No one mentions it because it's the same meaning as the surrounding lines. Socko's a hardline communist, "free-market capitalists are infiltrating the strong-government party to impose nationalist authoritarianism" is par for the course.
Mick Foley is the Wrestler you are referring to, more specifically Mankind. The sock here was actually inspired by Dutch comedian Hans Teeuwen. Bo references it in a Greenroom interview with some other comedians.
Yeah, but on a side note, Mick Foley was such a renaissance wrestler...Mankind, Cactus Jack, Dude Love, he was the commissioner for a while, such dedication to his craft...I remember that one time (IIRC) Undertaker tossed him off the top of the cage in a Hell in a Cell match...and all those hardcore no holds barred matches...def. one of my old favorites...
I am a horrible mom, I watched this with my four year old in the room. She loves Socko, of course she doesn't understand what he is talking about. Yet.
NewFutureFlash is spreading the good word of Bo, I'm here for it. Welcome to the madness, Ralph!! I liked how you really seemed to think about it and take it in after it was over.
And he is now a 3 time Emmy winner :) The sock is an homage most likely to a Dutch comedian named Hans Teeuwen. Look up Hans Teeuwen - Live in London - Little Ronnie
Also for any that doubt or don't realize. Any instrument that has or will ever be played in a bo burnham video is played by bo burnham man won 3 Grammy was Nominated for 6 because of this.
I wish I could experience Bo Burnham for the first time (actually known about him since early youtube). But it's crazy how you can watch this video for instance and think "Oh he's kind of woke, but he's light hearted" and then the second song you hear be "words words words" and be like "okay....is he a funny rapper with mad bars?" and then hear "all eyes on me" or "that funny feeling" and think "okay this guy's an artist". And by the time you go down the Bo rabbit hole of his old cringelord early youtube videos to his specials to "Inside". I mean I wish I could take that rollercoaster with everyone, best I can get is watching reactions.
To my man on the right, don't worry about the camera. Cross those legs instead of hands,. and be present and listen and truly react instead of thinking about perception. Ya'll got this!
My dude can’t stop staring at himself on the monitor lol. Might wanna consider turning it the other way when he’s on cam 😆 ahhh jk jk I do the same shit
I feel like the extra dark layer on top of this song is that in order for Bo to send his message he feels he needs to put on a sock to perform it because the mainstream population is so inherently dumb that they need something as stupid as a sock on a hand in order to be entertained enough to pay attention. That's my thought though I could be wrong lol.
hey can you guys check out Nica Libres At Dusk by Ben Howard, great song, not sure what genre you're into but i think you'd appreciate it, lovely sounding song, thanks!
Flash's back must be hurting. He carried this whole "reaction." This guy was just like "cool, a song with a puppet." Didn't even try to dive into the message. Reaction was whack af
Reaction doesn't fit. You keep pausing, that's commentary. Also Mick Foley was the wrestler you're talking about. Also socko is based off a Swedish comedian. It has nothing to do with Mick Foley. Socko is based off of hanz teeuwin. A comedian.
“This will not be shown in classrooms”
But it should be
Right it will not be lol 😂
I love how everyone misses the "neoliberal fascists are destroying the left" line. Bo be paying attention

Less than 10% of Americans are that tuned into politics that they would catch that.
What do you mean though. The status quo the best kind of quo. More of the same misery for each generation please!
They are tho.
@@UnsalteHash of course. Fuckery all the way through.
i really like the detail of how Bo uses his position of power to "discipline" socko, thats a whole message in itself

You’re not a horrible mom and it’s always good to get reminded of the good old days lol
5:00 If you're still wondering 2 years later, it was Mankind/Mick Foley lol (My favorite wrestler)
Show this guy BB song "Comedy" from inside, it will blow his mind! thanks man, i just subbed!
I'll have to check that for sure!
@@HatleyHour thank u bro.
Was waiting for the drop to hit your buddy, and I wasn't disappointed, top quality reaction.
Comrade Bo educating us about the evils of capitalism.
I don't know what you're talking about. Socko is the real activist here.
@@hermesthegreek5247 As you know, Bo wrote it all, which you could see as all of this being a part the characters plan!
@@SicMvndvsCreatvsEst8 Imagine downplaying the impact Socko had in modern sociology.
NewFutureFlash is spreading the good word of Bo, I'm here for it. Welcome to the madness, Ralph!! I liked how you really seemed to think about it and take it in after it was over.
Its great to see people find bo and pass the works on.
And he is now a 3 time Emmy winner :) The sock is an homage most likely to a Dutch comedian named Hans Teeuwen. Look up Hans Teeuwen - Live in London - Little Ronnie
yep. He states that on Paul Provenza's Green Room 2.01
Liked, commented, and subscribed for more Bo! Loving all these NEW FUTURE reactors!
Thank you Bro! Welcome to the squad and we're going to keep the content coming
Also for any that doubt or don't realize. Any instrument that has or will ever be played in a bo burnham video is played by bo burnham man won 3 Grammy was Nominated for 6 because of this.
Mankind and Socko!!! Wow - that brought me back!
Yesss, Mankind. Haven't thought about him or his sock in years lmao
truly has to be in the class room. kisd have to know the truth and have the chance to ask questions... love
Mankind, the Rock and Sock connection when they were a tag team for a bit. One of the best portions of the attitude era.
I agree!
The immediate backspace gets me.
Bo doesn't produce anything boring
That wrestler was Mankind. He was a beast!!
Edit: the sock got the finishing move off, but it didn't finish the pin.
More Bo
No
that shit hit bro on the right pretty hard lol
You're either talking about Cactus Jack, Dude Love, Mankind or Mick Foley.
But in all seriousness. GOAT tag team. Rock N Sock

what you got from this video was "oh he's kind of woke" lol. jesus christ this country is fucked
I think it is meant to show people that what you are taught as a kid is way different than what actually is going on.
Theres some random science teacher somewhere showing kids the first half of this video lol
Hit you with that mad follow. Love the group of all you guys !
Thank you we really appreciate you!
To my man on the right, don't worry about the camera. Cross those legs instead of hands,. and be present and listen and truly react instead of thinking about perception. Ya'll got this!
Constructive words only my guys. Subbed!
He's gonna write music for sesame street apparently
The wrestler who had socko was mankind (mick foley / dude love / cactus Jack)
Yes Mick Foley thank you for that
Hell yea Bo out here doing the real life lessons
My dude can’t stop staring at himself on the monitor lol. Might wanna consider turning it the other way when he’s on cam 😆 ahhh jk jk I do the same shit
Lol we had literally just talked about that after the recording 🤣
Mick Foley/Mankind/Dude Love is the wrestler. Hilarious watching you think you are watching a wiggles rip off then get rug pulled HARD XD XD XD XD
Brooo, Sad by Bo Burnham fr it's a lit one
Yesssssss brudder!
I feel like the extra dark layer on top of this song is that in order for Bo to send his message he feels he needs to put on a sock to perform it because the mainstream population is so inherently dumb that they need something as stupid as a sock on a hand in order to be entertained enough to pay attention.

Unrelated to this video, but have you guys checked out Dance Gavin Dance before? I would love to see a reaction to them!
No I don't think either of us have but now I'll have to check it out
This dude netfeaturesflash collab with everyone lmao
Your background color scheme is a bit to accurate
hey can you guys check out Nica Libres At Dusk by Ben Howard, great song, not sure what genre you're into but i think you'd appreciate it, lovely sounding song, thanks!
Thank for that suggestion we'll take a look at it
@@HatleyHour thank you, his music is very much focused on lyrics and creating a strong ambience with the instruments he uses, i think you'd enjoy it!
i wish the other guy was talking here, he seemed to have more on his mind.
Mankind
Is doomed
You know I love both harry and bo and I'm giving both videos a thumbs up... but wth is this going to be the puppet channel? lol
I love a lot of your reacts. This i cant do. Has nothing to do with his content. I cant handle his voice.
Mankind, Mick Foley
Can't cancel Bo. He don't work for anyone.
Flash's back must be hurting. He carried this whole "reaction." This guy was just like "cool, a song with a puppet." Didn't even try to dive into the message. Reaction was whack af
Flash introduced me to Bo on this video never really heard of him before, but Thank you for watching tho!
Reaction doesn't fit. You keep pausing, that's commentary.
Also Mick Foley was the wrestler you're talking about. Also socko is based off a Swedish comedian. It has nothing to do with Mick Foley.
Socko is based off of hanz teeuwin. A comedian.
Everything you guys have insinuated is wrong.
