Graffiti Philosophy: The YouTube Video.......

Graffiti Philosophy: The YouTube Video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFaGz8blpPI

This is a video illustrating the political/social commentary of public graffiti.
It starts out juxtaposing Bush with Obama - essentially one just took the kleptocratic baton from the other without missing a beat. Then it touches on the downtrodden and disenfranchised. It then moves into the mass media propaganda machine, then mindless consumerism, our oil addiction, empire's oil-centric/exploitive foreign policy, the corporate driven military industrial complex, the environmental consequences of fossil fuels, and then the evolution (fate) of man.
The soundtrack that accompanies the video is claimed to be an unreleased song by NIN entitled
"It All Fades".
