The way we get a door opening in both A summoning... and "Long Live". But in A summoning... we get a young man who is a fan running from the draculoids (part of a fascist regime), while in "Long Live" it's a dictator in a fascist regime walking out of a set of doors to... fans? people forced to support a man lest they be victims of more violence? All of the above? I don't think the parallel means anything but I DO think it's an interesting parallel.

i do think there will be something more than just pure black parade nostalgia. the dictator rose to power after the band was "sent to the moat" - implying their absence allowed for the rise to power - and now that same dictator is bringing them back for a celebration of empire. but empire (and fascism, as in line with the aesthetics presented in the video) is dependent on nostalgia, that is, a rose-tinted view of the past which doesn't exist. fighting empire also means fighting against the fake ideals they hold up as tradition and the "glorious past" that never actually was. so my bet is that this tour will be introducing more elements besides just tbp stuff.

look i’m rly not getting cashgrab sellout nostalgia bait tour from this for many reasons. the main one being that they’re building upon the original concept.
they could’ve made tour announcement posters with a TBP png and call it good, but no they filmed a whole promo for it and left this in the description:
hinting that there’s much more to the universe that they’re going to tell throughout this tour, i’m guessing through sets, costumes, and gerard’s little speeches between songs. maybe something more..
then there’s the political undertones. i don’t think i have to say much about this considering the election happened just last week and the band is very politically vocal. and the announcement IS for a north american tour. the gaudy dictator imagery, a fascist regime. come on.
then there’s the fact that they have absolutely been cooking this for awhile. first of all there’s the secretary
i don’t have to spell it out for anyone, this shit is a CLEAR parallel. THEN there’s their TBP performance at WWWY.
the background looking like the blank slate of something in the very beginning of its creation. plain black and white, the band in all black. then, there were the simple backgrounds, pointing towards obvious themes throughout the album.
it’s a rough draft, each projection is a frame in the storyboard. they knew this was coming, this performance WAS the rough draft in the making.
i’m sure the money has been good for them since the reunion, but they’re not just treating this as a means for the payout. this is a whole fucking production. and we all saw how much they put into the reunion tour. so yeah, we’re in for so much more from them.
basically we’re fucked.

gerard spending the last 20 years racking up emo street cred so she can finally put on the greatest german expressionist brutalist stage play this town has ever seen… genius

A law that not a lot of people know about is that tommyinnit is actually legally allowed to kill, which is why sometimes he will publicly execute random YouTubers on twitter

Trump voters on tiktok are EXTREMELY mad about the following:
They just found out what tariffs are
They just found out what denaturalization is
They (particularly black and Hispanic trump voters) just found out that other trump voters are racist
Leftists and liberals don't want to be their friends (they are furious about this)
Leftists keep telling them they hope they get what they voted for (they are really mad about this too)
