      Do you think whoever was in charge of Qing China posted the 1800’s equivalent of soy compilations, or is that uniquely American?

        Qing era soy compilations are when you keep detailed records of the production and transportation of soy beans.

    I’m normally one to advocate for moving beyond concepts like cringe and just enjoying whatever, but i’m making an exception for this.

    Yeah I’m as baffled as everybody else. Who is making these clips? Some 35yr old WH staffer?

    Who’s the audience here, millennials? Anyone under 30 is guaranteed to NOT comprehend all these movie references, right? Are there any zoomers that have actually seen the OG gladiator? Do Boomers/GenXers understand the GTA San Andreas “Here we go again…” from the other clip?

    I don’t understand. Who comes up with content like that, who greenlights that shit? It is all AI insanity? Many questions.

      You’re giving them too much credit. This was 100% some AI shit with a prompt like “do this and add memes” or something.

      Or maybe they are trying to target 32-45 year old nerds for some reason. Thankfully I think we’re all too bitter and tired to fall for it.

        AI video models can’t do that, not even something absolutely horrifying like LTX that includes audio generation. This looks like it’s mostly just a traditionally chopped up series of clips from different things MUXed with random lines from movies and TV shows that terminally online chuds substituted for a personality ten years ago and never let go of.

    The White House is doing its part to kill memes and pop culture I see.

    Isn’t Beerus literally an amoral god of destruction that throws tantrums over pudding?

    Anyway, I was going to say that the US is more like Mr. Satan. But even though Mr. Satan was a fraud and an idiot, he had a heart of gold. Bro defeated Buu by teaching him to care for a puppy, that’s wholesome shit.

    So fuck it, America is Freeza. Oh no I’m one step away from doing the liberal Dumbledore meme
