Music makes us better

Warning: Spoilers
A short, but effective animated allegory, which uses humor to tell a short parable about the effects propaganda has on people, resulting in an dehumanizing view directed those who don't share our same beliefs, and how music can bring the most different people together.

Propaganda divides the world in "Us vs. Them", feeding of our latent tribalism as species. Its purpose is to focus in our differences rather than our similarities as a way to keep people divided and easy control.

Sadly, propaganda works way too well, as it apparently appeals to our "virtues" against the "evilness" or "degeneracy" of the Other, the enemy that threatens our lifestyle and all what we care about.

The 80s elements are undeniable, but the message remains forever evergreen.

Maybe the Spirit of Peace needs to kick some sense to mankind as it happens in this short, before it's too late.
