I am brave and I watched it. Ummm. I have seen these skibdi memes. So not only this is unfunny. Its also not remotely trying to do the meme. There's no music.
I guess its supposed to be : oh its a head in a toilet. And also trump. Now laugh. Well its a reference to that one thing. The kids love it. Isn't it funny we are referencing it. Also trump. Whoa how funny is that.
Fuck this. Colbert should be legally denied from doing comedy.
If you tell yourself Colbert is just doing the liberal counterpart to his Report character it's hilarious. The fact it's actually sincere is incredibly depressing.
These are the people who were supposed to be relying on to stop fascism.
I'm gonna brush past everything else cringe in this to focus on one thing:
Not bothering to warp Biden's face in unsettling ways.
Commit to the bit you cowards! Like, if you're gonna do this whole soullessly gesturing at the internet trends of literal children, at least commit to the bit.
I'm just...baffled. Did anyone who made this actually think it was funny? Did people laugh in the writer's room? I can't wrap my head around it. Like, I can at least understand edgelord humor. I, too, was once an edgy 13 year old who scrolled through /b/ and ED, so I get the appeal of "subversive" humor (which I now understand is literally the opposite of subversive, since it just reinforces existing power structures). But even if I try to put myself in the shoes of a #Resistance #MullerTime terminal TDS lib I just can't see what could possibly be funny about this.
Who is this for? Skibidi toilet is just gmod YouTube poops for gen alpha, none of which are old enough to vote. Everyone else on the planet looks at skibidi toilet and goes "haha yeah those kids so weird haha"
Biden is gonna come out on stage with the broccoli haircut and say "no cap on god" or whatever kids say these days. The bewildered silence will cause him to collapse into a corn singularity.
