00:00Springtime is here.

00:08And this marvelous, mysterious flower has just been discovered.

00:14Its uniqueness is beyond ocean plants.

00:17Hey, this isn't the scientist who can control the brains of the masses.

00:21Hey, who let this radical left tree hugging hippie in here?

00:25So I would like to ask you rich and powerful gentlemen,

00:28to help fund my nonprofit scientific research and study

00:32for the benefit of the planet and humanity.

00:35Believe me, if it's plants that you're trying to sell

00:38that are used by the rich and powerful,

00:41we got it already thanks to our illegal sources.

00:44I hate the environment.

00:46That's why I use weed killer for my lawn so I don't have one.

00:49Well, global warming is destroying the planet caused by us without a care in the world.

00:54So, what can we profit off of next?

00:57We could create a think tank that sells hate and fear filled propaganda

01:01using flowers as a scapegoat.

01:03You seriously believe that people are that stupid to believe in something like that?

01:08Far-right extremist groups are already doing it.

01:11We just feed them a false sense of security.

01:13The president declares civil war on pretty flowers for causing feelings.

01:19All thanks to the radical laugh.

01:22The important rich and powerful stated that the only solution to the problem is to destroy the world.

01:28But there's nothing to worry about.

01:30Because here's a coupon for ice cream.

01:32DESTROY THAT PLANT!

01:34Ignorant fools.

01:35The rich and powerful are ruining your lives.

01:38Hate and fear doesn't solve anything.

01:41Instead of hurting others and blaming them for your insecurities, why not understand the consequences of your actions?

01:48Why don't you change your life for the better and ask for help with your deeper issues and negative emotions all bottled up inside you?

01:56Why not direct your energy towards positive outlets instead?

02:01Challenge your impulses.

02:02Look, despite all our differences, we are all one.

02:06We all want to live a happy, healthy, free, safe, and prosperous life.

02:11Forget about authority, hierarchy, and competition.

02:14Let's live on the planet together in peace and harmony.

02:19It's calling our masculinity toxic!

02:22It's challenging our closed-minded, rigid belief system!

02:26Get in before it makes us all cute and guddly!

02:29If the world isn't going to change for the better, then I'm just gonna focus on having a happy life regardless.

02:36Jabbin' out of the room with my open bar!

02:40Taking out the eggs and all!

02:42Ooh, I don't remember!
