From my other account...

[PsychoVoyager @PSYCH0voyager]

"Parasite (You Are A)" was written and first recorded in 1997 and released on an album, okay, a mixtape I gave out to people. My first CD burner was probably a year away.
Not likely about politics at the time, and probably not against anybody personally. Might've observed some situation that inspired the title. Or I just decided to write some dark shit. Who knows. Been spending a lot of time listening to Suno remakes to like 40 years of my old songs, and this one came up. Certain current events already in mind, I knew where I was going with this. Hadn't really intended on it's own video until I came across a meme online originally based on a scene from Total Recall.
The recording is a mash-up of elements of 4 different renditions plus my vocals and guitars from 1997. The Suno vocals dominate, so you can barely hear my own except in a couple of spots.
Trump and Netanyahu were already repped in the meme. I used Kling to change the background and shirt color from green to white.
I used Dzine for most of the lip syncs, but for some reason Kling for one scene.
Much of the video used a mixed bag of platforms and models, with some models that wanted nothing to do with this bullshit. Leonardo, Dzine, Kling, Google Flow, Grok for the Prez brushing his teeth. Within those, LTX2.3, Hailuo 2.3, Kling 3.0, Kling video O3,Seedream 4.5, Seedance pro (both being older, the new one was resistant, for some reason), nano banana, Veo.
A second meme was appropriated as well, of the Prez bent over. It's not, believe it or not, an anti-Trump video. The production climaxes with a hint of "hopium," that we might get our Preznit back.
More A.I. - Asked Google Gemini for mixing advice again, and found it helpful, getting further instruction from Perplexity. After further tweaks, ask for more advice, but ignored it, as I was pretty happy with the result so far.
Thumbnails and title animations with greenscreen backgrounds also via Google Flow. In addition I asked Gemini whether "Parasite" or "(You Are A) Parasite" would make better titles. It made cases for both while suggesting a third, I hadn't considered before - "Parasite (Inside Out)." It ended up preferring "Parasite," but I preferred the 3rd choice and went with it.
Because of the sensitive topic, I made a separate lipsync video sans political stuff in case it gets disappeared. Also because of the (slight amount of) gore, I'm age-restricting this one.
The lipsync performance is just me miming the vocals, in my living room with a Hooga red light device. I can't speak to it's health benefits. I like blasting myself with it's light when meditating though.

In fact, the part everyone seems to be missing, is that after years of support for their cause, they repaid the American voter by hijacking their best hope to improve their own lives, then attacking everyone voters love who objected.

Including now, @realDonaldTrump himself.

Let me break it down in a simple way that I’ve been reporting from the beginning.
To invent a vaccine for a disease that didn’t exist, our scientific Einsteins used taxpayer money to partner with communist China to create the dangerous virus in a lab—So that they could create a vaccine for it.
Covid was a result of primarily US funded vaccine research, and that’s the thing they could not let you know.
They stopped at nothing to obfuscate, misdirect, cover their tracks, protect themselves, and controversialize anyone telling the truth.
The scientific establishment and media aided and abetted.
I can think of no more impactful, crimes and violations that have occurred in our lifetime.

To donors:

“Pass the SAVE America Act”

To Fox News:

“Pass the SAVE America Act”

On talk radio:

“Pass the SAVE America Act”

At campaign rallies:

“Pass the SAVE America Act”

To Senate Republicans behind closed doors:

“Stop talking about the SAVE America Act”

[Mike Lee @BasedMikeLee]

We have 50 votes for the SAVE America Act

With the @VP, we have a simple majority

The fact that we don’t currently have 60 votes for cloture doesn’t mean it can’t pass

It just means we have to work harder to break the filibuster

We have to shed the defeatist attitude

I have never seen X use this label before.

The violence is against ToS but the message is SO revealing that they kept it visible. 👀

Bru-ROH, stop it!

Israel First still hasn't realize they LOST the American Right the moment they hijacked the Trump Admin in March 2025.

They really did think his coalition was the sum total of Evangelicucks.

Yes, folks.

I do find entertainment in ignorance.

BIG PICTURE REASONS WHY "CHOCOLATE RAIN" WENT VIRAL:
• With no algorithms, the Internet was driven by novelty, not loyalty. Weirdness wins novelty.
• Myspace was #1 in social media. YouTube was unproven and Facebook had just opened up beyond colleges. YouTube needed a "model home" for what its cultural real estate meant.
• One person uploading a video that thousands of strangers parodied became YouTube's behavioral "model home." No other platform had that social dynamic.
• Soulja Boy, Chris Crocker, and other talented creators had viral YouTube videos that got widely parodied. "Chocolate Rain" became identified with a type of "shareholder safe" virality. YouTube's human editors promoted it on the front page.
• YouTube was an unproven business for both Google and creators. The idea of creators earning Internet money was not mainstream. I was added in round two of YouTube's experimental Partner Program. I believe round one had about thirty creators.
• Television remained the eight-hundred-pound media gorilla. Viacom's billion-dollar copyright lawsuit was an existential YouTube threat just as the first YouTube videos went viral. The fact that "Chocolate Rain" began on YouTube and transitioned to me being on CNN, Jimmy Kimmel, discussed by Carson Daly and dozens of other celebrities... came at a time when YouTube needed a Rosetta Stone. They needed to translate a massively subsidized, high-risk venture into understandable cultural value. "Chocolate Rain" became a stenographer of YouTube crossing over. I got parodied on South Park, Saturday Night Live, nominated for a People's Choice Award, sang with Boyz II Men on Tosh.0 etc.
HOW DID "CHOCOLATE RAIN" GO VIRAL?:
• "Chocolate Rain" was rushed to completion in April of 2007 since I had another song ("Love," made with Kooby) featured on YouTube's front page and wanted other new content. It sat at around 30,000 views until summer.
• "Chocolate Rain" got posted on Digg in July of 2007, an early Reddit-style social bookmark site. Someone saw it there and posted it on 4chan.
• 4chan worked to meme "Chocolate Rain," "Numa Numa," Rick Astley, and other things. In 2007, 4chan was dominantly "Howard Stern liberal." Being offensive, outrageous, and highly speech-tolerant used to be identified with leftist, avant-garde identity. My first inkling that "Chocolate Rain" was going viral was 4chan prank-calling Tom Green's self-produced show and the caller busting out singing "Chocolate Rain!"
MORE FACTORS IN "CHOCOLATE RAIN" GOING VIRAL:
• YouTube had no stereo sound in early 2007. I posted a free "Chocolate Rain" MP3 download, with a giant video banner announcing it, purely to circumvent this. I wanted my songs heard in stereo.
• "Chocolate Rain" begins with an instrumental and loops. This, combined with the MP3 download, made parodies easy. This was totally unplanned luck. It's like it was made to be parodied.
• I looked like Janet Jackson, moved like Mr. Bean, and sounded like Barry White. Not trying to mean-girl myself, just being blunt. I was a unique combination of attributes but also not self-aware. Social internet video of everyday life was a new experience. Like, "If that guy is singing 'Chocolate Rain,' what's MY neighbor doing?" Everyday life was transforming into a democratic video content frontier nobody had given much prior thought to.
• It's worth noting that 2007 was before mainstream mobile Internet video consumption. YouTube was overwhelmingly consumed on desktop computers and laptops. The later shift to engagement-optimized and loyalty-optimized social video was heavily influenced by phones.
PERSONAL FACTORS WHY "CHOCOLATE RAIN" WENT VIRAL:
• I built a bedsheet box in my living room to sing "Chocolate Rain" in because I'm agoraphobic. That's the opposite of claustrophobic. Boundaries supercharge me. It also turns out that lots of people have bedsheets to hang up.
• I moved stiffly and sang "Chocolate Rain" with elongated vowels because of dyspraxia, a neurological movement difficulty tied to me being autistic (first diagnosed at age sixteen).
• "Chocolate Rain" musically captured my tendency towards echolalia and echopraxia — repetition and reinvocation of speech and behavior. These are adaptations to being a partially verbal autistic who has to blend-in with speaking society. They also help in making catchy songs.
