A Bug's Life - ''Then they ALL might stand up to us'' 

I wish we had more villains like him, the ones that don't always jinx themselves.

+Andrés Pétur Axelsson (Adventure Man) I completely agree.

I think you guys are out of your mind.

diromiz : thats why Hopper scared the shit out of me when I was a kid.That and his design.Brrrr.*shivers*

yet he still failed...

it was always relevant and will always be i guess

I literally just told some one yo I watched this movie as a kid and now I feel like we need to take flicks advice and stand up

They said it was all a conspiracy

how?

Yup

Yep the elite, the worlds richest and the politicians are the grasshoppers taking away the rights of the ant citizens

More like Government Tyranny. Seems as though Class Warfare is a convenient excuse to divide and conquer the population.

+Ronald Mcfuckin Donald nah he ended them. I remember cause i was freaked out when i saw that as a 5 year old

Donald's followers are a small minority. That's why they're always on the defensive - they're in a very weak position and they know it! Their days are already numbered. History shows - scum like them never survive for long.

Actually, this has always been relevant. For almost every fucking era.

Let’s Go Brandon lmao 🤣

That message is so often shared within animated films, kid's entertainment and social services and relief programs today that it's easy to overlook it as a positive, "look inside yourself" message. If a villain like Hopper says the exact same thing, that gives another layer of how legitimate its power is.

P R O P A G A N D A O F T H E D E E D

throw eggs at the rich

Wake up

@@g.Raider Its actually because Hollywood is run by marxists and the "people's uprising" is a staple of marxist propaganda..at least a bug's life was a little more honest since the ants had their own queen and ruling class that they were preserving, as well as a money-hungry capitalist importing a bunch of foreign bugs in order to commit genocide against the grasshoppers and displace the old locust order. It is actually far more historically accurate than most leftist propaganda lol.

SDagoth Kevin Spacey

Yeah. Despite his ruthless nature as a greedy bandit leader, the guy-no wait, the BUG is very wise and understanding of his own predicament with the ants he manageably subjugates, being a large enough population to start a full-fledged rebellion against him. And look at how analogical or allegorical Hopper was when he initiated a comparison of an average ant with a bean seed and throwing one at one grasshopper lackey of Hopper's gang, another seed at another hopper, then he rips the canister off, letting a waterfall of seeds cascade onto the ignorant, foolish and boastful bugs, burying them (I don't know if that actually killed them, who knows? It's Hopper after all, that ruthless, remorseless, evil son of a bitch). Hopper makes a representation with the food they foraged from the ants of one out of many ants that, with one spark of flame in their hearts, will have the potential to rise up and retaliate against Hopper and his faction ✊🏾

This is a lesson that must be taught to our government.

Donald Trump?

SDagoth you knew what would happen if class-consciousness ever emerged

absolutely

bluex217 Agreed.

No question about it.

From the dead look as the kernels are falling to the slack jawed look on the that one grasshoppers face to the dialogue... utter perfection.

Hell yea

Well flick led him to the bird. He gave into his rage over losing because of flick at that point and it was his downfall. The "bird" is ultimately a god like figure to a bug (even hopper fears birds, and even bad men fear God's wrath) and he had to answer for his sins in the end by being punished by god.

@@BunnaySango good analogy. Crazy how a cartoon that came out when I was 5 is resonating with me now at 26

hopper is the most cunning Disney villain!!! Hopper rulze

maclicious2008 I agree. Very underrated. Along with Syndrome and Frollo.

I don't think he's underrated, and neither are Syndrome and Judge Claude Frollo. They're just not very well-known compared to other Disney villains.

Jorge Anguiano Actually, Syndrome is OVERRATED.

maclicious2008 And Disney Hercules hades very funny fast talker and was kinda like Hopper

And the capitalists who own them

@@IAmNumber4000 Sad. You must be a Socialist who doesn’t see that it’s the Communists who own these governments. But Socialism is too close to Communism for you to see that.

@@michaelskyland4267 That's a narrative fed to you by outrage media. Communists make up a tiny portion of the voting base and if you haven't noticed, their ideas aren't very profitable. Money runs this country and this world. But to distract you from that fact, those with money fund an endless stream of propaganda to scapegoat anyone and everyone but themselves. Also the Bug's Life scene is an obvious reference to class conflict.

@@IAmNumber4000 Can we just admit that both systems suck and are corrupt, because they are

@Ayjop Capitalists on lobby Government because it's effective, it's only effective because Government heavily involves itself in such things, much like Socialism would like them to Get Government out of Market matters and see just how quickly Corporations stop bribing politicians

At the same time.

And then he casually walks on the buried bodies

Probably got away with it by making it ambiguous whether they survived or not. It's pretty clear, by the context, that they didn't survive but it's like Jet on Avatar The Last Airbender. Couldn't outright say he died, but they made it really obvious.

There was a deleted scene that showed one of their bodies (just the hand was shown) but that was removed as it would have being too graphic for kids at the time

A real grasshopper could probably survive that, but it would have a hard time getting out again.

+EmperorShaoKahn123 Lets get em..

+Daveyboy LETS RIDE!

He killed those guys just to make a point!

Not exactly he was talking about breaking them some more genius.

That is quite an understatement!

too bad us people cant go and defeat the evil people in office like the ants did

@yeet bender i could do this to overthrow goverment and evil presidents but they use the fbi, cia and police to demfend them and make us out numbered

​@awesomeninja9178 Oh we can. We have since humans started forming tribes.

Straight facts

We are many, they are few. To fear death is a choice and they can't hang us all.

is this a reference to game stop's stocks?

Pixar* not disney

TheColonelAngel yeah but he is still Disney & Pixar, I know he is not Disney Animation Studios but I still consider them Disney

Disney owns Pixar now, but they didn't when this movie was made.

He's on a long list of underrated villains.

@@xxladybug94 You're undermining Pixar

Bernacious Sandinista.

U fckn said it

Exactly

I think it’s the rich, as most of them directly profit off their workers

@Brazilian WavEment The analogy is workers rising up, unionising and fighting for fair pay/benefits/etc. The rich very much have a reason to keep their workers in line

It's clear the poster of the video meant it in a political context. The channel is We Are Change, which is an activist group started by Luke Radowski

@@choosetolivefree WeAreChange is an independent journalist outlet, and Luke is a journalist. If you want an activist look at Adam Kokesh. Also I'm not totally sure how this works but this isn't actually really affiliated with Luke himself. Luke's the founder of WeAreChange NYC, which is the main WeAreChange. But there are others like this one for Portugal that are more location-specific. I don't know if these guys need to get permission from Luke to use their name, or if it's more of an open-source kind of thing. I'd guess the latter because of the variation between channels and seemingly loose affiliations.

@@mikeexits Yea, he began as a pure activist, doing his confrontations with the powerful wealthy elites who have real power in the world, like his meeting with Lord Jacob Rothschild. That is activism. At some point he slowly transitioned into doing basically journalism. None the less. I remember his roots and where he came from

I find it sorta depressing that one if my favorite childhood pixar films got hooked deep into politics

Evangelion 3.0: _It Will Mean Victory_

That's my favorate chapter in the book

This had nothing to do with Harry Potter before you barged in.

"Hopper makes Voldemort look like a bitch" - Albus Dumbledore.

DanHan on the contrary: it has more to do than you realized. The power struggle that Hopper embodies is precisely what Dumbledore meant about tyrants fearing the people they subjugate. From what we can surmise in the movie A Bug’s Life, no ants prior to Flik ever had the brass to stand up to Hopper and his swarm. They all demurely gave in without much fuss. But then, when Hopper went too far in trying to brutalize Flik to make an example of him, the ants all realized that they were greater in number than they initially realized. See? The parallel is clear.

Ehh, Dumbledore is a useless liberal who keeps insisting on second chances to obviously cartoonists evil people.

It's a shame that he turned out to be a sexual predator.

@@VGamingJunkieVT ***What.***

@@concept5631 Kevin Spacey?

@@VGamingJunkieVT ?

Yessssssssss💯💯💯💯💯

Mich currently yup

This has been relevant since the beginning of life.

I’ve thought about this scene so much this year. Especially that we’ve been in lockdown in melb aus with the strictest lockdown in the WORLD- which continues to this day with only average 6 cases a day. We’ve had a very small number of cases compared to everywhere else in the world

@@buknaked Globalist worldwide used this virus to control people and folks let them do it like willing slaves. It's funny how they complain, but don't say shit when it's time to speak up and they actually hate the one's who do speak up and stand up to it.

how about now?

even worse. especially in horrible bosses when he tells jason bateman "i own you, you're my bitch."

House of Cards though...that show was fucking insane. The last season wasnt the same because they dropped Spacey because of the allegations at the time

it only works if other decide to listen and to join

Plus its also show that you should never underestimate your opponent whether they are strong or weak.

MrWildcard531 i disagree, syndrome and lotso is the better.

@@matthewolson9850 I think Syndrome wins after literally committing genocide against superheroes

@@TrentTheHedgie Dont forget his embarassing death because he wore a cape. Like Edna said, NO CAPES!

Syndrome was better but Hopper is underrated.

When they say "BUT THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT!"

He use to be my favorite character in the movie.

His disgruntled expression? Yep, we have those.

GME is a fun ride but in the long run, it will change nothing. A run on a stock not gonna reform anything absolute best case you get some minor extra reg regarding overleveraging not a revolution.

I agree accept the last part. Imho it’s the best pixar film

I know this is an 11 year old comment but I disagree with "pure evil". Pure evil to me is a kind of "evil for evil's sake" kind of thing. Hopper was pragmatic evil. He was a thief and a bully but it was calculated and had a purpose.

which is why he used fear tatics saying he was going to kill them if they didn't comply

@@awesomeninja9178 Fear tactics are being use today to make citizens obey the government

truer words have never been spoken

Exactly my thoughts and the reason I'm re-watching this

YES!!

It will be relevant so long as there is capitalism.

Come here just to find a comment like yours

I can here because the whole thing with game stop stock reminded me of this scene.

I thought of this scene because of covid and the game stop thing too

You mean Pixar

Its just crazy how a kids film about bugs can literally have big meanings specially now

trixie fariy it really makes you have a whole new level of appreciation for these movies the older you grow and more of the world you get to know.

Couldn’t say it any better.

Everyone needs to re-post this so it becomes the most popular comment on this video...(except then the video will probably get taken down after being just fine for 6 years... LOL...ants are so forgetful;)

Yeah man that is not the same thing. That is not what this scene is talking about at al

The elites are getting to comfortable showing there true colors in due time something is gonna give

I mean hey I'm just here cause I like the scene. Nothing more to it than that for me. Edit: Although considering what most of the comments are about, I think I should mention that I consider myself pretty liberal. Just wanted to clear that up in case there was any confusion.

Yup. We are the ants

@Disposable Email Agree, there is a simpler term. Have's vs Have not's

That's why I came back here.

you mean, relevant NOW more than ever

+Gevito236 And the sheep still don't get it.

+Gevito236 I actually think this might have a more literal meaning. Pixar was a company that was bought out by Disney. They kept creation rights though so they could still produce stuff like this. Of course it was an example of petty bourgeois being bought out by bourgeois so it still has significance.

You're so close but not quite there. There's a reason the concept of "global elite" is so popular especially among the right. It's a nebulous foe of specific people connected in tenuous ways. This rhetoric exists to distract people from the more fundamental, systemic root cause that is wage labor and class society. The ruling class of your own country, public and private sector, are just as bad in a vacuum as they are on a global scale. And when I say ruling class, I don't just mean individual CEOs or politicians, I mean the systemic framework that allows people to enter those roles to begin with. The factory worker in China has more in common with you than either of you have with your boss.

Kevin Spacey didn't think things through like his character Hopper!

@@Exarian I hope you have figured out that the "GLOBAL ELITE" actually own the Left. The Right are the Patriots of every country fighting these people. They tell us exactly what they are doing in the movies and media they produce. Many are Lucifierian Satanist.
