About

Bernie Sanders Using a Computer is an image macro series of Senator Bernie Sanders seated at a computer on a desk. The image has been used in image edits and two-captioned image macros joking about what Sanders is looking at on the computer monitor (similar to Justin Timberlake's Super Bowl Halftime Show Selfie Kid).

Origin

On December 16th, 2013, Senator Sanders used a photograph of himself at a computer as a verification photograph for a Reddit [1] Ask Me Anything. The post received more than 2,700 points (87% upvoted) and 2,400 comments in less than seven years (shown below).

Spread

Two years later, on September 5th, 2015, Reddit[2] QuaziHam shared the image in the /r/photoshopbattles subreddit. The post received more than 12,000 points (85% upvoted) and 1,100 comments in less than five years (examples below).

TRUMP

In 2020, the meme returned as a two-panel image macro of Sanders looking at different things online. For example, on January 17th, Twitter [3] user @chaselyons shared a version in which Sanders plays Scary Maze Game. The post received more than 73,000 likes and 10,000 retweets in less than four days (shown below, left). Twitter user @subtlefreckles shared a version in which Sanders plays the My Scene "Dazzling Nails" game. The post received more than 144,000 likes and 39,000 retweets in less than four days (shown below, right).
