‘Excited to see the memes’: Germany’s Olaf Scholz posts eyepatch photo

There will be memes anyway, it's better PR to own it and he may attempt to look in touch with the people.
Also has the added benefit of reassuring the public that it's not so bad.

Austin Powers:
What exactly do you do, Mr. Number Two?

Number Two:
That's my business. Now if you'll excuse, I have to go to the little boys' room.

Don't give him what he wants, guys.

Dark Scholz be like: "Let's keep our nuclear power plants so we can have cheap and safe clean energy."

The eyepatch just doesn't feel funny to me
