I suspect it's because lego AI looks less off than AI anything else and is probably the same reason the Chinese wuxia videos have that puppets with 60's color grading look.

I like that this one seems to be aimed more toward a domestic/sympathetic audience than the first one, which was entirely a diss track toward Trump for American war supporters. If I was in an Iranian bunker right now, I would have your exact response.

They chant "HAIDER!" which is untranslated. What does it mean?

HAIDER

It means lion, and also refers to Ali ibn Abi Talib, a warrior honorific. So it has specific Shia war fighting connotations.
