How Did He Know?

Unfollowed you for this one bud

He's using terms that weren't common until recently, such as "misinformation," "far-right," and "social media sites." Okay, maybe he's just that psychic. But he doesn't know the word "emoji"? Something is rotten in Denmark.

David Bowie - wearing a similar shirt, glasses and hairstyle - famously discussed the future of the internet when interviewed by Jeremy Paxman for Newsnight in 1999. However, this is not him. Do you know where this post originated and who it is?

He is a comedian and it was a sketch.

People had internet in 1999. They were already sharing cat video's for 5+ years already. It wasn't hard to predict

The woman running this page is an idiot sharing without verifying posts. This man is a modern youtube comedy creator. Even grok is an idiot too and marks this post as authentic 1990s. You’re welcome

The funny part is that I'm watching this video sitting on a toilet‼️👀💀

BS. Not even same shirt from original interview

Time traveller.....

And were back again 😂

Fake. I wondered about that bullshit about immigration for a second lol.

The question is HOW did he know that so specifically. Note his opinion too. I predicted most of what's happening now 35yrs ago. It's all planned.

Because that interview never happened 🤡

100% FAKE. No one know phones will have this much capability in 1999. Even Steve Jobs. STFU.

cos its not from 20 years ago and is fake as fuck

By "Far Right", he meant, Bidden & Obama right ?

@grok Is this a fake ?

Fake 1999 clip or not, it blueprints the dopamine trap DARPA prototyped in the 90s, endless scrolls, emoji crack, ads that know your soul. They didn't predict; they engineered it. Palantir's been harvesting the data since 2009. Sweet dreams scrolling.

Who is that guy? I can not place the face with a name.

I think time travel has been around for a bit

Do you seriously believe this is real? 😂🤦🏻‍♂️🤡

The viral clip claiming to show a 1999 BBC Newsnight interview predicting smartphone addiction, endless scrolling, emojis, social‑media arguments, and phone‑in‑bed behavior is not real. All credible sources agree on the same points: • The video is a spoof, created by British comedian Michael Spicer. It is not an authentic 1999 BBC interview. 12345 • It has been misattributed online as: "David Bowie predicting the future of the internet in 1999" Bob Geldof giving a strangely accurate 1999 interview • In reality, Spicer recorded a satirical monologue, edited it into archival Newsnight footage, and inserted himself impersonatingBowie. • The real 1999 Bowie–Paxman Newsnight interview did discuss the cultural impact of the emerging internet, but did not contain predictions about smartphones, scrolling, social‑media addiction, cat videos, targeted ads, or far‑right misinformation, which appear only in the spoof.

Jim morris from the doors predicted our music would be all samples also

Predictive-programming, double ugh

I'd more impressed if this was taken in the 70's The Internet was a thing by the mid 90's, so not to far fetched But he was almost right... blaming the right instead of the left? 🤔

the interviewer looking at him like: 'are you mad?' . we looking at him: 'how did he knew?'

Sad that people believe this kind of horse droppings... I guess someone dumb enough to follow you does.

This is odd, "scrolling" was introduced by the first iPhone in 2007. No way he could have known this without travelling in time. Grok says this video is real.

Bollocks. That is NOT Confessions of a Window Cleaner.

Satirie parodying David Bowie's 1999 BBC Newsnight interview, where comedian Mark Spicer impersonates him predicting modern internet phenomena like social media addiction, misinformation, and targeted ads, but it's falsely presented as authentic footage. @lassie_wee19499

@Charlie59845959 David Bowie in disguise!🤫

🤣😂🤣 You Tards keep trying. You're not good at this.

@Laflare02 this so fake

Look at the hand sign, he’s in the club. That’s why he knows.
