In this episode Daniel answers the question, "Why should people care about global existential issues?". He cites 2 experiments, the "Milgram experiment" (1961) and the "Asch conformity experiments" to serve as examples of how good people can be complicit with evil acts.

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." Frank Herbert
Agreed. I used to fear the death of my granny. It used to wake me shaking uncontrollably in the middle of the night. I resented that fear had such control over me. At that point I decided fear was NOT my master. My employees used to comment that I always appeared to have no fear, I told them "I have fear, I simply will not let it control me, take a deep breath, cause we are going in". Your statement could not have been better worded.

The sad thing is, most people think they're revolutionaries, when they're just as conformist as everyone else.
Try asking someone would they rather be poor but remembered for generations, or rich and forgotten about in ten years, and most would still choose the latter.
Conformity leads to a lack of conflict. A lack of conflict leads to an easy life. So most people conform cause it's the easiest thing to do, even though it can sometimes be the most detrimental.
@@MarvinPowell1so true, don’t rock the boat or you mightn’t like the wave it creates for those in it! It’s really only a solution to more of the same thing, when people colour outside the lines only then can we see what can really take place & what can be created, is sometimes better than what was!

Check what Jesuit made in the dark ages then they were called “holly inquisition”, check out how the same one after the Patel power fail and whah or who caused it the3 collapse, how the same make hole Europe to forbid the Jesuit order. Check out what game they are playing and how everyone could be a Jesuit and spy on everyone and everything, how they make the communist manifesto and how they are the most prominent scientist in the world, how there general “the back pope” is commanding the world from his office. Soon their plan will see the fulfillment and I guarantee you no one will like it, even the richest man of the world will be forced to do what is told to do.
Lol wtf even is based anymore
A lot of people are sadistic. They have repressed rage and feel unburdened when they get to act out those emotions by harming others.
This is deep!
Violence is the voice of the unheard.

Lots of people, with the advantage of wider perspective and absent some duress, will make a good choice. However, as soon as that choice becomes difficult, 7 of 10 will go along to get along, just to stay in their comfortable doom.

I also think it's interesting to note that the authority figure in the experiment was a scientist.
In other studies using Milgram's tenets, if the authority figure was referred to as a scientist, the % of compliance increased.
We just witnessed billions of people on this planet being inoculated against a virus with EXPERIMENTAL potions...and then they admitted some of these potions were flawed.
More akin to lab rats/mice than anything resembling a person.
Agreed, science is not another god to blindly follow.
Trust the science or you will get the hose again! 🤣
I made a good comment but as usual, was ignored by those who worship authority figures. At least I have not been censored yet. 😊
Read all the "compliant" flattery comments on this video. 😊
@@tootricky99 I am pretty sure you misunderstand science. Because core of science is to not trust it. You have to proof, and even after that things are open to correction.
Or in other words: Science is the way to err upwards instead of blindly going in one direction like with faith.
Not going to lie, I have learned this in Ethics class in my freshman in college. I realized how conformity is diminishing our autonomy! To that, I'd say we fight it!
Shoutout to THAT professor.
This was a long time ago, right? Ethics classes have given way to gender studies and such now, yes?
This is why the Left tries so hard to assign people to groups so that they lose their individual voice
@@upcycle.outdoorsman9629 I have to agree with you! Communities have shifted our thinking.
@@AcapachVideo I've heard people go as far as to say that ethics is a 'white privilege' ideology. Full on nihilist tribalism.
My personal advice is conquer all your bad habits/addictions. You'll have a lot more money and a lot more autonomy. Gratitude/prayer helps foster a sense of being thankful for the things you have as opposed to upset over the things you don't have. Ignore politics, it's beaurocratic garbage designed to distract you and make you afraid. Focus on exercise/healthy diet/structure/leading by example and changing the world that way. Go to bed and wake up everyday at the same time. Prioritize making your bed/keeping a clean living space. Throw out your old junk (don't horde garbage). Keep things organized. Love yourself.
Amen :)
Amen!
Be the change you wish to see.
So You’re only doing it for yourself? By ignoring politics you also meant ignoring the injustices happening the climate change because those are all political? Which is the message of this video?
@whitepouch0904 What are you doing to thwart political injustices in your daily life?
@@whitepouch0904if you can feed yourself, you can feed a neighbor in need (cut portion in half, for example). giving money or power to a corrupt body for their brand of good cause will likely legitimize and empower their authority and misuse of power

Not just another kind of evil ~ the worst kind.

This channel is one of the utmost principal examples of a treasure trove of information
Schools (Parents really) need to teach this information
No way. We're there for indoctrination only !
It is why he named it what he did.
This would destroy the purpose of school.
The power of words changes the way we act.
Please consider this.
Whenever you see words implying someone else (schools), change it to I. Apply the same process to Should. Should implies future action...maybe.
Change Should to Shall.
Example:
I shall teach your information.
Schools will never teach you how to think for yourself
It sounds very simple because it is. All it takes is doing the right thing, right now. Regardless of what everybody else is doing, and then the magic happens, and everybody finds everyone else doing the right thing right now too. Thank you very much for your beautiful work.
I wish it were so simple.
Kudos for keeping your guiding light, though.
Our social model is based on master and apprentice, and the apprentice will never be allowed to outshine.
I know modern society isn't quite so simple, but the adage holds true.
Some will cut you down while your back is turned, others will ostracize you for being different.
Most are cowards that will always follow the one they fear the most.
Burn your faith in humanity, but save the hope for.
The problem with complying with evil people is not about the chances of what happens if you fight against them. It is the certainty of what will happen to you when they notice you do not side with them any longer once they're established enough.
that's why you have to play their game to win. There is something like that in a book called "The Prince". He pretend he's part of these evil people so he can get a top position, then slowly change the structure from there.
@@nayeon_twiceimnida1654My FIL has difficulty understanding this concept.
With regard to a fair percentage of illegal immigrants funneling up from Central America, why they flee their homelands instead of fighting back against the gangland government system.
Decent people will always be incapable of superceeding the violent tactics of those that would assume power, even if armed and capable.
Thwarting evil by their own tactics ultimately makes you the same as that you wish to destroy.
Therefore, the decent folk do the unimaginable, they leave.
BTW, we absolutely need a secure border. Yet I shit you not, I'd have an express lane for any willing to cross a thousand miles with naught but a back pack and a pair of sneakers.
@@matthair8324 i didn't understand what you're talking about because I'm not American.
But I understand the part where you say doing what I comment above will make that person the same as them.
Idealisticly we want to change things without having to do that, but in reality that's something really hard to do, even if getting killed wasn't a threat.
I think people shouldn't be judged by their action alone, sometime people do bad things even though their intention are well. Would you say a father that has killed someone to defend his daughter a bad person?
If there is no other choice to change the structure from the outside and the only way is to change it from within, then I don't think he should be considered a bad person.
@@nayeon_twiceimnida1654
I never meant to depreciate your logic!
You're not wrong by any regard, getting people of integrity into positions of power is absolutely the ideal.
Be happy you're not in America. I will try to caption the difficulty our peasants see, from the bottom out.
Our political system has broken down to what is, essentially, a popularity contest. This being backed by wealth from corporate investors that promise campaign donations for the ability to bypass environmental laws that guarantee the safety of taxpayers. The end result, is that the industry suffers no capital loss, as political donations can be written off as non-profit loss. However, the cost of remediation or loss of property value is simply left to the taxpayers. Ironically, the ones whom pay for the service of the agency responsible for controlling damages incurred by unscrupulous companies.
We've already had an uprising. It was almost non-violent. It ended with aggression and detention of protesters by law enforcement (whom were just doing their job) and each one defamed, convicted and incarcerated for maximum penalty.
So here we are, history is written by the victorious. The red flag waves just under the large white. This country is headed for reform by violent means, and that's not good for anyone. Even at this moment, they continue to wag the dog.
As George Carlin, an American comedian stated, " it's a club, and you're not invited."
Meanwhile, legislators profit from collusion in the stock market with those very same corporate listings to which they vote legislation to/against. All while maintaining plausible deniability by third party proxies.
Do I judge a man by action alone?
No, sir (or mam).
I judge a person on the trivial. Whether an individual says excuse me while passing, or holding the door for another. Please and thank you.
Those are acknowledgment of common ground, irrespective of intent.
I love what the founding fathers stated at the inception and declaration of my countrys ' existence meant.
I am one of those refugees, inside my own country. Already bought the land, far enough from society that this hopefully never impacts the remaining years of my life.
" Give me your tired, your poor. Your huddled masses."
I end this to state: I envy those of a simple life. They do so much with so little, it should shame modern American infrastructure. The pure beauty of coexistence in absolute terms appeals to me in a way that most never comprehend.
When I die, I want for only a tree as my plot. Feast on my bones while shading those that need. And wither itself without a mark on this earth, but for the life that springs from that abundance.
In the grandstand, I wish for mediocrity and ambivalence among man. It won't be had. The tide is coming in.
WWIII is here. These little skirmishes only predict that eventuality.
Political leaders will sway the masses just as Pearl Harbor or 9/11 before. Iraq.
I am happy for you, wherever you are. I hope the U.S. operations skirt your world. Or that you find yourself elsewhere, before the bombs find you.
I have to leave this, at now.
I hope you understand the soliloquy.

Prepare to walk alone when non-conforming. If you’re following what your gut is telling you, and you’ve armed yourself with objective information, you’re on the right path. During lockdowns I stayed true to my gut and was armed with information. Didn’t take it, didn’t get, don’t regret it.

Would love to see the animated version of the part where he says:
"Being engaged in activism of different kinds I got to see a factory farm very young.
I grew up eating meat without thinking about where it came from while also having dogs, cats and guinea pigs.
I loved animals and when I saw the condition of the animals in the factory farm, it was an animal Auschwitz, it was mind blowing unnecessary continuous suffering.
I stopped eating meat that day and I started studying everything that I could about factory farming and animal rights.
I was nine and that put me into my first deep suicidal phase because if someone was doing that to my dog, if my dog was in that kind of tortured position, I would
do anything to stop it, and these were billions of animals that were as sentient as my dog and I didn't know how to stop it but I couldn't know that it was happening and just ignore it and focus on other things and feel okay.
I was like: 'I can stop thinking about them but they can't get out of being there, they have no way to get themselves out and maybe since I'm not in there I can get them out.'
It could have been just as easy that I was born into that situation with my consciousness or born as a child soldier but fortunately I was born into
this situation and that is a blessing that I can take no credit for, but there's an obligation that comes with it, and the obligation is maybe I can do something.
I realized that I couldn't kill myself because that didn't get any of the animals out, that didn't save them.
So how do I live and just be normal to people in conversations and talk about normal stuff and be focused on whatever my own personal self-centered stuff is while knowing that an infinity of torture
is happening and be okay with it?
I would have to dissociate completely and that makes me a sociopath in a way, and so I felt like there was no way that I could just have a successful life that didn't require being a sociopath but I couldn't kill myself and so the only answer was that I have to end factory farms and so that got me engaged in activism.
And then that showed me the overfishing of the oceans, the destruction of the coral reefs, the deforestation and the destruction of all these things and so it just kept expanding.
The benefit of that is, when you really see the suffering in the world deeply enough and you take it in deeply enough that it can never not be with you, it's a antidote to the narcissism that is otherwise ubiquitously conditioned in everybody, to just be focused on me, my desires, my goals, my problems, what do I need, how am I advancing myself, my progress etc. which is just such a horrible prison of a way to be.

Huge admirer of Daniel Schmachtenberger's work. Thank you for this
Whenever I hear about the Milligram experiment, I imagine a meta-experiment in which the scientists are the actual subjects. At what point did they realize that they were causing severe psychological harm to the people they believed were the subjects, even driving them to suicide? And yet they continued to pursue the experiment. "For science."
I watched the entire podcast mentioned and was literally glued to every word for the whole 3.5 hours. Highly recommended.
Thank you so much for this highlighted section of the full podcast. I have been watching Daniel speak on many podcasts for the past year or so and yours is by far the most extensive and from which I have learned the most or perhaps consolidated my learning the most. I am an older person (67) and to hear put into words what I have felt and lived for decades goes such a long way in comforting me and giving me some direction.

Justification is the root of all evil.
Your sinful flesh is the root of all evil. Turn to Jesus Christ to be saved.
@chad9455 oh, no thanks, babe. 🫶🏽
this needs more upvotes
What is that logic. Justifying an action happens, AFTER an action where evil already happens, either in reality or in someone's mind. It's not the root, but rather a natural process to cope with the aftermath of doing evil things.
@frankxu4795 If you don't understand nuance then I can't help you. Google is a good start though
I studied psychology, and I remember learning about the Milgram et al. study on obedience. The Ash study, too. The Prison study is also horrifying.
I was genuinely horrified, but the worst thing was not knowing how I'd react. I wanted to think that I'd say no, and I'd demand an end to the experiment. But I couldn't be sure.
Then Covid happened. I'm now sure that I'm not a conformist. If I'd lived in Nazi Germany, then I'd probably have been murdered at the same time as The White Rose*.

Saying no to a shot is very very different to being shot!
😂😂😂 those experiments prove nothing. They weren't anything resembling the scientific methodology to make those assertions. And the Prof that made the Stanford Prison Experiment is a known sociopath. He secretly ordered the guards to oppress the prisoners and he encouraged the prisoners to rebel. He was a sadist. Don't believe ANYTHING you hear from "soft sciences." Every hypothesis psych/sociology have come up with are disproven (proved experimentor bias usually) within 30 years. They're crazy themselves. Sorry

Most "good people" are rules-followers. "Bad people" (and they aren't all criminals, just people who don't follow the mores) are much more likely to think for themselves.
We're all somewhere between saint and shithead. No such thing as "good" or "bad" people.
The founding fathers were terrorist insurrectionists.
I like how all the differing ideologies are quiveling about what is allowed taught to their children.
Indoctrination occurs over time, and most never see the bigger hamster wheel.

I know many say negative things about Jehovahs Witnesses, but when I read experiences of JW standing up against the Nazi regime (and promptly being sent to the Concentration Camps or put in front of Firing squads) my respect grew. At the time Teachers and leaders in the community were encouraging everyone to just submit to the Nazi regime, the JW looked crazy for not bowing. But now when we look back, many JW died in the Concentration Camps, many survived, I think of their courage. But for those that submitted to the Nazi regime, when we learn of the Cruel horrifying acts committed and you are now complicit. It's sobering.

Compliant people oppose fission power because some cultural icon (Maybe Jane Fonda 50 years ago?) told them that they should hate it. People are very willing to hate. They feel virtuous because they hate what someone told them to hate. Meanwhile they are opposing abundant energy for 8 billion people on the planet. So sad. So ironic. Civilizations have ended over matters smaller than this. I remain hopeful that we will embrace electrification and solar and wind and batteries and conservation and fission. I remain hopeful. Every day I do what is within my reach toward human progress. So much possibility. 🙏

Here in Seattle we had Jabartheid. Before the WH started their threats, people here were frantically exploring ways to attack the unjabbed. They kicked everyone out of any organization they could, employers rolled out mandates in their own. Landlords were even attempting to make injection necessary to sign a lease! I work with the public, and for a time, I could count on hearing dozens of people hissing and gleefully bashing anyone who remained uninjected. They wanted ever more controls and punishments. They took to a two tiered society with relish and almost puerile excitement. I am 100% certain that they'd trip over themselves forcing the uninjected into concentration camps if they were given the green light. It was insane, and I'll never see my neighbors the same again.

Absolutely brilliant summary of the situation. If every human could witness this video and understand it with total attention, we might have a shot at mitigating the ongoing collapse.
In June of 1977 I saw the first Star Wars film at a multiplex theater. Above each ticket windows was the names of a movie being shown. Above all of the windows was a large text "Tickets for all movies are available at all windows." The line to the Star Wars window reached into the distance. No line at all at the other ticket windows. I bought my Star Wars tickets at another window and went inside.
How much did the movie blow your mind back then??

Hello Mark. It is finally great to see the face behind a channel that I have loved forever.
The concise, artistic and truthful basis of your messages are such that they truly convey messages of facts and processes that were in front of our noses all along but which we were unable to see. Of course, once something is pointed out to us, then we slap our forehead and say "of course, of course".
Yet, a metaphorical infinity of issues and events come across our eyes and ears every hour, every minute (see the cell-phone generation of near-zombies that we are!) and, though we think of ourselves intelligent and smart, we find it extremely difficult to extricate ourselves from the NARRATIVES that have been predisposed for us.
What I am saying is that despite my being aware of what you (and DANIEL) just elucidated for us, i bet I will be the first one to STILL fall pray to the intents of that NARRATIVE.
Go figure! So the question remains: Is there a way out for us out of this tragedy short a full collapse of our Society with the hope that our survivors may try again and this time do it more successfully?
Mark, thank you so very much for your work and for your dedication to your channel.
(I haven't yet heard anyone swear on after skool) fantastic channel and always inspiring and philosophical and so engaging. Life changing and eye opening ideas in each video.
More Daniel animations please. He's a very clear thinker and explainer and focuses on impirtant difficult stuff. Drawings will help spread more of his ideas. Thanks, be well :)
Thank you 🙏

I think a lot of what is playing out right now in the fields of mental health research will change things considerably for the human race, since it is with our minds that we make our world, all we need to do is to remove authority, increase autonomy and expand our minds 😁

I didn't sell out..I bought in
Explain?
... you're a suspected pureblood.
Congrats.
Language to justify selling out @@Alex-bs5sd
No matter what, someone has a problem with you simply being alive.
one & the same
The thought came into my mind; That there are some people, who will watch this edifying video and absolutely hate it.
Woah bro… was this like a huge revelation for you? Life shattering even?
@@Drroccy97 nah bro I'm just sharing my comment like you and everyone else. The sunshines for everyone. Even catty little men like you. I know I don't know you but I'm certain that you need to go out and get some sun.
People will watch literally any video and absolutely hate it. It's impossible to get 100% approval on anything you make. If you even just make funny cat videos, you get hated by people who don't like cats. Such is life.
@@Drroccy97 No I'll just sharing my comment like you and everybody else. The sun shines for everybody even for catty little men like you.
@@cheese-bg1xq I understand that bro I just don't see why people will hate things that lift other people up.
Awesome work
That was awesome. Thank you. I want to be part of changing the world for the better.
A great vid. Thanks.
School correction...people comply WITH evil...not comply TO evil.
Thank you for catching that. The title has been changed now.
Great work as usual Mark / Afterskool! 🙌🏾🙏🏾
It’s been years since I’ve seen Daniel. Good to see he’s still on his game.
Hello Mark!!! Very nice face (gorgeaous😂😂) behind such an amazing initiative! I am from Brazil and your work is just fenomenal!
You are an important pillar of my mental health nowadays, in this super crazy world…😂😂😂
THANK YOU FOR creating this GREAT CHANNEL!
If i were writing a dystopian account of the last four years, my protagonist would be named Millgram Asch
excellent video as always, really enjoyed this one and thanks for introducing me to Daniel
AMAZING, thanks!!
covid proved this, just look at the way ordinary people treated the unvaccinated
"I don't have the power to change things unless there are others already doing it" is a post-hoc rationalization of simply not being brave.
We don’t have to change any thing, we just have to be willing to commit to our values at all costs.
@@decreasethyself1212 yes but not everyone will be able to do that. For example , a new set of generation. Those babies won't know a thing about good or bad and would just take in all that bad information and then those will be their 'values'. To not let that happen we must change this ourselves before its ill effects kill us too. " Committing an offense , ofcourse counts as a sin just like supporting it. But not taking action even after you know what is correct is even a larger sin." - Shri Krishna
@@bindusharma826 agreed!!! It’s not “not knowing” it’s “not wanting to know.”
Absolutely, great video !!! Herd behaviour is the biggest human weakness. Human being is a social creature and there is a strong need to adapt, not being able to adapt leads to suffering. Like everything, this must have negative aspects, herd mentality, sheeps, it's better to adapt even if we're wrong, we can all be wrong together, being a black sheep is much worse.
So clear and amazing. I saw the original talk and doublethink the animation makes it clear to everyone
I don't blame the people who fight wars and all that, I more curious of the leaders who imposed that decision.
Like the Israel, the people aren't usually at fault. They are unwilling and or unaware subject of a few service to self psychopaths in leadership.
SHEEPLE mindset kills.

@@alexandercantdie. In 2020 our society did an impromptu study of what the ratio of critical thinking skeptics to sheeple is: 3 to 7.

The whole Culture War is basically blue sheep versus red sheep (although blue started it.) The end result is the same - more corporate and government control over your life - regardless which "side" wins. The game is rigged from the start, and the only winning move is to not play.
The same instinct can also create prosocial behavior in the right environment. We live surrounded by strangers and see our close family and friends far too rarely, this means we follow the wrong messages. Messages that are not intended for our betterment but to those of less giving people. Being a human is hard. : /
@@upcycle.outdoorsman9629Fair point but never forget the extreme pressure put on some. My office went remote and I had it kind of easy, only had vague threats of mandate at my job. Expect a backlash from those extorted when their regret settles in.
Ah this is amazing. Yet again your content is soo good! Thank you brother
This was absolutely awesome!!!
Thanks for sharing!
This is why we need a global anarchist movement. Rules but no rulers.
Nobody deserves power over anyone else.
Pipe dream
@badmen1550
So is every other style of government in which the masses think they’ll have freedom under some authority figure. Monarchy to democracy to communism; people in power acquire more power by taking the rights of the people.
Did you ever read Lord of the Flies? People need to be responsible civically with governance not “rulers” in order for a society to thrive positively and not regress back to the days of the barbarians. Some spiritual guidance in love doesn’t hurt either to know how to treat one another with respect and kindness.
The children went to war just like their parents. It wasn’t an argument for governance but an allegory of how our children follow in our footsteps. That’s why the first part of the story was all about explaining the war that was ravaging their country at that time.
If everyone was jumping off a bridge, would you?
I would not.
Depends if someone has a knife at your back.
@suzettechristine8609
You probably would, for the right price.
The more accurate question is: If no one was jumping off a bridge, would you?
@@MarvinPowell1
Some would for money. I dont need money like that. I make my own. Therefore, I would not. And, I would fight anyone trying to push me. I was never a follower either. I've jumped off a plane. And if the bridge wasn't too high and dry at the bottom, I may. On my own terms🤣
If everyone was paying compounding interest, addicted to their phones, complicit in a doomed extractive capitalist system debasing the substrate which we require to survive would you?
You’re doing great things , friend. Blessings to you and yours
Your talents are off the chart. Thanks for all your hard work! 😂
This should be good, we've all seen it.
Dear Mr after skool, I am a huge fan of yours. I am also afflicted with art as life. You have done something here that combines such interesting elements, wow. Cool stuff! Dolcé vita. Imua!
Wonderful, and the animation too❤

"Nearly 75% of the participants in the conformity experiments went along with the rest of the group at least one time."
Be the 25% until it reaches 100.
You can do this. You are more powerful than you know.
So the 80/20 rule applies here also it appears? Good news then! Evolutionary biologist say in most systems (small Petri dishes or large swaths of Amazon forest), it only takes around 15% of a pressure group in the environment to enact significant change. 15% new tree species, insect, gene mutation, people with a common belief - all it takes is 10-20% united pressure on the system and it will change.
Brilliant content❤
What a great presentation on such a complicated subject.
Now that's a beard!
