The Simpsons predicted the assault on the United States Capitol that ended in tragedy

Hours of extreme tension lived in the United States, when supporters of Donald Trump stormed the Capitol while lawmakers were in session to certify Joe Biden’s triumph in the next president. One day marked by tragedy which, on the other hand, for many marks a more accomplished prediction of The Simpsons.

It was an unprecedented event in nearly 250 years that no one thought they would ever experience, let alone at that time.

Supporters stormed the US Congress to prevent Vice President Mike Pence’s vote count and showed the worst face of fanaticism.

Terrifying images have circulated around the world showing armed people inside the compound, vexations of institutional symbols, broken windows, explosives, clashes with security forces and even the death of a woman. .

The toll of Wednesday’s attack was four people killed and at least 14 police officers injured, they entrusted to last minute local authorities. In addition, we are talking about more fifty arrests.

What few imagined was that a recent episode of The Simpsons would once again become a prediction fulfilled.

The chapter Little House of Horror XXXI, from season 32, is precisely marked by the elections in the United States, but no longer with an apocalyptic vision of January 2021 with clashes, destruction and chaos precisely on the day of Biden’s inauguration.

You can see Homer simpson on a house, with armor and, in the background, a practically destroyed city. Even among the flames, the machines seem to be seen with the aim, perhaps, of annihilating the survivors. A true apocalypse.

Once again, reality takes a sad shortcut to coincide with the fiction created by Matt Groening and in social networks the comparison with the animated series was not long in coming.
