Okay this is the second time I've seen Sydney Sweeney referenced in a meme in less than half a day. I had never heard of her before. Who is she, and why is she suddenly attracting so much meme attention?

Two reasons.

She's an American actress who was in Handmaid's Tale and a few other things and then blew up thanks to her role in Euphoria. She's become a bit of a meme recently because online conservatives think that her boobs are anti-woke

What a bizarre story. Mr. W is me right now:

Screenshot of a Tweet by "Mr. W" saying "I'm genuinely curious as to what woke means to white people lol" in response to another Tweet by "Richard Hanania" saying "Wokeness is dead" with a picture of Sydney Sweeney in a low-cut top"

She's an ~~Australian~~ American actress who blew up last year (she was in euphoria I think?), expect to see her in a ton of upcoming blockbusters.

She also has a pair of massive blockbusters

You are probably thinking of another talented blonde Australian actress.

Pretty sure Radha Mitchell only does front end development.

How dare you speak to Margot Robbie like that
