      Obsession with (bad) ideas or driven by neuroses (demons/daemons) are the source of psychotic behaviour every time.
      It doesn't have to be a monumental act, it can be as simple as belief in superstition, (Dostoevsky was a hopeless gambler), but it's always brought about by an obsession and always ends in ruin.
      Excellent content as usual AoI. 👍👍

      What a timely discussion! I don't think Paul in the Bible believed in demons and there are sound arguments that Jesus did not either, but they understood the beliefs people have about them existing. Sadly, people today are bombarded with nefarious, evil ideas constantly and most are below the level of conscious perception through flashing images and subliminal messages, and ever more blatant, in-your-face messages. These lodge in the subconscious mind and if people are unaware, they can be acted upon unwittingly. It happens to everyone to various degrees, and need to be countered. The ancients understood this better than we seem to today.

      @Microtherion 3 роки тому +2

      Chesterton had an excellent point, as usual. What might be most important to understand is that, whilst the past can be misrepresented in order to justify outlandish and ill-founded 'philosophies' (although most specifically political ideologies could charitably be described as 'sub-philosophical'), the future is a more dangerous basis for political mythology, because the future *can only be* misrepresented.
      Even the occasional sci-fi writer who hits upon an uncannily accurate future development usually describes an extremely negative development. We can see a great deal of what is very likely to get worse in the future, whereas more positive 'pre-imaginings' are likely to sound naive. So, a future-oriented tyrant immediately has *nothing* positive to offer - not even a fanatical misinterpretation of a suppressed human trait (collective identity or spirituality etc, twisted into chauvinism and wilful incoherence) - but can only appeal to the most inhuman and degraded aspects of human nature. What else is our media constantly selling us by now? Right-wing media denounce specific groups, while supposedly left-wing media denounce the entire species - for the corruption of the mega-rich, and the increasing near-impossibility of even living decently. They're apparently not even aware of the contradiction this involves...
      When a hopeless situation (hopeless by design, we might add) drives a few people to even 'speak aggressively', they are denounced all over again, as insufficiently 'refined' for the future which is apparently planned for us all. Since it is founded on rank intolerance (double-meaning accidental!), it can only be their future, not ours. Hopefully, of course, it will prove as abortive as their attempts to form arguments. (I'm trying to remember the last time I heard a journalist speak more persuasively than a toddler on any major issue! I'm sure it still happens, but rarely during the last 15 years or so)...

This creates a lack of emphaty and psychopatic behaviour in teens that take it to far, that's why milant atheist start on their teens most of the time, is an atractive way to conceptualize the world if you are a rebel, fundamentalist have reacted on the opposite direction thinking the past was utopia and no mistake was ever made. The mixture of these concepts was seen in the justifications for slavery throu faith and science when people thought people of color were less evolved or primitive or created apart from Adam.

    The problem of psycologhical techniques of manipulation is big and dangerous, even more because of the complexity of the knowledge of that discipline that inevitably leaves a great portion of people out of it. Well, not that it is impossible to understand, but you need time and energy, when most people have to work great part of their day and want to relax or sustain their dreams on their little free time.
    Knowing the great power of that knowledge, people rest on the responsibility and honesty of the ones who posses them and use them. Then we need values that prevent the demons and gives air to human potential, as you say, though human is fragile and there's the tragedy. Also, we rest on the responsibility of each citizen of being informed, in order to fruitfully take part in politic and social public life, what the Greeks thought the most important activity of life. So , I connect this with the matter of need of more free time for people to build their spirit and rationality, the proper preparation to fight stupidity. But, the contradiction is that in free time is where stupidity and consumism find fertile ground. I hope im not mistaken, but I remember Aristotle thought that without leisure, there is no democracy.
    That's all I wanted to say, just give free way to my thoughts. Im sorry if i was redundant or did repeat some things of the video. If any one wants, I would like to discuss or to read what they think.
    First video I watched of your channel and I found good explaining and coherent talking, a good video. I really look forward on this channel, man, this kind of content, no matter how much people see it, leaves room for hope in humanity. Although to believe is to constantly fight and suffer against the most dark side of ourselves, it is worth. You cannot give up when you see a child smile and the vivacity of his eyes.
    Best wishes,

      @@tylermohr25 5 years ago feminism, global warming and open borders was a commonly supported among millenials, now they're more cringe and embarassing (depending on your locale, and if you're still in university of course). Which is why this whole covid nonsense started, at a time when Brexit was happening, Trump more popular than ever, and a lot of populists across Europe gaining votes and seats.
      People are being played, and soon will be angry, this was a very bad idea and it's coming to a close fairly soon, at least by 2022.
