It is like screen saver moving patterns or corridors with a strange field of view zooming effect.
Nothing special compared to purpose made screen savers.

Really, I don't think you need to worry. A prevailing latent attitude in the comments is that the brain is somehow super malleable and subject to external control through some incantations. Like subliminal messaging, it will at most be moral panic that fades, and then people will act like they never believed in it.
