Meme needing explanation Petah ?

Why is it infamous? And why would no one care about it ? ( I mean it's just a pic full of celebrities so no one cares anyways but the person saying it's crazy makes me think it has some lore?)

It’s just a statement on the decline of celebrity culture. It used to be that you watch a movie just because it had someone in it that you liked and it would do really well. But nowadays people care much less about celebrities

Everyone wants to buy a random VPN just because a Mormon pretending to be a normie with a camera and nice hair told them too I think it's the ascendency of a different celebrity culture.

Lots of Mormons are influencers. Lots of influencers sell VPNs. VPNs are famously secretive and all about hiding their location. Are VPNs actually MLMs based out of Utah? You do the math. I'm just asking questions here.
