One of the best things in this scene is how they show White Rose's reactions. She had really hoped to target Elliot's weak points and break him down to complete her objective, but she can't help but get broken down instead. It's actually quite interesting how these two both constructed alternate identities for themselves due to tragedy and trauma.
I feel Elliot and Whiterose are supposed to be opposites of each other. They are both fucked up people, having experienced deep emotional trauma in the past. But where Whiterose used her pain as an excuse to destroy and take from others, Elliot uses his to hope and fight for those who cant.
Amen. Unfortunately, the fact it was on USA hindered its ability to reach a broader audience - on top of the fact that some of the seasons were widely spaced apart. It was a complex show and was very easy to fall behind by a viewer with a short attention span. I loved breaking bad… but truthfully, mr robot is the GREATEST series I’ve ever watched in my life. It hurts that it didn’t receive the acclaim/awards it deserved. And I highly doubt any show will ever top it in my life. I miss the show, Elliot especially, immensely.
Maybe it's better this way. It won't be bogged down by rubes and dummies who might praising the show without understanding why. And to those that do know about Mr. Robot can cherish it even more.
3:33 Is why I absolutely LOVE Mr Robot. Sam Esmail so frequently tells such a depressing story of pain and broken people who do horrible things. But he also frequently does a complete 180, reminding us that we CAN and should still hope, not just *despite* of the pain, but *because* of it. Hope not just for ourselves, but for everyone else.
This was the second best monologue in the show, I gotta give the number one spot to the last episode when he's in his mind staring out the window of the ECorp building talking about what it really means to change the world
I can so relate to it. I’ve been bullied in middle school, all the way to high school. It was awful. They broke me to that point that I don’t know how to proper interact with other students anymore. In grade 10 I finally came into a class which accepted me and liked me, but during the first year it just seemed odd and I couldn’t really make any friends or something because I simply didn’t know how to talk to others. I was completely broken. Confident with myself, but broken. It wasn’t until grade 11 when I finally started to open up and get along with them. I felt loved. I didn’t know it was possible, but thats what I felt. That feeling was worth so much, it was incredible.
I had the same exact experience. Bullied heavily until high school. From elementary to middle school constantly being bullied. And same thing happened, once people actually wanted to get to know me and hang out with me, I started to gain friends. And it took me a while to get used to those experiences. Even today I still wear some of the scars from those traumatic experiences. But it gave me how that there are good people out there that are willing to know who you are, and not follow the status quo that is peer pressure and bullying others that you don't know
My friend, you are literally describing my upbringing. It was hard to adjust my own mindset when it came to those that really cared about me. I believed that it was futile to actually love someone else in spite of the hurt, and yet there are those that have proven me wrong. And let me tell you, I’ve never been more glad to have been proven wrong in my life before.
I kinda come from the same. Was bullied in elementary and it started to slow down in middle school. Wasn't bullied in high school, but rather- isolated. Rarely spoke to anyone for those four years, and even when I found kids who were open and friendly... any small reason or 'excuse' that came up to hate them was enough. Even at 22, its hard to let go of that resent and hate. Even when I personally don't blame my bullies. I've forgiven them, talked to them, and know they had abusive situations going on at the time. And somehow, I still can't fully forgive and let go.
I think what Elliot says here is the thesis statement of the whole show. We can’t build a perfect world yet because the only thing truly holding us back is our own human nature, and if we work to improve ourselves instead, that just might be a better use of our time. “Everyday, we change the world, but to change the world in a way that means anything, that takes more time than most people have. It never happens all at once. It’s slow, it’s methodical, it’s exhausting. We don’t all have the stomach for it.”
@@justincruz5720 Once human nature was just trying not be eaten by a lion at night, once human nature was that some were meant to be slaves and some to be masters, once human nature was to make as much profit as possible at the expense of others. If there is one nature for us it is this: we strive for pleasure and avoid pain, the how is what is constantly changing because we transform the world with our actions, we build roads, we conquer the night, we create markets, we buy stuff, we fight each other and at the same time, all this transforms us. And just as this process we build ourselves has turned us into a bunch of vile creatures, we can also build it differently, better and once free from the needs of pleasure and the threat of pain, we may find out what human nature truly is
@@Bojoschannel I don’t understand. You said there is no human nature, and then you just gave me three examples of it. Are you saying that we’re all merely just products of our environment or that our environment is the product of us?
@@justincruz5720 Both, we produce an environment and said environment shapes us, giving birth to what can be considered multiple "human natures", which are not universal and timeless, but contingent and specific to a particular time.
One of the most powerful scenes I've ever watched. I tear up every single time. This show is not good or great or amazing, it is BRILLIANT. Pure and raw brilliance. It is honestly the best series I've ever seen. It is the only show that shakes me down to the core of my foundation. 💗😪💗
To think we didn’t even know Darlene was his sister in season one. What a long way this character has come. One of the most underrated shows on television
It gets sadder when you realize the one that loves him the most and stuck to him the most is just in his imagination and he is still inevitably lonley, of course Darlene loves him, but nobody knows him as good as Mr robot yet Mr robot is just him... Is sad
It's even sadder when you realize that he was just another personality created with the purpose of holding elliots rage, which inevitably sets him on a path full of suffering, while the real elliot is living out his routine without a care in the world
I think he is talking more about self-love, than having love in his life. If you can't love youself, you wont feel the love of others, and i think this is Elliots true struggle. But his alternate identities are able to love him, so that's interesting, because then it does become a form of self-love. Not entirely sure where i'm are going with it, but i feel like it could be an interpretation, since it's interesting with his many personalities, and self-love and healing are often connected.
Hey man I’m happy Mr Robot helped you & this speech hit you in the soul, but if you were considering suicide or those urges come again please seek the help needed, or at least call suicide hotline or check in to a hospital for suicide watch. I understand it can feel hopeless, exhausting, & wonder if there is any purposes to all the shit you & everyone goes thru day in & out, but it’s important to know you don’t have to go thru all the feelings by yourself. The helps is there, just have to be open to take it. Take care of yourself man, I may not know you, but I understand your pain. Be safe.
This show touches the very inner fibers of myself. The feeling of hating a society that has crushed everything, that has brought pain and sorrow; the feeling of not having the ways to communicate with others, and being forced to do it even when you don't want to; and still having a great love for the world, because of the people that is there for you and loves you when you hate yourself, you can't understand how they can love you so much, but they do, and it really heals you on time... We humans are such a peculiar species, we can be so cruel and at the same time we can be so generous and loving. Don't give up on the world my friends, for we can really stand and change all the fucked up society is. Hope everyone has a great day, love you all
Unconditional love from the people around you who are truly there for you no matter what you do or what has happened to you can be such a great power for good in your life. Even through all the shit you fuck up and make mistakes but if you love someone else and keep loving someone else even through all the truly terrible shit it gives you strength. It empowers you and it's never weak to put true value on that. Elliot /mastermind embraced that. He finally understood that is what life is. And white rose. Couldn't see it. She just kept running from the truth hoping to destroy and replace. But it's never that simple. Its never that easy. And if you have enough courage to truly let someone in and love them back it forever changes you. This scene for me is the perfect explanation for the driving force.of the show and the seasons long battle between these two. Its truly beautiful. What to me is even better is by the scenes end you can see white rose subtle face changes. She realizes that Elliot is right and maybe in the end white rose was wrong. That she misjudged Elliot. That he is the exact opposite but he's right.
Breaking Bad left me very satisfied. But This left me an emotional mess lmao. Never had a finale hit me so hard. Still hard for me to say which show I prefer tbh
This monologue reminds me of the speech Sam gives to Frodo in Two Towers. That feeling of “yeah, shit DOES suck, but you gotta fight for what good there is out there”
I feel like this still.. to a certain degree. A feeling of hatred towards others because you were hurt multiple times in your life. The lies and deceit that people gave to you . I have a VERY few. That are adamant to stay by my side no matter how much I told them “I’m just a bad sore, I’m just a thorn in your side or I’m not gonna be worth it.” And I just can’t understand why they care so much about me when all I do is just helped others based off of instinct to make sure someone else is doing better then I am doing. That self destructive behavior that some say. Has made people feel like they want to help me get back onto my feet.. In some way.. I still tell them “I still don’t understand.” And they always say “Because you made us feel loved. During a time where we felt un loved by the world and I don’t want to see you lose to this world” I still. Break down. Because to this day… I still don’t know If I’ll ever be “normal” again… I just only Hope I someday. Can accept it
For almost everyone in life this is our mothers or fathers. For me, for a long time, I always thought it was the love of my life for over 3 years back in 2016, until she decided one day that she shouldn't have to stand for my shit anymore and she left, forever. Cut me off completely and left me in hopeless abandon. And guess what? My fault almost completely. Don't let this advice make you in turn take those who are closest to you for granted. People do and will walk out and never come back. I still love her after all these years, even though I shouldn't anymore. I miss her every day, and we haven't spoken a single word in over a year and change. So at the end of the day, even though she annoys me and we don't get along, I have my mom. Just her, and I love her and am thankful for that. Even though it doesn't emotionally impact me, I know one day it will.
No it is not! We are only human. If you can relate to this, I can relate to you. There are an exponential amount of us that have felt the same. To me that is comforting, not sad.
The real sad part is that we can be way more than just humans. And yet we indulge in our imperfections like it's something glorious. We can be so much better than this.
Mr. Robot is my all-time favourite show. Along with the video game Life is Strange, they both inspired me to write my book series It’s similar to Marvel Cinematic Universe and superhero shared universes , but it’s much more than that. It’s all about philosophy, characters, growth, the important lessons we need to learn before we enter the real world. It’s 18+ and can sometimes trigger a lot of people. But it can be relatable to anyone who feels trapped in this world, but it can inspire everyone to not give up and fuck the world.
how are you avoiding copyright claim? I tried uploading a less than 2min clip today and it got taken down in US & Canada. But here you have 4m15s and it's up!
That's for uploading it, but your copyright notice at the end is all bullshit, you can't call fair use on not for profit. If you wanna learn more watch the video "RU-vid copyright system isn't broken. The world's is." By Tom Scott
AMAZING monologue-- had me in chills. Too bad it was ruined (spoilers): in the next 2 episodes with "this was all just an fragment of his personality". For me, it kind of undid character growth Elliot had made in this scene since the original "society monologue" from Season 1.
He has DID, they all are the same, they just have different aspects of themselves exemplified, Mr Robot being his more violent ambitious side, the Mastermind's journey is what we were following, not Elliot. And that doesn't rob anything of the story.
I don't think it takes away. The Mastermind has grown as a person, but he is still ultimately Elliot's rage against the world. For Elliot to let go of it, he has to let go as well.
@@TheAdorkableRJ I can't stand the vast majority of movies or TV shows. The writing is horrible. The acting is horrible. There is nothing realistic about them. But that's just me. If you like this that's great.
