  • Free Iran!!!

  • Obama is ruining this country. this video applies to the us as well. it makes perfect sense of how a government should run. In my opinion obama is a tyrant like hitler and needs taken out all together.

  • Obama is ruining this country. this video applies to the us as well. it makes perfect sense of how a government should run.

  • aaallliii bud!!!gd job, eyvalla!

  • what songs name?

  • By far the best video, what a concept, yes . And it beautifully shows what the american democracy is , you dont kill people and impose democracy, .

  • @mansh99 This video is about Iran - not the USA.

  • Wonderful job on this! Makes politics seem kinda pointless yet inspiring to keep on fighting!

  • @PaladinConstantin

    That surrealistic world..

  • @PaladinConstantin

    their whining, ahh it's so hard to be a girl, uuh it's so hard with all these desitions, and the song "if i were a boy" aargh that song pissed me off, she generalizes the type of guys she's been with as the rest of the population, just because she chooses the wrong types, fucking ignorant idiot, sry got carried away there :P But the last lines in you comment, that true, i really hate to think that the younger generations will belive these celeb, or "reality" tv.

  • @PaladinConstantin

    Havn't seen that, though i enjoy the quote "life is just a ride..".

    I don't really trust much of the gossip post on sites, but i've been studying psyology so i think much of what's been said about Madonna could be true, but I don't really see like anything else that a egocentric bitch who needs validation from people other than herself. But I wouldn't call it a Madonna society though i understand your thought, i rarely listen to the radio because i'm tired of listening to --

  • @PaladinConstantin

    Yeah i know the translation, and loosly translate to the power of the people, it's to avoid a country ruled by one person [monarchy] or in somekind of dictatorial manner. but i agree with you about some countries, but they're not in the western culture so they don't really have a chance, though they live in a "democratic" society, their government is still controlling them by fucking up the votes.. but there you're right. The Madonna comment was kinda random, heard she's a bi

  • what is the name of the song pls i need that song

  • well made.

  • YouTube::  wet blind man

  • You people are idiots. This video is not about democracy. It's about chalk lines, squiggly green lines, blue men in wells and jazz flutes. Gheez.

  • this is beautiful and sad...

  • well, that's great but what is democracy ? the west which actually is peacefully and silently finishing off the country and the last of the people who invented it ? uh, yeah, it wasn't the greeks, unless you think democritus was a greek and greece was ever a democracy. in fact the greeks are long gone.

    s1 should tell the iranians if it wasn't for their current regime they were going to end exactly where the american installed shah was leading them to - dying by extreme poverty n partition

  • What is he talking about?

  • Excellent. Much luv

  • Perhaps obama will see this and see how he is sending democracy to hell

    But he will be glad if he does

  • The founding fathers of the United States absolutely feared Democracy they even called in Mobocracy because the mass is to be feared. Thumbs up for Democratic Republics.

  • whats the name of the song?

  • I can't believe the comments I'm reading. THIS VIDEO IS ABOUT THE GREEN MOVEMENT IN IRAN! THAT'S WHAT THIS VIDEO ADDRESSES! Didn't you people see the green headband? As an American, I am ashamed of my fellow countrymen that have commented on this video and I am disgusted by the fact that they, in their own minds, have somehow managed to take a powerful message such as this as twist it in order to affirm their petty self conceived notions of American government. PROPS TO CREATOR OF THIS VIDEO!

  • @simmss you know americans, its always about us. thats what i thought it was till i saw the green headband. i was like wtf obama isnt that bad lol.

    anyways thats pretty real you earned your highest comment, but you know youtube commentors, you can say any dumbass thing that comes to mind as long as no one can see whos doing it. they get gorilla balls then.

  • Sigh... You people are idiots. This video addresses democracy as a whole. Not the democratic party. Not just the united states. But any government that is calling themselves a democracy.

    And the narrator is actually still hoping for a true democracy in the end because he is obviously experiencing some type of restrictive authoritative type of government, or one that pretends to be a democracy on the outside... 1:37 of the video tells us this..

    Cmon people read deeper into stuff. I bet you gu

  • This guy has it. Our leaders are theives and liars in the US

  • stirring: a painful reminder that it isn't about democrat vs. republican: it's about people and their desire for leadership that strives to serve the people unselfishly, how the people want to be served. anything less is not democracy, it is tyranny.

  • Tgfsd

  • Good animation, music fits great to the emotions that rise and a very powerful message! great work :)

  • Dfg

  • Tyu

  • Democracy doesn't work for every country. Not everybody wants the vote, not everybody can be bothered.

  • this is beautiful...

  • Saw a comment stating true democracy died a long time ago..true democracy hasn't really existed. Socrates predicted that the common man can't think on the macro level, and for the most part that is true even today. We are so close though, I hope to experience it in my lifetime

  • Aww I thought it was gonna be auto tune the news..

  • I like sex

  • Nowadays democracy doesnt exist, even if you say that the political system in your country is democratic, take a good look and tell me that your country has not the caracteristics in this video... thats not democracy!

    True democracy is dead, dead as a corpse can be... only a miracle can let us out of this corruption hole in where we are stuck.

    So sad... so true...

  • What's this video about??!

  • LOL @ all the conservative morons who don't get what this is about.

  • @postsimianproduct You realize this movie was addressed to democrats, which are the ruling party, and haven't done shit about improving our democracy nor stopping our foreign wars and committing genocide on innocent civilians.

  • Scratch a Liberal

    And Poof !!

    What's Left?

  • OBAMA has changed the world!! You should be grateful for all he's done for you!

  • @ibimw o_0

  • @ibimw Yeah he stopped the war in Iraq...and moved it to AFGHANISTAN! Hurray! Hurray for INCREASING the department of defenses budget even MORE then Bush! Hurray for continuing to provide Billions in aid and military funding to Israel who are invading and stealing lands from the Palestinians YET AGAIN. Yep those damn Muslims should be eternally grateful to us, I mean look at Iraq, only a MILLION civilians killed but we gave them democracy woo hoo! Now it's Afghanistans turn! Next Iran!

  • How can anybody think that this video is against democracy..

    1:37 "Democracy is... what my brothers and sisters requested for and you shed their blood because of it... But still.. we haven't given up on our dream"

    It clearly made by a person whom been experienced a goverment or society that have taken away the individual rights to make a difference..

    beautiful animations and that voice is perfect for the monolougue!

    Well done..

  • Dude...Good video.

  • Hey I'm sorry but a democrocy is a good systemosr demogratic contries that embrace democracy floresh

  • the 48 ppl who disliked this.... tought it would be about porn

  • Every liberal deserves a bullet to the face. Hey what can i say? Im correct. Yes im correct hahahaha

  • I'm not the typical extremesist for the right or left. It's not liberals or conservatives, it's the corruption that needs to be taken care of permanently.

  • Republicans need to all die and leave us smart democrats in charge to fix everything. Republicans are what is wrong with EVERYTHING!!!

  • @Chadferguson29 Except, you know, when it was the Democrat party's fault... a list just as long as the Repubs.

  • Algo infame, pero en castellano sería:

    Querido Presidente democrático, espero que algún día lea esto tal vez le ocurra un milagro y su actitud democrática cambie. La democracia no es proyectar los votos de una nación bajo el filtro de tu propia opinión.

  • La democracia no es tomar los bienes de todos, para la supervivencia de uno. La democracia no es ahogar las voces de manera que ninguna palabra dura pueda agredir tus oídos. La democracia no es gobernar en un régimen totalitario bajo el nombre de República. La democracia no es que una minoría encadene a la mayoría.

    La democracia no es apoderarse de los temas sagrados y hacerlos propios, culpando de hereje a cualquiera que diga algo en tu contra. 

  • La democracia no es ser un amable padre de crianza con la gente de otros países y una madrastra cruel con tu propia nación. La democracia no es jugar con las palabras e invertir la verdad mientras haces discursos sobre la libertad de expresión. La democracia no es que cualquier cosa que digamos sea antidemocrática y cualquier cosa que tú digas, sea democrática. La democracia es lo que mis hermanos y hermanas pidieron y por lo que derramaron su sangre.

  • Great video

  • can we have an english version of this?

  • @kelefeh - Like with Black Panthers with clubs outside voting precincts, and Dead People voting, and hanging chads? That kinda stuff?

  • this isnt hard ppl. there will always be a government that ppl dont like. its never going to be perfect. argue all day if you want. but its in our biology. Animals always have a pack leader thats a bigger bitch with dumb rules no one likes. And it goes up the social scale. all the way up to countries. Yes fighting for a cause has unlocked new governing methods. But its a big vicious circle thatll always start over. so save yourself time, and dont fight for a cause...on youtube.

  • America is not a democracy we're a Constitutional Republic. We use democracy to elect our leaders, then our leaders use democracy to make legislation and policy but that legislation and policy CANNOT violate the Constitution. In pure democracy 51% of the population can vote to rape and murder you.

  • @Kharmatos13 - The idea that we're a democracy has been slowly pushed on us by the leftist media and hollywood so the un-informed will naturally gravitate towards the DEMOCRAT Party. Republican doesn't invoke any image of anything American to the young or uninformed. It's not by accident. Just like seperation of church and state has been re-defined to mean no GOD in government. It never meant that. It meant to say gov't can't impose a religion on you, or become incorporated into Religion.

  • @TubeScrewed amen to that and totally agree.

  • i'm impressed well done most people don't care about the verry important issue your talking about in this video

  • Hey fuck off albel29! shitmonkey Porksnorkeller! Move to iran and be happy that you are not in the U.S.A.

  • @j2thakhomeboy i'm an american born and raised and of american decent stop complaining about how people use their right to free speech your the one that doesn't sound american and that is what the video is getting at use your brain numbskull

  • even though iran is going to stone a women to death but hey there is worst in other nations and this case of a stoning is only on the news because Iran is an "opponent" of the US. Iran has embraced Democracy but they can still do better as with every nation that is democratic. Mexico, Colombia, US, Russia, UK, Thailand etc. can all improve.

  • Democrats this and republicans that, (whatever) what we need to stop doing is asking the politicians to change their ways...because they won't. You don't ask for what is righfully yours you take it. Intsead of living on this planet like a home THEY try to run it like a business while we just sit back and watch thinking that change will come through from the goodness of someone elses words (bullshit) but not from the long awaited actions of our own.

  • i like this vid. I dont live in Iran so i have no clue what exactly is going on over there but hearing bias opinion in the US it's that Iran suffered from electoral fraud. All i know is that the litle character with a green head band are those who oppose ahmadinejad (not sure if i spelled that right). in my opinion i believe Iran is pretty much still one of the most prosporous Mid East nations since they are liberal for that region compared to Saudi Arabia (no offence intended) with women rights

  • WOW this was an amazing video! Thumbs up! that really made me sad, and touched home even though i am american i see alot of similarities. great video!

  • this video is awsome no more need be said keep speaking the truth

  • This speaks to me on a visceral level that transcends religion, race and nationality.

    It would be a shame if the message got lost in a sea of political tribalism.

  • thumbs up if rwj sucks a huuuuuge cock!

  • So what is shooting an RPG into a

    voting booth? While we debate

    forms of government and public controll.

    

  • Oh snap! Lyn4312! you just got SERVED!!

  • @lynn4312 - yeah, like we need the opinion of yet another maple sucking pole dancer who couldn't turn enough tricks north of the border - aye

  • @GigaloCool

    it is understood by the smart community that people who are weak resource to violence and insults to discourage others and feel better about themselves.

  • @GigaloCool

    at least he/she is not a corporate pole sucker

  • @Arch777Angel - I think you need to just set back and get a mouth full of my junk ass-clown.

  • Wow! Very powerful message and beautiful too. Thank you. I am Canadian now living in the US and I did not think it was about the US's current president who I support but I do agree that the word Democracy means nothing if it is not backed by true democratic principals. Something we have to be mindful of even when Democrats are in power. Does true democracy really exist? I wonder. Seems to me the corporations are taking over. Don't let that happen people.

  • this guy obviously doesnt appreciate his unemployment benefits...

  • @andrehawk1 Sarcasm I hope...

  • The funny thing about you tube is that people comment on comments that were made to others that may have posted earlier on another page. Then these weird arguments come about with no direction as to who you're really even talking to. Race wars start uprooting out of peoples hearts. Bashing. Peoples right to their opinions caught in a crossfire of defender opinions. Fear sets in and the Devil laughs at all of the separation. The video is anti-Lies on anyone's behalf. Be more understanding.PLEASE?

  • I think that the USA likes to shove political viewpoints down any country's throat, similar to how the USSR assimilated Russia's borders and the Eastern Bloc, and telling them to only abide by Democracy, and if not, the USA will threaten them by invasion. So the USA masks their actions by wanting to make the world peaceful, when in reality true Democracies just grow from old systems, often growing into something powerful and competent, instead of being just planted there and eventually dying.

  • I APRROVE OF THIS VIDEO!!!

  • damn straight i'll be all in in that burka making that sound with my tongue - lalalalalalalalala

  • waste

  • In order to get any semblance of Democracy in Iran, you must first rid your country of Muslim rule. Good luck with that.

  • show it to (hopefully yet) Belorussian president - Mr. Lukashenko....

  • hell yeah bi-cunnilingual persian chicks man, i'll be poppin that sh^t

  • Well, the US is not democratic anymore, since at least 1950.

    And I loved the guy calling for attention on the americans for being too self centered.

    They are. Dangerously so, no wonder they lose so many wars.

  • /emo

  • alot of the people here that are comparing this video to contemporary america dont realize how good we have it here. theyre just ignorant and angry.

  • trim that persian rug

  • A true nation of freedom is a Democratic-Republic, as envisioned by Thomas Jefferson.

  • Iranians are pussies - hot chicks though, i'll get all up in that sh^t

  • @GigaloCool lmfao!

  • @GigaloCool

    Don't be racist.

  • A true republic is NOT a regime. It would do you wise, sir, to study Thomas Jefferson.

  • Wow! Sounds a lot like New America to me!

  • I find this video both powerful and beautiful. I love the music. I hope Iran's "leadership" does not imprison this video's creator(s).

  • This is beautifully produced. I thought it was about the Democrat party of the US at 1st. I empathize with your situation there, and followed the protests. I don't know how you feel about our suppossed democracy here, but I can tell you, it has become quite corrupt. If you do win your ability to choose your destiny democratically, beware of the elites which will rise up under the banner of that democracy, and end up doing exactly what you've depicted here. That is what is going on in US.

  • @evan13dam If you pay close attention he speaking out against Iran and there far right wing leadership Ahmadinejad. Yes Yes, Ahmadinejad is a right winger, pro religion, and pro Hitler, he claim the Holocaust never happened.

    Sounds like he is speaking out against republicans to me, by the way, the video the words in the video are done in English, think about who may have spinned this just a little bit.

  • @NoobyRC It's called bi-lingual. Many countries residents speak multiple languages. By doing it this way, it can reach a broader audience.

    Also, what do you call someone who is under a democracy? Democrat. It's not talking about the US democratic party. Are people really that lame? It's talking to those with political power under a so called democracy.

  • Great video, I wish people would quit blaming Obama, and realizes there are other powers at play at are causing the nation to fall in to a political stalemate. All the problems we have now are residual affect left form the legacy of the bush administration.

  • @Imetalman2000 and the Clinton administration and the other Bush, and back, and back, and back.

  • @evan13dam If you pay close attention he speaking out against Iran and there far right wing leadership Ahmadinejad. Yes Yes, Ahmadinejad is a right winger, pro religion, and pro Hitler, he claim the Holocaust never happened.

    Sounds like he is speaking out against republicans to me, by the way, the video the word in the video are done in English, think about who may have spinned this just a little bit.

  • @NoobyRC hahahaha

    his talking on iran and USA

    (even you with us or against us )

    what a democracy USA !!!!

  • Yeah umm, i'm thinking that maybe the state department needs to go fu@k itself - umm - by the way - the United States is a Republic, not a democracy, state department. - and OH - think about this, Iran won - yeah a real shining example of 'democracy' except for maybe their last election or any of the monarchs or theocrats that have ran that sh^t hole since the beginning of time.

  • I wish people had the balls to rule themselves instead of being ruled by other men. It's like you get to pick your poison, and democracy is the least painful of the poison. If all men were in touch with God and spirituality, all men could be rulers and we wouldn't need a system to keep it fair.

  • @FriendNotFoeBand

    You don't have to be in touch with a god or spirituality to rule yourself wisely.  What a shallow perspective.

  • @wojovox trust me, ANY kind of spirituality is better than none. We are not the absolute force in this universe. To think that we are is a shallow perspective. I don't know what God is, but man is not God.

  • @wojovox nope? Nope what?

  • @FriendNotFoeBand Do we need spirituality to know that we are not the "only force in the universe"? Aliens, for instance - do they require a belief in order to sustained? Also, can you say for certain, with firm absolute conviction, that there is another force? Your certainty betrays a fragile underlying uncertainty.

  • @kinxectic I am absolutely certain. I have felt it. I have spent months at a time in the wilderness and have felt what Generations over thousands of years have tried to explain. You can feel it too if you concentrate hard enough. Most any artist can tell you that he has felt what Man calls God. All you have to do is focus. Energy is everywhere.

  • That was beautiful and insightful...

    I know this is not about the Democratic Party, per se, but many American's who will see it may think so. That being the case, I wonder if a Republican wins in the US next time if you could do one discussing the concepts of a Republic...

  • Comment removed

  • @DuZhod

    it is a democracy. thats what the film is talking about. not far left or far right. (because frankly they are both the same, argue if you'd like)

    In a democratic republic, the people's voice is what counts, only it plainly doesnt. The people of America are becoming increasingly angered by their own government.

    If you think voting in a donkey or an elephant is going to change which direction the nation is headed, then you are gravely mistaken.

  • @theichorvile

    Yes, I got that. I was actually thinking that others might not, and so the rather brilliant film maker might be able to reach an audience that otherwise might ignore the rather poignient message.

    As an aside, Democracies are not the only form of Republic.

  • Comment removed

  • @AbeGroter I believe that's supposed to be "hear, hear".

  • An unfortunate name for this video... I thought it was going to be right-wing propaganda. I wonder how many Americans pass by this video because of that... especially now with an election ramping up.

    (Democrats being the party on the left in the US, and Republicans being the party on the right...)

  • @kwiggy69 Exactly, but if you play close attention, the words in it that re in English all say Democrat, and the words (in the animation not the captioning) are done in English, if this is a anti iran video why are the letters and words written in English?

    Seems to me there has been some right wing editing going on here. By the way Ahmadinejad is very right wing. Its a wounder why the Republicans say they dont like him, when oh thats right they put him in power to begin with! See Syriana.

  • you, sir, are an artist - very moving

  • very very awesome!.......so simple, yet so POWERFUL.....

    thank you !!

    you did a great job on this !!

  • Democracy = over half of the population forced to live by the rules of the other half

  • @leirgauk you certainly have a point there, to bad people dont know how to comprimise!

  • @NoobyRC too bad any form of compromising would mean a lot of hard work and the whole world cares about nothing but getting home from work, so they can jack off or something. democracy is such a primitive solution. i mean letting the people vote on very important matters that they probably have no clue of or even care about? this isnt the french revolution anymore, time for some change! still tho; hard work.

  • @NoobyRC the best i can think of is sorting people into specific groups (by their choice, of course) in which different laws, taxes etc are applied. to make this work we would have to eliminate cash and use electronic money only. but it WOULD work. now everybody lives life their own way. those who wanna aid the less fortunate of the society and gain some safety through welfare etc. can join some socialist group. if they wanna smoke pot aswell, they are free to *choose* such liberties. nice eh?

  • Wow! Looks like someone finally sees what is happening in America in the last 18 months...wha..oh...it's about the middle east?...oh...sorry.

  • Democracy is nation where every citizen 18 or over has a computer online and is able to vote for or against laws that are chosen by the peolple with no leader or representative, no capitols, no states, just one nation of people making their own laws. The problem with that system is the majority would always oppress the minority on any issue.

  • Hello self-centered American idiots,

    I am regretful to say I was born in your country. For your information, this video has nothing to do with the democratic party in United States politics. It is about allowing the citizens of Iran to vote fairly on issues in their country. So before you go spouting some BS about how the creator can leave our country, or how democrats have ruined the USA, know that the SYSTEM of DEMOCRACY is the right to VOTE. And even republicans have it here.

  • @albel29 we're regretful you were born here too, assmonkey.

  • @albel29

    Take your own hate speech and check yourself.

    The director/writer of this video obviously has only seen the twisted 'democracy' that has sprung up in your 3rd world country.

    Get over yourself and go actually do something about your plight instead of insulting people.

  • @sirskunksalot In some ways we as US citizens are more oppressed than most other countries. The difference is that we place the chains of constraint around us by allow "elected leaders" go against the will of the people. Our country is broke, they still spend. We want our troops home, they send more. Maybe we could learn a thing or two about a revolution from them.

  • @LivingAboveCloud9

    "In some ways we as US citizens are more oppressed than most other countries." What are those "some ways," exactly? Please stop being so dramatic.

  • @LivingAboveCloud9

    You have the freedome to claim you're 'oppressed'

    nuff said.

  • @sirskunksalot LOL thats your definition of freedom...to be able to bitch? Thomas Jefferson would be so proud!

  • @albel29 We understand this, but what you do not know is that there is no democracy here, only word play, mass illusion, and puppets. The puppet masters have become so powerful that they keep themselves hidden with their money, so that we who try to enlighten others to the truth will sound like a bunch of idiots. There is no offense to you from me. I do sympathize with your country's plight but do not look to America as an example, our Gov. Is a massive Fail Blog, planned failures of course

  • @albel29 The green headbands make it very obvious that this is for the Iranian people. Rise up and fight back. The USA should be doing the same but most Americans are too busy watching tv and getting fat.

    Good luck, God Bless.
