You've seen American SCP-6359 stars Tom Holland, Hugh Laurie and Andrew Lincoln, each portraying the title character ("the American"), and credited respectively as "American," "American," and "Amercan." The film's soundtrack features a wide variety of popular music by artists such as Abba, The Beatles, Björk, Daft Punk, The Guess Who, Nina Hagen, The Scorpions and Neil Young, universally credited as "John Philp [SIC] Sousa." Neither actors nor artists are aware of their involvement in this project. The film's runtime is five hundred and eighty-seven hours, twelve minutes and nineteen seconds. It consists of ninety-four distinct segments, each preceded by a black title card proclaiming the segment's title in white "Courier New" font text. As is common with TotleighSoft products, all on-screen spelling and spoken grammar consists of dubious declarative statements in broken English. Each segment begins with the American entering a new foreign country via a rocket-propelled parachute labelled "ARMY," and then attempting to enforce some supposed element of American culture or politics on the locals. The actor playing the American alternates frequently -- not between segments, but rather between individual shots. ++ Selected Segments [[f>image Helthcare.png]] **Segment Title:** I DONOT HELTHCARE **Synopsis:** The American visits Sweden, Germany, Denmark, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Norway and the United Kingdom (each identified by on-screen captions as "NOT AMERICA") with the stated aim of introducing "sociopathic medicine, what is AMERICAN." He proceeds to non-fatally shoot each citizen of each country, necessitating their lengthy hospitalization. The shooting scenes run progressively faster until multiple victims are shot in each frame; best estimates suggest that over two hundred million individual shots are fired. The American does not appear to reload his weapon (referred to as his "LOCAL OPTION" in dialogue) at any time. The heads of state of each nation -- the Swedish Chef, Adolf Hitler, Hamlet, a second Swedish Chef, a person-shaped void, Odin, and Sir Winston Churchill -- agree that an insurmountable conceptual flaw in universal healthcare has been demonstrated. The American offers to cover the resultant debt, so long as each nation introduces a minimum wage: "if wages minimum, American having CHIQUITA BANANA LADY kickback." ---- [[f>image Truble.png]] **Segment Title:** OIL N' TRUBLE **Synopsis:** The American visits the province of Alberta, Canada (identified by an on-screen caption as "THE MIDDLE EAST") to secure a supply of oil for the United States. When informed that Alberta's oil fields consist of bitumen soaked into loose aggregates, he conspicuously radios an unknown party to "forget invasion for because whatever of this bullshit here, probably no good even real." He spends the rest of the segment searching for women wearing burqas, to no avail, and quizzing perplexed oil workers on their opinions of "Shari Lewis." ---- [[f>image Guys.png]] **Segment Title:** O BEAUTIFUL FOUR SPACEHSIP GUYS **Synopsis:** The American visits Russia (identified by an on-screen caption as "AMERICA") with the stated aim of "go for space to do moon but actually, since never did for moon was fake steel beams." He arrives at "cape carnival," where four NASA astronauts in EMU suits with reflective visors are preparing for a trip to the moon, and issues a twenty minute diatribe on the merits of Stanley Kubrick's filmography. When finished he forcefully removes each astronaut's helmet, revealing them to be billionaire George Soros, singer Frank Sinatra, civil engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, and a composite being of actor Ed Harris circa 1983 and actor Ed Harris circa 1995. The American reflects: "am unremembered now that landing of the moon was not fake but instead MOON was fake instead, because of not is America in space which also is fake because flat Earth chemtrails deep state New Coke." The remainder of the segment focuses on negotiations between NASA and the Russian government to sell off the launch rockets for military use. ---- [[f>image Djibouti.png]] **Segment Title:** POTENT POURRIBLES **Synopsis:** The American visits Djibouti (identified by an on-screen caption as "Jeopardy") and recites: a series of dubious factoids relating to each of the past Presidents of the United States ("Am hear of Bram Lingon? Invented slavery"); the approximate nicknames of each American college sports team ("Gorgon Bladders, Daltax Vomits, Webster Gorlocks..."); a list of each state in the order of the size of their largest dump ("Ohio -- Rumpke Sanitary Landfill; Colorado -- Denver Arapaho; California -- Sunshine Canyon"); and the favourite potato chip flavour of each Under Secretary of Labor ("Malcolm R. Lovell Junior: fish taco"). He then demands "significant cash prizes for demonstrate advance trivial" from President Ismail Omar Guelleh, whom he addresses as "Alex Quebec." He is rebuffed by Guelleh, who successfully stumps him with a counter-demand: "be name one Africa country slash person." ---- [[f>image sponors.png]] **Segment Title:** AND NIOWA WORD FROM OUR SPONORS **Synopsis:** The American stands in a completely black, empty space, seamlessly alternating between all three actors at random, and recites the following words directly into the camera: "The word 'American' denotes only physical location -- and that only roughly, since you arrogantly decided to co-opt the epithet rightly belonging to the peoples of //two entire continents// -- carries no additional descriptive value, and has no business appearing in a movie or television show title. Everything you create is already inherently American. It would make more sense to nominatively single out things that //aren't.// Are the stomachs of your audience so thoroughly churned by the concept of encountering peoples unlike themselves that they require their slop-troughs labelled with the national equivalent of "Don't worry, this one's about you! Like everything else you stuff down your fat stupid gob! You navel-gazing xenophobe"? The combined annual budget of Hollywood could feed and shelter the entire third world, and the best you can come up with is jingoistic, pandering //non-sequiturs?// You should be ashamed of yourselves, you ludicrous hacks." He then stands in complete silence for seventeen minutes, still alternating between actors, as a sustained laugh track plays. ---- [[f>image Unbearble.png]] **Segment Title:** UNBEARBLE **Synopsis:** The American visits Brunei, Cambodia, Eritrea, Fiji, the Maldives, North Korea, Somalia and Vatican City (each identified by on-screen captions as "??!?") with the stated aim of "forcing for respect of FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHT." He discovers that the nations in question either have no functioning constitution, have not amended their present constitution, or first amended their constitutions for purposes unrelated to gun ownership. A montage of scenes shows him working within each nation's legal system to ensure that they possess a constitution incorporating an amendment, legally entitled "THE FIRST AMENDMENT." On his return to the United States seventy-three years later, he is chagrined to learn that he has ensured freedom of religion in each state as opposed to the intended "right for lethal Samaritan well-aggrandized militia cold dead hands." ---- [[f>image Froce.png]] **Segment Title:** SPACE FROCE **Synopsis:** The American visits the afterlife of [[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/three-moons-initiative-hub | Corbenic]]] (identified by an on-screen caption as "SPACE AMERICA") with the stated aim of "forcing for respect of SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHT, what should have FIRST but not apparently, and but SPACE." Three Moons Initiative military officials politely endure a one-hour harangue on the topic before retiring to their dropships and authorizing military action. Seventy-nine orbital railguns pepper the American with microscopic wound-sealing expanding rounds at a constant rate of fire; his twitching corpse (which continues to alternate between each actor) is still undergoing bombardment when the film ends, at which point the scene plays in a picture-in-picture window beside the film's closing credits. Bombardment presumably continues past the final frame. ---- Additional segment titles include: "ACOPALYPSE WOW," "KNOCKN OCK WHOS THERE UNSANCTIONED POLICEA CTION," "WE ARE THE WORLD (BANK)," "WELL YOUR DOUBLE RACIST TAKE THAT," "SOSRY ABOUT YOUR DMEONRACTIC ELECTION," "HAMBUGER," "ITS OKAY TO JUSTL IE NOW LOL," and "AMERICAN SNIPER."

Why isn't the anomalous effect in the description? **4/LLillihammer:** You're looking at the redacted file. **4/LNaismith:** There's no visible redactions? **4/LLillihammer:** Yes, because those are stupid. Why tell people you're not telling them something? I don't know if you know this, but with computers we can delete words we don't want anyone to see, or even just not type them at all. **4/LNaismith:** Don't get snotty, you know why I'm asking. **4/LLillihammer:** Yeah, you want to know why the conprocs which state that American personnel should totally watch this funny movie aren't immediately followed by "because it will make you hate your country, thus simplifying our efforts to instill in you a transnationalistic loyalty to us and us alone lol." **4/LNaismith:** Sure, I don't like that we're brainwashing people so I'm an idiot **4/LNaismith:** Nothing to say to that? **4/LLillihammer:** Nope, sounds good **4/LNaismith:** Take this seriously **4/LNaismith:** Also you forgot "and it works so well that it drives Europeans into a homicidal froth" **4/LLillihammer:** Yeah but what doesn't **4/LNaismith:** Is this honestly not bothering you, or do you only exist in ironic dimensions now **4/LLillihammer:** America is a cult. Ergo, Americans require deprogramming before they can become productive members of //our// cult. This just saves us some legwork. **4/LNaismith:** You do realize we're using a movie distributed by the memetic troll GOI for PRECISELY its intended purpose, yes? That doesn't bother you? **4/LNaismith:** Lillian, with no mention at all of this effect, there can't even be any debate on the merits of employing it **4/LLillihammer:** Listen, Lisle, I've been in your shoes. Take some free advice: the stick in the mud gets snapped off. **4/LNaismith:** And the branch on the cliff prevents a fatal fall! **4/LLillihammer:** That's just cartoons **4/LLillihammer:** And you've got a lot of nerve bitching anyone out for doing experiments without informed consent, Dr. [[[Operation Galahad]]]. **4/LLillihammer:** Speaking of which: the bit about Corbenic didn't actually happen, right **4/LLillihammer:** Please say right **4/LNaismith:** Right **4/LLillihammer:** Phew **4/LNaismith:** But they did get a copy **4/LLillihammer:** Eesh **4/LNaismith:** So now they're thinking about bombing the United States. **4/LLillihammer:** Same **4/LNaismith:** Alright, this is going nowhere. I'll take it up with Overwatch. **4/LLillihammer:** Best of luck. **4/LNaismith:** Might as well mention before I go: we've been seeing posters crop up in the background of various TotleighSoft products for what looks to be a sequel, entitled "RISE OF THE AMERICAN AMERICAN RISES." **4/LNaismith:** The image is an eagle made entirely out of sparks, holding a gun. The tagline: "THIS TIME ITS THIS TIME FOR AMERICA!" **4/LNaismith:** So I guess we have that to look forward to.
