The essence of making a world war was captured here.
All we need is people who losing/lost their identity, having no future or just made a mistake with a long-term effect. Than just point out somebody or a group, who are already blamed for bad things and let them stress out.
Capitalism made it into a local problem. Everybody lives in its bubble nowadays because of the too much information we receive, they have to sort them.
This video was about meshing together those bubbles and let it out in one place as in real life or on the internet happens.
Even the by the comments beloved short guy lives in a bubble too, but he had no stress inside of it. He learned really not care about stuff, just live his life. He is just the other end.
As I see poeple are not evil. They just have no grip or control on their lives and thats what stress them out. Like if somebody hit an insect or an animal it´s start crying and moving bodyparts aimlessly.
Look at the two man fighting: One have a sport identity, other have a political identity for example; and bothered by anything else. Because all they can do is hate somebody/anything else. Loving a sport team means hating the other teams and voting for a politican means voting against everybody else.
Everybody else at Sam´s have almost nothing, that´s why they so open for the bloodbath.
As the animation goes... I can´t find anything I didn´t admire. I like the hand-drawing, the use of effects, how the sounds used.
Everything was in harmony, even the stucked record player didn´t irritated me, because it was well placed in the animation.
The metaphores works well, when money was there I kinda felt that much. If you understand the whole thing you have seen, you know deep down money doesn´t matters. It is just a bubble too.
I´ve seen a lot society critism video ending with a bloodbath, but this one show more detail and methapore than most of them. One of the best in it´s kind.
