There were a lot of gasp-worthy moments in the finale of The Boys. There is a 7 second long clip of Homelander from the season's very last scene.
Ryan is introduced to a crowd of supporters by Homelander. Ryan was hit in the face by a protestor. The protestor's head was lasered off in response.
Fans of Homelander cheer him on instead of turning against him after watching him kill someone. The reaction meme of the season is when violinists play as we zoom in on Homelander. He smiled and chuckled as he processed the situation, then said, "Alright!"
The scene is chilling because Homelander is an evil fascist who knows that murder isn't too far for his supporters. Right-wing fans of the political satire had a hard time believing that Homelander is an analogue to Donald Trump. The Homelander clip was often used as a reaction to someone realizing they won't face consequences.

Starr's facial expressions, line delivery, and music make this a perfect mix. The original video has been viewed over 20 million times.
There are other Homelander meme that came out of The Boys Season 3. A video of Homelander walking in distress has over 9 million views.

It's the least Homelander can do after being the worst in The Boys, but we're grateful for them. The hope is that Season 4 will bring more killer Homelander reactions and his downfall.
