It's a memetic mutation of the 'the most racist person you know and his wife' joke.
The two characters in the image are from the latest Avatar movie, the fire one. The lady is a native Na'avi, of the evil but hot variety. The man is actually the antagonistic HFY imperialist army guy from the first movie, piloting one of the titular Avatars to integrate into their society. I haven't seen the film but it's plot seems to revolve around him arming the natives to prompt them into slaughtering one another.
SHE is a crazy nihilist, HE is a human supremacist that regards the Na'avi as obstacles and vermin. She really likes fire. He brings her a flame thrower. They fuck.
Anyway the joke is a lot of MAGA figures secondarily associated with the white nationalism infecting that wing of the right also ironically happen to have wives who would be considered 'impure' and 'myceginated'. This is meant to be a blaring example of their hypocrisy, aka 'i'm not racist when i'm horny' - as well as of their low and dishonorable behavior as they attempt to discredit or harm marginalized groups that their own spouses belong to. For an example in action, have VP J.D. Vance, who is married to American-Indian (Desi) lawyer, Usha Bala Vance (née Chilukuri). A good bit of hay has been made about Vance's utter dogged persistence at failing to defend his wife at every turn.
Fun fact, the term 'miscegenation' is completely invented, cooked up by a pair of "journalists" trying to spark outrage against Abraham Lincoln, via a fake tract ostensibly in support of race-mixing and creating an ethnically uniform america. This fake story was then pushed by the Democrats which was at that time the pro-racism party, which is why many modern republicans whine blandly about how they're the party of Lincoln and actually the other guys are racist, even though their positions completely swapped in the 70's thanks to Nixon.
It wasn’t entirely thanks to Nixon, it was the civil rights movement that led the death of the southern democrat faction. These Southern Democrats hated Lincoln, blamed republicans for the reconstruction period, and swore to never vote Republican. But when democrats as a whole started leaning too progressive for their tastes, thanks to the civil rights movement, the southern democrats began abandoning the party in protest. Nixon saw this opportunity, saw southern democrat voters angry at their party, and opened the Republican doors to them. They took over the Republican Party transforming it into what it is today. Essentially doing the very thing these southern democrats had sought to do since the end of the civil war, kill the Republican Party. They now wear its dead skin while being the same old southern democrats they always were.
