It was directed by Scott Stuckey and filmed in Los Angeles last month. So, this song is about re-imagining our society for the future, for our children and not making the same mistakes over and over again and allowing greed to corrupt our thinking.” Music Video “All these people, they have more value than a monument to slave traders, but they don’t have more value in the consciousness of society, and I think it’s devilish and obscene, and I want power to be dismantled, and a society re-imagined. and how the hand-wringing overshadowed the real struggles of the marginalized in society: Manson tied that awakening to the confederate statues being toppled in the U.S. And, in fact, human beings are being hurt, and this is what you must focus on.’ That was like a slap in the face.” The beautiful people that I was with said, ‘But why are you so shocked?
