In episode 41 it starts being in landscape mode. People that got baited by the shorts are now watching this on their own time and are invested in the lore. Lots of themes of "big brother will kill those toilet heads for you". Useful as a slur to use at whatever "the enemy" is
in skibidi toilet # 35,this is when the viewer gets enlistedto join in killing the toilets that live in other cameraheads heads using a gun. They also solidify an "in group" hand gesture of a thumbs up. Useful as a dog whistle.
Hot take: #SkibidiToilet is full of military and pro war propaganda. Though it could just be a reflection of the authors culture rather than something done on purpose. For some thinking in military propaganda is like breathing clean air.
Jeeze I feel really bad for the toilets tho. The camera heads are basically genociding them using state violence. Though they paint the toilets as the scary ones to justify why it's okay to reduce then to vermin.
it's interesting how it makes the viewer associate with the camera heads and how the viewer is just abother camera seeing it happen. Similar to how within our society we viewers are being reduced to cameras filming each other. In a aense we are but we have such different views on the global set of all things that may be viewable on one instant.
okay yeah the toilets are the bad guys. Keep that up your sleeve when interacting witb a nephew or whatver this holiday season. #SkibidiToilet
i wish I could turn my living rokm tv on it's side so I could appreciate the format fully. I hope they release a 4k version some day. Or even a blueray for us olds. The story is very political and I'm still not sure whether the author wants us to side with the toilets or the camera heads.
I believe Skibidi Toilet's success is due to it fully embracing the "tiktok/youtube shorts" format while being episodic storytelling which can interleve with the algorithm. Kids are into it because it is art that is on the cutting edge of media formats. The fact that it is silly and the actual story is honestly secondary. Though maybe I will appreciate the store more as I get deeper into the lore?
@tty Oh yeah absolutely! I am guilty of being a major booster instead of a tooter. 😭
k! We should find a way to get the skibidi toilet guy onto the #Fediverse via peertube or some shit. I guarantee we'll replace centralized social media within the generation. Especially if it got to be exclusively on the fedi?!
facebook/threads gripes, sarcasm
@thisismissem Which attack did you see in this case? No names were called no insults to character. Is expressing any sort of anxiety for the hands of a big bully in your space an attack? The massive power imbalance is real and the threat of violence from facebook is everpresent even if people are "being nice" to each other.
@talon Oh yeah I hear it in Jungle and DnB tracks often. It kinda sounds like a phone ringing to me.
