Actor Jim Carrey said that the United States is 'morally upside down.
Jim Carrey may be best known for his acting and comedic timing, but he has started to receive attention for a new creative passion - painting. Carrey released a series of artworks in March 2018 that were highly critical of United States President Donald Trump and his administration: If you liked my last cartoon you may also enjoy...

The meme was not accompanied by any information about where and when Carrey allegedly said this (a trait that many misattributed or hoax quotes have in common), which makes it especially difficult to verify. We've searched Carrey's social media posts, news articles, and interviews but have found no evidence of him saying this. In fact, we couldn't find any record of this quote at all that predates the 23 March 2018 posting of this meme. As such, it appears that this 'morally upside down' phrasing originated with the meme maker, not with Jim Carrey.
