I don't usually watch these random kind of videos, but he's right. That is an observation from experimental psychology with pigeons and he illustrates it with a very human behaviour we've all experienced -- been there done that.

Then the conclusion he draws regarding maga racism is spot on. We can also call it "rearguard action" and "last gasp" and "death throes", even though the actions impact lots of people and inflict lots of pain. But this guy's analogy is very good, better than those.

He lays it out directly and clearly without the usual kind of wasted verbiage we hear in so many posted videos here.
