Reddit Blade Runner Parody
Project Overview
Reddit has a lot of "Correct the Record" bot accounts posting pro-Hillary & anti-Trump comments. I wanted to do a YouTube video about it. It would be a parody this Blade Runner scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Umc9ezAyJv0
This is the script. The tone/pacing of the lines would ideally follow the Blade Runner scene as closely as possible.
Holden: Come in. Sit down.
Leon: Care if I crosspost this to EnoughTrumpSpam? We love laughing at Drumpftards
Holden: Uh, just please don't brigade.
Leon: Oh, too late. [pause] I already have a 2 year old account. I don't think there's any reason to suspect me--
Holden: Unique responses are a factor in this, so please don't paste something prewritten. Now, reply as quickly as you can.
Leon: Sure.
Holden: r politics.
Leon: That's my subreddit.
Holden: What?
Leon: Where I live in.
Holden: Nice place?
Leon: Yeah, sure I guess-- that part of the test?
Holden: No, just warming you up, that's all.
Leon: You're a fucking white male.
Holden: You're on the politics new queue, looking at an important post when all of the sudden-
Leon: Is this the test now?
Holden: Yes. You're on the new queue, looking at an important post when all of the sudden you downvote it-
Leon: Pro-Drumpf title?
Holden: What?
Leon: Is the title Pro-Drumpf?
Holden: The title doesn't specify. It's an important article from a respected source.
Leon: But why would I downvote if the title wasn't pro-Drumpf?
Holden: Maybe you're open to discussion, maybe you want r politics to be informative, who knows? You look at the newqueue and you see an important article. You read the article-
Leon: Read the article? What's that?
Holden: Know how you read the title?
Leon: Of course.
Holden: Same thing.
Leon: I never read the articles I downvote -- But I understand what you mean.
Holden: You downvote the post, and then you write a comment about how the article sucked.
Leon: Donald Drumpf is a racist, thinskinned orange.
Holden: The article gets buried, the vital information it contains trying to educate the public but it can't, not without your upvote, but you're not upvoting.
Leon: What do you mean I'm?
Holden: I mean, you're blindly downvoting. Why is that? -- They're just questions. We've been seeing a flood of Correct the Record bots, so this a test, designed to provoke an emotional response. -- Shall we continue? Describe in full sentences, the reasons you support Hillary Clinton despite... her scandals.
Leon: Hillary's scandals?
Holden: Yeah.
Leon: [threatening] Let me tell you about Hillary's scandals...
