The video was a clip from the 2017 film Darkest Hour about Winston Churchill during World War II, and has Gary Oldman playing Churchill shouting, “You cannot reason with a tiger when your head is in its mouth!” Oldman’s character was talking about Hitler in the scene, but the department’s clip followed the line with techno music over a montage of President Trump, implying that he’s the tiger. The post carried the tagline, “No one does it like us,” followed by a tiger emoji.
They’ll say they were comparing Trump to the tiger, not to who the tiger represented.
Holy shit, I hated that tendency even back in the 90s.
Me: “I’m really liking this [happy hardcore | jungle | house | trance]”
Other person: “Oh you mean this techno?”
Sometimes, this conversation worked out and actually was techno…I didn’t want to be the WELPAXTUALLLEEE guy on it, but on the other hand, it’s not like we label every style of music that has electric guitar in it “rock and roll”.
Even if we accept that, it does little to make him look better. It’s claiming that he can force people to do what he wants, rather than negotiating with them to mutual benefit.
ALSO, Trump can’t seem to handle Iran. What makes him think we can handle Canada?

I’m not sure they’re smart enough to even make that excuse.
we’re back in the 90s and any song that uses synthesized instruments is “techno”

You mean it wasn’t Sandstorm?
I didn’t watch it, but that’s what I imagined him doing his double-jerk-off dance to when I read that part…
Wasn’t even Daft Punk. It’s some mainstream hip hop song and the whole thing I guess is a rip off of a Tiger Woods tiktok meme.
