"The Manny will not be televised" is a phrase used as a chant for revolution, particularly in regards to police reformation. It was coined by user @themannyspotted on TikTok at an Oregon protest sometime in early-mid 2020, and is a reference to both the 1970 song/poem "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" by Gil Scott-Heron, and the Diary of a Wimpy Kid character Manny Heffley.
The phrase is typically used as either a chant at a police reformation/Black Lives Matter protest, or as a social media caption for pictures of political graffiti featuring Manny Heffley's head, in support of the movement.
"See that Black Lives Matter graffiti? The Manny will not be televised!"
This post will not age well. That is because of a phenomenon known as the curse of Tippercanoe. This curse says that every 20 years, the president will suffer a misfortune of being assassinated during their term. This started with William Henry Harrison in 1840 who died a month into his term, and so on. Ronald Reagan is the only president to survive this curse
