Be sure to check out these two video breakdowns of the speech which truly inspired me to edit this: (by Max Derrat) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oK-JddKVlc3JY40.html (by LogosSteve) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bLyPe912ta6qiXk.html

2022: The media accused Kojima himself of assassinating Shinzo Abe. It’s almost terrifying how well this scene aged.

The scary thing isnt that this nails the head these days but rather that this speech was created 2001.

I remember how much people hated MGS2 because the bait and switch with Raiden, but it was decades ahead of its time

Kojima warned us... He warned us in his own games.

"This goes against our community standards"

Its terrifying how "right" the AI are. This game came out when again? Goddamn future sight of Kojima

This game supposedly prophesised an impossible dystopia, and yet here we are, two decades later, reaping the fruits of our ignorance. How do we change it?

"So what's mgs2 about?" "Walking robot Tanks" "Actually, NO!"

The irony of all of us watching this on KZfaq is almost so dense you can cut it

Well done. I was a kid when I first heard this. I'm 29 now.

You somehow made the conversation more chilling as it was

"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." - George Orwell

People who hate MGS2 is still stick on the Raiden switch and not seeing the bigger picture, it has took us 10 to 20 years to truly understand this message and this is truly spotted on. Everything GW is saying describe our society as a whole. As a kid I truly never understand this because i was a kid but then after 10 years later after the game release on HD remaster that I slowly understand it but now another 10 years and i see the picture Kojima was trying to say, MGS3 is a great game but this right here is something of premonition, revelation, we need to give this game more praise than it should, this game has truly stand with the tides of time itself. I feel like that switch was needed to help people to understand the story that much deeper If you still don't want to see the full picture and still upset about Raiden switch to Snake then you are truly lost and shows how small minded you truly are.

It’s honestly horrifying how well the game predicted what the current world is like.

“And you think you’re qualified to decide what’s necessary and what’s not?” “ *Absolutely.* “ That still sends chills down my spine

It is scary how underrated this piece of dialogue is from one of the most succesful franchises of videogames. Kojima is a genius

Kojima warned us about revengeance fans all the way back in the 2000s

I recall when Qanon came onto the scene back in 2017. As soon as the term 'the patriots' started being thrown around, MGS was the first thing I thought of - at first it really took me back & couldn't believe what I was seeing with my own eyes. I'm 34 now & still remember using dial up internet to get cheat codes for my Nintendo 64 games with AOL instant messenger being the only way to talk to friends outside of school etc.. Gen Z is too young to see what the internet has become, while our parents are too old. Take that a step further and x>75% of millennials are too ignorant to see what the internet has become & they are the ones who had the best chance at doing so. But, to say the least, it's fascinating watching this play out. Shout out to those who are watching the insanity of the world being live-streamed, while also keeping their emotions grounded & not being compromised. Thanks for making this video.

Everytime i hear mgs2 In my brain: *LALILULELO*

keep in mind that the script for mgs2 was written in 1999, before the turn of the millennium and the game was released in 2001. before smartphones, tablets, apps, and every other modern day necessity, this game predicted the upcoming future excellently.

Our GW isn't working good. They actually make that false "truth"

"Everyone withdraws into their small gated community, afraid of a larger forum. They stay inside their little ponds, leaking whatever "truth" suits them into the growing cesspool of society at large" Scary. The AI Rose was referring to safe spaces and echo chambers.

Jesus this is actually haunting, good job.

It is always better to explain using images, visual info with audio(or text) is crucial to understanding. l wished games had more examples, but it is complex, it depends on the context of the game but alas, you're pretty good!

i'm kinda speechless lol

This speech was already scary because it's true, but those pics made it even scarier

The shit with the social media apps talking to Raiden at the end was some chef's kiss shit; perfect. Great job.

They warned Us

The video is bone chilling

What I find most eerie and difficult to wrestle with is that the AI in the game make very valid points. At least in terms of problems like rampant garbage information constantly trending and never fading.

La Li Lu Le Lo.

I love how confident the AI is when it says "Absolutely"

The reality is the honest brutality

To be fair, it wasn't about walking robot tanks.. :p

Kojima was at his creative peak for this game. Nothing held back. He hatched with Metal Gear, and then spread his wings with Metal Gear 2, and with Metal Gear Solid he began to fly. But with Metal Gear Solid 2 he reached new heights, heights of which that haven’t been reached since.

Oh my Gosh... Kojima... You were right all the time.....

I had my phone open on another app while doing something else and suddenly the colonel AI starts talking in my headphones from this video. Nightmare fuel.

This will blow up

imagine someone hack the entire time square billboard and show this video to civilians

This aged well, too well.

Outstanding job! Really gives chills!

I always listen this part of the game when I am trying to get some shut eye....idk why but its just refreshing to me because at least I am somewhat aware of whats going on more than most, and now it seems most of those people who ignored the signs are going bat shit crazy because they cant handle reality and how effed up this world can truly be...of course we should always look to the brighter side of things, stay well friends.

What a masterpiece of editing

The first time I played this game I poop my pants in this scene. I was 18 at the time

Kojima is God! The man saw this coming even though the age of the internet was just beginning at 1999

Crazy how this held up, especially now with the AI voices we have.

Shrek: "Can you stop being prophetic FOR ONE MINUTE KOJIMA!"

great upload

Love what you did with this, great stuff.

Remember, they had to edit this game just before launch because 9/11 occurred. Now we have our artificial intelligence (AI) systems they spoke about in this game. When we get the SOP system in mgs4, then we're really screwed.

it's strange that this vid could perfectly be one of the "real footages" that appears in some codec conversations

The reality of 2024

MGS2 and Deus Ex (2000), i think they were trying to tell us something. But instead of pondering what, people instead took to heart Raiden slipping on bird poopoo, and JC doing the funny haha what a shame quote.

I swear I get chills just listening to this

My favorite part of the game

From 2001...But written in 1999, which is even better ;)

nice edit.

When it comes down to abusing censorship for malicious objectives the question becomes "who are we to judge or interpret the perception of truth for others let alone be qualified for it?"

my favourite political party, transgender

In regards to the small forums bit the way you done that made me think of the galaxies in the universe flying away from each other as the universe expands due to increasing dark energy

Written in 1999 . Made into a video game that released just after 9/11.

I literally was working on the same video and saw that you beat me to it. I can’t say I would have done a better job. It’s eerie how accurately Kojima was able to predict the current state of affairs, regardless of what the game was actually about. It’s so relevant.

I never watched a video that chilled me so much

A masterpiece. Remember when that guard went peepee on Raiden’s head? A true masterpiece indeed.

2:45 the meme...

that influencer thing hit me pretty hard, made me rethink how I get my information

Damn this is good. Does anyone have access to the track thougth? It's terrifyingly awesome.

Got chills down my spine multiple times, even though I've heard this speech so many times. Adding some real-life footage and commonly used social media apps as talking images dramatically intensified the gravity of what the AI was trying to prevent; an eerie, contextless dystopia governed by "truth". Kojima and his team literally prophesized the future on a 2001 video game. Visionaries, all of them.

The La Li Lu Le Lo have already won.

KJ Knew what was coming - so good

I collect knowledge and i fucking loved how you used mgs2 for real life stuff great job

So, everything Solidus feared, has actually come to pass?

There it is.

Okay don't take me as an apologist guys. But technically the patriots had the least kills and unnecessary deaths in the game. Thats what made me stop and wonder if they weren't just gaslighting us.

Gameplay : stealth soldier vs giant robots Lore :

Can someone send this to Nina Jankowicz ? We literally have a Disinformation Governance Board.

We're in the flashpoint now boys.

This is a perfect edit adapted to it. The original name of this, is called Ideological Subversion, it's how context is created. First part of it is Demoralization, second is Destabilization, Third is Crisis, and lastly: Normalization. “What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American to such an extent that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.” "“They are programmed to think and react to certain stimuli in a certain pattern [alluding to Pavlov]. You can not change their mind even if you expose them to authentic information. Even if you prove that white is white and black is black, you still can not change the basic perception and the logic of behavior.” "“As I mentioned before, exposure to true information does not matter anymore,” said Bezmenov. “A person who was demoralized is unable to assess true information. The facts tell nothing to him. Even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures; even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union and show him [a] concentration camp, he will refuse to believe it, until he [receives] a kick in his fat-bottom. When a military boot crashes his balls then he will understand. But not before that. That’s the [tragedy] of the situation of demoralization.” - Yuri Bezmenov kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j5-Eqcx62r60g3k.html

Man, the original codec was mind-breaking, but this was even more freaky. Kudos to you i guess wow.

I think I'm gonna find a nice hole to cry in.

Imagine if this talk was by a half body Rose and Roy Campbell And whom talks just change their eye colour

This came out in 2001, crazy.

Our beloved monsters... enjoy yourselves.

The game purposely featured snake in places where you play as Raiden in its trailers to add to the "propaganda" and "fake news" themes of the game. Absolutely genius

Brilliant.

Solidus was right..

More people need to watch this speech I think

3:48 what is the name of the application that is between Uber and Twitter ?

The counter Argument to Deus Ex's Helios Merger.

This get scarier each day, especially when we are now entering the age of artificial intelligence

Who would have guessed GW was the good guy all along.

its getting too real

We live in a society

also because raiden eventually turns into a robot hybrid, so of course he had to hear this speech

My god, this game's script was written in 1999. Before social media, before smartphones, before the internet even became mainstream.

You can view the ai as part of the big stock firms and holdings such as blackrock as one in the same. They reward certain companies with points and bumps if they follow whats acceptable

Did they make you censor a certain flag? Wow this is "creating context" in action

Its crazy to think that this game franchise also has bipedal tanks and a woman giving birth during d-day.

At least anon liked the Cybergoth Dance Party video
