About Young Sheldon:
It’s 1989 and 9-year-old Sheldon Cooper has skipped four grades to start high school along with his less-intellectual older brother. As he struggles to be understood by his family, classmates and neighbors, his mother arms him with the best tool she can come up with: reminding bullies his dad is the football coach and his brother is on the team. His twin sister doesn’t share his exceptional mind, but she has a much clearer vision of what life has in store for the young genius.

I've never seen more genuine fear in a man's eyes before. George was horrified.
How is it genuine he’s literally an actor 😂
Man era qas set in the 80s I be terrified if that happend to me
I suppose if you ad lived in a very small town like Medford, everyone pretty much knows everyone else. George has to live within this community, and that's what horrified him.
When you realize this a legitimate fear people had during the Cold War and that this would have been totally realistic.
@samuelstephen8147 absolutely, propaganda and fear mongering was an all time high .
"Oh, dear God." I love the zoom in on George's face at the end! 😂
I agree!!!!
I mean to be fair, Sheldon is kinda right
@D Sullivan The fact that although communism isn't the best system, it does have some positives to it?
@@conoroshea2377 it doesn't, and if it does It's mostly negatives. Communism is just a theory that can never work.
@@Lawrence-mh8dx maybe communism never worked because everyone was at war with it, also it did work for a while, also look at today's society, china and Vietnam are using communism and it's working
Crazy how everyone is on board with Sheldon’s idea but you throw the word “communism” out and everyone is suddenly against it
Muricans for you.
It's quite simple communism is idealistic, if it worked it would be perfect so describing it of course you are for it but once you connect the word to the description you know that is has never and will never work.
@@SM-ys8lw humm
Socialism does work. Norway, Finland, Germany and many European countries are example..
@@tylerdurden6060 those are social democracies which are a capitalist model
@@vikspod yes but free health care, education, old age welfare, etc are part of Socialism. Not something seen in usa
Notice how Meemaw got cut immediately after Sheldon's mistake of agreeing to communism in TX.
Probably because if Meemaw got to talk and explain to Sheldon that communism is bad and companies have the right to change their products they couldn't have sold it as "tHeM DaDgUm CoOpErS aRe CoMmUnIsTs!" and couldn't have played to the outrage culture of people looking to be pissed off or easily offended...when a 10 year old boy's opinion means shit in reality anyways! Even if he is a boy genius! He's still too young to understand how the world works even if he does balance the family checkbook.
Jews and democrats be like
@@footballyzvid2780*Conservatives actually. It's basically like Fox News. Stop projecting your insanity
@@basicsimp8798 Conservatives don’t do this. Democratic propagandists do. Stop projecting your insanity

"This is strange, I never think of you existing outside of school."
"Well, I do."
This exchange happened to me and many of my teachers, it was unfathomable to my eight year old self that they actually had lives outside of school! 😂🤣
yes, i've also experienced this strangeness of a teacher in a public place. i mean, i KNEW they didn't have cots and living quarters set up at the school, but this running into mr. heffernan at the k-mart certainly did feel odd.
Stupid
Samedt!!! It's a strange feeling to see them out and about.
lol
Lol why is it always at 8 years old? Better where there is food and snacks at least!
7-11 for me
Sheldon is calling for regulated capitalism. It was the reporter who planted the word communism, and he didn't know to push back.
Regulated capitalism is communism 😂
@@zlayer3170 It's not, by definition. Communism entails that the people own the means of production which in essence means money becomes meaningless as everything is a shared product.
THAT'S media nowadays
This!
@@Jacob-sl6ur Either the individual citizens own the means of production (capitalism, private property) or the state own the means of production (communism, public property). I love my private lawn, I supposed the planet is pretty big and we can both be happy in our respectives sides, or we can always go to war and whoever is left standing can have it all 🤑!!!
George like "Oh Dear GOD!" I was in the hospital with covid last year and saw this episode. Almost had to call nurse I was laughing soooo hard! BTW I'm from Texas.
The best episode of Season 2. Everyone was bashing the Cooper family; for example, everyone avoided Georgie for a show Sheldon was on that had nothing to do with Georgie.
@Christopher Bingham By "best" I mean most interesting.
@Christopher Bingham keep that salt to yourself hunny, you're raising everyone's blood pressure
Oh god Sheldon apologist is here again
@@syphon5899this was a good episode but this is def one of the worse young Sheldon
Everyone except Veronica, one of the few characters who had a little bit of sense in her.
He was actually right. But those media people played with the words and showed the wrong information. This is how people have been deceived all around the world.
@Christopher Bingham In no way was what he suggested communism buddy, he was just asking if companies should be allowed to run freely without regulation
@Christopher Bingham India is biggest democracy but they still have restriction on basic necessity items.
@Christopher Bingham Bro legit called America Communist,
Regulated market =\= Communism
Communism is a combination of regulation and giving production means to workers.
@Christopher Bingham Sheldon never denies he is Socialist but he never does anything to suggest it either
@Christopher Bingham Sheldon never suggests communism, the reporter if you noticed was trying to weave Sheldon into saying it. She knew that it would make everyone pissed and would help her profits a lot it seems she had the idea of “Commie” when she heard the call.
It's a miracle this family managed to keep their sanity despite Sheldon 😂
As to weather or not they managed to retain any sanity at all, is debatable. They certainly didn’t retain ALL of their sanity.
" hang on a sec- " 👁️👄👁️
I am suprise Meenaw was as calm before they saw the interview. Also George's reacting is PRICELESS
As funny as it is, im sure given the time and the fact that they lived in Texas this would probably be more accurate than most people would believe
So you're suggesting corporate communism?? "Well, yes I suppose I am!" 😂
Apparently "the people who eat the bread' = corporations. Smartest bootlicker moment.
Memaw trying to intervene just to get cut off lmao reporters are scum
this is still funniest episode of the entire show
Which one
It is 😂😂
A huge learning example on how they actually thought during that time in Texas! Lol!
the fact that everyone took a 10 year old's opinion on this seriously is ridiculous
it's america
It's a show
It's an American show
@@itsskall3326 perfect summary of our 2 comments
@@farzana6676 no dip
Peace. Land. Bread.
And Sheldon chooses bread 🗿
Poor Sheldon, he just suggested that the consumers should have some more control and say into what happened to the products, that reporter shoved the word communism in his throat and he being a child didn’t know any better
tf you mean didn't know any better he's sheldon
@@Andscool Yeah he's "Sheldon". He didn't know any better.
Hey, we both have Sonic for our profile pic. That’s cool.
No he says central planning
He literally said he wants a centralised government control. That's communism 🤣
I understand why George had a heart attack and died. That poor man.
If I had a son who was always causing shit over something just as simple as bread, I would’ve called a coffin shop in advance.
0:40 "and you're here buying FOOD...... FASCINATING 🤔🤔🤔" 😂😂😂😂
Meemaw singing all those songs in her front yard with that flag was the best part about this episode 😂😂😂😂
That news reporter gave Palki Sharma vibes😂😂
Hard to believe there was once a time where you could buy many things for a dollar each.
You still can or cheaper
too bad we have capitalism
Prices used to be reasonable, wages used to be reasonable, monopoly wasn’t a thing.
But then capitalism just ate itself with greed.
Older Cubans are moving back to Cuba because the houses are affordable and they don't want to pay the insane medical costs in the US.
that's like a minority of the immigrants coming into Florida. The truth is, majority of those that fled Cuba many years ago are actually conservatives.
That's the most laughable bullshit I've ever heard
lol......sure
Cuba? The hell hole? Ran by a government whose only out was the star power of Castro
Of course if you have dollars and you want to buy anything in an authoritarian communist destroyed country, you can get whatever you want.
Based Sheldon.
shut up band kid
3:43 George: ….Oh, dear God. 💀🤣
"How does my hair look?" I can't believe that SHELDON, the kid who very rarely wears anything other than slacks, a flannel shirt, and a bow tie, would ask that kind of question!
That was kind of the point/punchline 😉
Never speak “Red Talk” in a red state like Texas.
Unless it’s the Texas kind of red because the GOP uses the same damn color. Awkward.
That cut off was great XD
I love Meemaws acting
I mean the USDA and stuff should exist for exactly this reason, there should be some governing body that acts responsibly to prevent companies from just going in and adding cheap unknown ingredients to reduce price. Stuff like high fructose syrup and all that is probably way more harmful to our health but yet there really arent any cheap good options if you want to avoid it. Its legal here so companies will use it in everything.
This happened during the “Red Scare” epoch in American history when they were still engaged in a Cold War versus the USSR, and perceived anything communism as a threat to their “freedom”.
So literature and film students, what happens at the last of the scene, is a perfect example for 'Comedy of Menace'
I'm surprised George didn't have his heart attack right then.... RIP George Cooper.
Here is what I wonder.
How was Sheldon able to appear on television without Mary and George knowing about it ahead of time? He was a minor, so he should have needed his parents' permission.
The one possible loophole for this plot hole is the fact that Connie was there. Could she, as a grandparent, have given the greenlight for Sheldon to appear on television?
Meemaw
I think his grandmother being there was probably enough. Sheldon was accompanied by an adult, so that would have been good enough back then.
Thats the media for ya. She should be arrested
I am from France, and even though we are a capitalist society, we have certain elements of communism that we have deemed correct. These elements do not prevent us from living in a capitalist society. However, they prevent us from going to the American capitalist extreme, which, like any extreme, has its flaws. We have found a middle ground between both extreme
There are no flaws in communist extreme.
@user-cj8tz1tu8u there's never going to be a utopia. Doesn't mean we can't make things better.
@@user-cj8tz1tu8uflash backs f4om the USSR
😂😂this makes me cry of laughter everytime
Sheldon does have a point; the American government never asks for its citizens’ opinions, only during elections. They never ask how we feel about things like taxes.
As smart as Sheldon was, he didn't anticipate the extent of corporate greed of the news media.
Sheldon knows his politics too .
Funny how he’s supposed to be extremely smart but it’s never occurred to him that communism has faults and he’s never heard of any of the atrocities.
I mean not really if he answered like that in Texas.
Clearly not...
Well he wanted to say that a communist way at solving economic problems is better, but got missundestood, I mean of course he was, Americans hate anything communist related, it's stupid.
@@lololol246 Communism is the worst way to solve any economic problem.
Sheldon was light years ahead of all Americans.
i like how everyone went full red dawn on the coopers after that lmaoo
I can’t get over how brilliant the writers are for this show! All the actors deserve awards!! ❤
Well I'm still thinking... what exactly is wrong with making bread faster and cheaper? If he was worried about the bread getting worse, he should have talked about the lack of quality control...
Nothing wrong with that just that you don't change the original recipe that it defeat the true taste.
Might as well create a new version of bread with different packaging. If the cheaper bread sell well than the 'original',the company can reduced the original bread for 60% rather than changing the original recipe.
This is how news is doing tricks to guide people's opinions to a breaking news story
Here, Sheldon Cooper saying communism is what Texas needs.
George almost had a heart attack 😂😂😂😂
And under Communism the bread tastes better because passion rewarded equitably drives quality upwards.
But the good bread is only for the party members. Everyone else gets the low quality bread. This has happened in the soviet union before. Communism means government has all the power and in essence becomes the new ruling class.
Sheldon might be a GENIOUS, but it took him a while to realize the exit and entrance are 2 different doors. 😂😂😂
Genius* but 😂
Except they're not. People are just choosing not to exit where he's waiting for them.
Sheldon : "Excuse me, would you like to sign my petition ?"
Random Pedestrian : "No way you freaking Pinko"
My man, he suggests "communism" in late 80s Texas, the most american state of them all. What was boy thinking lmfao
Bro's strong in science and weak in humanities 😂😂
The real villain in that episode is the news reporter due to her knowing that Sheldon could be extremely naive since he is a kid after all
Yeah this episode aged so fucking well with the recent scandal involving that child in the Indian headdress.
Reporters are actual scum on this level.
My respect to Young Sheldon 📈📈📈
3:41 goddammit sheldon and images if howard and penny and Leonard saw sheldon on TV when they were little
Unlikely. Child Penny was in Nebraska, and Little Leonard was in New Jersey, and Howard in California. Since the internet was in its infancy during Young Sheldon, it is almost impossible for a young Penny, Howard, or Leonard to see a local news report out of Texas. 24 hour news access wasn't a thing back then, either. Still, it would be funny to think about them seeing it.
@@metro121482 yeah imagine if made headlines on another new station young boy in texas think communist is what needed in texas
Sheldon: UR BYING FOOD bro he is tryna live
Americans have never understood communism.
Amen to this, they will put Norway= form of socialist country in the same bag with North Korea
Worst ideology ,It is an ideology that cannot be implemented in a practical sense. The communist regimes can implement a dictatorial method rather than a democracy. Let me say it as a former communist in the South Indian state of Kerala, which is the first democratically elected place in the world.
Thank god they haven't!
"Centralized control of corporations" comes pretty close to "Public ownership of the means of production"
@@jaimemiranda5869 theyre not even referring to the same thing
Make your own bread.
If economics make it impossible for you to do that, there’s something wrong with America.
Everyone is having a panic attack over some kid who is upset about bread
It's not a bad idea, maybe communism isn't so bad
Nope
We have a bit of socialism already, and it's absolutely necessary to support our Hospitals and infrastructure. We would be in bad shape without it because people are not responsible enough to set aside money to cover these things.
As a man who grew up in small town west texas in the 80s i can relate to this episode lol.
Isn't it ironic that the token jerk among Sheldon's teachers in highschool is also the only one who even pretended to be interested in what Sheldon was doing?
Boy nearly started cold war 2
Hes right
He ain´t wrong. The proletariat would stop Disney from ruining movies.
«Hang on a sec» famous last words
I wonder what would have Tam thought of this?
A little communism wouldn't hurt the American health system 😂
Why didn't he just stand at the exit so they could sign it on their way out?
OK hear me out maybe Sheldon might be right
U mad
Wonder how that episode went
Funniest part is that what sheldon was proposing is more akin to fascism
If Sheldon got the reusable rockets right, why can’t he be right on this? Lol
Well what he was describing was a controlled economy which can be applied to many different systems (Communism, Facism, National Socialism, Corpratism etc) none however is capitalism due to the fundamental fact that capitalism is a product of the free market and is only possible due to a free market.
Because Sheldon is a scientific genius, but when it comes to the human spirit/nature he’s a complete idiot. The economy is emotionally fueled no matter how many people say otherwise.
@@benivinson3693 Pure Capitalism isn't good, neither is Pure Communism/Other. We don't live in a world of hard edges, everything is a combination. Even US Capitalism has added ingredients from Socialism.
@@benivinson3693 you must be delusional to believe an unregulated market will somehow “do the right thing” and not cut as much corners as possible to achieve maximum profit in detriment of quality/safety.
@@SovietBear4 who said unregulated market?
Comedy gold!
USA really hate communist…
That boy WE NEED HIM
I Love how this demonstrates how people don't physically understand the meaning behind communinism, all they think, "Communists? Russians? Spies?"
Me to the people: Why are you booing Sheldon? He’s right!
Based Sheldon
Yeah comrade!
3:45 oh dear god
it's amazing how much these writers want to change people's politics. sheldon is obvisously the smart prodigy and if he says communism is great it must be
I'm for capitalism, but corporate greed is a whole different animal and you try to bring more attention to an issue that a huge corporation is causing, they bust out the c-word
So if corporations arent capitalist, explain why they exist and are tolerated and even government sponsored in just about EVERY capitalist country????
@OcorydonYou can't implement anarchism in a developed country like the US.
@Ocorydon How is anarchism "the best choice" when it is not practical in real life at all?
When I see how many homeless people there are in LA, maybe some form of communism is not such a bad idea.
O dear God.
How can you be so uneducated to say something this stupid.
talk that to Mainland commie Chinese.
Yep , send them to gulag. Homelesness problem resolved
Contrary to belief actually Communism focused on those oppressed by the high class , those who were homeless , illiterate, deprived of Education because they were poor or couldn't afford it or Gender inequality. For example with The Cuban Capitalist Government the Illiteracy In the country was around about 95% only the top could read when Communism took place Homelessness dropped to 95% and literacy [being able to read] rosed to 97%. As they were given right to have a home and Education and equality for all. I'm from LATAM and my Countries Honduras and Costa Rica and the rest of LATAM Capitalistism was turning us upside down the U.S was killing my people and hanging Indigenous people because they didn't agree with Capitalism apart from that the U.S wanted to uphold Slavery as well by establishing a Coup in Nicaragua. Although the entirety of LATAM has suffered more than 100's of Coups. So we don't see Communism in bad light. Back then Countries like Venezuela, Bolivia , Cuba were the only ones with Communist Governments that number has grown and now we have 10 Countries with Communist Governments which has helped us go forward. My Country recently accepted a Female President named Xiomara who's A Socialist and her first rule was to give everyone free energy and light (majority to those that lived in poverty) and tackled Military Coups send by the U.S and Drug Traffickers send also by the U.S. Salvador isn't Communist but it's very Anti-American , The Salvador president is seen as a Dictator by the West. He Took charged by Jailing all Gangs and everyone involved in drug Trafficking and the U.S complained about "Human Rights" pleading for the life of Gang Members same ones the U.S has been selling Drugs to and ruining thousands of Families.

Just so y’all know: this season takes place in 1980. They are still in the Cold War

O yeah, He follows the path of his hero Albert Einstein . Good boy.
I'm from communist country and dont know why I laugh so hard on this? Communism is not that bad
China?
The definition of book smart
That’s not communism though. If anything, consumer control over production is kind of a feature of capitalism, since products won’t sell unless people want them
Depends on what you mean by “consumer control” though, I would say. If you mean indirect control in terms of consumers buying less of a certain product, therefore forcing corporations to innovate and improve I would agree with you. That’s how supply and demand works.
But what Sheldon is advocating for is centralised control, meaning that supply would be controlled by a government (representing the people). I guess you hypothetically could replace government controlled supply (representative democracy) with people voting directly for what products should be produced (direct democracy), but that would just cost way too much since the people would have to vote for thousands and thousands of products individually, and that would just be a nightmare economically and administratively. So what you end up with in the end is the socialist planned economy model that had been tried in countries like the Soviet Union, and I just don’t think that’s something we should take inspiration from.
First he talks about central planning, second people could want a product because they think is the best they could afford/take(maybe the alternative is far). That has two problems, 1 they could be wrong, 2 even if it really is the best in their opportunities if there are low alternatives they will take that anyway. Homeopathy, petrol car in 2023 and products with obsolescence programmed to few years, to make examples, are a result of this policy. Free market it's a good tool but it could be improved by regulations.
@@NickGecko And what would such regulations look like in that case? Sheldon's main complaint is that the quality of certain products doesn't meet a certain standard. How exactly would you regulate the market in order to achieve those aims?
@NOA4LY on the production process there already regulations actually, expecially in the EU there are a lot of them. And consumers have today power of negotiate price and quality with several associations that talk with corporations and with the government. Personally I think these things should be extended because it's clear that they are not enough, so much social, health and environmental issues because the focus of the dirigent class is always less on society as all (especially after the Keynesian period). Probably there is also the need of discussing the standard governance system and educate with altruistic values the dirigent class. Then there is the problem that free market without regulations take to oligopolies (look Samsung that controls several sectors in Korea and alone make more than 20% of the GDP) and to low spread of wealth, but these are other subjects.
@NOA4LY anyway planned economy doesn't work as you described (I do not support it). The system in the Soviet union was to give to each "supermarket" the same amount of products, it was not ideal and in fact they have often problems to supply the places. They lack for exemple of the knowledge that some products are more consumed in certain areas. So there are places with a lot of meat and no bread and viceversa. If we want a system of distribution better than the price-market system or at least alternative, we have to found another system of allocation of goods. Maybe by plan your bought a week before and communicating it to a center supermarket-like? It will take to less waste probably and more jobs but I can't say if it would be as effective to supply all places enough.
this is funny bc in tbbt sheldon has more capitalist ideas, i can't remember specific scenes but he's shown many times that he's aligned with right-wing politics
Doesn´t he also desire civilisation to develop like in Star trek,including its cashless society part?

Yay centralized planning 😊
Sheldon is asking for communist/socialism (They are synonyms), recalling that socialism/communist means public ownership of the means of production, and what sheldon is asking for is de-facto public ownership of the means of production. ´
Communism is public ownership. Socialism is government ownership with the objective to create a welfare state
@@a70770 Wrong, firstly government and public ownership are the same (at least de facto) so as minimum by your own claims socialism is a subset of communism. secondly theological considerations are shaky and is better to avoid them. And finally every source before 1918 will agree that they are synonyms the only changed by the soviet propaganda what invented the fiction of the difference between the two.
Communism and socialism are synonyms! That's news to me.
That's not communism.
Bros just suggesting the better form of government. Communism > Capitalism
The irony of sheldon, the most brazenly selfish person, would want communism is wild
Well yeah, when it's done right literally everyone within a communist society benefits and has a much better life than those in capitalist societies.
Because the theory is sound.
