Buddy of mine sent me what he describes as a disturbing video from his hometown. It's a threads link. I generally use yt-dlp or just straight mpv from the CLI and most things work. I can't see this, on my computer, or my crap phone. Does anyone know a trick or something for accessing this content. No I won't make a threads account. Here's the link, for what it's worth:

If it's a "disturbing" video it's probably required to login to "prove" you're an adult or some bullshit like that. Those tools would need a way to authenticate as such.

"Disturbing" in that he described it as white supremacists marching in his downtown area, while chanting "Who's streets? OUR streets", "Say his name! Charlie Kirk", then ending with a white power speech about white people being wiped out by immigrant blood. Far more disturbing than the usual blood and guts fare that gets labeled "adult". I don't need, or want really, to see it. I was more interested in bypassing the login requirement.
