The internet is many things — an endless scroll of dog videos, your aunt’s all-caps Facebook rants, and, occasionally, a bubbling cauldron of political absurdity.

Macron laughed off the embarrassing moment, but not before it birthed one of the dumbest conspiracy theories of 2025: that Macron has been replaced by a body double.
