I watched the whole thing. Wow.
But I think i'm not the audience for the video.
Who is, do you think? Cuz it ain't me either. I never want to see that again in my life.
I didn't think they were women, I thought they were robots. But I did feel sorry for them.

Pretty much, yes. That is exactly what it feels like.
