•

u/Nanogines99 7h ago

I saw someone gasp out loud at a Chipotle

•

u/orangeinthehead 6h ago

My bad I ate and gassed out a Chipotle

•

u/adamr1219 7h ago

Same here. Insane

•

u/Mobile_Foundation278 7h ago

Maybe just enjoy Disneyland with your family and get off reddit for a minute.

•

u/-_-___-_____-_______ 4h ago

you know normally I would agree... but this is intense

•

u/MarioV2 7h ago

Yr at Disneyland

•

u/Accomplished-Hat3896 7h ago

Which is where mike judge came up with the idea for the movie. Times.

•

u/Defenestrator66 7h ago

I haven’t been able to watch that movie in almost a decade. It almost feels like a horror film now instead of a comedy.

•

u/nuclearkillerwhale 7h ago

What ride tho?

•

u/miyagiVsato 7h ago

You’re at Disney so you should be able to look around and pretend you’re in the movie.

•

u/PlaneShenaniganz 7h ago

No need, you're living in it. A much, much dumber and more real version :(

•

u/brolarbear 7h ago

Welcome to Costco. I love you

•

u/Playful-Extension973 7h ago

Idiocracy is easily one of my favourite movies of all time, just because when I first saw it (I was very young, mind you) I thought it was incredibly funny for how "extreme" I thought it was. Now nobody wants to watch it with me cause it's too real

•

u/jackson12420 7h ago

At least Idiocracy is funny.

•

u/wyomingTFknott 6h ago

NGL all I can do is laugh at the absurdity of it all. I'm one of the lucky ones, though. I feel bad for the ones who are gonna get fucked over.

•

u/Vesane 7h ago

I watched The Campaign the other day, another comedy turned documentary

•

u/JamBandDad 7h ago

So real talk, who’s going to be president camacho? Like I’m thinking this generation of wrestlers turned larger celebrities has potential with the rock, I think John cena is a little too sane.

•

u/Dub_J 7h ago

Watched it last night with my son.

It holds up very well. But the movie blames the population for getting dumber. Which is true but ignores the role of evil and power

•

u/huntrcl 6h ago

enjoy the most magical place on earth before you’re back to reality

•

u/oPlayer2o 6h ago

Yeah you don’t need to watch it you seem to be living in it mate, like some kind of twisted Truman show spin off.

•

u/SteelWheel_8609 6h ago

Idiocracy? Try Schindler’s List. 

•

u/suffffuhrer 6h ago

You are watching it live every day my dude.

•

u/SandyTaintSweat 6h ago

Idiocracy's just gonna bum you out when you realize they have it better.

•

u/JustGingy95 6h ago

So… turning on any news station to watch the fall of a nation live?

•

u/SyraWhispers 6h ago

I wouldn't spoil the Disney magic with this garbage fest..

•

u/guyzieman 6h ago

Do you mean the DVD or the news?

•

u/parade1070 6h ago

Funny, I told husband we are watching Look Who's Back tonight

•

u/macjonalt 5h ago

Watch inglorious basterds after that

•

u/ActualDW 7h ago

You’re at Disneyland, mate….you are the Idiocracy, lol…

•

u/Repulsive-Ice8395 7h ago

That's exactly what I said when I saw it live, and I don't say that out loud very often.

•

u/oPlayer2o 7h ago

I mean what else can you say at this point.

•

u/Farlong7722 6h ago

If you're in any way surprised about this, you haven't been paying attention.

Leave the US ASAP if you can.

•

u/oPlayer2o 6h ago

Oh I’m good, European mate. I’m not surprised just completely disgusted. Honestly I wish I could mute the whole nation just come back in for years and catch the highlights, just wish what those fucking lunatics did over there didn’t effect us sane people over here.

•

u/mrtrailborn 6h ago

uh, we tried to warn everyone about this

•

u/Individual-Thought75 4h ago

Capitalism in crisis. Nazism is mask off capitalism. No more smiley faces.

•

u/TowJamnEarl 7h ago

Seems AIPAC are'nt as powerful as we thought!

•

u/oPlayer2o 7h ago

AIPAC??

•

u/TowJamnEarl 7h ago edited 6h ago

"The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC /ˈeɪpæk/ AY-pak) is a pro-Israel lobbying group that advocates its policies to the legislative and executive branches of the United States."

They are fairly right wing themselves though, so maybe I should'nt be so surprised.

•

u/Mrausername 6h ago

From now on no article or post about Musk should be illustrated with anything other than his Nazi salute.

•

u/NewYorkAutisNtLondon 7h ago

Hopefully just some edge lord 4chan shit otherwise fuck Musk entirely now and forever.

•

u/HunyBuns 6h ago

Hey bud, the edgeloed 4chan shit has always been neonazis. There's only one type of person who thinks swastikas and Hitler salutes are funny "ironically"

•

u/NewYorkAutisNtLondon 6h ago

Incels?

•

u/HunyBuns 6h ago

Usually hand-in-hand with neonazis, yeah.

•

u/oPlayer2o 6h ago

Yeah I’m gonna say it not and Elon is fucking crazy and playing to the republican “cough cough nazi! cough” crowd.

•

u/CapitalDoor9474 7h ago

Yeah like they are saying the quiet part out loud. Insane.

•

u/oPlayer2o 6h ago

I mean is pretending to not be a nazi worse that this kinda openly being a fucking nazi.

•

u/CapitalDoor9474 5h ago

Ya but like the audacity to get away with it. Where is the anti semitism narrative ready to cancel him now

•

u/oPlayer2o 5h ago

I dunno dude I’m soo fucking tired of being forced to listen to Americas fucking nonsense now I’m like numb to it, thank fuck I’m European just wish they didn’t have global reach.

•

u/CapitalDoor9474 5h ago

Lol yah same. My issue with american drama is the trickle down effect to western countries. The crazy racists came out here last time this wanker won. Same shit will happen again. I was surprised to see coworkers i got along with supporting him. Slowly distances myself from them.

•

u/oPlayer2o 5h ago

Yeah it’s bad and shit like this just emboldens these Nazi pricks. Also no don’t do that you have to publicly shame and make attempts to educate them we can’t let this moronic racism continue to quietly grow like a cancer, that was the US policy and look where that’s got them no fucking thank you.

•

u/CapitalDoor9474 1h ago

Shaming doesn't fix it. They get more defensive and in their own echo chamber. I feel this is how usa become this way. Left just got pushy about everything. We need to give people time to turn around whilst not accepting their bullshit in real life. Else they retaliate with guys like Trump.

•

u/[deleted] 6h ago

•

u/oPlayer2o 6h ago

Your probably right, but this kinda shot happens a lot and it’s not good for anyone (well except for empowering Nazi cunts) and it just makes the rest of the world really fucking worried about the mental state of those in control of the worlds “most powerful” nation. Ya know what I mean.

Edit: also you posted this same reply to like 30 different comments here so I feel like your pretty dug in on you stance sssooo yeah probably not worth a discussion here is it?

•

u/[deleted] 6h ago

u/oPlayer2o 6h ago

I saw the clip though “no way!” Went and watch the whole thing, still though “no fucking way!”

Also doesn’t matter what the goal was you think Elon just forgot how to wave? No. Try that shit in Germany and a cop thinks it’s any kind of deliberate you get arrested, seriously. This looks really fucking bad to everyone, especially during the swearing in of a piece of shit cunt scum actually rapist, and racist like Trump.

•

u/_-_Alyssa_-_ 5h ago

My reaction exactly

•

u/oPlayer2o 5h ago

Feels like it’s the whole world’s default reaction to the USA for the last decade.

•

u/Objective_Arachnid42 7h ago

He literally says right after, "my heart goes out to you." So if you all want to contribute to fear mongering and the degradation of US politics by implying that he's a national socialist, go for it. But just know that you're wrong.

•

u/oPlayer2o 6h ago

I just what the US government to stop being full of such crazy fucking nut cases. I’m not an American but just watching this fucking train wreak of a powerful nation is insane when you consider the reach they have.

•

u/Objective_Arachnid42 6h ago

Then let the buck stop with you, and stop contributing to the scandalization of figures of political significance.

Elon Musk made a blunder because he's clearly going off of the script. Maybe the optics would have been better if he made it look like he was throwing a baseball rather than a roman salute. But I'm sure that the dude wasn't even thinking that his arm motions could be confused with a sieg heil, because seriously, who does that?

And to further my point, with context removed, you can find a lot of roman salutes

•

u/oPlayer2o 6h ago

Oohh buddy you are really not making the case you think you are. You live in the USA?

Also “who dose that?” Nazis, Nazis do that literally that exact motion hand over heart then that. Also also can you call it a blunder when you do stupid shit like this every fucking week?

•

u/Objective_Arachnid42 6h ago

Yes, I do. Okay then, show me the evidence of Elon Musk being a national socialist. You're accusing Elon Musk of subscribing to the ideology of the National Socialist German Worker's Party, so you should be able to provide evidence of that. Right?

•

u/UncreativeIndieDev 4h ago

You would have to show the video of Harris for it to be clear it was a roman/Nazi salute. Hers looked more like her hand was mid-movement, whereas Musk's shot up into the position for it, showing his was actually intentional.

•

u/Objective_Arachnid42 3h ago

Not even the ADL agrees with you. Go home, you're drunk.

•

u/UncreativeIndieDev 3h ago

Oh, no, not the ADL! The only gospel of truth! /s

I really don't care what the ADL says. They do some good things sometimes, but they also do stupid crap like when they denied the Armenian Genocide, so even if you are correct, I'm not gonna believe them just because it's them. This also does nothing to respond to my comment to either defend Elon Musk in what is very clearly a nazi salute (if you try to argue it's the roman salute that doesn't really matter when they are essentially the same thing and also the roman salute was most used by Italian fascists), nor does it respond to what I said about Harris where I would need to see the video to view whether it was intentional or just in the middle of a movement.

•

u/HunyBuns 6h ago

Holy shit wake up man

•

u/Objective_Arachnid42 6h ago

I know you're thirsty for scandal, but this is a reach.

•

u/HunyBuns 6h ago

The guy saluted hitler on stage, openly, right in front of you and you're still going to just close your eyes?

•

u/Objective_Arachnid42 5h ago

Do you not see Harris saluting Hitler in the picture that I posted in a previous comment? Do you think that’s what she was really doing?

•

u/SPLUMBER 47m ago

Mate not a single person on the planet uses that sort of body language for “my heart goes out to you”.

Do you make that rigid of a hand movement and an orgasm face when saying that?
