memory of those affected by tragedy by seeking truth and promoting responsible discourse.

Lefties Losing It: Snow White actress Rachel Zegler’s ‘massive backflip’

Once Upon a Woke Time… There was a time when Disney enchanted audiences with stories that transcended time—tales of courage, hope, and yes, true love. But in 2025, Snow White —a reboot of the beloved 1937 classic—hit the box office not with a magical bang, but a dismal thud. Critics panned it, audiences stayed away, and even loyal Disney fans were left scratching their heads. Why did it fail? Was it poor marketing? A saturated market? Or could it be that Disney forgot the golden rule: stay out of politics, and let the story shine ? When the Princess Doesn’t Believe in Princes Much of the backlash can be traced to the film’s star, Rachel Zegler. Long before the movie hit theaters, clips surfaced of Zegler dismissing the original Snow White tale. She stated in interviews that the story was outdated, mocked the idea of being “saved by a prince,” and emphasized that her version of Snow White was “not dreaming about true love.” Now, let’s pause for a second. It’s one thing to adapt a...

Dr. W. B. Clark and the 1909 Cancer-Public Health Debate: Parasites as a Cause?

In the early 20th century, as medical science continued to evolve, a variety of theories emerged about the origins and causes of cancer. One of the more controversial voices in this conversation was Dr. W. B. Clark , a physician who, in 1909 , boldly declared that parasites were the primary cause of cancer . His views sparked both intrigue and skepticism within the scientific community, highlighting the tensions between emerging medical theories and established norms of the time. Who Was Dr. W. B. Clark? Dr. W. B. Clark was a practicing physician in Indiana, active during a period when cancer research was still in its infancy. Although not a household name today, he contributed to the growing body of medical speculation and debate surrounding the nature of cancer. At the time, cancer was poorly understood, and treatments were rudimentary at best. Researchers explored a wide range of causes, from environmental factors to heredity — and in Clark's case, infectious organisms . The Par...
