Hernan Cortes (1485-1547) was a Spanish colonizer and conqueror, who leaded the conquest of the Mexican territories, that started in 1519 with the occupation of Veracruz. The tales about the sacking of the Mexican capital, Tenochtitlan, are still legendary nowadays.
After the takeover of Veracruz, Cortes gave the order of sinking his own ships (it was thought they were burnt, but nowadays that hypothesis is being questioned). Anyway, he destroyed his ships on purpouse to force his men to go forward and conquer the New World, both in the militar and spiritual (goal of spreading the Christian religion) dimensions.
- Agreement with his decision: of course it is an incredibly effective manner of ensuring that his men would be motivated to conquer the territory, mainly because they did not have an alternative choice. They had to become rulers there or be lost in the middle of unknown lands. It can be claimed how the ultimate goal justifies the means.
- Disagreement with the decision: it can be argued how unethical is that he prevented his men from deciding if they wanted to participate or not on the mission. He eliminated the choice.
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A.

Answer:
Because he is taken.
Explanation:
My interpretation of this philosophical clip is that Justin, the boy’s friend is “taken” by the grips of the video game Fortnite. We are following Justin’s is in a downward spiral into addiction. Eventually, his previously mentioned friend exclaims he is “cracked” at Fortnite. Now, this can be given many meanings, however the one that stuck out most to me is that eventually, Justin hits rock bottom, and cracks. Now, at this point Justin’s friend, who seems to be narrating Justin’s descent into madness makes abhorrent moaning noises. To me, this represents what is happening in Justin’s mind. He can’t escape his crippling Fortnite addiction. He doesn’t even gain happiness from playing anymore, yet he can’t stop. The moaning noises aren’t indicative of sexual pleasure, but cries for help.
