In the first video:
"This is an experiment. You can either interact with this video or you can leave....Ohhhhh. You're a curious one. Careful with that. I wouldn't want you to be led astray. Speaking of being lead. In the next video that come up, I want you to comment "Ciusism". With no explanation. Let's see how far this travels."
The video after that(second video?):
"You've done well. Your next task if you choose to accept it. Is quite simple. The next time you come upon a comment that says "Ciusism". Respond with "Is The Way"."
The pseudo-profound idea that every social ill is a symptom of some deep moral sickness and can never be mitigated by simplistic treatments which fail to cure the gangrene at the core.
