That's What They Want You to Think

Text on the meme

That's what they want you to think BREAKING: Iran's President and Foreign Minister have died in helicopter crash

What it means

A Fallout-style wasteland scene shows two armed characters beneath the caption “That's what they want you to think,” alongside a mock breaking-news post claiming that Iran’s president and foreign minister died in a helicopter crash. The joke implies a conspiratorial alternative explanation for the news. The clip is set to Duran Duran’s synth-pop song “Invisible,” whose dramatic, detached mood reinforces the absurd conspiracy-reaction tone.
