For those out of the loop.
He was mistaken for a thief of some kind and was arrested in the middle of a meal.
Does anyone know what democracy manifest means?
I’m talking out of my ass, but it could mean that the natural conclusion of democracy is mob rule, where nothing matters besides the sentiment of “the mob”, a large group of like-minded people. Here he was falsely accused of theft but because enough people believed the lie, he was taken to jail based solely on sentiment.
Or not. This is my take on his “democracy manifest” comment.
That’s a good take, but I think it is more likely a sarcastic comment. A comment that Australia should be a democratic government with rights but now it’s a police state that no longer resembles democracy (in his angry opinion)
I believe he’s commenting on the idea that state of the current democracy has led to his wrongful arrest.
He’s asking onlookers, “Is this really what you voted for?”
I would argue it just means that the Democracy that was created as the Australian government is (among other things) what led to his wrongful arrest while eating out and being manhandled on camera. -He just said it in an extraordinarily eloquent way. You could also draw some additional inferences based on his behavior, tone, and choice of words, but I can’t really confirm any 100%.
He’s in the video for Dine and Dash by The Chats
I’d never seen the video for this. It is spectacular.
All their videos are great. One of the best bands of 2020s IMHO
I’ve listened to them a lot, but had never seen any music videos apart from Smoko. Need to have a watching session now!
I see The Chats I updoot simple as.
RIP you judge of all things Succulent and Judo
