its a tv miniseries

saw it mentioned in a youtube video by FD signifier, I just finished the first episode, and I enjoyed it a lot, something about needing positive propaganda not just constant commenting on reactionary garbage

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I'm_a_Virgo

synopsis below, directed by Boots riley, released 2023

Cootie is a 13-foot-tall (4.0 m), 19-year-old Black teenager raised by his Aunt Lafrancine and Uncle Martisse in Oakland, California. He is shielded from the outside world until being accidentally discovered by a group of teenage political activists

I was howling at that scene, great cameo too

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 4 points 1 week ago

Same! As soon as that episode ended I was taking screenshots and posting. Too good not to share.

i watched it when it came out and its so good

[–] erik@hexbear.net 15 points 1 week ago

Same. I'm surprised how little people talk about it considering how much of a splash Sorry to Bother You made.

It's a great show. Really felt like the ultimate slap in the face to Jeff Bezos that his money was being used to fund the production of a show where a character just directly faces the audience, breaks the fourth wall, and starts explaining Marx to them. chefs-kiss

I loved every episode. I hope there's more. Probably not much more he could say in this story that would be allowed on tv but I hope he tries something
