i am sure others will say this better/more cohesively but this was the general narrative i got from All That:

The black parade gets pulled back to perform + also be the ones narrating/directing executions. they are also the ones providing a soundtrack to the nuclear war that is going on around them.

Gerard is resisting this, as seen by how he mocks the guy with the rose and gets slapped for it, then takes off his jacket and reads a book and then gets literally manhandled back into his jacket for teenagers.

teenagers is very specifically the soundtrack to propaganda the band is being forced to perform, with commercials/reality tv/talk show clips going on behind them.

this is followed up by a an angry rendition of disenchanted, where the very prominent dictator and flag imagery serve as an example of exactly what the band is disenchanted about/what they oppose but are being forced to promote.

In famous last words the band, lead by gerard, make a stand against the dictator and refuse to participate. as a result gerard is executed onstage and the rest of the band dragged away to meet a similar fate.

EDITED TO ADD:

prev yes this is an important addition!! especially bc the deer was sort of the symbol of draag but!!! it decayed!!! it rotted away to nothing!!! there’s definitely meaning there as well! ​like. rogue 1 kinda vibes. they all died but their resistance was instrumental in bringing it down.

Things cats were right about all along:

Fuck staying hydrated by drinking enough water - eat! more! wet! food! (watermelon, cucumbers, SOUP!)

Feels great to be really high up in your house where you can see the whole place (loft bed loft bed loft bed loft bed!)

Express yourself as clearly as possible when people are touching you and you don't want them to.

Optional, but you can also express yourself clearly when your people are not touching you and you want them to.

Sometimes it's important to just go "hmm. actually, I don't care" and wander off.

You don't have to be the strongest or toughest to defend yourself, it's enough to just be difficult enough to not be worth the trouble.

Ghosts will eventually leave if you stare at them for long enough.

I'm in awe of how we ran historical revisionism on the civil rights movement so bad that people truly believe it was quiet self-sacrifcial non-disruptive christ-like activism that forced progress and not — like — the incredible economic pressure of boycotts and outbreaks of illegal civil disobedience

Yapping to the choir but eughhh it burns me up girl effective protests have to be loud and inconvenient for change to happen because silent cries die in the dark that's the entire pointtt

You shouldn’t date or become serious friends/partners with someone if you can’t stomach the thought of being stuck in a car or train with them for 16 hours.

[what-even-is-thiss]

Here’s my logic:

You should be able to work together to solve unexpected problems like fixing a flat tire or getting lost in an unfamiliar station

You should feel comfortable and safe enough around this person that you can sit in comfortable silence

You should be able to keep each other interested and deal with each others boredom in a healthy way

If you’re gonna form a long term partnership with someone you should probably be able to tolerate each other while locked in a small box for a few hours

These tags are hilarious even though I don’t think you intended them to be.

*pulls European closer* The most populous countries in the world are China, India, the United States, Indonesia, Pakistan, Nigeria, and Brazil in that order, with these seven nations alone making up 48.16% of the world population. You may note with the aid of a map that many of these nations are quite large, and would take several days of travel to go across either in cars or on boats. Almost half of the world's population lives in places where you can travel in a cramped vehicle for days and still be within the country. Your worldview is limited and Europe is a tiny outlier in travel time and standards for international relations.

Yes! The whole point was they were just kids. They were kids behaving like kids. So Juliet is easily swayed and Romeo is a fickle teenager who falls in “love” at the drop of a hat. The point is that if their families weren’t sworn enemies, this probably would have played out very melodramatically with tears and teenage heartbreak. But no one would have died. The point was that this family feud took your average teenage love affair and made it into a big tragic mess. What would have been just a bad breakup for the both of them to get over in a couple weeks became a secret marriage and tragic deaths instead.
