The only problem i had with this was that it's not about twice as long of a video. Good stuff guys!

[muphasa]

Short and straight to the point. Spot on what's happening with society and media. Again keep up with the awesome work #Greenlight

[thejoyfuldragon]

how are literally all your shows awesome xD Please continue this, it's really good!

[HyperTheGod]

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate the aesthetics of this video?

It's like I am watching an analysis through the lens of a retrowave styled graphic novel, with the nostalgic synthwave beats of the 80s playing in the background. Love the new Wisecrack intro BTW. Purple is so underrated.

[Ethereal_Moonlight]

What’s a little scary is that this is slowly becoming reality more and more everyday.

[redtiger]

Wow, amazing that you guys were able to bring this up in a non-partisan way. Way to go Wisecrack! Love this pilot, and can't wait to see more of it.

[matthewmurphy]

Respect the connection and shoutout to 451. I also appreciate the efforts you guys take to consider all views and encourage us to live outside the comfort of convenient living. Happy to be a patron of Wisecrack.

[loags]

I wish this went a bit deeper actually

[IanDeMartino]

Very happy to see wisecrack return to the philosophical videos, rather than the sometimes vapid culture anaylsis. Please keep this kind of stuff coming!

As a fan of Fahrenheit 451, ​ it brought on a take of the book I never would've thought of. Great episode and the animation is so fantastic and reflects on what the narrator is saying. Hope to see more in the future!

I love how you guys are tying new things and I like this new show. I think this will be the Wisecrack Renaissance! Keep up the good work! You guys are the best

This channel was and is such a huge stepping stone for exploring deeper thought not only about media but the world at large.

I'm not american but so much of the english speaking media is dominated by it that it can be hard for ppl in other places to really connect with what's going on in their own country.

Thank you guys for doing what you do making these kind of discussions accessible for the average YouTube viewer ✌

[ColorsOfKique]

I could have easily watched a 30 minute video on this topic from you guys. That being said, I feel that the short and concise way that you guys did this video really worked. Keep it up!

[KorbyPonyo]

I love the visuals for this show, it looks so cool! Please have more of this. Love you Wisecrack!

I thoroughly enjoy self-reflection even if it seems like mental flaggellation and self-deprecation at times. It's important we feel these emotions and consider the worst; we're wrong!

Keep it up please.

[bgarnreiter]

Honestly, incredibly thought provoking, and an incredible style! Thank you for all of your work, and for keeping the flat earthers on YouTube at bay ;)

[leonardoguerra]

Great video! Usually all wisecrack videos are very high quality but this is on another level. Can't wait to see more of this

[TheThing]

loving the art style of the short. The content that goes along with it is spot on with the theme. Keep up the good work.

[jamesdiaz]

Wisecrack never ceases to amaze me with how you can take content with some consider dated and bring it to fruition with events that are occurring now, and how these books or philosophers are relevant. Forever seeking my next dosage of Wisecrack.

[benlawrence]

WOW, This video really made me think about the concept of media and its place in society. Thank you Wisecrack
