YouTuber DarkAntics takes on Hollywood's prevalence of bald people being portrayed as villains.

New August Amazon/Hulu Titles Include 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,' 'CSI' & More

DarkAntics, who is know for his insightful yet humorous videos discussing a variety of life's great topics, has posted a new video satirizing a specific group of people. The user, who has genetic baldness, uploaded a video called "PROBLEMATIC", which addresses the great number of bald villains in movies through the years.

"I'm bald, therefore I'm evil or somehow damaged," DarkAntics explains in the video. "This notion has seeped into every pour of our media and believe me I fully expect you to sit there blind to your hair privilege and not have any understanding of how this pervasive negative portrayal of bald people has affected your bias."

Netflix Movies Added In August Include 'The Hurt Locker' & More

He lists famous bald villains like Lex Luthor of Superman, Bane of The Dark Knight Rises, Voldemort of Harry Potter and more in the video, arguing that he has had enough of bald people being portrayed as villains in Hollywood.

While the video takes a serious tone, it is clear as it goes on that he is satirizing minority groups unfavorably categorized as "social justice warriors." DarkAntics says in the description of the video, "This is a satire about how professional victims and offense takers critique art."

He is poking fun at individuals who become outraged about various depictions of minorities and women in media, all the while making unfair generalizations about the majority.

The video even includes a parody of the Bechdel test (which counts the number of times women speak to each other in a movie, not about a man) called "The Baldel test". This test determines how many times two bald people speak to each other about a character who doesn't have a full head of hair.

DarkAntics also mentions in the comments section of the video: "BEFORE YOU COMMENT: If you criticize this video, and you have hair, then you're a baldist and I won't stand for it. If you criticize this video and you're bald, then you are expressing internalized baldism and I won't stand for it. Basically, I'm right no matter what so please stop harassing me."

The video has gone viral and already has over 30,000 hits since it was posted on Sunday.
