Description

Made by Hans Weingartner in 2004 and not owned by me, this is a great scene with a great argument by the character Jan in the film Die fetten Jahre sind vorbei (known in English as "The Edukators" but translated better as "your days of plenty are over"). Anarchy in the UK, man!Rant starts at 3:36Text:Happy, you think theyre happy? Look around, get out of that company car and walk on the street! Anyone look happy? Or more like scared animals? Look into their living rooms, all glued to the TV listening to chic zombies speaking of happiness long gone. Drive around town youll see all the filth, the overcrowding the masses in department stores up and down like robots on escalators. Nobody knows anybody! They think happiness is an inch away but its unreachable because you stole it. Thats how it is. You know perfectly well. But I have news for you, executive: The system is overheated. Were just the forerunners, your days are almost over. Swim in your shit technology, but others are full of rage. The rage of children living in slums watching American action films. Thats one part, let see, Mental illness is rising. Serial killers, shattered souls, senseless violenceYou cant sedate them with game shows and shopping. The antidepressants wont work forever either. The people have had enough of your shit system.
