This is one very angry anti-Olympics clip. It begins: "In 1936, the Nazis introduced the Olympic torch relay to the world. Since then, the Olympics have acted as a fascist Trojan horse, masquerading as an international sporting event, but benefiting the military-industrial complex." It's punctuated by a distorted "Wake up!" cry (sounds like Satan), and accompanied by newsreel footage of Hitler in Berlin along with assorted protest imagery. Whatever the merits of their cause, they're undermined here.
