For thousands or years the wealthy elite have used bigotry in all of it's various form to divide and oppress the people. Without bigotry it would be impossible for the very few to oppress the very many.
Also, the overly-simplified description of Fascism is Organized and or Weaponized Bigotry. P.S. Sorry for dividing my comment into three parts. This way not all of it gets deleted or hidden.
Even if Elmo were to earn right-wingers' hate, they would never seriously tell him to go back to South Africa and do...whatever they think he should be doing there instead. Different story if he was non-white.
Nor that by simply not living in South Africa suddenly makes Apartheid culture disappear on it's own. Becoming free of bigotry takes working on that specifically, not intentionally working on becoming even more bigoted. And it is intentional. That's the one thing I disagree with Saji about. Bigots know they're wrong. That's why bigots constantly seek to hide history and reality. Just listen to Elon hem and haw when Don asks questions about racism and etc.

@fullmetaltheorist oh you are so right with this. Unlike Ford, who occasionally stole inventions, Edison had the habit of inviting smart and talented people to work under him and let them experiment with the raw ideas they brought in. Most of Edisons "ideas" were actually not his own. I remember the story of Clash of Edisons DC and Teslas AC and how Edison tried to sabotage tesla several times. These stories sound way too familiar to today's Elon Musk, who himself, doesn't have that much of scientific degrees or outstanding knowledge, but he was born rich and had the investment money to start several companies which some turned out to be goldmines. His only trait is, that he has the skill of "hiring genius, talented" people, who indeed have helped Musk accelerate into his billionaire status of today.
watching that interview was legitimately terrifying. knowing that someone that completely insane has more capital than some countries sends the world's largest chill down my spine
Well, i think Musk is indeed real life Tony Stark, 'cause if Stark was real, he would absolutely turn out to be an inept shitty capitalist that fosters the myth of "coolness" and "intelligence" about himself, just like Musk.
Iron Man was created to troll the hippies, but the creators forgot that Marvel's writing team was full of hippies, which is why Tony Stark is often humiliated in the comics. Like the time Asgardian refugees settled in Oklahoma and Tony tried to tell Thor to his face that he had to submit to the US government.
Well he kinda is Tony Stark but his story is going in the opposite direction. Tony started as a selfish rich guy who fed the American military. But, he ended it as a guy who gave his life to save the universe. Elon was seen as who Tony Stark was at the end of his story arc. But in recent years he has been turning into Tony from the first MCU movie.
It's super important to educate on what fascism actually means. Sometimes I see people throwing around the word so lightly in discussions that have nothing to do with fascism at all. Plus, yeah, I've argued with more than one Usanian about fascism, and they seem to have a pretty... off or oversimplified concept, making it very pointless having a constructive discussion with them. I know these videos can be tough on your mental health, Saji, but I appreciate the time you take and the effort you put into sparking conversations and spreading awareness about these issues. P.S.: Seeing Pinochet in this video was a total jump scare... also my parents, who just happened to walk in, got midly mad at me because they absolutely hate him, so it was a triple jump scare.
Umberto Eco's Ur-Fascism is a great book defining fascism, George Jackson's blood in my eye also has a good analysis of fascism in America in particular
If like me you're a sensitive person and tired of all the channels that play on our emotions, check out _Beau of the Fifth Column._ He's both a compassionate person and very well researched. I haven't watched this video yet, but by the comments I can tell he's likely got a good take on things. So maybe Beau is also a good fit for this audience.

It's also important to understand what Communism is, because there are a lot people who have been persuaded to fear simply reading any of the sources. For one thing, no country has ever claimed to be Communist. And no country has ever been classless, moneyless, or stateless, let alone all three. Therefore, no country has ever been even one, let alone all three of the core principles of Communism. And who stands to lose from such horizontal power structures?
That's a bit incomplete, though. Communism is a stage of historical development that comes after socialism, and though you can make an argument that no country has achieved true socialism either (insofar as even the USSR and the PRC at their peak both had private firms operating within the framework of central planning) it's at least something that some states have claimed to be. Every socialist country-and I mean proper socialism here, not Bernie Sanders or European social democracy-is pretty much definitionally working towards communism.
Tbf you could also say this about capitalism, no country is purely communistic nor capitalistic, America obviously falls further to the capitalist side, but it’s not a full capitalist country. My main problem with capitalism is that it doesn’t take into account the workers who are apart of the company, it seems them more as slaves that might get paid a little speck of the money. The structure to most corporations is similar to a monarchy, where the people above you have pretty much full control and you have no say in the matter. If say, the workers were able to have some same, such as a more democratic system, than I feel as tho that would relieve a lot of problems with the way capitalism has been implemented in America.
No country has been communist as Marx described it but countries have adopted communist principles and modified his philosophy. The political party of China right now is literally called the Chinese Communist Party who base their philosophy off Marxist-Leninism…
@@pugsly8087 I’m personally a believer in a combination of both socialism and capitalism, one that leans for so toward socialism. The problem with capitalism, at least the way it’s integrated in America, is that it allows corporations to basically have control over the populous, as well as put the blame on workers In order to preserve the higher ups. The modern corporate system is, essentially, a monarchial structure. I wouldn’t say I’m far communism, as I feel the system could be easily manipulated, I am for more socialist system when it comes to how corporations should function.

For one thing, no country has ever claimed to be Communist. And no country has ever been classless, moneyless, or stateless, let alone all three. Therefore, no country has ever been even one, let alone all three of the core principles of Communism. And who stands to lose from such horizontal power structures?
That's a bit incomplete, though. Communism is a stage of historical development that comes after socialism, and though you can make an argument that no country has achieved true socialism either (insofar as even the USSR and the PRC at their peak both had private firms operating within the framework of central planning) it's at least something that some states have claimed to be. Every socialist country-and I mean proper socialism here, not Bernie Sanders or European social democracy-is pretty much definitionally working towards communism.
Tbf you could also say this about capitalism, no country is purely communistic nor capitalistic, America obviously falls further to the capitalist side, but it’s not a full capitalist country.
My main problem with capitalism is that it doesn’t take into account the workers who are apart of the company, it seems them more as slaves that might get paid a little speck of the money.
The structure to most corporations is similar to a monarchy, where the people above you have pretty much full control and you have no say in the matter. If say, the workers were able to have some same, such as a more democratic system, than I feel as tho that would relieve a lot of problems with the way capitalism has been implemented in America.
@@evanrutledge-sz4yo workers having more say or even ownership is a core tenant of socialism
No country has been communist as Marx described it but countries have adopted communist principles and modified his philosophy. The political party of China right now is literally called the Chinese Communist Party who base their philosophy off Marxist-Leninism…
@@pugsly8087 I’m personally a believer in a combination of both socialism and capitalism, one that leans for so toward socialism.
The problem with capitalism, at least the way it’s integrated in America, is that it allows corporations to basically have control over the populous, as well as put the blame on workers In order to preserve the higher ups. The modern corporate system is, essentially, a monarchial structure.
I wouldn’t say I’m far communism, as I feel the system could be easily manipulated, I am for more socialist system when it comes to how corporations should function.
This aged like wine
If that "skibidi rizz" skit is how Gen Alpha will grow up and act like, you will *beg* for Gen Z humor to come back.
Awesome video - especially the ending, was super powerful and eloquent!
Kinda wish you told me his astrological sign bc i dont wanna look it up either 😡
he's a cancer
He's a Sagittarius, Saji said so
this aged incredibly
I remember being blissfully ignorant of everything Elon was doing and his biggest achievement was a car that's stupid expensive. And then I started learning about the alt right and fascism and what do ya know, now I'm sadly not blissfully ignorant of this clown
Saji Sharma out here doing the most to talk about and display the most pertinent topics of discussion in a digestible manner with great points... and also Elon Musk is in the video ig
I remember a few years ago wondering; wtf are all these rich celebs carping on about free speech? And then I saw one of Petersons lectures on how Hitler was apparently stricken with OCD and was just trying to "clean" europ. The lack of self awareness when it comes to Nazis not knowing why nobody likes them is always both funny and immediately tedious.
Yes.
Edit: That video you showed in the beginning actually damaged my mental health and I'm not even Indian 😭😭😭
This my first of your videos I’ve seen. I’m surprised by the quality and depth of your essay, especially as it’s delivered without the hubris and absolutism exhibited by far too many on this platform. Earned my sub; look forward to more.
Did not expect to see Raja Twins again today...i thought blocking their channel was the end of it 😭😭😭😭😭
8:06
wow. its almost like… that’s exactly what trump has perfected. appealing to the struggles of lower and middle class workers while simultaneously upholding the systems which keep those disparities alive.
also elon musk as a cabinet pick…. how we feeling 🙂
nazi salute at the inauguration on anyone's bingocard😂
oh UA-cam you probably didn't want this getting out 9 months ago... did you? haha
This was an amazing video and I’m looking forward to checking out your sources ❤️
Already seen this video once but UA-cam decided to recommend it to me again today for no particular reason I suppose.
Been following you for 2 years now and they are always worded so well, I love your videos!
he's being investigated in brazil for internet crime and you would not believe the things he's said in his "defense"
thank u saji
This video hits better now Elon has whipped out the heil. Saji can see da future
When you make a twitter account it automatically sends you alt right tweets and messages, and make you follow Elon or a bunch of alt right accounts
We are really in it now
Insightful work as always, homie.
LET’S GO SAJIIIII
i learned alot today,thank you saji :D
Elon is a cancer, I know this because we share a birthday unfortunately
with good must come evil
Damn I’m a cancer too, I’m cooked, why ain’t I rich
I am the Santa Cruz Joker and I have been in the crosshairs of stonetoss and the kind of people he associates with, and they are all horrible people who make up lies about other people to distract everyone from how terrible they actually are
what is the santa cruz joke r
yup…
The fact I feel like I’ve watched Saji go from looking like an older teen to a straight-up adult on this channel reminds me how old I am lol. Old enough that people who aren’t kids look like kids to me, and time now moves so fast that I blink and they’re no longer kids anymore.
the clip at the beginning was certainly something i saw with my eyes and heard with my ears. ☠️
He certainly wasn't raised right (he was raised alt-right)
You got a sub on your fro alone bro
he was literally born into wealth because of apartheid in South Africa
Elon is definitely far right at this point.
He thinks DEI is death.....considering his background as a trustfund baby in prime apartheid south africa, this was inevitable.
It's crazy to think back to when he first emerged in the public eye proceeded by a pr campaign (and his own claims) of musk being a genius, it almost seems insane now.
Dude was making cameos in Marvel movies ffs
god elon's soundbytes pissed me off so bad i had to repeatedly pause and pace for a minute 😂 good lord he's such a damn fool
He sounds incomprehensible to me, could barely understand his point.
This video is excellent. I'm really impressed by your channel, dude. ❤
im sleepy i will watch this video in the morning
