Wait a damn minute! Bad time for a how-to YouTube video.

Yeah, it feels like a lot of people are missing the mark with their content these days. Everyone's just trying to navigate tough times.

Red Letter Media did a video about several aspects of the episode that were prophetic.

Well, apparently someone that worked on Simpsons has ties to the island and peope are saying he waa warning people of the plans for the "new wolrd order." But, like, to say everything to happen without fail... or maybe there were some hic-ups and thats why some things happned slower than they were "revealed."

(While people really are talking about those rumors. I am just commenting while I wait in an EDF 5 lobby. Lmfao)

Actually it's just a result of my own fevered coma dream playing out in a closed environment with small amounts of real world information from a radio playing in my hospital room.
I saw Simpsons as a kid, so my brain invented this "real life" scenario because it physically does not have access to much new stimuli so it has to pull from internal memory.

I am the literal source of your existence and your misery. My sleeping status in this endless dream is what allows the stupid and chaotic and cruel here to happen.
"Simpsons predicted it" is just a byproduct of my own childhood viewing of the Simpsons as a total binge fest.

"When Simpsons got bad" is specifically when I went in for my appendix removal and never woke up. All of this is just my own mind developing inside a husk of a body in a bed unable to wake up but just able to subconsciously perceive my surroundings as my brain converts them into this dreaming delusion. My mind refuses to allow me to wake up, even as it attacks itself and splits my psyche further.

Predicted? Dare say it’s been going on since television existed

People always say 'predicted' like the writers were fortune tellers. I'm sure some of what they wrote was based on predictions of what the future was like, other stuff was just random shit that happened to come true.
