Top Comments of this video!! :3
Some of Rust's dialogue is incredibly similar to The Last Messiah by the pessimist philosopher Peter Wessel Zapffe. "I think human consciousness is a tragic misstep in human evolution. We became too self aware; nature created an aspect of nature separate from itself. We are creatures that should not exist by natural law." is almost like a condensed version of that essay.

I've felt such affinity for rust that I keep watching the series over and over. We never see characters like him - isolated, depressed, introspective, and wholey at peace with what they are.
Most normal characters would have rust chasing or being chased by women, persuing wealth or riches, fame, anything... but rust just keeps to himself in his plain apartment thinking.

My favorite show and my favorite philosophical YouTuber! â¤ď¸
Thereâs a consistent undercurrent of identity to season one I didnât pick up on until rewatching.
Martyâs flaw (according to his ex wife Maggie) was that he didnât know who he really was or what he wanted. He later tells Rust âI used to play baseball and ride bullsâŚ.you end up becoming something you never intended.â
Rust on the other hand: âafter all this time I know myself. And thereâs a victory in that.â

having watched this video a few times, I gotta say I think changing the thumbnail and title was the right move. The first watch through I definitely was focused on the True Detective part of the video and less on the actual message you were trying to get across about doomerism. either way I think everything you make is great but I figured I'd throw it out there :P
