The messages presented by society make it clear that we must be strong, violent, powerful, if we want to get anywhere in life. Weakness is looked upon with disgust. We must be willing to dominate over the lesser people, and assert ourselves in situations to take control. If we don't, we will end up like the pitiful prey of the lion, falling victim to our fellow man. Competition, warfare, and disease are the world's way of weeding out the weaker people, leaving only the strong to survive. Violence and combat are glorified in our movies, videogames, and other media, instilling this idea in the minds of children. The images in this video are all taken from nature, or media, which show that this is the "natural" order of the world, and that survival of the fittest truly does exist in the society.

wow. very powerful. it is interesting that it comes right before the message of the googoo dolls..or after as the blog sets it up. The images of the kids with the guns is particularly effective. I also like or fear the line - "so I took what i hated and made it a part of me." - elmeer
