“As a society, are millions of us still able to be captivated by the same tired viral tricks?”

Yes. Humanity doesn’t seem to embrace change. Which is why you see so many of the “same tired viral tricks.” After all if this video has taught us anything, it’s that people follow others.

In this day and age people spend more time copying what others create that we have no expertise ourselves to make our work valid because we have created nothing ourselves.

I know I speak badly about my fellow human beings, but I do believe in the famous quote, “They can be a great people, Kal-El, they wish to be. They only lack the light to show the way.”

Also, to address HRO’s quote about constructing our lives to emulate movies…so what? Maybe we are. The question of whether or not life emulates fiction or vice versa exists for a reason. Who cares if we are…stop judging and create something yourself. (Not you Timmy, HRO Carles).
