President Biden’s campaign team is hiring a master of memes

The successful candidate will be responsible for “engaging the internet’s top content and meme pages.”

United States President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign team is looking for a meme expert in an apparent effort to win over Generation Z voters.

The Biden for President (BFP) campaignposteda job position for a “Partner Manager” with a successful candidate responsible for initiating and managing “day-to-day operations in engaging the internet’s top content and meme pages.”

According to Indeed, Biden’s camp will pay its Wilmington, Delaware-based meme manager between $65,000 and $85,000 a year, which is slightly above average for digital marketer pay in the United States.

According to the job description, the main task of the Biden meme master would be to manage relationships with digital media companies, podcasters and “meme pages across a number of social media platforms.”

Biden’s team has dabbled in meme creation before. His campaign embraced the “Dark Brandon” laser eyes meme in early 2022 in an attempt to cast the 81-year-old as internet-savvy.

In February, Biden was asked about the Dark Brandon meme by Seth Meyers on hisLate Nightshow. He replied, “I resent the hell out of it,” before donning a pair of dark aviators.

Biden again donned the sunglasses and referenced the persona to cheers from the audience at the annual dinner of the White House Correspondents’ Association in April.

On the other side of the political lines, Trump is no stranger to memes. His August 2023 mugshot went viral after being processed at Fulton County Jail, Georgia, for his fourth indictment.

The Scion
A young figure caught in a moment of distraction, aware only ephemerally of his unconscious being, as it engages in psychological and psychedelic layer spaces. His right arm casually cradles a moray eel; the figure is comfortable but not truly aware of the potentials for danger in such negligence. His shirt reads “Bello” in Pokemon style font, harkening back to a childhood straddling the millennial threshold. To his right side, out of the unconscious deep, shrouded alien heads propagate as a fractal totem, each new iteration a more sophisticated rendering of emotional masking over the cold mystery of the greys. As the scion of the Budgie-Sattva, the young man, in his distraction, is also simultaneously aware of higher levels of self discovery. To his left a psychological topology sets beneath the oracle side of an 8 ball ,hovering; its message a purest concept of acceptance. The “Scion” lettering is in 80’s HeMan style bold declaration. The lower right side of the painting is like a hybrid of melon, feathers, and seeds. The crystals in the background bring light; conducted, refracted, reflected, and dispersed, to balance the dark shadow of the figure’s physical body. The aura of the scion succeeds in layers to point, with a finger, and the crown chakra, toward a center of a mandala existing as nigh pure application of strokes, in essence painterly abstraction, but also revealing hints of the Aura of migraine, and the bi-hemispherical nature of the brain–noting concerns of the possibility of inherited mental disease. Yet the flourish of chakra as it sets against that center is robust, active, coherent, and reveling against all fear. Fundamentally, the piece speaks to the activation of one’s potential to begin to “Know Thyself”, and find greater awareness out of the enigmas of the mind–as an inculcated seed given to the rich soil of one’s own birthright.
