    It's so true how the internet has blurred everything together. You see something tragic and then there's a meme right below. We hardly have a chance to process emotions and so it all turns to be numb

      It makes me think of Instagram stories. It goes from social justice to “look at what I ate for lunch!” really fast. Makes the seriousness of issues seem insincere.

      Exactly. I'm not even entirely sure Bo knew what he had here, because this project clearly weighed on him organically throughout its production, but I'll be damned if there aren't so many subtle nuances in its craft that make it stand head and shoulders above any 'comedy special' in years, if not decades. In fact it's almost insulting to call it a comedy special. This is a feature length, one man virtuoso film that deserves every single award that's coming its way. I always thought Burnham was a smart and snappy performer, but this is visceral stuff that hits hard. I question if some will turn it off before the first 30 minutes or so are up not understanding where this thing is going, but all those people are missing the fuck out on what is right now the best film of the year.

    I feel like if you asked artists to design a character embodying the entire Internet, they'd really get to be creative and go all out with the prompts, adding a lot of features and details to the character's design.
    But I find it interesting how effective this portrayal is: white shirt, black pants, black shoes, round black sunglasses. It's so simple. He just looks like any guy at all. All the weight of the character is in Bo's performance and the cold blue lighting. His outfit would be perfectly unremarkable if not for the sunglasses. We can't see his eyes. The lenses are small, so we can still see his eyebrows, it's not like we can't read his expression. But we can't look into his eyes. There's no window to the soul, just round black discs.

      Id say its more a 'welcome to chaos'
      Its a song he's repeated for decades on end, to every new traveller, individually by the millions. In doing so, and seeing what they ask for, he's lost his mind, his original ethos corrupted and warped by humanity. Of course, he's not fully lost, at the end he regains composure, only to once again lose it, but it demonstrates that there is some degree of sanity left.

    To top it off with “And if we stick together, who knows what we’ll do. It was always the plan. To put the world in your hand.” Then followed by the worlds most evil sounding laughter ever, then switches into fast paced “Could I internist you in everything, all of the time, apathy is a tragedy and boredom is a crime” shows that the lack of care the world has for a single person, YOU. and that the “world in your hand” isn’t always the best thing. You see for how truly terrible and evil people can be and that if the internet connects the world together, then the internet would be the worst place from the start because of that. Bo then covers it in the beginning with a wholesome sounding song, but cracks in the paradise of the internet start to show, and in the end, it all is let loose. The evil of humanity can never be hidden, especially on the internet, no matter what you do.

    As an educator for 30 years, mostly at the high school level but at elementary and middle school the last 2 years..... People really need to think how this internet world is impacting these little tikes AND their parents.
    I wasnt allowed to watch the 3 stooges as a kid because my mom was afraid i would imitate their physical slap stick thinking it was real. Think what these kids are being exposed to 24/7 if they want and if not them, their parents. These kids have grown up knowing about every school shooting, every war is at their disposal and every conspiracy theory.
    We have to rethink how we teach our children and work with their parents. These kids are being exposed to every horrific event in the world or the people raising them have.

      It’s not entirely about how bad the internet is. I don’t feel as tho the nice part isn’t just manipulation, I just think it’s the bipolar wide range of the internet, the internet can be amazing and do amazing things and entirely innocent, but just as well can ruin lives. Both nice and evil parts are genuine and a part of the internet.

    There is an adult radio station in germany, called "Deutschlandfunk", which normally only has documentaries, news and politics. The only times they play music its normally whenever some Jazzmusician has died. And only at 1am.
    They played your song at least twice already, which actually means they accepted this song as part of a new culture, as something important that people need to hear. Congrats.

      I love it because its such a great way to represent shifting perceptions on the internet. When it was first booting up it was seen as the harbinger of a new age of digital democracy. Only for the corporations to slowly get this strange new beast under its thumb. Something with great revolutionary potential that was folded back into the hands of the powerful. A new form of control, now the internet is an Orwellian nightmare, where ANY engagement is good engagement, and algorithms shape our brains and dictate what we see. On top of that we had no Idea what how this new tech would change peoples engagement with life. This massive shift in the way we communicate and live, without a philosophical frame work to navigate this new world. The laugh to me at least is the broken promise of the internet.

      when i first found bo maybe 5 years ago or so it was so awesome, because here is this kid that clearly has what it takes to be one of the greats. not one of the greats yet, and its not clear whether or not he would blossom into one of the greats. it was so awesome to watch because up until that point in my life, all of the comedy greats and my comedy heroes were already super famous greatest of all time level - carlin, hicks, louis ck etc...but bo has given me the chance to watch one of these types of people grow from basically a child into someone who could stand toe to toe with the greats. is he there yet? not quite. will he 100% for sure achieve carlin status? i think it probable but not 100%. either way, its been an absolute honor and privilege to watch and im very much looking forward to all that is to come.

    The fact that the line at 1:39 "Could I interest you in everything all of them time? A little bit of everything all of the time? Apathy is a tradegy and boredom is a crime. Anything and everything all of the time." Just works with the topic of Internet it has everything you could toggle all of the time that's a little bit of everything all of the time. If you are ever mean on social media you'll be in deep trouble, and you just get glued to the screen so being bored is unintentionally a crime. This line is such a banger I love the notes that accompany it as well. I think a variation of this line appeared in Goodbye too.
