i'm always amazed how few people really get the video. The exact same stuff happens and worse to people all over the world constantly.

Based on his other videos it seemed like Romain Gavras was just about making people look badass with lots of violence and ball-battling, even if there was no point to any of it.
It's refreshing that he's finally using those techniques to convey a theme of some sort.

Lame.

that's not even politics btw, it's faking to b political.
The goal is clearly just to chock and get views on youtube.

it's totally political...
... the video mocks reality w/a known 'group of people' easy to pick on...
.. jeez... you're not gonna make me spew the politics revealed through that silly video are you?

It's not about any political message in particular except freedom. Anyone who watches this video and thinks it's an attack on gingers is missing the point, it's only gingers because they're the most recent group to be scrutinized as a race.
By not making it about any actual conflict that exists the video becomes more about freedom than any one message
