Karen Bass Thinks Missing Teeth Are LA’s Biggest Problem

Last week, filmmaker Charles Curran posted a viral AI-generated video that now looks less like satire and more like prophecy. 

In the video—boosted by Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt—Mayor Karen Bass is transformed into a full Joker—green hair, purple suit, permanent grin—presiding over a burning, chaotic Los Angeles. 

Pratt swoops in as Batman to save the city. Gov. Gavin Newsom appears as an out-of-touch French royal scarfing cake while the state collapses. Kamala Harris chugs vodka. The video, captioned “LA is worth saving—Vote Spencer Pratt,” exploded across X and went mega-viral within hours.

Exactly one week later, on May 12, Bass became the meme. Speaking about the city’s homeless crisis, she said: “How many people who are unhoused that you meet have no teeth at all? They don’t have teeth. Why? Because meth rots your teeth. You can’t succeed without teeth. So there needs to be comprehensive healthcare provided to people.”

Translation: you can’t succeed without a smile. The same mayor whose AI version was already cackling as the Joker just told the world that the biggest obstacle facing 75,000 unhoused Angelenos is missing molars—not the meth, fentanyl, mental illness, or policy failures that put them there.

The Joker has always been obsessed with smiles. “Why so serious?” he asks. “Let’s put a smile on that face.”
