@lowlevel @raganwald Yeah, that seems like the right interpretation here. $50 but you have to actually attend the showing entirely.
They do seem the kind of people to do something like this to fill seats, but I'd still bet on it being some rando thinks it's funny. They're correct.
@crazyeddie @raganwald
well, you can get 50 bucks and have a good 2 hours warm nap. which seems a good deal if you're a homeless.
of course given the audience is not laughing too hard. -
@the_turtle @raganwald It's a paid role filling seats for the optics. You don't get paid if you leave early. But who cares? Ruin the optics.

@raganwald also feels like trump is speedrunning the fascist regime arc (the rise and fall, from the atrocities and world-scale bullying to the devolution into complete mediocrity and desperation, and we’re already nearing the second half)
