I was thinking exactly the same and was about to comment about it until I saw your post. Yes, the protagonist's mind is so broken he is replacing them with his childhood shows. It's sad. Tragic. And this just only shows the masterfully crafted work of art which is this video. and its prequel.

oo, personally i thought it was him de-humanizing himself, to lesten the burden

We shouldn't forget about the shot with the needle shown during the part where we can hear his 'interrogation' by (probably) the CIA. I understood it in the way that they gave him a max payne like serum that together with the 'interrogation' itself brainwashed him into seeing everybody as disney characters.

Oh Now it all makes Sense

People who struggle with the present and fear the future often cloister themselves in the past. Mickey here clad his own reality in better memories from childhood to make living more bearable.

Yeah. That's why while every else's person's face is distorted into a cartoon, "Mickey"'s face retains his old features.

In a way, it represents his illusion of duty to a country that never truly existed outside of his head.

The word is "regardless."

To live with his guilt yes

Forever in pain

Mickey received a punish worse than living with his guilt. He has to live with the manifestation of his guilt haunting him forever through max.

Sorry for your loss

​@@dickrichard626 I think this is just a classic case of people being different, having different views and conotations for quite literally everything. What is profound to one person is mundane to the next. As for the animation, I don't care about the work put into it. Everything we do only matters as much as its consequences, and the consequences of animating this video are a neat psychological story in my eyes. Still more work than some of the videos in my feed. Damn I need to get off of youtube.

@dickrichard626 You make a good point. There are some videos I love and some that I hate. I wish the youtube algorithm would change to get rid of stupid youtube videos like those cringe and childish animated SCP videos. I hate those, but at the same time, I enjoy youtube videos from dj Peach Cobbler because of the ideas he talks about. You might think that he is cringe, and I can not in good faith say that you are wrong. But presumably, people still enjoy this cringe induced content, and we should present our case, but also be prepared for people to reject it. One day, maybe people will understand how to make a world without cringe, but until that day comes, we will endure the chaos of creation. (Edit: i just realized I failed to address your main point. I will correct this in the morning.)

@@dickrichard626 Uh, buddy, most people don't like videos.

​@@dickrichard626what? Because it's an animation made by one person, not your normal animation made by 4/8 animators, it's an individual work, and the whole point of this being lazily made makes no sense... did you even watch another video on his channel? This guy profundizes on weird and surreal art, which means he's not interested in money, and genuinely makes things to improve his all-kinds of art (which goes from 2D, 2D with 3D-like features, 3D, you get it) Also... uhhh... what? You dont like new stuff because it's easier to make? What are you? An anti-technologist? Why would you not like things being easier? Although... i do get your point on things requiring less effort... but you still have to appreciate that art is becoming available to more people because of this. But like... This is completely hand made and doesnt use any CGI, voices are recorded and tested and music is produced by the creators. Although i dont know what you mean with this not making sense or not getting things straight since multiple war veterans or conscripts have visited the channel and OST, reporting that they took the story seriously and understood it. BUT, again, this means that this is content of a genre, implying that some people will love it and others despise it. Last drispoval of your point. How. How the hell is this for kids. It is very clear that this animation did not find it's correct public, and the posibility is that kids were attracted to this animation, somehow werent noticed by their patents, and did not get what it was about. It is also a fact this channel is not that famous But as an ethereal snake fan i can say i do see your perspective.

Some real Full Metal Jacket vibes.

Batman was war propaganda back in ww2

Ww2, when the US were populace were still refusing to intervene, deport Jewish refugee back to Nazi Germany, when Bush grandfather is running concentration camps and profit off it and the "Americans race and silver shirt wholeheartedly support our great Aryan friends beyond the sea". That's what war propaganda suppose to be, an necessary tool to awaken whatever left of humanity in an evil country to take back controls and make it do the right thing. It was then morphed into a monstrosity that's modern day war propaganda. Oh do i pity the fools, we all men think they were smart until they listened to one of those. "Vietnam is democratic country, what are we to instil an dictatorship and refusing their right for liberty?" "There is no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq" "Everyone connected to 9/11 is an Saudi, they publicly funded everything and we invade Afghanistan" "Libya is the most prosperous, stable country in the regions, why did we funded the extremists" "The Syrians were fighting themselves, we pretended to care and let the Turks slaughtered them all" But i hear no one sayings those thing when the war started, for we all obey the machine, "Patriotic, brave, fair...
