Cult Of Personality

Neon lights, a Nobel Prize

Then a mirror speaks, the reflection lies
You don't have to follow me
Only you can set you free
I sell the things you need to be
I'm the smiling face on your T.V.
I'm the cult of personality
I exploit you still you love me

I tell you one and one makes three
I'm the cult of personality...

Analysis By Wheems:

We see a man in a strange hooded garb entombing another man in a red cap. The red capped man is alive, but very confused. The man building a wall is acting on strange and perverse impulses that defy logic and are evil incarnate.
The golden-orange bob of hair is a caricature of sublime sadism.

From Deegan:
Jesus, Wheems! "Caricature of sublime sadism", really? Here is the thing straight up; the guy in the hat cheers on and readily accepts his own demise - as long as he feels like he is hurting "the other" and being pretend protected by the slimy immoral wall building guy, do you get it? Of course you do, but the hat guy never will, that's why he is standing there looking stupid.

Comments: There are people like me that don't get the reference.
- El Jefe
Dear El, See A Cask Of Amontillado by Edgar Allen Poe. A summary of the work will suffice. It's a story about an asshole who gets angry enough to kill his friend over an insult. Kind of like leaders of countries in the 3rd, 4th and 21st centuries.
