>>85343346
all characters in wp are 2d. this guy refused to accept reality

It's about people not accepting reality.

It's similar to that japanese guy in the comic that keeps saying "My real life hasn't started yet" everyday until he dies.

I was expecting more. Is there a more personal way this could be a reflection on Sam or Charls' life or their politics? Hard to get emotionally invested in art when it doesn't mean anything to the artist.

I guess Sam hasn't fully accepted that his comedy career seems to be going nowhere right now.

>>85343346
It's about the limits of stoicism and numbing yourself, how these things leave you alienated.

what was the message here?

pls tell im a brainlet

>>85344297
i think they commented on people working regular jobs, getting fucked and "stabbed" for 10, 40 years. In correlation to what they are doing, while being poor thinking its still better than 9-5, the jail represents.

The boss skit is similar to that

The sketch is not critical of this character, he's its hero. By refusing to acknowledge the abuse he's placed under, he robs it of its power, and maintains his integrity. I think he's supposed to be portrayed as innocent of any crime, since they come arrest from his front lawn as he's mowing the lawn. Reading the song Cop Killer as literal is a mistake. The song itself is not literal either, it's about transgression and transcending inhibition and fear. "The song's not about killing a human being, but about overcoming inhumanity; destroying the machinery that turns us toward an end other than ourselves." - John Maus. His meltdown during the song is him releasing all the pent up frustration and pain caused by his life being wasted and stolen from him, and losing everything (since his home is burned down when he gets back to it.)

thanks, this is the emotional attachment I was expecting they put into that piece.

>>85344419
it's a really underappreciated show on /tv/. Probably because of the MDE fanbase.

It's the ostrich putting its head under the sand. He doesn't realise the situation He a in until he gets back to the farm and its destroyed by which time its too late.

It's a metaphor for the islamic immigration to Europe

and? why did they adopt it as their logo? Clearly not just to be edgy.

part of it is what sam's talking about here, being oblivious as time passes you by: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p978u4r-q4c

and part of it is obviously anti-authoritarianism. the john maus song at the end was originally "cop killer" before getting changed by censors to "hey moon"

Do nothing with your life from the age 18-30. Live life nihilistically and dont take responsibility for anything. You might as well have been in maximum security prison the entire time.

>It's the ostrich putting its head under the sand. He doesn't realise the situation He a in until he gets back to the farm and its destroyed by which time its too late.

Short and simple its this. Refusal to accept reality until you're forced to face it and the destructive force that comes with willful ignorance.

>It's a metaphor for the islamic immigration to Europe

Well, that is a problem.

>1. CEO scene

what does charles say when he gets stabbed? I hear "requesting brown guys I'll be done in a second"

What was the nickel in Detroit referring to?

>>85343346
Please don't be dumb.

He goes to prison innocent and for no reason and comes out a hardened symptom to the society that framed and made him. This was about police corruption and abuse of power which is inevitable in the system at hand. This was about him eventually waking up through the pain of the lost time and life and the endured unjustice and BECOMING the hero, the copkiller.

Doing 5 years of his sentence in Detroit.

>nihilism.
lolno. the issue of the meaning or lack thereof of life never arises in the sketch. it's all about confronting and coping with loss and privation, i.e. the exact territory of stoicism.

I think it's about the current predicament of white men. I assume this because of the old timey costumes and language that harkens back to American suburbia.

The guy is at the wrong place st the wrong time and gets his life fucked. He can pretend it isn't happening and that society is fine as ever, but it makes no difference. His life is ruined and it makes no difference if he accepts it or not. It's too late.

He breaksdown at the end when he finds society is gone too.

So basically, white men can have their life ruined for no reason (e.g. thoughtcrime, rape accusations, killed by racists) but they sit there rotting away pretending they don't care

>>85351028
I thought maybe it was implied from the Cop Killer song. Just reading too much into it.

I like the part where he just made an absurdistic sketch and everyone just projects their own views onto it making it way more clever than Sam intended.

>>85352339
it's not very absurdist apart from Sam's voice

I wouldn't go that far. I rather liked the Wall show, the tap water mix and black Sam Hyde. There are a few sketches I didn't care for all that much but on the whole World Peace was a genuinely interesting project that was killed off due to the politics of the lead and nothing else.

> man's life is destroyed and he doesn't even notice
this has in fact happened to every last member of my nuclear and extended family. They're dying form drugs, violence, suicide, and gluttony.
If you're of European stock and you look around at your life you'll see the same thing. Because our culture was purposefully destroyed and we didn't even notice
