Honestly I agree with you here. It’s a great and extremely shocking piece of art that forces you into the dark world of a combat veteran while making fun of how we glamorize war. However, the comedic tone with a dark subject matter doesn’t make it a good PSA. The redeeming quality is that it at least went viral and brought a lot more attention to the charity and veterans issues so it’s definitely a mixed bag. Side note, thank you for chiming in! It’s interesting to hear from someone who worked in the field professionally.
It kinda feels like a Wonder Showzen sketch or something especially with the implication that the government doesn’t give a shit (which is true)
These would have been good PSAs if there was some bill being propose, the call to action would be to voice your support to…uhhh forgive my American ignorance, I can’t remember what British elected officials are called. Those people!
