sir, you are amazing.

Thank you Aden for having the courage to speak out! Whistleblowing a bunch of predatory scammers like Hun Ming Kwang and his dodgy organization is not easy. Your 3 part series is well-made. The bulk of it provides sufficient substantiation and clearly shows how Hun Ming Kwang and his organization are out there to harm people and hence cannot be trusted. Hun Ming Kwang lacks credibility due to the many things he does, like being unable to disprove that his name is not in the ICF website, he yells and throw things at volunteers when they made mistakes, his website blasting loud sounds and bright colors simultaneously which are detrimental to mental health. Your videos also inspire others to speak out against these horrible people as well! They are not the gods they made out to be and the more people know the truth, the harder it is for the scammers to scam and subvert others! We will spread the word as much as we can!:)

Woke is not evil, its just narcissistic and naive.

Of course evil under the cover of good

Hey man, I appreciate your thought-provoking content. Always good to see you post.

Why do you believe that you are not evil? Are they wrong about woke people pushing for forced diversity? About the demonization of other groups at the expense of others?

Well I think the way it's usually used is indicating a really forced diversity push. Something that was a message first, and entertainment second. It's mostly used with entertainment stuff as it is. I've called things woke because they're insufferable terrible pieces of media with zero self-reflection, and often demonizing other groups of people. I wouldn't call something like Marvel's Spider-Man 2 woke for instance, even if many would. Because it has very healthy diversity and doesn't demonize people that don't fit certain boxes. A problem with a lot of these things someone like myself would call woke is that they really promote division and special privileges while trying to lie to us about reality. For example, white privilege. I'm sure to some degree it exists, but what's promoted is often the stuff of lala land. It's just a scapegoat to pin their misfortunes on strangers of a different race or men. That's generally how it's used. Granted some people just slap woke on anything with even the slightest bit of diversity or a minority main character. Which sucks, but it's easy to assume that may be the angle when so many of these hostile pushes do exist.

Woke = Eyes wide open

The word "woke" lost all meanining from its origin in the 1930s, nowdays "woke" is pure evil. Why? Because it's advocating for privilege and special treatment of "special" groups at the clear disadvantage of other groups. And those "special" groups are defined by inmutable and inborn characteristcs such as sex or race, thats pure racism and sexism combined! Racism is racism, there is no such thing as reverse racism!

The whole transgenderism thing is coming up at a time when a lot of people seem to be talking about texts left out of the Bible and religions before the Bible pretty much stating that God is genderless. God being genderless obviously could be true. We may never know but I do find it interesting that agnostic texts and pretty much any text written before the Bible. It was stated that male and female are equal and that God is genderless

I will say some ppl take things too extreme but calling ppl woke as an insult for not wanting ppl to be racist is so weird to me

Are you telling me that genetic disorders are under the category of sex ('-' Sounds disingenious. Even more when you try to bridge the correlation of simplifications, as in synthesis, being lies...

Why is your moral compass the right one? i agree about the premisse that the word "woke" is devoid of meaning, but let's be real, you still get what most of your "adversaries" are critcizing. Your video felt like a nothing-salad. But just awnser my point with honesty.

Woke as an insult is so weird because it's like, "lol you want to live in a better world where everyone is happy and equal!" Yes... how is that bad?

I only started watching Dark Matter recently but he's an absolutely stand up guy. If you're familiar with him you might also be with the atheist community on UA-cam; a guy called Jerry Coyne has recently been subject to a lot of entirely deserved criticism for publishing some incredibly ill-informed, inaccurate, outright disgusting and harmful writing about trans people, and his response has been more-or-less in-line with the 'anti-woke' rhetoric you describe.

The speaker curses like Satan was his first words to sound tough. Not interested in cowards that hides behind words. So I left this message and left this cowardly place.

More people need to see this and greater awareness need to be had.

Love your videos on self help groups. Keep up the good work! At risk of sounding like a nagging aunty- pls take care as well yah.. doing these videos can take a lot out of you.

This is brilliantly scripted

Homo Homo sapiens?

i really love your videos! Funny, informative, entertaining. It feels like im talking to a friend!

please give us more of the philosophical videos if you want to, this was really good!

Unfortunately in my country, the rich and powerful want us to remain uneducated. It's not just media literacy, but literacy in general has taken a nose dive to the point that younger people don't even recognize historical facts as truth. They start to question the horrors that have happened in the world and say it's not true. It feels like we're going backwards. Hopefully that changes one day.

something something terry pratchett "lies to children" something something only commenting to boost you in the algorithm, not saying anything interesting - it's your video, your statements stand :)

"The majority is always sane." Larry Niven.

Where are the views!? This is funny, smart, and most importantly interesting and novel. At least to me.

Also have you seen the movie "the invention of lying" ot reminds me of your starting point lol. They live in a world where lying isn't a thing and one man realizes he can lie and everyone will believe him since noome lies in that world

Just dropping a comment to boost your video. You deserve more views.

Because they feel like it. They just do what they want with total disregard for how it might affect others for their own satisfication

Here's an interesting idea: talk about potential SOLUTIONS to problems. Identify a problem, but don't just talk about what's wrong with them, talk about what can be done to alleviate them. I feel like its so easy talking about what's wrong, but nearly no one talks about SYSTEMS that can dislodge the problems. Removing money and capitalism from media, and why public funded news outlets are better, is a good suggestion for an informative solution video

never seen this channel before, but i love the topic of this video, and i'm excited to follow along with the series as it comes out!

I’m binging all your videos right now, I absolutely love your channel. You are so clearly well educated and intelligent but you deliver information in such a simple way that makes it so easy to understand and relay to others. Excellent content, keep rocking!

I’m curious too, I’m subscribing to hear your answer. I’m look forward to it.

greatest singaporean youtuber to grace us i will be sharing

UA-cam blessed me with this in my recommended. Not even far in and already know imma like the video. Keep it up

Its nothing surprising right wing rises when things go bad so we find things to blame and its often people that are not like them, earlier it was jews now its immigrants/ trans people. The sad part is reversing this by rebuilding trust and empathy takes time often in years. I am speaking from experience right wing won once in my country 15 years ago and are still winning.

I believe that a south park episode touches on this, maybe that can be q resource in your journey

They see other people as not much more than animals. Look at what the people do to cows, pigs and chickens. We humans are just cruel monsters and why is it bad to be cruel against monsters?

Just stumbled on this on reddit. I'll be curious to see where this goes.

Just stumbled upon your channel. So happy I did. ✊🏽

Hallo! i'v been subscribed for a few months and just lurking up until this point, and have to admit to this video eliciting a feeling of eagerness as to what you're going to make of this. should be interesting. before i discuss you question, i really like the fact that you have cited "The Alt-Right Playbook" because while you are asking WHY this is happening, that series answered HOW. okay <claps then rubs hands together> time for the pseudo-controversial take - i believe that those evil people that society is having so much trouble with right now are VICTIMS of a malicious propaganda campaign / undeclared cold war on the part of the russian government that is designed to destabilise western democracies in order for russia to be able to re-take a position of global superpower formerly held by their predecessors the soviet union. also, i acknowledge that identifying them as victims implies that they are not at fault for their own actions and therefore do not have to work to change their behaviour, that implication in this situation is wrong because their behaviour IS an enormous problem and it DOES need to change really badly. so yeh, Ian's concept of the alt-right pipeline is HOW these people are turned to evil, and to make america weak and, say for example ... unable to come to the aide of a nation like ukraine that has been literally fighting russia for the right to exist for the past decade now ... or lack the power needed to stop a minor ally from committing genocide using american munitions ... or elect a president who has sought out a legacy of actively improving the lives of all people for their entire career (Obama is the closest to that the US has seen i would say in my lifetime and i'm nearly 50, and yes i know that i'm talking about a politician and that there are good reasons to argue against this point hahaha) as far as what enabled this .... get ready for a roller coaster here! queue potentially controversial statement number two ... Rupert Murdoch (owner of fox news and, well, close to half of all media outlets on the planet) is a russian oligarch and has been since the 1990s. see, in 1999 ol' Rupe got married for the third time, less than a month after divorcing his childrens' mother and wife of more than 30 years he married a wealthy chinese "businesswoman" named Wendy Deng on his yacht in the hudson bay in NYC, there are public records of at least three russian oligarchs on that vessel that afternoon, and just coincidentally a certain former KGB operative who had been in East Germany during the fall and dissolution of the soviet union named Vladimir Putin had JUUUST gotten himself installed as prime minister of russia and publicly declared to be the "chosen successor" to then-russian-president Boris Yentsin. now, i can neither confirm nor deny that putin was also on that leaking bathtub that day, but can confirm that there have been rumours of his attendance ever since the world noticed him properly for the first time on the 31st of december that year when he blackmailed Yeltsin into accepting a soft coup and his long-awaited retirement (it was either that or a noodle, IFKWIM) other people have laid out evidence of putin's disinformation campaign against the west and how russian intelligence was rebuilt according to the playbook laid out by a fruitcake named Alexandr Dugin in the early 2000s, and then from there the financial ties between either russian intelligence operatives or russian oligarchs and people like the Koch brothers (who funded the whole "Tea Party" right-wing extremism that served as a precurser to the MAGA movement) and the Heritage Foundation (who authored project 2025) and US oligarchs like jack dorsey, peter thiel and his sycophant pet Apartheit Clyde ... uhh i mean elon ... and a few other names (strangely, many being recognisable also from the rise of OpenAI and crypto and the whole techbro douchebag community in general) ... uhhh, where is this sentence going? oh yeh - all those financial links can be traced thanks to investigative reporters NOT employed by newcorp, and those people are more coherent than i am so read their stuff lol the next bit that i want to draw paticular attention to is the other end of that marriage of rupert murdoch to chinese spy ... uhh i mean oligarch ... uh i mean "businesswoman" Wendy Deng back in 1999 - they got divorced in 2012, and a few months later Wendy shows up hanging around the offices and residences of old uncle vlad, and they're getting along GREAT! in fact, they got married <dun dun DUNNNNNNN> and, because i'm talking about russia, of COURSE the appropriate phrase right here is "and then it got worse" so the former Mrs Wendy Deng Murdoch is now Mrs Wendy Deng Putin and rupert's two youngest daughters are now vlad's stepchildren, and Wendy's best friend (who happens to be married to a russian oligarch named Ambromovich who is closely aligned with poot-poots) has a mother who recently divorced from another russian oligarch because that one (Alexandr Zhukov) had lost relevance due to being an oil magnate when russian oil is suddenly unsellable, so wendy introduced her best friend's soviet intelligentsia mother to rupert and they got married about six months ago if this problem facing society right now is going to get dealt with AT ALL then one of the very first moves by absolute necessity needs to be that rupert and his son lachlan are declared to either be traitors or enemies of the state (depending on which countries make the declaration) where they have their family assets stripped from them, nationalised, and then set to work for the benefit of society as opposed to how they've been run for the last half a century and more. doing that takes away the loudhailer that these obnoxious douchebags use to spread their hatred and a MASSIVE chunk of their ability to publicly co-ordinate efforts like what is happening now. TL:DR it is a global co-ordinated effort to destabilise western governments and democracies by causing internal societal strife. the cold war has been redeclared, but only the russians are doing anything in it.

Sometimes you find on UA-cam the little nugget of gold that hasn't blown up yet, this is one of them; hopefully you get the recognition you deserve here soon

I'm a Malaysian living and working in the US. You're absolutely right that looking at it as simple radicalization is not enough anymore. I can't imagine what could drive someone to punch so low, it's quite literally as if they don't see the other side as human. It stems from hatred, from otherization, but I'm not sure what could be the source of that hatred. All the typical "reasons" (maintaining normalcy, protecting kids, curing mental health "issues") are not the sorts of goals that would drive someone to say something like that to a child contemplating suicide. I used to personally think it boils down to education. Reading comprehension is at an all-time low, even amongst adult Americans. Misinformation is easily spread and accepted. But there's something else behind that, now. There are people out there that know all about this stuff, and still choose to hate.

Were trans singaporean really worried about trump? This is surprising to me

A couple of notable charities to donate to. Hopefully, one day, we won't need them. But for now, here they are: For humanitarian aid in Palestine: www.anera.org www.unrwa.org For mental health in the U.S.A: www.nami.org For LGBTQ in the U.S.A: gaycenter.org/ www.thetrevorproject.org/

I work for one of the largest health insurance companies in the world, and I don't use the insurance they provide because I can't afford it.

what can normal citizens like us can do though in order to make better decisions and help the country on expertise we arent good on if charities may not help though?

Private health insurance as a regressive tax is a cool insight

Just go ask the richest ministers in the world to donate, instead of the regular folks… 😊 Thank you for your video, it’s a good one to bring up for sure. Appreciate your work 😊🎉 Keep up the good work. 👍👍
