  I&apos;ve watched hundreds of hours of Resident Evil video essays, and you are the first and only person I&apos;ve heard to address any critical plot, character, event, and ideological details within the franchise. No other content creator has asked questions, or posed thoughts about, literally anything you&apos;ve addressed in this video. I learned of Said this semester, and I&apos;m reading on Foucault, and it&apos;s interesting to see the ways Resident Evil display, describe, and attribute power to corporations and governments. This is brilliant work, and I hope more content creators do critical analysis like this in the future.

  My fraternal twin brother was also eaten in a tragic international mishap, it&apos;s more common than people think 💜🍄

  I&apos;ve always said, even in defense of the films (I know it hurts), REs stories retold sound completely nutso, the underlying fear that &quot;who/whatever we put our trust in will fail us&quot; just works and is brilliant.

  &quot;For the purposes of unpacking Resident Evil, what is Eugenics&quot; is a hilarious sentence out of context

  RE tends to get near misses on the micro level too, I remember getting to the end of VII and Ethan monologued about how the Baker&apos;s were victims in all this and then stopped talking and I&apos;m sitting there going, &quot;Also the little girl who was used in horrific human experimentation, she&apos;s also a victim here&quot;

  Seeing Chris Redfield and Leon Kennedy framed as the protagonists of the Resident Evil series really threw me for a loop. &nbsp;Mostly because when I think Resident Evil, I think Jill Valentine. &nbsp;They sure went a long way to write her out of her spot as series protagonist after the end of RE3.

  Victor Hugo in the 1860s: Creates a policeman antagonist character who views the world as being made up of &quot;sheep&quot; and &quot;wolves&quot; with himself as the &quot;dog born from wolves&quot; standing guard and protecting the &quot;sheep&quot; in order to demonstrate his rigid, simplistic, and erroneous thinking. <br><br>Police today: Completely unironically adopt this exact worldview and philosophy, but with an added obsession with and veneration of violence. <br><br>What could go wrong

  I really appreciate the segment about copoganda; I do acting work and do background work a lot and the irony of my dislike for cops and the justice system entirely I keep getting cast to play an armed to the teeth goon cop or FBI agent for so many different shows. <br><br>It’s even funnier when some of the crew even dislike the show they’re working on and call it propaganda out loud away from the show runners ears. <br><br>Anyway as a leftist who loves Resident Evil and only recently discovered your channel I love your content!

  The origin of Stockholm Syndrome was rather mind blowing. I also particularly enjoyed the critical analysis of the great social philosopher KRS-One.
