if you don’t know how to fix it, please stop breaking it.

I haven’t seen this before - but it’s scaring me that this video is 16 years old and still as relevant as it was back then, if not more. I think the message in this video is so strong that it gives me goosebumps - and I am ashamed that we still ain’t fixin it. I would say it’s a must-see. Enjoy.
