Where does the “Les Kids United” meme come from?

Kids United is a French vocal group formed in 2015, bringing together young singers originally for a Unicef France awareness campaign, before achieving real commercial success with choir covers of French-language songs. The group became known for a wholesome, consensus-friendly image designed to appeal to a very wide audience, kids and parents alike. That smooth, upbeat image became, by contrast, a comedic device when paired with situations that are anything but harmonious, the gap between the group's gentle message and a tense context producing the intended effect.
