This video is for the weak. The ones who are talked to in this video. The ones that don't fight a generalization. I don't respect the audience this video is for, and therefore, I don't respect the video either. Good massage or not.

Something can be cheesy and cliched and still have a good massage. Look at some love songs, for example. But that something cannot address an audience that doesn't have the wit to realize that they're living a fucked up life - the massage is absolutely worthless because of its worthless audience.

Change comes from self-realization deep within. Not pointless and useless videos.

I'm just dumbfounded by this.

I... I mean.... every singe public service announcement and after school special is exactly the same...

Example:

The Texting while Driving PSA, is that for the weak who can't learn to fight texting while driving?

Wear a seatbelt: For the weak who can't muster the ability to pull a strap over themselves?

Don't speed: For the weak since they can't alleviate their foot from the pedal for 3 seconds.

If you are complaining about the video for expressing to these audiences that these generalizations are not true, then you have to complain about everything else.

Or are you just insulted because you think the video mocks you?

The difference is...

This video talks about a whole lifestyle, formed over years. It doesn't change easily, if at all.

The others are just addressing nothing but common sense.

And yeah, this video is insulting, putting me in the same box with the pathetic people talked about in it.
