The Vimeo documentary on Yanis Varoufakis was pretty good. I've heard it critiqued for smacking of hero worship or the like but sometimes certain people have a particularly good point and giving them your full attention can serve YOU more than it does anything for them.

I'll even add some hashtags here to try to get more attention on this. #politics #documentary #movie #economics

> you made me remember this video

Which in turn reminded me of this video of Klemen Slakonja as Slavoj Zizek;

"We need to cut the ball,
The balls of those in power."

@resl
Cut the Balls is one of a handful of videos I return to again and again, whenever I need cheering up. Some of the others include;

* The official video for Sleep Now in the Fire, where Rage Against The Machine forced Wall St to shut down early in 1999;

"No money was harmed."

* The flash mob video for Everything's Gonna Be Alright by The Babysitters Circus;
