But…like…what is all this shit about Obama being connected to that movie? I kept seeing it, but just basically assumed maybe he had some money invested in it, but I can’t find a connection to him anywhere in any information. Is this just a complete fabrication? Or is it more of an over assumption of a small connection?

One of the production companies connected to the film, Higher Ground Productions, was founded by the Obamas. They are credited as executive producers. Apparently Barack is a fan of the book.

Which is a far cry from co-writing the movie of course. Also, without having the read the book, it felt very much in line with the sensibilities of Sam Esmail, who did write (and direct) the movie and who also did "Mr. Robot".
