@Huntracony 5 лет назад

@@cl759 First of all, if you've read my comment you've already read the joke, so it's not like I ruined it somehow. Second, the joke was just a merging of USSR and USA, but considering the S's and U's mean something different in both of them, I genuinely wanted to explore how they'd come together, as you could come up with many interpertations. Third, it's a throwaway comment that's not hurting anyone. Fourth, telling someone what is or isn't poor form is also poor form, as it's subjective.

Is it really 'happy' with that minor 3rd in the ascent, though? Perhaps he was simplifying his explanation for the audience.

@SeanSMST 9 месяцев назад

@zbr76 In a comedic musical show, I have an assumption that explaining what a minor 3rd is, let alone diminish, and intervals, may be a bit much for a likely unmusical crowd to understand. I'm just hazarding a guess tho, who really knows right?

@drsch 5 лет назад

In what way?

@joshburns1777 5 лет назад

drschplatt it references the widely circulated accusations that Russia and Putin colluded with Trump and/or the Trump campaign to ensure that Trump won the US presidency. The implication of these accusations is that if they are true, then Trump must secretly be acting in the interests of Russia or even acting under their orders as a Russian puppet, because Russia would have to have had a lot to gain from Trump becoming president for them to have wanted to collude with him. So, the American national anthem sounding “a bit Russian” is a metaphor for the accusation that Trump, the leader of the USA, is a pawn controlled by Russian puppetmasters.
