I think that youre playing dumb here and that he is playing pretend to instigate a response from the local police against the anti-genocide protestors as has been witnessed being done dozen of times to the point its a fucking sports joke
I’m imagining he is from the far past and is just now seeing the demon box in everyone’s hands. It is an artifact of evil. Like the weapons brought to Israel by Raytheon. Raytheon, where our motto is “Nowhere to run (cause you’re trapped), nowhere to hide (everything is flattened), pay us all you can and we’ll bring you genocide”
