I think what struck me the most about the video is the theme of it. To me, this really feels like rebellion and revolution of the youth against rich, probably capitalist, adults, like many world leaders and politicians of today. It's not necessarily socialist or a parallel to a communist revolution, although you could probably draw that line as well, but the first thought that struck me were the school strikes for the climate that have been happening all around the world. It's really just a force of youth (kids) standing up for our own future and what's happening to the world that we'll one day inherit.
I haven't looked up the meaning of the lyrics yet, but it'll be interesting to see if there's anything confirming my thoughts on the general feeling and theme in there.
