The 'America's Alien UN Rep' meme stems from a viral video clip of US Deputy Representative Robert Wood during a UN Security Council meeting. A peculiar digital compression glitch caused his eyes to appear unnaturally large and dark as he blinked, leading internet users to joke that he was an extraterrestrial or 'lizard person' in disguise. The meme quickly gained traction on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok, where creators use the uncanny footage to highlight 'glitches in the matrix' or satirize the robotic nature of political proceedings. It serves as a perfect example of how technical artifacts can transform a routine diplomatic event into a global viral phenomenon.
