    The vibe that I feel McKay was going for is the Simpsons meme with Ralph on the bus chuckling about being in danger. It feels like a dramedy, but so close to reality that you can’t help but have that reaction. It’s not necessarily a call to action, just a hey wake up and see how close we are to this shit.
