Is anyone else watching the parade live right now? (READ BODY PLS)

Discuss?

Oh come on, don't downvote me! I don't support this garbage. But we're living through a major historical event (not just the parade, but this whole thing).

If I can't be out protesting, I'm going to be observing this moment as much as I can. I'm watching protests, too!

I feel no need to observe this in real time. I'll read about it after the fact.

These political sponsorships are K I L L I N G me, lmao.

I feel like it's not long before we hear: "World War 3, brought to you by Coca-Cola! Keeping the troops feeling fresh, every battle!"


This thing is surreal, y'all.

"Rock" music, the commentator is using a sales persona and language, the corporate sponsorships... Kojima might be right again.


"Along with a special thanks to Palantir!!"


I think the "rock music" might be AI... It sounds -very- close to real songs but...not.


Here come the robot dogs!


He just swore a group of cadets in... 🤮


Y'all, this is exactly how dystopic military propaganda is portrayed in media. It almost feels like a parody.


Ope! The concert truck rolled up!


Surrounded by their toy soldiers, they stand behind bulletproof glass.


omg, is it really going to end with a Trump rally?! Why am I surprised?


Okay, no rally, just a self serving speech.

But of course he got Lee fking Greenwood to sing God Bless the USA. 🤦‍♀️
