"Supposed" is one of those words with a quiet "d" that people seem to often get wrong. Same with "used" especially in "used to" where people write "use to". English sucks, but I still wish people would put in the effort to follow the rules so that they communicate more effectively.
This seems like a result of sandhi, people merge the sounds in speech so they merge them in writing too
100% native speaker mistake. Like the classic mistake of mixing up "its" and "it's", only native speakers do that.
I can almost guarantee to you that a native speaker made this meme. Remember, the average American speaks 0.7 languages.
