As I watch this most excellent video on my cell phone. 

Except that the subway bully @ 0:33 to 0:40 is the politically correct and therefore unreal version. We all know what that guy would really look like.

Yup. Note the Confederate flag on his chest. Totally unrealistic. 

Are you LOST IN THE WORLD?

While I (as with others) disagree with the use of a Confederate flag to "mark" the bully in the subway scene, the short film actually is otherwise a pretty good distillation of the modern world: superficial, self-centered, technology obsessed, hedonistic, and above all disconnected from reality. Like day-to-day events, emotions are either out of control, resulting in chaos, or weirdly absent, resulting in numbed machine-like entities devoid of true charity. There are no true relationships between the people in the world portrayed, even between parents and children. See the tiny scene at 1:43 where two new parents are so obsessed with a selfie of themselves that their new baby is just crawling away alone and bewildered from the hospital crib... 

The stark 20's/30's-styled black and white animation style really works well for this. And that final scene with cell phone users all finally walking unknowingly into an abyss is almost a symbolic damnation...
