i saw someone (tiff4nyblews) post on tiktok that the lltbp set is a metaphor for the music industry/their record label and Fuck . it was so fucking genius i havent been able to stop thinking about it and its changed everything ever for me and its made me rethink so much of the lore So heres me rambling about it ok with my favourite lore video that weβve got. More below so i dont ruin everyones feed
(thank you @emo-sonic for the soup photo!!!! hope u dont mind the @ lol)
i think the first impression of the feast video in comparison to the soup in draag world is that its a contrast in what the elites vs the working class eat. like how much of an emphasis is put on the working class growing their own wheat and how their gameshow prize on quizzo was soup like. they do not have the luxury the elites have, so much so that even a dog eats better than them, so much more than them, and has this like, ornate table with candles which is like, just ridiculous as an image
and like this photo of the two soldiers looking at eachother before nodding at the other guy to signal to put more on. like to me it feels like theyre saying βman seriously. a dog is eating this muchβ , probably because They are/were working class and couldnt even imagine this kind of food. + The Lady (what is her name idk) just sitting by and not doing anything letting it happen.. being a metaphor for like the elites in society generally. agh
and then you look at it from it from like a music industry point of view and its like. maybe weβre the dog. like we will eat anything this band puts out whether its one song in the 5 years theyve been back together as a band, a tour based around their best selling album, or extremely expensive merch/concert tickets and The Lady & soliders are the label just watching and encouraging it and giving it to us. so like maybe weβre apart of the problem in the control the record label has over us. i think the audience is meant to be represented in the clerk but I need to organise my thoughts on that more before posting about it i think .. Idk. So many thoughts
