The East German Robotron PC 1715 also goes hard

I love the eastern bloc decision of just parading everything. Better than someone affecting Steve Jobs in some rizzless warehouse. We need more parades

I find it kind of wholesome as well, it gives off very heavy "look at what we're able to achieve!" kind of feelings. If things were paraded around like this under capitalism, it would just be one big huge ad to get you to buy the product.

That’s literally what the Macy’s (TM) Thanksgiving Day Parade is. Just a string of advertisements.

It was kinda logical before internet and 1000 channels cable TV, if you want to show something, organise a parade and parade it through the capital streets, the chance people will watch this or read about it rise greatly.

Actually, it's pretty logical even in the time of internet and 1000 channels cable TV, people just like parades.
