I'm a simple man. It's a funny video with armed penguins launching missiles

The penguins had really cute uniforms and fuzzy hats, and the whole thing was visually amusing. It didn't occur to me that it was possible for a human to take it any other way than that. My bad?

It’s a funny video. Even more funny/interesting is that as of 2022,
HokieGator • 04/10/25 01:54 PM ET
The penguins deny they exported anything
AirborneHokie96 • 04/10/25 02:14 PM ET
Like you should really trust a penguin's word**
Happy Dog • 04/10/25 02:46 PM ET
Yep. Most likely someone is/was trying to find a loophole in shipping.
HokieGator • 04/10/25 02:16 PM ET
Or some folks fat fingered the data in the customs declaration
AirborneHokie96 • 04/10/25 02:19 PM ET
Shakes fist @ Pittsburgh. **
Guy LeDouche • 04/10/25 01:52 PM ET
First shot has been fired by the penguins
AirborneHokie96 • 04/10/25 02:11 PM ET
That is somewhat amusing
RTFC • 04/10/25 01:43 PM ET
It was done via AI**
AirborneHokie96 • 04/10/25 02:14 PM ET
That's better - still took some time**
RTFC • 04/10/25 03:54 PM ET
Time is irrelevant until A.I. decides to unionize.**

Simple answer. Those territories are used by some that attempt to go around
HokieGator • 04/10/25 02:05 PM ET
AH sucking on the justify the insane actions. Gotcha...**
UTPr0sim • 04/10/25 08:26 PM ET
Actually....they weren't. It's based off incorrect trade paperwork
AirborneHokie96 • 04/10/25 02:16 PM ET
That’s great. So nobody gets harmed. And the error in data gets fixed.
HokieGator • 04/10/25 02:18 PM ET
Yeah
RTFC • 04/10/25 04:07 PM ET
The Penguins were defamed and villainized. **
AirborneHokie96 • 04/10/25 02:20 PM ET
They deserve it. They elected this guy as their leader.
HokieGator • 04/10/25 02:25 PM ET
Oops. Pic…**
HokieGator • 04/10/25 02:27 PM ET
But weren't some using these island to get around taxes and tariffs? **
RhinoVT • 04/10/25 02:36 PM ET

JoesterVT • 04/10/25 02:48 PM ET

JoesterVT • 04/10/25 01:00 PM ET
Unless you actually heard the reason.**

JoesterVT • 04/10/25 01:24 PM ET
Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot may have taken the video a different way.**
