It's not beautiful when you go across that border.
Stay tuned Ready Yep.
Alright, I'm Alexander Edward.
And I'm Tony Boswell.
And we are Minion Death Cult.
The world is ending.
Our beloved Wiggles are responsible.
We're documenting it.
Hey, what's up, everybody?
We got a lot of fun stuff to get to.

Do with listeners of the show directly after recording this episode On onto the show though because we have so much to get to So this was shared Ben in the in the Facebook group, I believe is the one who shared us shared this to us and it's good We got some news out of Australia Melbourne, Australia It's not good news though, unfortunately.
Like much of what we cover on this show, it's a bit distressing, a bit like freaked out.
And here it is.
The Wiggles, so the children's group where they all wear colors, different colors.
The Wiggles slammed for hinting at, quote, new collab with Lil Nas X.
Oh, cause like... Oh, cause Lil Nas X is gay.
I forgot about that.
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
Well, this is like, this is a lot, because first of all, I thought the Wiggles, I, I just heard their silly voices and I thought that they were like, I forgot that they were Australian.
So that puts a whole new context on this.
We're dealing with, um, uh, like, you know, America, America part, America 2.0 down there.
See, I always looked to, you know, we're losing so many figures of heteronormative masculinity, just strong male role models, like the Wiggles, to this woke BS.
Well, I just thought it was cool that whenever the Wiggles, like, finish their episodes, they'd be like, like, I know you saw all the singing and dancing and whatnot, but we're not gay.
We're tough.
We're still tough men who sing and dance and wear purple.
I don't know if that was the right one, but that's about how they sound.
And I remember them saying that after every episode.
Yeah, this is, this is an act.
We don't, we don't condone this in real life.
This is all just for silly entertainment purposes.
Yeah, the dancing is just to show how I can have sex with a woman.
Uh, so this is an article from Seven News and they captioned this, this news, you know, with a quote, such a shame and quote, why Wiggles?
Why?
You have betrayed us.
You have betrayed us.
You are, you are not good Wiggles.
They're so mad.
And I'm happy to see there is apparently what I think I'm seeing is a black femme in the Wiggles now.
So it's not, just to clarify, it's not a black thing.
I think this is just because of the gay stuff that Lil Nas X does.
I guess that's why they're mad, right?
Well, let me read the article here, okay?
We don't have to guess, all right?
We don't have to be like these talking heads.
Don't let us know.
Yeah, we're going to the source here, okay?
The Wiggles slam for hinting at, quote, new collab with Lil Nas X, quote, you betrayed us.
This is from Sarah Fiddick.
The Wiggles have been blasted on social media after hinting at, quote, new collab with U.S.
rapper Lil Nas X. The popular children's music group posed for a picture with the controversial American rapper who was holding a purple Wiggles shirt at Falls Festival in Melbourne.
The children's entertainers cheekily captioned the image, new collab in the wind, sparking outrage among furious fans.
So that's that's the collab.
The collab is literally this photograph.
Yeah, and it's like, I think the Lil Nas X would do a feature with the Wiggles if asked, but I don't think that they were asking because I think it was just a t-shirt opportunity.
Because there seems to be one person already in purple, so I think that that role is filled.
I wholeheartedly reject this sort of collab.
I hope it is only a photo because we all know that children's musical entertainment should never be done by rappers and only be done by former ska bands.
Yeah, everybody knows that that's the only way to go about it.
Well, I mean, that's actually, I can't co-sign that because Yo Gabba Gabba was fantastic.
And there were rappers involved.
Yeah, but that's an Aquabats guy.
True, true.
So it was the Aquabats, but it was also like, they also had rappers involved.
Damn, why?
Why Yo Gabba Gabba?
Why?
You betrayed us.
I didn't know there were rappers.
Why did you work with Biz Markie?
Yeah, so this isn't even a real... I love when news articles do, or when news agencies or outlets do articles that are just Minion Death Cult episodes.
They're like, look at all these people's insane reactions to a photograph.
Who are they quoting here?
Who said, why Wiggles, why?
Yeah, okay, so let me read here, Tony.
Quote, such a shame.
My daughter loved the Wiggles.
I don't see how someone who lap dances the devil in their music videos is a good candidate for working in the children's music industry, one infuriated mother wrote.
And see, that's you, Tony, jumping to play the gay card.
Oh, it's because he's gay.
No, it's because he gave a gay lap dance to the devil.
I did forget about him lap dancing for the devil.
That episode we did.
The 23-year-old rapper who is in town on his Australian tour has copped backlash in the past over his controversial music video for his number one hit, Montero, Call Me By Your Name.
Refer back to Whatever episode of Minion Death Cult that is from two years ago or a year ago, whenever that happened.
In the clip, the artist, whose real name is Montero Lamar Hill, rides a stripper pole to hell and gives Satan a lap dance before removing the devil's horns and placing it on his head.
Fans of the Wiggles were left enraged by the idea of the group collaborating with the rapper.
I forgot about that too!
Why are you guys collaborating with someone who worships the devil and put human blood on in his sneakers and sold them?
One unimpressed fan wrote.
I forgot about that too.
I forgot how sick Lil Nas X is actually.
The comment was referencing the rapper's 2021 special edition quote Satan shoes in which a drop of human blood was added to 666 modified Nike sneakers that sold out in less than a minute.
Uh, that's like, it's pretty like, I'm sure Kiss did something similar to that.
You know what I mean?
Like, yeah, it's not, it's not really that edgy.
But that's just, that's the old, that's like the old satanic panic though, you know?
I think Kiss also might have pretended they did something like this, but I think he actually did do it.
I think Kiss, they might have had like lore of them doing something like that, but didn't actually do it.
Where like, they, he really did use real blood.
Led Zeppelin though, fans of the band Led Zeppelin will know that they actually did this promotional stunt where they put a tiger shark inside every single one of their female fans.
What?
I have no clue what that is.
Like a small one, like a sand shark.
You didn't hear about that?
No!
There's an infamous story about Led Zeppelin trashing a hotel room and they caught a shark shore fishing and I think they fucked a groupie with it.
Not good stuff, but it's a story.
I'm so happy to be on the right side of history when it comes to being a Led Zeppelin fan.
I mean, at least hypothetically, that person was an adult, I hope.
Led Zeppelin's done worse stuff to children.
Okay, back to just as great and evil band, The Wiggles.
Quote, Oh dear, you can't be serious.
A second fan said, I'm sorry, but Lil Nas X should have nothing to do with children.
Period.
And that's all, period.
Which provoked a response from another disappointed fan.
I agree, they need to collab with someone who is a good role model for kids and Lil Nas X is not one of them.
I love this idea, this like prudish mentality where if you have sex you're not allowed to talk to children.
It's not cool.
You're not allowed to be around them.
Like, there's no way.
I mean, do they know about how huge Old Town Road is?
Do they know?
What do they think of the videos of him performing to, like, gymnasiums of children?
Yeah, they probably know about that.
They're probably, like, seething about it.
I mean, do they know how children happen?
Do they know how we get children in the first place?
You get them by listening to Old Town Road, Lil Nas X.
That is kind of weird to think that someone has had sex to Old Town Road.
That's a funny song to have on.
Oh, I get it.
For sure.
Another said, Oh no, no, no.
Quote, Oh dear, you can't be serious.
The wiggles should remain a source of light, not dark.
A third concerned fan commented.
Like Lil Nas X, super successful at making people think he's evil.
Yeah, he's pretty fun.
He's a pretty fun entertainer.
He's pretty good.
Yeah.
Like, this is what he wanted from these acts, and it worked so well.
Like, better than he ever probably expected.
Why Lil Nas X?
You were the best of us.
Or, why Wiggles?
You were the best of us.
You had so much promise.
You were the chosen band.
You were the chosen children's act.
Wiggles, how could you go towards the darkness?
It is kind of funny that if you were to talk about the Wiggles without saying what they do and talk about them the way they talk about people, you'd be like, oh, it's pretty fucked up.
It's like this group of adults.
And like every time they perform, they fill the stage with children.
And it's like, it's real.
And the children dance and like sing.
It's real.
It's real weird.
Yeah.
Each of them, they're all, each of them wears a different color of the rainbow, I guess you'd call it.
I prefer my colors not within the rainbow myself.
Yeah.
Yeah, ultraviolet light or else you're a demon.
Okay.
One conspiracy theorist even said, or no, another said, quote, why Wiggles?
Why?
You have betrayed us.
I love that one.
One conspiracy theorist even suggested, quote, they all sold their souls years ago for celebrity and they'll do as they're told.
Yeah, this is actually a contract that was signed so long ago.
Now they have to make up their end of the deal with the devil.
By way of doing collaboration with Lil Nas X. Remember when the Wiggles had integrity as artists?
Before they sold their souls?
The good old days?
Makes me sick to think about, you know?
Back when music was music, before it was all done for all the wrong reasons.
Like, you know, fulfilling your pact with Satan.
I love this conspiracy theory.
I desperately want images of the Wiggles performing.
You know, they're moving around dancing or maybe they're like waving to a fan or something like that and it's just a still image and like their hands kind of accidentally made a triangle together.
Or like, they're like waving up to a fan and their hand is covering their left eye.
You know?
I want to see those screens.
I want to see like 50 of those photographs in like a 300 by 600 pixel image.
I wanna see like 50 of those photographs in like a 300 by 600 pixel image.
That's what I want. - Well, we can do it for them.
Cause if you look, the Wiggles seem, they seem to have a signature, which is like two finger guns.
And you, you tell me what happens when you take two finger guns, bring them together.
Yeah.
They make a triangle.
Yeah.
This is, this is, this is straight up Satan right there.
Finger guns, six shooters, six, six, six.
Yeah.
Wow.
I mean, what if they're like just pointing at their next victims and it's you, the person looking at this.
This is, this is horrifying to think about.
With, with, with, and this, keep in mind they were just with a gay guy.
So, those finger symbols, mixed with being around a gay guy, oof.
The wiggles, I miss the old wiggles.
Okay, here's some responses that I found that I really liked.
We'll see if they live up to Seven News' Melbourne's responses.
Yeah, so this was like one of the top comments.
Anthony said, please name all the wrong things Lil Nas X has done.
And then there's 113 replies.
Oh, don't worry fam, we got receipts.
You thought we didn't bring receipts about Lil Nas X.
I think, I hope that Anthony like knew, knew that they were ready for this and just wanted to, just really baited them.
Uh, but that, yeah, they're, cause they were so stoked.
They were like, let me tell you, bud.
I'm going to be honest.
I didn't read all the, I didn't read through any of these replies, but I hope they like changed Anthony's mind.
Anthony's like, Oh fuck, for real?
Okay.
Oh, Alex has got to go.
Maybe the Wiggles got to go too.
Uh, so I was gonna block out this guy's last name, but his his first and last name are both Dennis on Facebook.
So he's just Dennis Dennis says Lil Nas X is such a good role model for children.
Oh, he spelled role model wrong idiot.
Lil Nas X is such a good role model for children, especially when he twerks on the devil.
So yeah, a lot of people knew what was up.
They didn't want they didn't want uh, The wiggles to get twerked on.
What if Will Not Sex descended a stripper pole, but it was like one of those games where you slide the bead down the real squirrely, like Dr. Seuss type, you know, in the doctor's offices.
It's one of those.
So it's for kids, but he's still like fucking bouncing the whole way down.
It's silly.
It's silly, but it's also still a stripper pole.
That's terrifying to think about.
What they don't realize is Lil Nas X is actually gonna turn the Wiggles into his harem.
That's actually what's happening here.
I mean, by the looks on their faces, I don't know if they would dislike that.
Okay, Sandra said, I think it's scarier that old men are still singing for children.
When they first came out, the mums used to take the kids so the mums could perv at them.
Probably still doing it.
Old man can't sing for kids.
I only like men who I'd fuck to sing to the kids.
These men are too old.
Hey, listen, I wouldn't fuck you.
You better not sing to my kids.
Like, what?
Like, this could be two amazing, different, totally different, because they are totally different responses, but it's... Yeah, it's scarier that old men are singing.
What are you... Listen, ask yourself.
What are you, as an old man, doing singing to a child?
Old men would rather sing to children than go to therapy.
Yeah.
Listen, don't even bother singing to children if I can't flick my bean to it later on.
Like, this is... Mama doesn't get out very much, you know?
I gotta take what I can get.
So I used to come see the Wiggles to watch them wiggle, you feel me?
Yeah.
And now I got these... What was the age cutoff for, you know?
Because they probably had like a milf era where they got away with being a little bit older.
But now they're real old.
When was she like, ew, no thank you?
Yeah, I don't know.
I'm reminded of that John Redcorn episode where he becomes a children's singer and he's just immensely popular.
That's actually a whole arc.
It's not just an episode.
It's a really good arc that I like a lot.
Where he adapts his hair metal songs about wanting to kill himself into children's songs about proper hygiene.
John Redicorn, I mean, I would watch the whole spinoff.
I hope it never happens, but I would watch a whole spinoff.
But did the Wiggles ever look like that?
That's my question.
I think even the Wiggles when they were in their peak, I don't think people were ever, like, horny for them.
I don't know.
We're talking about Australian women though too.
That's like South Africa.
They're into all kinds of weird shit over there.
Have you seen what the cool guys in South Africa look like?
They probably do look like Wiggles.
That's very true.
I'm actually, I think this person's only seen that because I just google imaged the Wiggles.
And I think there's a lot of Wiggles.
I think there's like a young and old cast and crew that kind of goes in and out.
They're like the Blue Man Group?
There's a couple Wiggles who I'd holler at.
I'd holler at today.
I'm seeing some Wiggles.
You know?
Give me the giggles.
No.
So you're like desperately trying to get Penny into the Wiggles.
She's like, Dad, I'm way too old for this.
And you're like, no, it's really good live.
You don't get it over the record because it like flattens everything.
It's bad mix on this one.
We got to go see them live.
They rock.
Yeah.
Listen to this bootleg I actually got of their Madison Square Garden performance.
It's really good.
I think you can catch the energy.
When they first came out the mums used to take the kids so the mums could perv at them.
Probably still doing it.
Those sick fucks.
Those women attracted to Wiggles.
Not me though.
Wait till Sandra discovers wrestling.
This is another one.
I was going to censor the name on Facebook, but their Facebook name is Avidity Roofing.
So it's a roofing company commenting on this 7 News Melbourne Facebook post.
They say this is so about Lil Nas X doing a, quote, collab, taking a photo with the Wiggles.
This is prime material to show you really just how backwards this world is.
Yeah.
Says Avidity Roofing.
It's so fucked up to think that, you know, this TV show would want to collaborate with one of the world's biggest pop stars.
It's just backwards, Tony.
Backwards shit.
Also, we just like have a great selection of shingles.
We're in and out in two days.
We bring all the material to you on the same day we do it.
There's no storing stuff in your yard.
But we just we really need to take back the wiggles for the people also.
This is prime material to show you how backwards things really are, but we got material to make sure there's no leaks and it's efficient and actually will not only hold in the warmth, but also cool down in the summer.
I know the world is going backwards, but I hope we can move forward on this contract and this roofing deal.
Yeah.
Okay, Darcy responds, "What's next?" duo with Putin?
You know, like, who affiliates those two people?
Who's like...
You know who's worse than Lil Nas X?
Putin.
I feel like Lil Nas X is not down for Putin.
Probably not, but they're just both bad people.
Not all bad people are friends with each other, Tony.
That's true, that's true.
And again, I also like that they are, Darcy's kind of showing this isn't just about, this is probably more about the Satan thing than the gay thing.
So that's kind of cool.
I'm happy that we're seeing some progress there.
I think she's more upset with the evil than, um, than, than the gay, because Putin, I don't think Putin's a gay.
So, um, that's not what she's completely mad about.
There's worse things out there.
A duo with Lil Nas X. Oh, who's next?
You gonna ask the former guy to go up there, huh?
Drumpf?
Are you gonna get Drumpf to do the Wiggles with you?
Yeah, yeah.
It's funny because the real course should be like, oh, Lil Nas X, who's next?
Kanye West?
But that's not, they probably would love that.
Yeah, that'd be a step up for sure.
Because he loves Jesus.
And he's never once lapped danced with the devil.
I would not put it past the Wiggles to do a duo with freakin' Putin.
They might fuckin' do it.
It's pretty fucked up.
They might do it.
They might do it with Putin.
When are you going to have a Wiggle that escaped the totalitarian dictatorship of Cuba?
Huh?
When do they get to be in the Wiggles?
Yeah, I want that.
I want someone to speak on the true evils of communism.
Oh, dude, Wiggle's Shen Yun collab win.
That shit would go off, though.
That would be so cool.
Hey, everybody, this Saturday, let's wiggle to the beauty of China before communism.
Are you are you picturing the billboard?
It's so good.
Wiggles and Shenouen, I think it's going to be really cool.
Because I think one of the downfalls is they don't use primary colors in their dancing.
I think if they use primary colors, it would work better for them.
It would just add so much to it.
You keep the pastels, the pinks, the breezy colors, and then you add the solid foundational colors as well.
I haven't even entertained the idea of the Wiggles wearing pastels.
I mean the options here are just amazing.
I'm excited.
You know in China they've actually banned wiggling.
Oh no.
Oh no.
I've heard that they've actually, yeah, they programmed all the cameras monitoring to watch to make sure you're not gyrating in a particular fashion.
If it resembles wiggling, the state will come down on you.
Well, it's in your phone's motion sensor.
It's in all of ours.
We all have a little like equilibrium, like an inner ear for your phone now.
And so they know if you're wiggling for sure.
This is for sure not, this is a wiggle, this has got to be a wiggle.
I can tell by the twos and threes, it's what it is.
Yeah, and this goes, this is happening over here in America too.
The elite, they're trying to prevent you from wiggling around, from being wriggly, from getting loose.
Because you know what happens when you get loose?
Your muscles work better.
You get better blood flow to your extremities.
Your limbs don't fall asleep.
Therefore, you're better able to resist a tyrannical government.
This is true.
I agree with that.
They're trying to stop us to wiggle to keep us weak.
Yeah, this makes sense.
I'm not even joking.
This is like a real theory I have.
Not about China, but about society.
Society does not want you to wiggle.
They don't want you loose and limber.
No, they hate to see you wiggle.
Go ahead, go ahead, go out in public, go out in public and give it a good wiggle and see how people fucking look at you.
See how you're judged.
And this is, okay, this is, it's a scary thing to broach on this, on this show, but I hope you guys can take this comment in good faith.
There is a sort of, uh, a negative result on big people because, like, I mean like tall people.
Like, oh, you know, tall privilege this, tall privilege that.
Well, you know how much more room it takes me to get wiggly?
Because I'm 6'4"?
Yeah.
Think about my feet.
I can't just wiggle these feet.
Can I go on the subway and get wiggly?
No.
No way.
No way.
I mean, also, you gotta understand the space that you're taking up.
And then you're gonna be wiggling it?
Yeah, people don't wanna see that because all they can picture when they see people like you or I wiggling, All they see is like basically us winding up for violence.
Yeah.
And they're not wrong.
Limber aged males, like limber military males is what they see us as.
There we go.
Limber military males is what they see us at when we're stretching and getting loose and feeling good.
Yeah.
That's a threat.
It's a threat to them.
They love hearing us complain about our sciatic, but they don't want to see us wiggle.
Yeah, because if your enemy is like 6'4", 6'5", 6'3", or whatever, what's the best thing you can do?
You get them to have a narrow stance.
And then you can just push them over.
And that's also why they keep you on your phones.
keep you on their phones to fuck up your posture. - Mm-hmm . - You know, this is, yep.
So everybody wiggle.
Everyone needs to wiggle more.
Think about how silly you look when you're wiggling.
This isn't just for big, big people.
Think about how silly you look when you're wiggling.
Think about like the brainwashing society has done to you to make it seem weird that that guy's crouching.
No, that's just how your body works.
That's what you're supposed to do.
But they want you to think that that's cringe because they want you to bend over at the waist to pick something up, which could be really hurtful for your lower back, lead to problems later in life.
And it's just not as effective, not as stable.
You're less good at picking stuff up.
Yeah.
You'd be surprised how many things you actually don't need to team lift if you just don't know how to lift correctly.
But they want you to think that you can't do anything about yourself too.
The whole thing is just fucked up.
Never be afraid to call a second driver to your location to help you lift something.
Never be afraid to get another pair of union hands on the job.
Never hesitate for that.
But yeah, think about wiggling your hips back and forth.
That's so good for your hips.
But what?
That looks silly, dude.
What are you doing that for?
See, think about it.
That's all I'm saying.
We can move on, but I just want people to think about it.
A cop wiggled the date.
Did you?
Uh, I, yeah, that's like, I mean, shit.
That's the thing is they don't.
They don't wiggle either, but they all just have guns.
So.
Yeah.
Okay.
Uh, Milan says, uh, tags Joseph in these responses and says, please don't do this to our kids.
Elites at work.
Is, is Joseph one of the wiggles?
I don't think Joseph was one of the Wiggles.
I think maybe it was somebody else who's a fan of the Wiggles.
Don't do this to our kids!
Should I look up real quick to see if this is a Wiggle?
I didn't check.
Yeah, maybe.
I think he's right.
The kids can resist the wiggles now, but if they can't resist the power of the lure of the wiggles with Lil Nas X. Don't do this to our kids.
Please don't.
Do they think that Lil Nas X would do this collaboration and make a raunchy song with the Wiggles?
It'd probably be great, right?
It'd probably be positive and good.
Yeah.
It'd probably be about brushing your teeth.
When you google collaboration, you only find the Lil Nas X thing.
And apparently they did play a song with someone from Tame Impala.
But that's it.
Yeah, I saw that comment.
Well, that guy's Australian.
He's an Australian guy making rock music.
He's probably a bad guy.
No, I'm just kidding.
Okay.
They were just tagging two different people, like two different of their friends.
Like, we have to put a stop to this.
Please don't do this to our kids.
Elites at work.
Yeah.
You know, like the thing about a lot of people, like their social media literacy is not, is like totally different.
They interact with social media and you, and have a grammar that's, I mean, obviously, but I'm saying like a, like when they tag somebody and then comment, they're just want them to see the comment they make.
They're not like talking to them, you know what I mean?
So they're just exclaiming into the void, like into the zeitgeist.
Please don't do this to our kids!
Elites at work!
Am I right, Joseph?
And such and such, right?
You know, can you like this comment for me?
They're not pleading to Joseph to stop doing it.
They just want Joseph to know that they want to have more kids.
It's pretty fucking silly.
Elites at work.
This is what the elites want.
They want Lil Nas X to...
What, join the Wiggles so he has access to teaching kids about Satan?
Like you said, Tony, what are they going to do?
What is the elite's plan here to put Lil Nas X in the Wiggles?
They can write a song about how, like, hey, listen, you little kid, have you thought about being gay?
It's what I did, and I got to meet Satan.
That's going to be the song.
Whoa.
Well, you have to have an earlier song that explains that Satan's cool.
So you lay that groundwork.
Yeah.
Then you say, oh, if you're gay, then you get to meet that guy.
It's just a song about how like, how he's like Lil Nas is saying, I'm exponentially richer since I did give Satan a lap dance.
I don't, I'm not saying that's the causation, but I'm saying the fact of the matter is now have more money than before the lap dance.
So think about it, kids.
Yeah, yeah.
I think it would work.
Last comment here.
Rick.
Who has Rick from Rick and Morty as his avatar.
And it's not just Rick.
It's the, like, Obama Obey.
Or not Obey.
What does he say?
Hope.
The Obama Hope in the Obey style artwork.
But it's Rick.
It's Rick Sanchez from Rick and Morty.
Is that probably what the word under it probably says?
It probably just says Rick, huh?
No, I don't I think this guy's this guy's like a tattoo artist.
This was like his real page.
So I think it's just a coincidence that he has this first name Rick and it's an awesome coincidence because then he gets to he probably did this himself.
He probably designed this one himself because I don't have it here.
But his cover photo was a bunch of different like pop art skateboards like skateboards with Cartoon characters on each one of them, you know, like Rick and Morty.
I think there maybe was a family guy maybe But so, you know, this is gonna be an intelligent comment is basically what I mean Rick says it's about pushing an agenda.
You'll figure it out I'm not I'm not gonna tell you don't worry.
You'll figure it out on your own.
when they say like this, I'm not, I'm not going to tell you, don't worry.
You'll, you'll figure it out on your own.
Yeah.
I mean, sometimes a rock has to hit a head a few times before he looks up, you know?
And, like, what's the agenda besides, you know, probably making a lot of money?
Probably making a lot of paper off of a collaboration between the two of them.
Yeah, I don't... It's so weird.
It's such, like, grasping at straws to me.
Yeah.
To be like, oh, this is the elite's agenda.
They're gonna get a guy who did sexy songs Uh, to indoctrinate our kids into sexiness.
What?
I'm sorry.
I don't, I don't think so.
Okay.
Lil Nas X already kind of makes music for children.
That's kind of the thing.
Yeah.
Well, they were super mad about that.
If you remember.
Yeah.
Very mad.
True.
They're not happy about that.
And now their beloved Wiggles have taken the bait.
Frogs. Mimit. Mimit. Mimit.
Frogs are our friends.
And we all like them.
And you should show your mom and dad.
Frogs are our friends.
No need to preach.
We've heard a lot lately about how great Avatar is, right?
How great Avatar 2 is.
It seems like we've been hearing from nobody except just the biggest Avatar 2 Way of Water fans, and how great it is.
A cinematic triumph.
And I thought, well, I think it's about time we hear from the other side.
Let him know.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm kind of, I'm kind of tired of it.
I kind of need to hear, I just want to hear both sides.
I think it, I think we need to have people, both sides need to be heard here.
I think it's a representation support in here.
We've heard what the coastal elites have to say.
We've heard what the, what do you call it, contrarians in Florida have had to say.
It's time to hear what real America has to say about Avatar 2 The Way of Water.
So when Avatar first came out, the Daily Wire posted for like five to six days about what a huge failure it was.
Because it didn't break a certain number in its opening week.
It didn't get like 500 million instead of only 300 or 400 million, whatever it got.
I think it was like maybe two, they thought it was gonna get 200 million and it only got 160 million or whatever.
And there were so many people in the comments were like, go woke, go broke, another Disney failure.
And it was very funny to see, yeah.
Cause it's still like, it's still broke like every record, right?
It's still... Not on opening weekend.
It didn't break.
Exactly, but not within the way that... Yeah.
There's... They get to be like, oh look, you didn't do as good as you could have.
You just did do amazing.
Yeah, that's so funny.
Yeah and then you'll get people who when when somebody is like uh that's still a lot of money isn't it isn't 160 million whatever it is uh i think that's a lot of money and they'll be like actually what it costs to produce this movie is going to do nothing but lose money you know uh because it was an expensive movie to make but uh
Yeah it got to the point Avatar is doing so well financially that it got to the point where both Fox News and Daily Wire had to find a way to do clickbait articles about the movie they said was a massive failure and I think the Daily Wire's was Ben Shapiro just going What?
It was like Avatar beats Top Gun in whatever sales figure and his caption was like, huh?
No, like shocked, like surprised.
It's funny because I didn't realize the fact that they hate it so much makes me like it more, obviously.
It's just like it's working for me.
And that makes me think, oh, I guess there's something here, something like effective about this movie.
I still haven't seen it.
But like the fact that they're doing that, trying so hard to make it look bad, like makes me really like it already.
It's interesting because There's such a better narrative, um, for them if they, if they subscribe to James Cameron thought, you know, because they could say, oh, he did his own vision.
He didn't let Disney interact or, you know, whatever.
He's this, he's this single solitary gargantuan figure at the top of an enterprise, you know, whatever, yada, yada, yada.
But, um, no, they backed themselves into like, oh, he equals Disney.
Like that's how they, Choose to talk about it.
They also did so many negative articles about Kate Winslet recently, right-wing media.
So James Cameron did an interview where he talked about how he thinks he traumatized Kate Winslet because it was like during Titanic, filming Titanic, because it was a really bad shoot.
It was a really hard shoot where they were in water half the time and shit like that.
So he said, oh, she was traumatized from Titanic.
Right-wing media took that quote, like multiple outlets took that quote.
Kate Winslet, quote, was traumatized, end quote, during filming the Titanic.
And then the thumbnail was just a photo of Kate Winslet.
So they took a quote from James Cameron and, you know, implied that it was Kate Winslet talking about her own experience filming the Titanic, which, first of all, who gives a fuck if she did say she was traumatized by filming that awful movie?
Like, the way it was filmed sounds awful, you know, a good movie and all that, but just, oh my god.
But they made it sound like, oh wow, princess complaining to be a movie star, I guess.
Oh, it's traumatizing.
Why don't you go work at the farm like I did growing up.
See how you feel after that.
Oh, sorry you had to make millions of dollars.
So sorry you had to spend weeks in the ocean to make millions of dollars.
Sorry you got to hang out with Leonardo DiCaprio?
Oh, I'm so sorry.
Here, why don't you give me your riches and I'll also take the trauma from you, okay?
I'll also take the mental anguish.
I'll take that right off your hands.
Yeah, this is actually just my way to get into the pussy posses.
We can get close to Leo.
We'll be best friends pretty instantly.
I told Ani that we were watching Spider-Man.
And he did something and I was like, see that's the move that got him into the Pussy Posse.
And Ani was like, what?
I'm sorry, what did you say?
Look up the Pussy Posse, folks.
Amazing.
I mean, you probably, they're so cool that you probably won't even get any not safe for work results like on your first hit.
It'll probably be the real pussy posse.
Yeah, that's how cool they are.
Definitely the sickest crew ever.
So I don't know what right-wing media's beef with James Cameron is.
I mean, I know he's, what, he's like an environmentalist maybe?
I don't...
I mean obviously his political leanings seem to be to the left, or seem to be anti-imperialist.
But, like, they don't know that.
You know?
That's not what they're complaining about for the most part.
So, I think it's the Disney thing.
I think they just knew he was releasing a movie on Disney, and they're in their, like, 16th month of their anti-Disney jihad.
So, they're like, okay, here's the newest Disney movie.
Like, they took apart that Strange Worlds
movie they've been making fun of that strange worlds movie for like a month now because of how badly it did at the box office but it seemed isn't it just like released straight to do you know what movie i'm talking about um yeah i'm looking it up because i don't even know anything about it right it's i think it went like straight to disney plus but it features like their first openly gay or bought or bi character so okay
They're making fun of the movie for tanking because there's a bi-character in it.
When you and I would never know that there was a movie, let alone a bi-character in your movie.
Yeah like I kind of looks kind of familiar now but I mean this is a movie that is available now on Disney plus I have a nine-year-old child who loves like adventure type things like this looks like this isn't I had no clue that it existed so yeah that's definitely not definitely wasn't because of that like yeah it was just a streaming movie so that's like of course the box office that's not where they're planning on making money anyway um
So I guess, yeah, I guess it's just because of a Disney movie thing that they were like trying to make fun of Avatar for flopping.
And I was like, okay, that's funny, but it's not like good enough to do a story on, to do a segment on.
But then this response, yeah, Ben Shapiro's, huh?
That response is pretty good.
But Fox News, this is Fox News' post about this.
The headline is, new quote, top gun.
recent release surpasses Tom Cruise's 2022 hit at box offices and then there's a thumbnail of Tom Cruise and then in the caption it says the film beat out Top Gun Maverick by about 1 million dollars in sales So they've said Tom Cruise's name in here.
They've said Top Gun twice in this, and you're like, what?
Okay, there's another sequel to Top Gun already?
All right.
Interesting.
That was fast.
No, they're talking about Avatar.
They're talking about Avatar, but they don't say the name of the movie or put an image in the thumbnail.
We got a lot of responses to this because I was fascinated by it.
I don't know if I'm gonna be able to get to them all, but it was just... I loved this comment section.
I loved this area of the internet.
I forgot how proud they were of Top Gun.
They, like, love Top Gun.
That's their movie.
Yeah, yeah.
That was another thing that they were all on about was how great the anti-woke Top Gun... Did you know there are no pronouns in that movie?
Fuuuck.
That's...
Oh, not even, not even fighter jet?
Yeah, not even Apache helicopter.
They don't even say that in there.
Uh, no.
Yeah.
Tom, Tom Cruise wouldn't allow it.
He said, no.
Uh, the director wanted, he was like, Tom, our modern day audiences, they're going to need, they're going to expect to hear pronouns.
It's going to sound weird if they don't hear it.
And he said, Nope.
Sorry.
Jesse responds.
Top gun was the bomb.
I wouldn't watch Avatar woke garbage.
Yo, let's get some dubs in the chat for Top Gun.
Let's get some Top Guns in the chat, please.
Fucking big ups to Top Gun.
This guy's just like, no, I only like real stunts.
I only like real things.
I don't like CGI.
I fucking hate the CGI bullshit.
Bring real film back.
Yeah, totally.
Listen, I haven't seen Top Gun.
I heard it's good.
I don't care.
The only reason I care or I think it's interesting about Avatar making so much money is because that means there's going to be another Avatar.
I can't wait to see it you know that's like the you know Disney didn't need two billion dollars like Avatar is gonna make for them uh but I I'm glad they're I'm gonna help them get there and then I'm gonna see the next one when it comes out.
Yeah I mean like he did fly a jet though he really flew that jet so that was the bomb.
Did he fly it?
I know he was in it but did he fly it?
I think so.
I think he like... That's sick.
Did some of the flying.
That's so cool.
You can't say that's not cool.
Yeah, he like really is going all in on the like, I do all my stunts, everything.
Well, he's trying to top it.
Yeah, he's been doing that for a while.
Yeah, he just wants to die, I think, on set.
I think so, yeah.
Which, I mean, I respect that.
Okay.
This was on foxnews.com.
Hashtag all white TV comments when quote.
Okay.
So this he's fake all hashtag all white TV has figured out how to do like either HTML or BB code in the comments.
So he has bolded words here, but they're also in all caps.
So like, how do I pronounce that?
I think, I mean, do you just be louder?
That's not gonna, it's got to be something else.
So I have to be loud because it's all caps, but then like a sarcastic accent that seems more like italics.
Bold just seems loud again, like you're saying, Tony.
I don't, I can't, I don't want to go much louder.
I don't think I can.
Maybe it's not loud.
Maybe it's also bassy.
Maybe it's, maybe there's more of a bass to it.
I can't, I can't do that.
Um, yeah, I'm just gonna, I'm just gonna, yeah, you'll, you'll know, you'll know what I'm doing.
Okay.
Hashtag all white TV, but I think that means they want all white too.
That's like their campaign they're on.
Yeah.
That's, I think that's what they're looking for here.
That's like the movement.
Uh, okay.
When quote, quote, adults make cartoon movies, the largest grossing movies, you know, our society has failed dot, dot, dot, dot, It took me a second to figure out what they're saying here.
They're saying if adults are the reason that cartoon movies are successful, then society has failed.
I don't think they know anything about how capitalism works.
Anytime a cartoon movie has been the top grossing movie, no matter if it's for kids or not, that's been because of adults.
Kids don't spend money.
That's a thing that just doesn't happen.
Like, what was top grossing for Sleeping Beauty?
Like, how many adults went to see one of the first feature-length animated presentation?
You know what I mean?
It's like exclusively for adults.
And then, yeah, it's probably only recently that they started making actual theatrical movies for children.
But yeah, this is one criticism of Avatar is that it's a cartoon movie.
Let me pull up this other... Yeah, John says, I'm an adult.
I don't watch cartoons.
Except for Family Guy.
No, no, John.
John's a jokester.
John is using a fake profile picture.
This is also burnic.
This is too good.
Well, John's doing it for one like, and so you got to appreciate it.
Yeah, I love it.
I love it.
John has like a forward fishing hat on or like a baseball cap and aviator sunglasses with croquis on the back of him.
And he's looking straight at the camera saying, I don't watch cartoons except for Family Guy.
Yeah, yeah.
They make risque jokes.
I like those jokes they make on Family Guy.
I laugh a lot.
It's the most adult cartoon out there.
That's the one I watch as a mature male in American stock.
This guy's like older too.
I do forget that there are like older people in their like 40s and 50s who are watching Family Guy.
Like that's how long it's been around now.
I do forget that's a thing because I look at John I think that he would be a you know a Simpsons head you know?
But um no.
He only watches Family Guy.
Man I can only imagine how Family Guy would take down Avatar.
That would be something.
That'd probably be freaking sweet.
Are you picturing blue Peter right now?
Yeah, that would be the easy way to do it.
Just have him be like, say, I'm going to go live on Pandora, Lois.
Yeah, yeah.
And be mad because his body is still his body.
It's just blue.
Like when he goes into the when he goes into the the Oh, the actual avatar?
Yeah.
Oh, so you think it would be... You think it would be real?
You think he'd actually get to Pandora and the show?
Oh, I found it.
I found it.
I found... I found Peter as an avatar.
As an image?
It says... The caption says... The caption says, FATATAR.
I saw a worse one, Tony.
I saw a way worse one in the Daily Wire comment section that I wasn't going to bring up on the show, but since we're here, let me pull it up.
I don't think I can say this on the show.
I think it would be too awful.
Oh, no.
Oh, yeah, you can't.
You can't.
Yeah.
No, you can't show that on the show.
No, that's that's.
Why is this?
I copy.
I try to copy the link to you, but it's not.
That's right.
I don't need I don't need to see.
I don't need to see.
I can picture it.
Yeah.
All right.
Civil War 2020 in the Fox News comments section on Fox News dot com.
Civil War 2020.
It's a minions law.
The commenter.
Built into the name.
Good.
I like that.
Efficient.
This movie had a lot of cultural appropriation and no alphabet people.
Take note, Disney.
So they think the reason this movie did good was because of the cultural appropriation.
And also there weren't any gay people allowed in Pandora.
Oh, so they're talking about Avatar.
That it has lots of cultural appropriation and no alphabet people.
So they want Disney to do more of that, they're saying.
More cultural appropriation.
Okay, cool, alright.
Bring back Pocahontas.
Yeah, they're saying, no, it did.
It did well because it was reactionary.
It was a reactionary movie.
So keep it up, Disney.
Traitor Bob 1953 replies about the movie.
It said, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, white man bad.
And that's that's a more accurate.
See, but I will say, depicted in the movie as part of the corporation, as part of this corporate military colonial force, It was a beautiful spectrum of colors and genders.
You haven't seen it yet, Tony, but plenty of the personal submarine operators who were like trying to hunt down the whale, the hyper-intelligent space whale, were like women of color.
There were women in leadership roles.
One of the best characters is, what's her name, from Nurse Jackie.
She's the general.
She's like the evil general, but she's great in it.
You know what I mean?
It's like he depicted a woke military.
Maybe not woke, but it's like a multicultural, multi-gender, pluralistic, Military force that's acting on behalf of capitalism and American national interests.
Like many times in these conversations around things like race in America, sometimes the conversation does become a conversation of black and white, where it is black people, Afro-Latino people, people who are visually black, and then other being white as in anybody else.
So imagine applying that to, like, to the Na'vi, To where, yeah, it doesn't matter if you are, you know, uh, if you are black, white, red, or purple, if you're not blue, you are white.
So I do understand.
Yeah.
White man VAT is what they were saying.
No matter what you think you saw, those were still white men operating that, that, uh, submarine.
Yeah.
It shows how like other people of other parts, possibly marginalized cultures, uh, can, can get suckered into anti-blueness.
Yeah, yeah.
It's real easy.
It's out there.
It's toxic.
Damn, what else was I gonna say?
Oh, and also it depicts racism among our avatar family when they go to live with the Reef tribe.
The Reef tribe, they make fun of their skinny tails.
They make fun of their tails that aren't suited for swimming.
And they also make fun of like their lack of fins and how they can't hold their breath.
But then they all learn to get along.
So it's also woke in that sense, too.
I like that.
Yeah, JimShadow715, there were so many of these stupid comments.
JimShadow says, not my type of movie.
Not into blue, people!
Yeah, I mean...
They just freak them out.
They're not supposed to be that way.
I can't watch that on TV.
I didn't watch Black Panther 2 either.
I didn't watch Smurfs either.
I didn't watch any of these blue people films.
Casper!
I didn't even care for Casper.
The tint on the ghost was too blue for me.
Yeah, actually it's ableist for you to accuse me of being racist against blue people.
It's because of my neurodivergency that I just happen to get really nervous around blue people.
You know, when they're a little too close or they're higher numbers due to my neurodivergence.
Yeah, it's not my fault.
I can't control the things I've been taught about blue people.
It's not my fault.
It's out of my control.
Very rude of you.
Zugdog says Debbie Does Dallas made only $400,000 Good little good info.
It's actually more money than I thought they would have made Considering how much movies made in that era anyways let alone a pornographic film The little movie that could, you know?
It's an uplifting story, and it's like, it shows that, hey, money's not everything, baby.
I mean, I'd watch my triple D's any day over some, oh, wow, it costs, how much to make?
Then you know it's good.
I don't think so.
Debbie got paid about 20 bucks an hour for that movie, okay?
And it was gold.
You want to hear a really sad truth?
I'm over here Googling Debbie Does Dallas.
And Debbie Does?
Dallas has not come up.
Design, Demons, Donuts, The Dog, Deuteronomy, Dandelion, Disney, Demons, Trailer.
Those all come up.
Debbie Does Dallas has not come up.
Like, I don't know what, what has this country gone, like, where have we gone?
Oh, it's sad.
Yeah, the kids don't want to watch Debbie Does Dallas anymore.
They just don't want to watch it anymore.
Millennials aren't, what, pirating Debbie Does Dallas?
I guess you could get that on iMovie.
Can you rent it?
Because it's not like an actual porno, right?
No, I think it actually is.
I think that's why it's not on YouTube.
Okay, I must be thinking of, like, the biggest little whorehouse in Texas.
That one's, I think, not a porno.
But yeah, but it's like, so where would you, can you buy it?
Can you buy a copy?
Are they still releasing them on DVD?
Like, how could you watch, anyway, okay, not that important.
My Dark Passenger comments, go woke, dot dot, and not broke?
Hmm?
What?
What's happening?
Scott says, distorted perspective.
After Top Gun has been showing eight months and many have already seen it, Avatar now can barely beat it.
What?
I don't understand this logic.
I think he might be confusing gross sales with a weekend box office.
He thinks either of these movies made $1.5 billion in one weekend.
And they're probably also thinking like, and the year's over, so they don't even have eight months to make it up.
They can't even do that.
There's a lot of really fun logic in these.
People were saying, oh no, actually Top Gun Maverick is the highest grossing movie of 2022 still because Avatar was only in theaters for a month.
Okay, so everything after January counts towards 2023 when you're ranking the top performing movies.
It's like that's not how, that's not how it works at all.
You can only count money within a calendar year for a movie.
So dumb.
So dumb.
that's what they were trying to say.
- So dumb, so dumb. - Linda Junkin, and that's her middle name is Junkin.
So I left it in.
It's not quite, I'm still possibly doxing her, but.
- Oh, you left the Junkin? - I left the Junkin and it's such a good middle name.
I had to keep it.
I like it.
I would have kept it too.
I would have put it right up there on Facebook.
Yeah, I'm putting a middle name in here because it's Junkin.
Funny I read the other day that Avatar is a dismal failure.
Interesting.
And this is the type of interesting, uh, like Elon Musk replies to people with just when he's, uh, extremely confused.
He just goes.
Interesting.
Or like, you don't know what to say.
You don't know what your opinion is yet.
So you just say, hmm.
But you're also doing it in a way where you're saying like, I don't believe you.
I don't believe that.
Maybe I think I think she's genuinely confused.
I think this is like because it's Fox News.
It's not CNN.
It's Fox News writing this article.
So yeah, interesting.
And then.
Fiona replies.
Oh, but it didn't perform as well as hoped is what I heard given the price tag So this is what I'm talking about.
Yeah, sure.
It made hundreds of millions of dollars but According to according to the the losses on the movie as as given by the quarterly state, you know, shut the fuck up But yeah, you read that Avatar was a dismal failure in a headline, and then didn't look at any of the actual content of it.
But, it worked.
Hey, it worked.
Levin says, I have a hard time belie- This is a brand new comment, brand new reply.
So many of the replies were like this.
I have a hard time believing that.
All the talk about Top Gun and nothing for Avatar.
Hell, I didn't know it existed until it was said how bad it tanked.
Like, it's that thing too, where it's like, me and all my friends are only talking about Top Gun.
Yeah.
None of my friends are talking about Avatar, so therefore it's not, there's no way this is a real thing.
It, yeah, I love that.
So, so stupid.
We all went as Maverick on Halloween.
Where, where was the Na'vi?
I didn't see anybody as a Na'vi.
I didn't see, I didn't see one Na'vi.
We were all, we were all, all of us, I mean, a couple people were Goose.
It didn't really make sense.
I, actually, I don't know if that's a thing in the new movie.
Oh, shit.
He died, right?
He's been dead.
Goose's son.
He's been dead.
The sequel came back to kill Goose's son, I think.
The son of Goose, wow.
Just kill off the lineage completely.
I think Miles Teller's Goose?
Again, I haven't seen it.
Okay, on Halloween night when we were all dressed up as Maverick, remember we deafened that guy?
We thought he was Vietnamese.
Maybe he was a Na'vi.
that that's possible that's possible did have a tail yeah he had a tail so we thought he was uh asian of some kind yeah again bill replies i just to the story about avatar beating top gun maverick i doubt it it's been out what a month Yeah, that's how badly it beat Top Gun Maverick, dude.
I love that, it's so stupid.
No, there's no way that... Top Gun has 7 months lead on this.
There's no way they caught up yet.
It's impossible.
Yeah, you're right in that aspect, you fucking idiot.
Yeah, and the next sentence.
And it supposedly didn't do well at all the first week.
Yeah, again, like, it's so funny, you know, this is like petty shit to harp on on the show, but it's like, hundreds of thousands of people read the implied headline, the implied story that Avatar was a dismal failure because it didn't break a box office record on its opening weekend.
Like, maybe it could've, maybe it might've, or whatever.
And everybody just thinks it was a dismal failure now.
Yeah.
And they're all, they're all like, what the frick?
And it's that mentality too, where it's like, I know I looked it up and it told me that it did really well, but I, supposedly I've heard otherwise.
I've heard otherwise from what the information I could find.
Uh, Marcia, Marcia says, I think this is BS.
No way the anti-Americans are going to let a patriotic movie beat out their woke movies.
I cried.
I laughed.
Top Gun Maverick was an awesome movie, in my opinion.
No doubt!
She was, like, replying to herself.
No doubt, sister.
This is funny.
This is one of those things where it's like, my enemy's so powerful.
Like, there's no way that... Of course Avatar's gonna beat Top Gun.
Top Gun was too good.
Like, these woke people are not gonna allow Top Gun to rise to the top.
Yeah, and it's actually even there.
The amount they did make is even more astounding, given like everything that was against them, against Top Gun.
You know, it makes it's like, wow, if you were adjusting for anti-conservative inflation in Hollywood, would have made twice as much money.
Yeah.
Uh, yeah, no way the anti-Americans are going to let a patriotic movie beat out their woke movies.
They fucking gamed the system.
The, the box office is rigged because yeah, they stood the woke Americans, the anti-Americans, they stood too much to lose.
If Top Gun stayed the number one movie of 2022, there's too much at stake.
This is so good.
Dylan says, hmm, I'm starting to see record profits in a lot of different industries.
Dot, dot, dot, dot.
I'm starting to think it's due to inflation making our money worth less and less rather than a big achievement.
I love it when monetary theory makes its way into your anti-Avatar comment section here on Fox News.
That's funny, because Avatar is doing well.
I see a lot of other things are also making money, too.
And they seem to be more expensive.
What's that about?
I love it.
Corporations are making record profits.
Industries are reporting record profits.
But at the same time, the cost for me, the consumer, is going up.
What the heck's going on?
Oh, I think the reason they're making so much money now is because they're charging us so much money?
You're saying it!
You're saying the thing right in the comment.
I don't know how to disentangle what your comment is from the reality.
You're right.
You're just calling it inflation.
Yeah, and like you're somehow pinning this on wokeness instead of like corporate greed.
Pinning it on wokeness and probably Joe Biden, you know, it's probably like the Democrats are causing inflation or whatever, but the companies are still making record profits.
But because of inflation, that means the corporations, they're not really making that much money.
They're not the ones benefiting from this.
You know, I do bizarre stuff out of their hands.
Yeah.
Kevin says, well, I mean, the audience is more centered around fantasy now.
Men are softer and action slash masculinity is not as important to young people today to each their own, I guess.
Shrug, shrug, shrug.
Yeah, they just don't care anymore.
They like they want to see they want to see blue aliens instead of seeing manly men like Tom Cruise.
There was like maybe one fighting scene in the Avatar.
haven't seen them you haven't seen the movie again uh or at all i mean but um there was like maybe one fighting scene in the avatar there was like maybe one short scene of like aggressiveness but it happens in the background like off to the side but i clocked it immediately being like a masculine guy myself i was like oh shit there there's the one masculine scene the one aggressive the one action scene in the whole movie
most of it is just them intertwining their ponytail tentacles with each other um super cuddling they call it super cuddling in the movie and that's it's kind of like a cuddle simulator the whole thing yeah yeah Yeah, that's what I've heard about.
I've heard about Avatar.
I heard there's nothing cool happens.
I heard like that the last like the last like 45 minutes.
Is that just them like making a vision board?
Like that's that's I don't know if I want to see I want to see fucking jets, bro.
Yeah, no, they there's no action.
There's no fighting.
There's no like violence or anything like that.
They answer a lot of emails.
There's a lot of Zoom meetings.
Okay, last comment.
This is from Scott, who's an Army guy.
His photo, his avatar, I guess you'd call it, his profile pic, is a collage of his service photos.
And Scott says, Again, replying to a Fox News story about how Avatar 2 The Way of Water has beaten Top Gun's gross sales.
Scott says, yeah, no problem at the border either.
Dot dot dot.
How is it verified?
Well, he's saying like, oh, yeah, sure.
Does a does a bear shit in the woods?
You know, but it's like, oh, yeah.
Oh, Avatar beat Top Gun.
Yeah.
And I'm yeah, I'm sure.
Just like there's no absolutely no problem at our southern border.
Yeah, I.
He's like, everything's a lie.
I'm sure.
I'm sure.
Because we know that there's a problem at the border and therefore there's no way that like, Avatar did better than Top Gun.
Come on.
Think about it.
There's just like, a long, a long list of examples of them doing fake news.
How is it verified?
Dot dot dot.
I don't know anyone who was paid to see it.
Dot dot dot dot.
Maybe sanctuary cities are just using theaters to house millions of people dot dot dot dot and torturing them dot dot dot until they conform dot space dot dot and then dot dot.
Is that what happened?
You can tell us.
This is a safe space.
Did you did you get corralled in the theater and then tortured until you promised that you would go outside and sing the praises of Avatar?
Is that what happened?
He thinks there's like, I don't, is this a joke?
Is, maybe he's joking, but you can tell that he's like, the intent is, is there.
This is like, uh, there's a, there's a grain of truth in his mind at the center of this joke.
Uh, that they're housing undocumented immigrants in theaters in order to boost the sales of Avatar 2.
That must be what it is.
That makes sense.
Because the cops, the cops are going to be looking for, they're going to be like, there's people going in and out of this theater every day.
And yet we've seen the receipts.
They're actually, they're, they're not making any money on movies.
And the theater, you know, the theater has to be like, no, we're, we've actually, we're selling, you know, this is just a money laundering scheme.
They're just funneling money through the theater to pretend pay for Avatar 2 Way of Water tickets.
It's funny because I'm like, hey, is it sold out?
And they're like, the seats are full.
And I'm like, but it's sold out.
They're like, all the seats are full.
They just won't answer.
It seems cryptic.
I'm pretty sure it's because they're housing immigrants.
Yeah, I think this guy has probably kicked over some water jugs in his time.
Oh, no doubt, no doubt.
Probably really dramatically, like, cut them, slice them open.
Yeah, he, like, fucking got, like, on his arms and knees and, like... Yeah, stabbed him.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, uh, yeah.
So, uh, it's kind of crazy to have it.
It's pretty funny that Avatar beat Top Gun so quickly because that was such a huge deal.
Like you said, Tony, they wouldn't shut the fuck up about Top Gun, uh, for a while.
Man.
Incredible.
I still didn't see Top Gun and I didn't see Avatar.
And then we need to come back to this.
I'm sorry.
Sorry I couldn't bring that, that, that, that, you know, professional journalism to the table today.
