Cobra Commander: People trust television. It’s their friend! They believe what television tells them! About the news, the weather…or G.I. Joe! Don’t you see? We control the creation of truth!

i love this scene! 

‘Voice and picture sssynthesisss’

You guys !!

Cobra Commander teaches us the value of good old fashioned propaganda and fake news ;)

I wonder if there’s a market in the G.I. Joe universe for “Cobra Cuts” of famous movies that Cobra sliced up for propaganda in this episode.  

“Like, yeah, I know the Cobra Cut is objectively horrible, but that was the version I saw when I was a kid and none of the other cuts feel right…”

And then there are people who saw the Cobra Cuts for the first time and never realized they were Cobra Cuts and they just go through life thinking that’s how the movies ended, and then they see the original version and are like *spits out drink* “What the fuck!?”

What I’m trying to get at is that the Mandela Effect must be out of control in the Sunbow Verse, and Cobra probably did more lasting damage to American society with shitty movies than they did with all the M.A.S.S. Devices and Weather Dominators in the world.  That, and the lasting impact of giving the world Cold Slither and then retiring them after a single album that to my knowledge consisted entirely of one song.

I have a lot of feelings about this clip that I’m still sorting out; the main one is this is the scariest I have ever found Cobra Commander.

I would say top 3 scariest CC moments from the toon in no particular order:

1. The above clip.

2. That time he summoned an eldritch horror and promised it “sacrifices undreamed of” if it would just kill Serpentor for him.

3. Though kind of undercut by Cobra’s incompetent cartography department, CC’s delivery in this clip is pretty cold blooded:
