Can someone share the origin of this meme? (The hooded smiling man) I can't find anything on Know Your Meme and it's everywhere.

Look up Guy Fawkes. I don't remember all the details but I think he was some French guy who got executed for something.

Unless you're talking about that specific person wearing that outfit in which case he's from the movie V for Vendetta with Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving.

Edit: I don't know how to read.

I knew I got the details wrong. Thanks for the correction!

Even though I completely misunderstood what that person was asking about lmao
