I know socko is a sock but I think he deserves more than an “it”

Exactly. Politics is about power - the right wing understands this and has become extremely fixated on playing power politics while liberals naively think they can “unity” and “decorum” Nazis into getting with the program. Fascists have a deep complex about the emasculation they feel about having to pretend to be decent in public, and they want nothing less than to humiliate and *hurt* you because of that. They only care about one objective: Power. Being made to feel small and stupid. They’re a cult, and they don’t care what your prissy “Jewish” academia says are the facts, because your facts are fake news that they think are contradicted by anyone with eyes looking out a window and trusting their intuition.

The irony that you don't seem to get here is that Bo is portraying the rich elite and his character is filling the minds of the lower class "socko" with BS to keep him compliant to his slightly improved way of life while still keeping him essentially powerless. Also what Marx was preaching to the idiot masses as a method of social control. IDK read a book or something, just don't burden me with educating you. It's exhausting.

Yeah. People dont want to just be forced to do things they don't wanna do and they also dont want to be limited just because weaker people demand them to be. Communism would work for ants obviously, who enjoy being enslaved. But theres no room for it in the human race, who must always be free and independent to choose their own lives and adventures.

I hope you get to experience communism the way most of Europe learned it, painfully

I think the message is that part is extremely naive and delusional and the world in fact doesn't work like that. Even the natural worldvis not so hunky dory. Power rules there as well.

@@pomelo9840 you are not a good person

nice catch! i read this part as saying, when socko isn’t being propped up and used, he is unable to speak and be heard. similar to the fact that disenfranchised people aren’t given much of a voice unless the elite are using them for their own gain.

I thought of the constant state of sleep paralysis as the working class constantly needing to work, essentially having no energy, money, or relationships to organize and make their voice heard. Just work, sleep, work, sleep. They only get the voice when the powerful give them the means.

It's very clever. And my partner pointed out, it's even more poignant when you realise that even when he does back down and does what Bo wants, he still gets discarded at the end when Bo is done with him.

You could even draw a comparison to it being similar to Bo Burnham having to use Netflix and their power and money to send a message like this. Bo and his message being the sock and the hand being Netflix. A big corporation like Netflix doesn't really care and they benefit from views and subscriptions anyways despite the message so they keep their smiley face on. If they want, they can just cut his funding and support off. It's the same everywhere, no matter how you do it, every message is sent on the backs of these big corporations whether it's Twitter or Facebook etc. They are the hands and they don't percive you as a threat so they allow it. Bo's whole career is built on the facilities these companies provide.

@@alwaysloaded4585 bruh

Yes. I think we all watched the video.

Not middle school through college, but maybe college or (possibly) breadtube, if at all. I mean the first few verses of Socko’s bit is about how the education system hides the unsavory parts of history or grazes through it.

I've always loved his songs for their lyricism, but I can admit his vocal tone could be unpleasant sometimes. It's a genuine joy to listen to now

Me too ! I especially love the first part too, his voice is so good, my heart always flutters a bit, haha !

yes! This one’s so much better, hopefully he has more control over his voice on live shows as well

Why the backhanded compliment? You didn't have to say "improved," drawing attention to past performance. You could have just said that he's great now. But you didn't choose that, you chose to include your little barb.

@@EyeLean5280 that’s a weird thing to get hung up on! i’ve been a huge fan of bo’s since 2009 and have always loved his content, but i think everyone and even bo himself would agree that the quality has gotten better and better over time! he wasn’t bad before, he has just objectively improved. hope that clears things up!

Gets the noggin' joggin'

Capitalism is a weird-ass mechanism, with loads of contradictions (or seemingly contradictions) like this. Netflix and other companies possibly benefit to some extent by platforming some socialist ideas or criticisms, but they can always pull the plug if any of their creators go too hard on them. I mean, I despise Netflix and know that they execs and shareholders donate to both the Republicans and the Democrats for tax breaks and who knows what other shit and would love to boycott them entirely, and yet here I am watching one of their videos, giving it a like and adding it to a playlist because I really like Bo and his song and want more people to see it. Instead of being able to neatly boycott Netflix and support art which critiques it at the same time, they have co-opted it, forcing us to choose between the two. Plus, seeing this kind of socially conscious work on Netflix might trick less informed people into thinking Netflix is a "cool" company with strong moral values (even though as an abstract set of mechanisms and processes designed to deliver profit, a corporation cannot hold values), more like Ben & Jerry's than Amazon.

I mean we'll still have steaming services under Socialism sooo

*Socialism

I also think Socko embodies the good and bad of the Left. Particularly when Socko's asked what can be done to help, he does the "omg why should I have to educate you? It's exhausting." thing I've seen so many leftists/progressives do. Like how are you gonna go on a rant revealing the lies we've been told, and then when asked how to actually fight it they act like you're imposing on them. It makes so many of us ineffective in a way that helps ppl justify stuff like the blatant suppression and threatening of the host. Yes this song is about how insurmountable the ruling class seems to be AND how Leftists tend to fail to take advantage of the platforms they're given because they think being correct is good enough on its own.

@thataestheticbxtch How about "Eat The Rude"? That would also include all the rude Rich people, and the kind hearted rich people could live in peace? Btw,, Im not rich - Im just against harming anybody who doesnt ask for it. Then again, it would be so much better, if people entertained the thought for a less violent way of changing things, but unfortunately we are too impatient...

@leggie It totally made sense, and I completely agree with you. The reason I wrote what I did was because of the first reply to the OP, which suggested we should kill the rich. Once I saw the next guy talking about Eating the rich, it reminded me of "Eat The Rude" - or an inside joke (ish) from the TV series Hannibal. In the end, I stand by what I said about not wanting harm for everyone, but I Absolutely agree that the resources of the planet we inhabit are distributed unfairly and that a change Is not only possible Without it becoming some "commies wet dream", but its Absolutely necessary for US as a species to survive.

@leggie Its one of my all time favorite shows, and Ive seen it through at least 4 times. Too bad it was cancelled, but there have been rumors its doing well on Netflix, since they started streaming it, so its still possible we might get the entire story the showrunner originally envisioned. That said, even if that never happens, the first 2 and a half seasons are absolutely Marvelous imo, and while I wasnt crazy about their take on The Red Dragon, it certainly wasnt bad, just didnt grab me the first time, and I intend on watching it again at some point - preferably right before S04 comes out ^_^

Maybe Bo wasn’t entirely correct when he said the Internet was toxic. Wholesome exchanges like this can happen too!

@leggie Unfortunately it was cancelled, yes. That said, the last couple of scenes worked alright as an ending of the story, but it definitely left interesting opportunities open, as the wonderful showrunner actually mapped out the entire story even before the production began. Taking that into account, as well as the slight buzz I mentioned before, if it goes in our favor, we might get 2 more seasons. However, if you want to end on a high note, then definitely stop at s03x07 - Imo it actually resolves the first big story arc in a satisfying manner. I myself have done so every time I rewatched the show, while still having hopes that Mr. Fuller gets to finish his vision so that I can finally revisit the last 6 eps.

Well of course; he's a sock puppet.

Socko assuming that Bo has already sung the first verse in his usual cynical tone

@@Justinsdada03 I think the meaning behind that line is that Socko wouldn't say anything outside of the narrative that Bo (playing the character of the social elite) has created. Socko then speaks the truth and gets punished for it.

technically bo’s already said what socko proceeded to say, in the first part bo said “gives what they can and gets what they need”, which is a paraphrasing of Marx’s “from each according to their ability, to each according to their need”.

@@MrNobbless I don't think he gets punished for his singing parts. I think he gets punished for not fully buying into "rich white person wants to help", upon his refusal to play along with a member of majority wanting to be "the good guy" he gets punished, the white guy gets to play the victim and oppress the minority whilst at it

That's not an oopsies, that's the powerful not caring what the oppressed are saying because they know it will do nothing to jeopardize their position of absolute power.

(ik I'm late as hell but) same; I've thought about that line more than any other in this piece. Is it sincere? Is it an attempt to get out of participating? Is it an attempt to reassure Bo that Socko's going to be agreeable? I think depending on how you interpret that line, the relationship you imagine between these two can change quite a bit. I know there's not like "How the World Works" lore or anything but that won't stop me from speculating

@@veravalentekovich My interpretation is this: Bo said he is explaining how the world works. Socko thinks that what he is about to say is just a basic overview, as further implied when he says "read a book or something" -> there is more to learn, this is just the beginning. Therefore Socko would think that this "basic knowledge of how the world works" would obviously be how Bo started. The actual first part that everything is happily working together, makes no sense from his point of view. So in my interpretation Socko was just being honest, he thought that those things were said already.

Greta Thanos It’s anti capitalist satire lmao

@Greta Thanos it's anti-capitalist satire lmao

It's almost if art really cannot do anything to change things. It can inspire others take action but in itself it is ineffectual as a political action.

@@Lilliathi I don't think you get the implications of how horrible having your body frozen, but your mind still active is.
