As incredible as it may seem, the images highlight the year 2021 as chaotic for the United States, and internet users have viralized the comparison between cartoons and real events.
The Simpsons did it again. They once again predicted the future of American politics. This time: the chaos that the 2021 elections would cause in the United States. Proof of this is the chapter “Treehouse of Horror XXX”; Chapter 4 of Season 32.
The mythical episode shows that Homer is not interested in elections, so he does not go to the polls. Marge scolds him, but he only replies, “How bad can it be?” A second later, it is seen that it is already January 2021 and Springfield is on fire and destroyed due to protests over the election results.

Coincidence or prediction? Internet users believe that this is the last reason why they have flooded the internet with comparisons of cartoon images compared to real ones.
The most amazing thing is that it is not the only episode in which I predict political chaos. Since the first season 11, Homer and Mel Gibson are planning a movie. In it, the protagonist kills all members of the US Congress and sets fire to the chapter.

Very similar to what happened yesterday in the Capitol in Washington. What should have been a mere formality turned into an “insurrection” on Wednesday that “went to sedition,” in Biden’s words, when a crowd of Trump supporters invaded the Chapter, considered the temple of American democracy.
The images that have swept the world in recent hours are still incredible: entrenched politicians with gas masks, protesters stationed in the offices of American officials with their feet on the table and the noble corridors of the Chapter invaded by armed agents, as if it were an American action film.
A boom in social networks
The assault on the United States Capitol by supporters of President Donald Trump generated 23.46 million tweets, or an average of 430 per second, according to data compiled by Visibrain on Thursday.
The event produced 2.5 times more tweets than in the last 24 hours of the November presidential election, the social media monitoring platform said.
These elections have already generated six times more tweets than in the previous 2016 elections.
Trump supporters ravaged Capitol Hill on Wednesday in an attempt to prevent the US Congress from ratifying Joe Biden’s electoral victory, which eventually validated it.
Twitter and Facebook temporarily blocked the outgoing president’s accounts – which had called on his supporters to advance to the Capitol – and the bluebird’s social network threatened to suspend him permanently.
