DHMIS Critical Approaches: A Marxist Analysis
Hey, folks. Something weird happened with the audio for this video, so apologies in advance if it sounds a little weird.
This is the third part of my Critical Approaches series, in which I am seeking to unpack the viral horror masterpiece, Don't Hug Me I'm Scared. In this installment, I will be using a Marxist lens to analyze the work, and I am pleased to say that Don't Hug Me I'm Scared really lends itself to a Marxist analysis. You don't necessarily need to watch my first two videos in order to understand this one, but if you want additional context, it would probably help.
