Brutal Autocrats Hire Hans Zimmer

I hate it when brutal autocrats do the exact thing I would do if I ran a country. Saudi Arabia has asked the Oscar–winning composer, Hans Zimmer, to work on a new version of its national anthem.

A meme shows a man standing beside Hans Zimmer at a piano, paired with a post saying Saudi Arabia hired Zimmer to create a new version of its national anthem. The joke is that the author humorously compares their own imagined authoritarian behavior with Saudi Arabia’s grand, dramatic decision.
