A soldier represents the artists fight as an urban guerilla, against media impositions which is attempting to control our lives.
As a member of society, the individual is forced to obey a number of obligations so that the system can continue to function. Freedom no longer exists, it is merely a liberty that has been built by some marketing laws; it is represented as a product.
The individual has to fight in a virtual world so that he /she can evade, and clash with societal norms, which are attempting to dictate the way one should live and assert that happiness can only be reached if you hold specific values.
