Metaphor, death, capitalism 

CGP Grey recently released a very awesome video animation that is an adaptation of Nick Bostrom's "Fable of the Dragon-Tyrant" I watched it last night.

I was surprised when I went looking for more information that instead of it being about the destructiveness of capitalism, apparently, the passage is supposed to be about death.

And I can kinda see that, but honestly? I think i prefer it my way. Take a look.
