That last point about absolution hit hard; I wasn't expecting that. My friends and I have discussed Disney's impact on our early ideas about authority, so it was interesting to see that topic show up again here. Great video as always.
I know we discussed this, but I really think this is my favorite one you've done so far. I just love the drama!
Excellent video, as always!
Such an interesting video and a take I would’ve never considered! Great video 🙂
Also lol I agree trains are amazing (&the first step to communism) ❣️🚇
Excellent work. Absolutely loved the callbacks to trains.
"is this your excuse that the subject was literally neurodivergent and a minor" I am sobbing i choked on my drink thank yhou
All the likes, all the shares! Your best video yet? Maybe after “Decolonizing Adventure”, but still excellent work!

Average American: I'm not political, damn commies, I'm just waiting for Star Trek's utopia to become a thing.
You guys have a really stupid left right compass. You basically just say everyone icky doesn't believe like you. Pathe'sad should be a word
Oh no you can’t lecture other peoples children on sexuality without parental consent, how terrible. Honestly if that’s anti gay maybe that’s on the movement not the bill, it’s just a shame that something good has been twisted by corporate evils
Great video, top notch presentation, and insightful analysis. The mean girls skit in particular had me rolling. 👍
This was riveting
