After many difficulties rendering, here is my short movie. It's still converting, so I could not embed it.
The concept is about the Horseshoe Political Model. This model suggests that the extreme ends of the political spectrum share a lot of common interest, which is why it's quite easy for some to jump from the far left to the far right.
To make it easy to understand, every regime is explained with pizza in a school canteen.
The following is the entire script of the voice-over:
Explaining Politics with Food
Hello and welcome to our school!
We have a unique system here.
To explain the political spectrum we built
several canteens.
Each canteen serves as an example for a
different form of regime.
Let me show you around!
COMMUNISM
Welcome to the Communist Canteen
The canteen decides what’s on the menu.
It is very cheap.
But without any choice, all the students get
the same food.
SOCIALISM
This is the Socialist Canteen
When some students don’t have money
…for extra toppings on the pizza,
the richer ones have to give them the money to
buy.
DEMOCRACY
Welcome to the Democratic Canteen
In this canteen, the students can vote for
different types of food,
The one with the most votes is served for the
whole week.
LIBERTARIANISM
This is the Libertarian Canteen
Some students here can only buy the simple pizza,
While others have enough money to buy every
topping,
They don’t share; everyone pays for their own
food.
ANARCHISM
The Anarchist Canteen
There is no regime here,
Students have to fight for the food they want
Weapons, Pokémon, teaming-up;
Anything is allowed because there is no
government to punish anyone
HORSESHOE MODEL
You’ve seen all the canteens. Allow me to
explain what the horseshoe model is.
As you see here, left and right are opposites.
However, opposites attract.
Political views change and people jump from one
end to the othe
So the spectrum can be seen as a bending
horseshoe
Which canteen would be your favorite?
