Did Black Mirror predict the future with its worst episode?

San Junipero? Probably.

waldo wasn't a prediction, but commentary on how every major politician since reagan functioned.

Waldo wasn't a Trump hit, at least not in execution. Its a hit on all the comedy news shows and their smug, cowardly hosts who act like politicians with none of the "acccountability" or expectation of leadership and policy.

Did Charlie Brooker then rebound it to Trump cause he's a homo who watches too much Adam Curtis when Trump actually won?
>>
>>87342297

I don't think it has to be read entirely in one way or another. The parallels, namely the vapidity, between Waldo and Trump are glaringly obvious to anyone who's not a die hard Trump fan though.

>>87343713
this applies to every major politician since reagan

>>87343951

Arguably, but not to the extent it does with Trump.

>>87343964
yes to the extent it does with trump. especially with bush, reagan, clinton, gore, and blair (who it was actually about).

Felt like a stab at the whole faceless identity people assume when discussing important matters, like they arent accountable, the "avatar" is. Like people on /pol/ saying "I want to kill all niggers" when in real life they dont give half a shit about black people, they are some no-mark teenager who just runs their mouth off because its funny, but the thing is, there are actually people that will see this radical shit and actually support it thinking there is someone with the same radical views as them, even when the person who said it didnt support it themselves, they could just say whatever they wanted because they were behind an avatar.

Imagine if Pepe started actually being adopted by politicians, you wouldnt know who was behind the avatar at any time and it could be someone you dont actually agree with politically but they are using the avatar as a face to say things, just because its funny and makes you laugh you side with them, with no regard to actual politics.

Doesn't The Simpsons predict a lot of things? (inb4sneed)
>>
dumb

its about the facelessness of real power; of how the modern political is simply the PR man for the interests they represent

not an original sentiment though, waldo is merely an updated version of big brother
