About

This Is my OWN Conclusion refers to a series of tweets made in parody of a theory put forth on Twitter by comedian Jen Kirkman that Bernie Sanders was a paid "chaos agent" employed by the Russians in the 2016 United States Presidential Election.

Origin

On August 7th, 2017, comedian Jen Kirkman began a tweet thread in which she attempted to lay out her theory that Bernie Sanders was a paid agent by Russia to sabotage the 2016 Presidential Election for Hillary Clinton. She tweeted:

1. Here's the deal. I believe in my heart Bernie is a KNOWING chaos agent paid by Russia in 2016 election. This is my OWN conclusion.

Her tweet was shortly deleted thereafter, but a screenshot is shown below.

Spread

The tweet was instantly mocked for the outlandishness of the theory, and soon, people began parodying the tweet by turning it into a snowclone that follows the template, "Here's the deal. X. This is my OWN conclusion." The first version of these tweets was posted by @sam_ianuzzi[1] 45 minutes after Kirkman's tweet (shown below).


Popular tweets parodying Kirkman's inserted other popular memes into the snowclone, such as I Love This Woman And Her Curvy Body (example shown below, left). The most popular example, posted by Twitter user @leyawn[2] referenced the Chaos Emeralds from Sonic the Hedgehog, gaining over 750 retweets and 4,500 likes (shown below, right).
