Man dies on New York street: nobody stopped to help him.


Considering the relative proportions, what can be seen are metaphors for what happens in Wikimedia projects.

These other videos are equally metaphors for what goes on frequently on Wikimedia projects.
The first one is a bit long but it has a lot of important information:

Uighur woman kills Han Chinese


Metaphorically these are trivial scenes at the Brazilian Wikipedia:


Back stabbing


Attempted murder


Yet more stabbing


In summary, this is a metaphor for what goes on at the Brazilian Wikipedia:


As you do unto others
