Yeah I totally agree

I posted something similar in another Reddit thread about this:

"My theory is that they are confessing that the music industry is turning them mad,confusing their identity and what their purpose is in life , at the same time, they also think the fans are just as mad, cuz they use new jeans as like a coping mechanism ,for the harsh world they live in, filled with deadlines that never end to chase,the scary bear i.e. the opressors, as outlined in the drawings they made and at the beginning her smashing the clock and towards the end, the cartoon simulation in the city and also flashbacks of other people who attended the therapy meeting like the builders It's also talking about parasoical relationships (fans and idols) again I think ,like in ditto

Idk it seems music artists tend to say what they really feel in a music video or song lyrics,never in interviews and mostly they never give a solution or moral of the story .sometimes they disguise the song making u think it's just about romance or something fun,but really there is a hidden meaning,like OMG

It's like new jeans is aware we are in the matrix and the coping mechanisms people use ,like following idols and idols being a slave to society,to tend to their needs, as depicted on her running on the record player cd"
