Official White House account posted a clip with Deep Time in the background. What is this timeline... I don't like this bro.

The footage is edited to look degraded too. It’s like a straight up Tape 05 tribute by Trump administration

There's a fair chance it's deliberate ragebait. It's no coincidence they posted this right before Inferno release. Earlier this year they used Radiohead in an ICE video and they reacted by telling them to go fuck themselves. So clearly TWH know what they're doing. Like Radiohead BoC's following is clearly more left-leaning. I mean there was even a thread here from a conservative asking if they can listen to BoC

Why is the White House larping BOC? Of all places BOC music is used it has to be propaganda?

If I had to guess, the Tape 05 vid was trending on YouTube so the soulless dipshits in the WH probably saw it and nabbed it for their own shitty purposes.

The irony is palpable.

Personally, I think it’s pretty wild and kind of awesome that Boards of Canada made it all the way to the White House. Doesn’t mean I support the politics, just that their music reached the highest platform possible.

It's a monkey's paw situation for me. BOC gets recognized in mainstream media, but it turns out to be propaganda

Many people don't realize or remember that Boards of Canada was very popular on /b/ in the early days 4chan. The events of GamerGate and the last two decades of identity politics in film and media resulted in many of 4chan's users growing up and into positions of power. Whether you agree with the politics or not, you shouldn't be surprised in the slightest.

Is it still really ”trending” though? It gained most of its views back in April when it was posted. I’m thinking they’re consciously promoting Inferno.

I found a story about a Sabrina Carpenter song being used in an ICE edit, she called it disgusting and asked them to never involve her again. They replied with a snarky comment that they’re not going to apologize, doubled down and used her content in another video. So they are known to troll and ragebait

I wonder how Mike and Marcus reacted. It’s almost certain no permission was given, yet I don’t think Warp will even try suing the White House. Dystopian stuff.

What's I'd LOVE to see is a full-on BOC and/or Warp response, preferably in music and visual format, but equally part of me thinks we dignify it with a reply whatsoever
