Mary Harrington has worked hard to organize the many threads of modern human decay into governing principles that are simple enough for us to all get our heads around. I'm with her on the self defeating technology principle. As a medical doctor for over 40 years, I sadly retire to see that the general health of most humans has plumited. It feels like all my efforts to help humans have been in the face of a more powerful negative trend. Infact most humans seem to be self distructive and have no empathy for others. Mary has increadible powers of insight into the collective human condition, and has the gift of english language expression for our delight. Many thanks.

How is this AI? Are you sure you're not AI?@@homosexualbadger
It is strange isn’t it? But I doubt ai would misspell words. There is something off about it though
Damn. Don't MDs need to know how to spell? Do you write prescriptions?
Nah, I'm gay with your dad@@sadiemakesmesmile
This format is more natural than most, very good work and a very interesting (and encouraging) series of conversations.
"People also, when they agree with each other, make plans together, and don't necessarily tell everyone those plans--which is a conspiracy, but it's what people do naturally...."
Excellent point. Conspiratorial behavior shouldn't be treated as outlandish or unlikely simply on the basis that it remains opaque to outsiders.
Key ingredient neglected; Intent to gain from other's loss. Such a common toy tossed around but we fail to grasp it.
They really buried the point, though, didn't they?
If two young lovers conspire to meet after hours, it's one thing.
If two coqorkers conspire to get another fired, it's quite something else.
0:51 plundered colonized an enslaved peoples is not how ‘we’ became rich . Slavery hold back the economic growth of a country because there is no pressure to improve efficiency because workers are trapped. This is detailed in Sowells analysis of why the Industrial Revolution happened in Europe not America. Humans have been slaving for all history yet this growth of material wealth happened in the last 300 years, when slavery was abolished in 1836! So for more than half of that last 300 years the world under the British empire was not slaving, it was expending resources to stop slavery. Finally, look at any post colonial country and you’ll see they are intimately better off materially post colonisation than before
Wanted to commend the sound quality on what was obviously quite a windy day! Also, certainly not as an afterthought to the sound, the way that Mary Harrington speaks is incredible; as in her ideas are communicated not only clearly but poetically and with wonderful similes throughout. She has truly been blessed by God as a wordsmith!
How natural is a beautiful conversation, and how lucky am I to be privy to this exchange. What excellent direction, to feel that there is no direction at all -- that there is no camera to separate us, that I am just as present as the wind to their words.
Gloriously quaint format and very well produced. I could watch this all day.
Wonderful presentation. A breath of fresh air to the usual podcast studio!
I really like this format. Highly enjoyable!
"Human personhood being universal" is not a Christian vantage point, though. The Stoics had that kind of a vantage point as well; and it is present in Confucianism and Buddhism at least.
Very good point
Does not Buddhism claim that personhood is an illusion?
Buddhism doesn't teach that. 🤷
@@TheLincolnrailsplitt "While Buddhists famously deny the existence of a self, they distinguish between selves and persons, and allow for the existence of persons as entities having a sort of derived reality.

In my admittedly anecdotal experience the zoomers look increasingly dead behind the eyes.
I go to a coffee shop across the street from a college every day. The zoomers are a mess. No zest, no animus, no potency. I'm fascinated by the gruesomeness of it. But also deeply troubled.
Yes, in my profession I have unfortunately had to work with quite a few zoomer women in their 20's and all of them were some form of .... crazy.
I very happily have shifted my work so that I am no longer dealing with them.
@@555Trout The only benefit I can see to it (as a reactionary) is that many zoomers are so lacking in any cultural or historical grounding that they lack many of the taboos that the boomers have about WW2, racism etc etc. It is no coincidence that many are turning to islam. It is the strongest horse on offer in terms of meaning and structure
@@LS-xs7sg Seems a stretch to see any benefit. I hope you are right though.
On a related note....There is a Catholic HS nearby and the kids come in sometimes. In their uniforms. And they are alive, vibrant, focussed and engaging young people. So vividly different from the college kids that it's hard to overstate.
They give me hope.
@@LS-xs7sg I figured they turn to Islam because the wokes have decided to make it a protected class.
South Park did a great job mocking the whole protected class of Islam in episode 200 and 201.
A fascinating conversation wonderfully presented.
How is this recorded? I really fancy the format, style and aesthetics.
The PLACE where these talks were done was very meaningful to me because, the pace and the feeling of the narrative reminded me of how the intricate tapestry of life has changed rather rapidly. Yes maybe we need to slow down sometimes to a gentle stroll instead of enthusiastically operating at computer speed. We humans are starting to feel and measure the consequences of the Financial , and morally bereft overlords. Great freedoms have come at a cost. Have hope. Have peace. Have love. Slow down and smell the roses.
Mary Harrington is beautiful. Whether you agree or not
She is lovely
Good Q and A and conversation session, very informative, I need to read more from her. The UK sure does have lovely countryside, hope to go back there someday.
Wonderful video. Succinctly explains its subject matter and has a wonderful visual and sound accompaniment. Well done.
Never bought progress as the ideology it is. And I tell you as ex-Californian., it hurt me, many, many times.. a culturally enforced lie..
Mary has built this entire intellectual shell for why she wants to be a stay at home mum. I read her book "Feminism against progress" and it was very profound and her perspective new, it was all about her. Her inability to keep a job, her feeling left out of socialization (her autism), her obsession with (biological) sex. This is the second interview I've heard from her (first being red scare) and this was less focused on her personhood which I appreciated.
sounds kindoff based tbh
If a women wrote a book all about herself that she couldn't keep a job, feeling left out of socialization (imagined racism or homophobia) and obsessed with (biological) sex. Then make it a woman of color or gay including screed about capitalism and it would be required reading at universities.
P.s
Reds are scary have you seen what collectivists have been up too lately?
Lol does she have ASD?
My wife and I have our third child on the way. Love you Mary
Great format. 👏👏
It never ceases to amaze me how very smart people can believe very stupid ideas.
Interesting. Lots of under-discussed topics. I quibble over many of their assumptions but loved the chat.
Loved all of this.
I think there are less differences between china's use of surveillance and the UKs use of surveillance than you say. The UK is just slower with the implantation.
Enjoyed this walk and conversation. Thanks
I completely agree and I think we should be asking what progress means and if indeed we want what that is.
Indeed, defining terms is always a good idea. Progress as a measure of technology advances (from a mere perspective of technometrics (smaller, faster, lighter, greener, more efficient , etc) is a very different thing from progressive politics, which in turn means something quite different today than what it meant most of last century.
Love Mary- just a personal experience of what she talks about around 1:19 my friends and I (grammar school girls late 90's) weren't put on the pill by our parents we took ourselves to family planning clinics and didn't even tell them. Teen magazines and sex education, then called PSHE, told us we could, so we did. We felt empowered and grown up at the time. This was in one sense our own choice but actually it also wasn't- it was just definitely the 'done thing' at the time. We never questioned the sensibility of pumping ourselves with hormones for the next 15 years or so. Most of my peers (now 40) choose non hormonal or barrier methods of contraception.
Excellent. Really enjoyed it, thank you.
I was fascinated by this until they completely misrepresented the concept of the 15 minute city. It is a planning idea that new developments should have all essential services within a 15 minute walk of where you live. It has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with restricting how often you can you leave you house or how far you can travel.
You're completely and utterly incorrect I'm afraid. I have a feeling that the vast majority of ppl who react in the same way u have are basically coping.
What am I incorrect about?@@truthoverlies1820
Sure, it would be great if a city existed where everything you wanted was 15 minutes. I don't trust unelected bureaucrats to actually make cities that way, rather they would just create artificial barriers.
Officially, no, but we know what it will turn into.
I generally agree with the argument that apparent progress hides some regress. But her example of wealth and comfort increasing due to exploitation, colonization, and slavery is erroneous. For the most part, colonization didn’t exploit the colonized; it brought them better institutions, more security, more food, better employment, more rights.
I look forward to Mary’s interview on New Humanum.
Great film loved it, subscribed!
Nice. I want more
Very interesting discussion. Mary seems to ignore nuclear power and the future possibilities of fusion.
I had that same thought whilst listening to this.
Yes. Nuclear, solar, hydro, storage, etc. And fusion coming. But that would be progress so perhaps that breaks her model.
Nuclear generates electricity. I'm in favor of nuclear power, but not all industrial processes can be easily converted to electricity. Is there a workable electric steel mill anywhere?
@@joythought I think her starting point is more towards humanistic themes than rather technological. Future possibilities of technology solving or mitigating energy, food or transportation problems may come with heavy side effects we do not foresee yet. Some issues that I think demonstrate progress is real that are more on her mind such as life expectancy, global poverty and cure for many diseases that used to kill millions of people not so long ago. These are factual improvements globally that are hard to counter with collateral effects unless you are somewhat a cynic.
@@TrebizondMusic-cm6fp Electric arc furnaces use electricity and are very widely used in industrial metallurgy. And I'm sure it isn't beyond the wisdom of the world's engineers to design a smelting plant that is driven by electricity instead of combusting natural gas.
He got her in the last minute or two of the entire discussion, dude got a card carrying feminist to say out loud the most obvious, fundamental and comically trivial fact to everyone who is not mentally ill across all time and culture - paraphrasing; IF you want a society/culture to thrive then the fundamental building block of that culture is a traditional family structure. He stopped short out of mercy to get her to admit that traditional gender roles are the most efficient and effective format for that unit.
Very Odd. I clicked on this for the title, I didn’t realise that this was a ‘European Conservative’ channel. I would place myself as far left in the current Overton window. (Well I think I’m left wing, but just to be left wing is considered far left nowadays). I completely agree with everything she said in the first few minutes! But how could one possibly want to be conservative, even in a small C sense, and support unbridled capitalism? It’s steam rollering everything around us. Very odd that such people are on the right.
I recently read _Utopia of Usurers_ by G.K. Chesterton and it shattered my previous conceit of being a leftist libertarian.
Which shows how this whole big polarization thing is bullshit. The left complains about being labelled far-left, the right complains about being labelled far-right, those words are nothing more than insults today, they serve no bigger vision of the differences in point of view or the different tendencies in society (which are nothing bad or surprising). What you are asking is : why is Mary on the side of the bad guys ? Because she thinks beyond this useless polarization of ideas. She doesn’t care being labelled a conservative, because it’s not an insult, it’s more complex than it is pictured, and it has a variety of aspects (economical, cultural, historical, anthropological…). And so does the left. I personally don’t understand how it is not natural to people to go listen to « the other side » of one’s point of view. To spontaneously take input from other standing points in society to wrap your mind around some phenomenons. It should be completely normal and sane.
regardless of whether or not women are better at caring and nurturing, from what I can gather men as single parents generally have a much better success rate when it comes to raising kids who don't drop out and don't commit crimes and go to prison, so I wouldn't say it's an incoherent worldview like she tries to suggest.
Indeed. Besides, one uncomforatble thought is the idea that many of these Chads and Tyrones are born, not made. Perhaps commitmentment minded men have the right set of genes, and women do not choose them.
Love the convo, hate it while having dinner.
Just saw Harrison on Culture Forum and came to this channel... Had hoped it was more sane but then... The guests 😂
All online discussions should be conducted in this settings. Interrupted by a tractor halfway through being an essential ingredient.
No, not while eating. I and many go nut with that in the earphones.
great stuff
Brilliant!
I think the feminisation issue is part of the reason a lot of young boys idolise the Tate brothers. I don't think those young boys hate women all that much (though I imagine some do), they just respect that the Tates have shown them that it's possible to live a life that involves adventure, risk and danger instead of being stuck in an office all day. And people who have no interest in risk/adventure/danger/etc have such a hard time understanding those who do. It was like when people were ditching cosy and successful lives to join ISIS and all the "people become terrorists when they have no options in life" people were left scratching their heads...
If the ruling class wont fight for anything, we'll follow those who do
Tate's views are odious.
Will we ever see an episode of Symposia with Theodore Dalrymple? :)
That would be superb.
The issue modern humans face when encased in a fiscal system,
of 'forced' continued growth. Is population numbers.
Most entrepreneurs are bemoaning the decrease in youth population size,
of most western styled countries. With the 'disaster' of an ageing society.
"It is the defining and most important factor in society today" ...they all decry.
This is because their fiscal model must have new consumers buying,
new iterations of old products. In order to continue manufacturing limitless profit.
The US has open boarders to swell the amount of people buying stuff.
Europe would prefer the same system... their livelihood is based,
on an ever-growing, unstoppable amount of consumers.
The main issue with population size is freedom. The more there are,
the less human everyone becomes.There is no upside to this demographic.
The amount of freedom you enjoy, is directly linked to population size.
Take the food industry. Food is no longer made by 'traditional' methods.
It has been completely taken over by 'science'.
Who's main job requirement is to reduce cost.
To use a 'waste food product' instead of an expensive ingredient.
Also to keep foods shelf-life optimal, so they fill it with stuff,
from their fun box of chemicals : Fillers, Binders, Flowing agents,
anti-caking agents, carriers, artificial sweeteners, preservatives,
colourings and emulsifiers.
This has led to all processed food being detrimental to your health.
Never... has there been less hunger in the world, but processed foods,
are causing enormous health issues with those that are now not going hungry.
Even the non-processed variety of food-stuffs is heavily treated,
with chemicals 'from seed to plant' and then frozen for years in storage facilities.
Modern food is an alien species that no ancestor of ours has ever consumed.
This is directly related to feeding so many... through the only important factor,
the continued accumulation of wealth at all costs.
It is not hyperbole to say... that all of the food you purchase at your supermarket,
is ( albeit slowly ) killing you.
In the West, the future is organised and run with fiscal growth,
as the only measure of success. There're no mandates or societal goals.
Everyone that lives in the West feels this lack of a purpose,
lack of a reason to live... except to consume.
Sanctified individual greed to maximise consumption -
Which is the only principle Western society is set up for.
Line go up next fiscal quarter is destructive to all kinds of things.
I love how in many parts of the east, they haven't gone to open borders to prop up the pyramid scheme. It is fun to hear the UN and EU bureaucrats scram about muh pensioners.
@skylinefever Sadly, Japan has drastically changed course. It has chosen mass immigration to fill hundreds of thousands of service jobs. Family chain migration is also part of this new policy. There are already signs that the high trust and clean society is degrading. Homocide rates have increased for the first time in two decades.
She asks the same question I ask "progressives: what exactly are you progressing towards?
New/one world order. That's the goal. Totalitarian control over your life.
Then again keeping the question broadly open like that does make it kind of hard to find an answer. Longer life spans, lower child mortality, cure for and eradication of many infectious diseases that killed millions until last century, significant lowering the number of people living under poverty line in the last 30 years. These are global indicators, not western only. These are objective non-partisan themes that suggest there is some progress in some things.
@@andredemony I agree with all that you say. I refer to the capture of the word by one ideology. This has the effect of making ones opponent "regressive" by default. It's a brilliant play.
Another point to note is that we have made excellent progress in all those areas, so the question now concerns the desired end state for each issue when balanced against other trade offs. For example, equality of outcome. One cannot have freedom of choice and have everyone be equal in all things. Such a goal requires a Totaltarian system which severely impacts the progressive goal of increased freedom. As Sowell once said, and I paraphrase here, there are no solutions, only trade offs.
As a disclaimer, I am apolitical. I just work through these things in my mind for my own entertainment.
By the end, Mary is lit.
The same can be said about your analysis. You have decided the truth at the onset and then proved it.
I enjoy Mary's broader perspective but she starts out rough in this one. From about 0:43 to 1:05 she enunciates a set of contrasts that are absurd; yes, there is still war and torture, but in absolute and relative terms they are vastly diminished. To compare without noting the global reductions in hunger, poverty, violence, and war is misleading at best. I would refer her to Ola Rosling and his family's excellent work at Gapminder foundation. Things are better in most places for most people.
First time watching this show, is it supposed to be Tory in some sense? I think Mary is arguing the (free or unfree) market has shafted us all
No, not Tory in the least.
It is an intellectual discussion, not a political or tribal discussion. Many people seem to be unaware of the possibility of non-tribal discussions.
@@joythought they are aware. They fear it.
I would say the free market screw us all. It favored a few oligarchs over the masses, and the trickle down wealth was just oligarchs pissing all over us.
Perhaps an understanding that there is more to life than line goes up?
Many of the statements are patent nonsense....We (the british? or the english-speaking peoples?) has been built on the backs of plundered, colonized and enslaved peoples. I'm British Canadian. My ancestors were evicted from their lands in scotland...they then practiced subsistence farming in Canada, settling in a sparsely populated part of the country..as the country developed we migrated to the cities, got a modern education and joined an industrial society. The narrator of this piece is an over-confident, strident simplifier who thinks that all of western civilization can be reduced to the plunder and oppression of others. The history is much more complex and multi-faceted. Take India for example. Explain why the Indians have chosen to retain much of which the British created there....a parliamentary, multiparty system of government...th abolition of sati and other forms of female oppression...roads and railways....hospitals....factories...telegraphs...a system of schools and colleges...a military capable of defening the country...an impartial civil service...does that fit neatly into her characterization of a society built purely on pure oppression?? Did post 1948 India demolish all these institutions? No, it kept all of them.
Nice, you just described building a life on plundered land.
I live in Australia. Aren't we lucky to inherit terra nullius with the stumps removed in time of universal health and good dentistry.
Interesting musings on the 'cosmic order' of life and death in the wilds of the country. Roger Scruton also writes about this in his work 'On Hunting'. 'Necessary Violence' is a deeply politically incorrect idea today, but as you two discussed, it was a dynamic that brought order and cemented healthy forms of gendered identity and expression. Without violence, life does tend towards a totalising femininity, which is more harmful in many respects.
I point out to political advocates that they are violent by proxy in that they wish to see state violence used, if required, to force their fellow citizens to confirm to their views. They see themselves as "peaceful" and therefore do not like me pointing this out. The feel that having someone else enforce their views makes themselves peaceful.
@@ickster23that's a good point. I cannot claim to be peaceful if I am pushing for the state to demand others submit to my preferred behavioural and intellectual viewpoint so that I can feel comfortable and at peace with the world.
Brilliant woman.
Wandering in the weeds to nowhere
When did progress come to mean everything gets better in every way with no costs?
That is all too often how progress is presented: a new technology or practice that solves a serious problem, and with no negatives or downsides.
As a socialist, there's a lot to agree with here.
It certainly doesn't seem as though you know how little you know. But I do like your looks.
If we all managed to maintain this level of a scholastic view into life & us, it would preclude the use of contraception .. Somehow maybe semen might escape from ones thick woolen pj's, yet I fear whatever was conceived would be a far cry from any degree of knowing passion. Both dogs seemed recklessly searching for some sign of excitement ahead.. I expected eventually they'd arrive to a farmers driveway sign reading- 'don't overthink your concept of beauty'🐦
That would require loads of idiots to stop breeding the Idiocracy, and good luck with that. The people who need contraception the most rarely use it.
I think rainbow unicorns are perfectly nice, but should be made with hemp derived plastic.
The first thing that seems to me is that neither of you have the first idea of what the vast majority of people's reality is. I would think on the eastern outpost of big estate CWD country that the doubling of the population since the early seventies has largely passed you by.
Immigration...
Mary: please, please, please visit Brigham Young University and speak at a Forum there.
If you look at it mathematically, the PERCENTAGE of humans who live in relative comfort and safety with longer lifespans is vastly higher now than it was in centuries and millenia past. There are over 8 billion of us now. Long ago when the population was a fraction of that, nearly everyone who wasn't royalty or in some way elite barely eeked out a living or lived in abject poverty, and died young. I do qualify that as at least one valid metric of progress despite some of the legitimate arguments made here about tradeoffs.
for example, they say the native americans were large atttractive intellegent healthy people, and nowdays average person is sick and selfish. compared to them. question where you get your claims from. think of what natural genetic selection made us to adapt to... we are healthier that way. for example, junkfood is made to appeal to human taste, and human taste was made to pick out what is good for humans in natural environment.... thats why kids, dogs, cats etc prefer naturally developed animal food and natural flowing water of magesium etc . think sleeping accoirnd go tthe solar circadian rhythm, physical intense and complex movement, and physical work at the the pace of not being able to speak clearly from large breathe intake/outtake.
@@ouch9326 Jolly Heretic Dutton makes the point that industrialization means the sick, stupid, and weak get to grow up, and reproduce sicker, stupider, and weaker people.

"Two words long and not very polite."
Progress at just about any cost is still progress. I disagree with some of the underlying premise.
Progressing towards...? (Hell by the sounds of it)
Mary Harrington: intp’s so you don’t have to!
When we have people shouting reproductive rights they seem to be silent on the much broader concept beyond abortion.
We currently have lawsuits going on over property rights to viable, frozen humans.. We, as she points out, have not yet fully ironed out the ownership and sovereignty rights involved in surrogacy. Yet, as stated in the video we seem to be moving toward the commodification of human persons and collectivisation of individuals.
Moreover, it seems like a great many who will be negatively impacted in the long run are among the most vocal advocates for the short term economic lift.
Sounds like "Line go up next fiscal quarter" business thinking. The people in charge will do whatever to inflate their golden parachute now. The system will collapse, and the burden will be dumped on the commoner.
She comes off as an extreme vegan. Is her critique of the idea of progress born out of a liberal frustration that progress hasn't occurred in the degree and form that she desires?
Progress doesn't mean progression. But humans have had almost unlimited progression - with often limited progress.
27:17, "To which the response is two words long and not very polite."
I have a writer crush on Mary Harrington
Mary can eat! Most woman would be so worried about looking like a pig that they would just peck at their plate. I love her!

Sad sad sad Mary Harrington such dark eyes you see the world through dark gray sadness you're so safe that you have to find problems with her luxurious life. The future requires that you place your faith in it otherwise what's the point of being alive. " I can improve myself" that's the first step to Faith in the future create a better future Mary. Have faith that you can do it. Faith is not a gift to something you create you don't have faith in yourself how can you wake up in the morning or you gonna become a drunk drug addict you're preaching drug addiction here.

If it is not controversial then it is not a conspiracy theory?
I’ve moved beyond middle age. I don’t know very many people in my generation, siblings, friends, myself, current partner, who haven’t had failed marriages and some even failed second marriages. And these failed relationships have impacted children. I don’t think the marriages of previous generations were any happier, they just were trapped in their misery by social convention.
Children need the security of healthy adult relationships to underpin their development. But the answer isn’t marriage. The answer is coherent and secure communities. The nuclear family is not protected by conservation of traditional values in a re-vamping of fusty old Victorian values, as if they ever brought us social stability and healthy lives for anyone. The solution lies in going much more radically back into what grass roots communities have always achieved by being faithful to the needs of children and adults alike in a more communal way.
I think it’s within these kinds of radically committed communities that the kinds of social pressures could operate that would allow for a more healthy relationship between the sexes. There’s a lot of thinking to be done to integrate social ethics with radically different ways of being a physical community
Indeed. The system often counts happily married and still married but fighting everyday to be the same.
Go ahead. Build your communes and enjoy the inevitably weird, unconventional relationships. Don't force other to join.

China has similar problems, but in each culture some of the variables are unique to that culture. Females moving to bigger cities and males at farms, both shopping in other countries if they can. Similar to passport bros in America, and UK has similar. China has a few compounding factors going on.
As far as transhumanism. 40% of men throughout history never had kids. 60%+ of young males not even dating today. Bioengineering and artificial wombs will help part of that for them. A.I. companions and robotics another part. Males might be the first/faster adapter to the tech due to statistics and things will start to change as females adapt also. The irony though is the sexual devide will grow. With luck A.I. might be able to help match people in interests and such. Genetic engineering helping to create desired qualities. Though a lot of the technology will only be available to the rich and upper classes. And the disaffected lower class or throw away population will still be stuck at the bottom. Upward mobility has shrunk.
As far as population decline and replacement. Hypergomy is not 100%. It looks like infertility rates may bottom out around 20% from what I am guessing looking at statistics. But to that and what is being selected for looks like 2 main types to me. Population will not totally crash unless a E.L.E. happens. But I think humanity may be seeing a bottle neck ( gene pool )event soon. Again just my guess. Multiple countries have population and birth rate problems. The silent crisises going on with parts compounding.
As far as social media and social imprinting with toys. Females or more specific female products out spend males 10 to 1. So the change in female toys due to female likes is driven by female statistics. Social media rotting brains and forming narcissist and such. Feeding ego silos and creating or strengthening biases. Dopamine and ego traps. Manipulation and delusions Feeding naritaves. It doesn't look good what social media and things like hookup culture have done to people.

"We grew richer by plundered and enslaved peoples"? Yeah no, Im pretty sure taking some wooden artefacts from some tribes did not lead to the development of our economies and technologies.
Does it make you squeamish that an animal panted in fear and then was murdered for your burger patty? Is it impossible to hear that wealthy nations have made great fortunes from exploiting poorer nations? What are you afraid of?
@@joythought Those countries should get their shit together and stop blaming the west for "wronging" them, but since their leaders are corrupt and dont care about their people its not going to happen, as for animals, we should treat them good if we can, dont know why youre bringing that up tho
@@joythoughtExtremist veganism is almost as terrifying as religious zealots.
You’re right it is all about perception. For example if a rich country didn’t have a self interest in one it arrives at, or as you call it colonialism, they may not have a kick start like say Australia received 200 years ago. Which would mean a slower longer growth. Sort of like some African countries of which the west has no interest. Now which is more important do you think. Bring a country out of the dark ages, lifting poverty like in say China and investments there, or colonialism and all the felt draconianism. Now to take a different perspective, we have to live many lives and live in many series of circumstance. Being a word smith and carving out righteousness without living within Is simply opinion without lived facts. Thankfully the Universe provided reincarnation for this
I call the acts of China another case of "It's only bad then X when someone else does it."
13:30 its simple. Nurturing is not the key to successfully raising kids. Actually all the data shows the structure and and discipline are.
Actually, nurturing is key to raising entitled sociopaths, which is what weve got now. To quote Mr Durden, "we are the generation of men raised by women, I'm beginning to wonder if another woman is really what we need."
What data exactly shows what? Nurturing means literally to raise kids in proximity. Are you suggesting kids raised by the state in Institutions turn out better citizens than in a family?
@@andredemony no. I'm suggesting that coddling and emphasizing "self esteem" or being the cool mom who's friends with her kids has crippled several generations. The data on that is nearly endless if you can't find it I can't help you lol
@@jeffdelgren2170 Ok, troll. Not only you are off-topic you also can't provide basic evidence for your claims, Move along.

Looks like a nice place to eat and drink. Anyone know the location?
None of this matters.
The way I see it, birth control is often revealing how many children genuinely were wanted. I have to wonder how many children only exist out of some sort of social pressure, or by some holy order.
I often joke about how birth control bans will lead to communist Romania's unwanted kids.
I often think about what would happen if guys had a cheap, safe, legal, effective, and reversible anti-horny device. That would really change sexual ecology big time.
50:26 This is why non hormonal IUDs exist. Sex without babymaking. Birth control without chemicals in the water that turn the freakin' frogs gay.
Non-hormonal IUDs come with their own negative side effects and risks, which is why they're not a particularly popular form of birth control. Most women and girls also don't like strangers performing invasive procedures to their genitalia.
What on earth woud be the incentive for taking an "anti-horny device"?
Apart from for those whose sexual tastes bring them in conflict with the law?
@@nickbarber2080 There are plenty of guys who only work hard to afford to have sex. They would work less hard by getting rid of that desire. Those guys would then only work hard enough to be clothed, fed, and housed. That would suck for the corporation owners that need producers and consumers, and suck for the politicians that need to tax the production and consumption.
@@skylinefever Are you serious?
Are you a man?
Most men love what their sex-drive gives them.
Ask as many men as you like...see how many would do as you suggest.
Sticking it to The Man and getting sex are two entirely unrelated activities for the vast majority of men.

At the cost plundered enslaved people is why Europeans are so rich? But these plundered folks lived in squalor and practiced slavery before they ever met Europeans
