  Over the summer I made several trips to Los Angeles in filming for this video and I had no idea how it was going to turn out until I put it all together. Making this video was a journey in itself but Im glad to have done it and I hope you guys are as interested in seeing content like this as I am to film it. I read almost every comment even if I don't always respond, I do appreciate the support from you guys You can find links to my social media, my other channel, and my podcast in the description, see you guys soon.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdkvvafeMzk&amp;t=410">6:50</a> the &quot;Treat people with kindness&quot; sign is laughable. LA is filled with self-serving virtue signaling hypocrites.

  The shocking juxtaposition of the homeless camp with $200,000 dollar cars passing by is really the best analogy of LA.

  &quot;it&apos;s like living in an insane asylum and having patients running it&quot; well said.

  Everyone in LA thinks he is better/cooler than the rest. This is how you get a bunch of lonely people always out to prove themselves that they are better, but they just feel sad and empty in the end.

  As a European from Belgium, I was shocked when I visited LA. I have never seen a city more devoid of... humanity? Idk how to describe it but the city feels utterly soulless and incredibly materialistic. Everything is about <b>looks</b> , not about how things actually are. There is absolutely no sense of sincerity, everyone and everything feels fake. The lack of comradery, community or collectivism is stunning. The place is what peak individualism looks like: every man for himself. Just a bunch of individuals trying to survive in a concrete jungle full of apathy, trash and misery. <br><br>Absolutely depressing and sobering experience. <br><br>I had the same feeling in Las Vegas, except way more escapism there. Bunch of people drinking, gambling and ordering escorts in an attempt to convince themselves that they are happy

  Anything discussing &apos;dark reality&apos; and &apos;L.A&apos; can&apos;t be 29 minutes long. It needs to be 240 years.

  Remember, Insanity is also a way to cope with cruel reality. Never judge people based on what you see alone.

  Okay hear me out. Seeing pets with homeless people always made me a little extra sad. Then I realized that to the dog, that human is their whole world. That dog is helping that human get through one of the hardest things a person can go through in life. And that pet would more than likely be happy with their person instead of being without. I’m sure the emotional support Frosty gets from his pet is astounding.

  “LA has no shortage of pride, but it could use some humility” that is such a great quote and description of state of the city

  What that guy from Egypt said in the beginning was profound &quot;people have so much ego in L.A. that they don&apos;t care where the next person&apos;s going&quot;
