As I watched the video "Dear young people, Don't vote" by an organization who call themselves "Knock the Vote" I will say that I responded with like maybe a couple of feelings that got to me when I watched this for the first time. After watching this video with my eyes both wide open from surprise I either felt surprised for what the people in the video had to say or I felt quite offended from it but I think it was meant to happen to young viewers.What I thought about this video is that it showed to me what I do not usually see from seniors as they show that they just make fun of young people for not doing something very important for society.
What this video says about the people who go out and vote is that they want everyone to be involved with these elections but that is a problem for them because many and many of the youth are not getting themselves to be part of this situation. This makes the people who vote get upset with them and start to mock them for it. They mock them by saying that they are a bunch of individuals who whine for their own problems, and say that know they won't vote and it sounds like they are betting on those odds. Besides, the seniors get to vote for them and it will count.
This video's objective was to mainly show a message to the young with this mockery that was meant to encourage them to vote in elections. But to be honest at first I really do not know how this this video would encourage the youth as i thought it would discourage them more. Then I figured that it wasn't the case. This video encourages the youth by making them highly feel effected after being known that they are being made fun of from the elderly and so they would not just let this slide by. So now it would make them stand up for themselves to prove that they could make themselves become involved with voting for elective candidates.
