About this video
This video essay is for all my yearners. It's a way for me to discuss my grievances with our capitalist system and cope with its impact on everyday people. I pray that the advice I gave can help somebody out. Btw, just because I critique capitalism doesn't make me a Marxist. Sorry for being so political.
