The Simpsons they did it again. The series created by Matt Groening became a social media trend after Kamala Harris was “predicted” as Vice President of the United States.
Users remembered the chapter “Bart to the Future”, where Lisa Simpson becomes president after Donald Trump. This resemblance wasn’t the only one, though, as in the episode Homer’s daughter wears a purple suit, the same one Harris wore at Joe Biden’s inauguration ceremony on Wednesday.
The scene where you get to see the country’s financial results mentions Trump and the massive post-term crisis.
This chapter was released in the United States on March 19, 2000.
Attack on the Capitol
After the attack on the US Capitol, users responded and pointed out that this had happened in another chapter of “The Simpsons.”
Users refer specifically to two chapters, the first being Chapter 18 of the seventh season entitled “The Day the Violence Died” where a “protest” is shown on the steps of the Capitol where laws and reforms are being introduced loading of bombs, weapons and flaming flags.
The other episode is from the special “La Casita del Horror XXXI”, a tradition of Halloween. In this chapter, you can see “Homer Simpson” on the roof of his house drinking beer, carrying a shotgun and everything around him on fire, what is most striking is that this scene takes place on January 20th, 2021, the day Joe Biden will have his inauguration.
