When the new right wing will rise and when intelligent people will stop staying aside and letting those soyboys get control of the political power. If they get control, we are doomed at censorship, racism, sexism, idiocracy, equality of outcome, which will bring us to poverty. Until a coup, revolution or a major event happens. One thing is certain and I will say it bluntly: 1) freedom can be kept only with violence against those who try to disrupt it; 2) Dictatorship was always established by vote, then law, then kept with violence that was protected by law.
If we ever have another World War that is when. Then watch all these SJW transgenders transition back into being women who need real men who are not left wing liberals to go and fight and unfortunetly die so in a few more years after that, those same "We don't need a man, I Identify and Gender Fluid, I think everybody wants to love us and want peace." You watch all these scum hide behind the troops and then 5 years down the track, spit and attack these soldiers once the fighting is over and call them killers. Happend before its will happen again.
Dyomist but when it comes to that, they were trying to be racist. A lot of these comedians, will make a joke, laugh about it and say I’m just kidding. Even Dave Chappelle does that. Those tik tok wanted to be racist. I would say that’s different
moonstrukk who saying they can’t say it? Lol no one ever said that. Freedom of speech doesn’t equate no consequences. You can call a cop a dirty bitch and it’s freedom of speech but you better live with the possible consequences

I'm from Western European, I'm so glad that every single institution I ever attended both school and university (I'm still in university one year from finishing it) and honestly nothing woke has ever entered the classrooms, if anything there are some small jokes about it, and this doesn't happen anywhere tbh at least from my generation that is right now in university. I don't know what is wrong in America or the level these so called subjects have there...
It reminds me of my childhood in catholic school. If I even ASKED for a real reason as to why being gay was bad, it was detention and the obligatory bullying the next day. The only difference in modern colleges is the roles are reversed. It's not healthy. People should feel safe to question their beliefs, especially in an academic setting.
Wow. Being in college for the past few years I’ve felt very uncomfortable. This guy hit the nail on the head and has articulated what’s happening perfectly.

Or you can conserve your energy by ignoring the little shit, and fighting twice as hard when it comes to standing your ground on something that matters. Who are you gonna listen to the most the boy who constantly cries wolf, or the quiet guy who suddenly speaks up with authority.

Definitely. I think the commenters are doing themselves discredit by assigning this to just PC/"SJW" cultures because this is definitely pervasive in like most teens-30 yr olds, right or left.
It's more like, "Destroy-your-life culture". It's much worse than merely calling someone out. They want to unperson their enemies, and it works far too often. Narcissistic, malevolent morons.
Its great when it fits your needs but when it doesnt and there will come a time when it doesn't you'll i understand the misjustes youve help to create...... be careful in blindly casting your ideology on others because it will come back to hurt you learn to discuss, debate, and compromise other wise its the children of the next generations that will suffer they will live in a time were they won't have the freedom to express themselves. For fear or retaliation. Is that what we want?
The phenomena is not exclusive to the "left". If you are casting stones from the "right", well, you have shitty aim. Your team is not so solid in the area of self-awareness and accountability. You people are masters at being self-righteous cradled within a false sense of superiority. (And P.S. "Nut job" is an unintelligent person's insult. It says nothing, really.) Rogan brings up a great point about being less likely to actually TALK out our problems with each other and people like you who fling poo and call names from the privacy of your internet connection... makes you no better than any one of the people you claim to be a "nut job".
I once worked with my desk right next to an SJW. One day she said "ugh, I absolutely hate SJWs", all I could manage to do is stare in utter confusion until saying "you realize you are one trigger word away from going full blown SJW right?" And she followed with straight up denial. This has lead me to wonder, do the vast majority of SJWs not realize they are one? Like they point and laugh at their peers foolishness until one topic/word is brought up from their own endless list of triggers? It's been 4 years and I still think about that moment.
She may have been in the middle of ridding herself of sjw tendencies. I hate SJWs but used to be one and acknowledge I still have intolerances and things to work on. But maybe naturally she felt defensive but poss knew what you said was true. But good job for pointing it out as it would have given her something to think about and work on.
Yeah, that happened in our school as well. The most sensitive person was a right wing racist kid who's parents complained every time we read about islam, women's rights or other cultures.

Is not the collider bro. We have to bear the blame for this. Or curse is the fact that everything we inherently look to for happiness, satisfaction, and improvement are contradictorily, progenitors of the exact opposite. What actually gives us peace and a sense of purpose are counterintuitively, the very things we've sought to eliminate after labeling them as opstacles to overcome. We've escaped the food chain and reached a level of management over our environment that has now left us with an abundance of free time. Time which we've spent over thinking the most basic and fundamental factors of humanity. To the point that the traits and tendencies we've deemed primitive, toxic, or just plain" bad ", are in all actuality the very characteristics that allowed us to strive and progress to the level where we currently find ourselves as a civilization. Technology has hastened the fall of our age and brought us to the precipice of our own demise much quicker than that of our forebears. We are an amazingly complex and hyper-self-destructive species. We bring about our very own destruction in the name of progress.

Call out culture is also based on electronic communications and a lack of social interaction skills. To approach a professor privately would involve a measure of self confidence and the ability to express oneself dynamically and respond dynamically to the other person. Thanks to an extreme reliance on electronic media, those skills are seriously lacking in the post 1995 generation. This is why many people today collapse in tense interpersonal communications and cannot handle them. They prefer to email, text or fill out a form to call someone out or "resolve" a situation. This has also led to emotional weakness in the population and low self confidence. As a result, people are vulnerable and unable to cope which is manifesting in this plethora of social issues we struggle with now.
I was taking classes in Boulder, CO when the mass shooting took place. Was there any discussion about gun control? Absolutely not. I got called out and smear campaigned for looking like a conservative. I didn't even say anything. I even went along with the "mob". I still got called out, probably because she wanted me to defend myself. Another factor, we were also competing for a job at NASA. You either have to one-up the other person or just ignore it altogether. I don't see how we will ever compromise on policy with this mentality.
I was in a sociology class in college, and we started talking about gun control. After the overview of the topic, the professor asked us about what we thought. No one said anything. She then said "We aren't moving on until someone gives me their opinion. I have papers I can be grading so we can either have a discussion or you can sit there and waste your tuition dollars. Your choice." Turns out, it wasn't that people didn't have an opinion, it was that they were afraid of being crucified for having the "wrong opinion". After my professor went on a rant about critical thinking, the rest of the semester went pretty smoothly for class discussions.
I had this exact same experience in an engineering class with no political component whatsoever. I know you think your experience means something in particular, but it's indicative of nothing except that no one wants to be the first person to talk, ever.
I teach and I tells ya, it's brutal trying to get ideas out of the class. I give them the critical thinking talk, but even then folks don't want to talk. And this is Australia, mate!

This clip should be what they recite every morning at schools. The amount of actual idiots inhaling they’re own copium in my generation is terrible and pathetic. Let it be known that although children of the 90’s are basically home fed apes. They do and will always have to live with themselves.
I met high school kids who were starting to behave this way back around 1998 or so. These were all high-ambition academic achievers who lived near an elite university and whose greatest immediate desire was to attend that same university. They were raised on the idea that they were going to “change the world”, and that if they _didn’t_ change the world it would mean they were tantamount to failures. They would have been about 17 in 1998. By 2014 they would have been about 33, managing and/or teaching the next generation of kids.
Yes seems like always the college professors think that they controlled it or they created it … what’s going on with what your statementkids are graduating from college they are going in the teaching and it goes all the way down to grade school so this a bit more dangerous than this professor believes, I’m in a very small town the city fired a woke 2 grade teacher….parents are watching.
I remember being extremely paranoid about my little boys being abducted in the 90s. My oldest son was beautiful when he was a baby and a little boy. When I was a kid, I was free and could go anywhere on my bike when I was a kid in the 70s. My sons didn't get that at all. My oldest would've been much happier and much less anxious if he had had the childhood I had.
Great conversation. This needs to be mandatory for everyone to watch. I’ve been saying this for years. The left and the right hating on each other is becoming a serious societal problem.
Yup, and both sides say that it’s not a “both sides” issue. They both think it’s exclusively the other side making it worse. One side cries Nazis, and the other side cries Commies, not realizing that both sides are neither of those things.
Or heres an idea…you be an individual and like/dislike what you lik/dislike for the reasons you like/dislike it. Or be a coward and only feel safe in a crowd.
For sure it's not a problem for them. It's like shady businesses like pharma or weapons...they create problems that only they can solve...but never do so you keep voting for them. If left and right got along for the good of the people we would have just a couple of politicians left on each side
A metaphor for the overall. Making the entire country babified and censored to the point where any age 16+ content is gone will not only cap the potential of our people but destroy any sort of maturity or sanity outside the select rich upper-class who run things and have the right/knowledge to teach their kids the right way.
How can they lear about horrors of Holocaust, or Gulags? How can they believe they will never repeat the most dreadful things imaginable, if they will never lear about them, and draw their own conclusions? This "i see no Evil" attitude- i fucking detest it... "We don`t talk about bad things, so they do not exist..."- denying a gun aimed at my head will not make me any less dead. Should some real enemy ever rear his or her head- those people will just roll over and die, unable to comprehend... And scariest thing out of all of that is: it doesn`t have to be Hitler, or Mao, or Stalin, or Pol Pot, or Gengis Khan, or other such dramatic example... All it`ll take is unfaithful spouse, a bully, a boss, who revels in little jabs and being mean to his employees- and those people will spiral down into madness or melancholy, unable to defend against the world, unable to armor themselves into "fuck`em" attitude... And what is even worse- they don`t want to burn in Hell alone, they want to drag the rest of us with them
This video is everything, thank you for the insight. I always felt like I was experiencing a backlash by raising unconventional ideas and that often left me feeling pretty lonely throughout my time in education. Now my 12 year old niece had to change schools because she began experiencing bullying for the same reason. How can we combat this? We won't all subscribe to the mainstream narrative and that should be normalized
Well if people want to get educated and involved in a cause they can but it need not be required curriculum imo. In Waterloo On. though for instance about four months ago a teacher and several students were stabbed by a former foreign exchange student angry a gender studies class was being taught but those students opted for that class and are all adults.
"It's not a reasonable person standard", it's a "most sensitive ppl standard" spot on!!! We're taking coddling to a worldwide level. I hate it here, like on earth.
its a backlash. Just like how Trumpism was a backlash to SJW culture, SJW culture was a backlash to the religious right, you know, the original SJW's that always said they were offended at the idea of gay people getting married on religious grounds. In the end all these groups just devolved into the same thing. Tribalism.
I graduated from college in 2011, so I avoided most of the SJW culture. That being said, I do remember little bread crumbs of it creeping in around then. Not in an extremely noticeable way, but just enough to be able to recognize it as such.
Ah, I graduated from undergrad in 2013 and the trigger warning thing was seen as a joke at the time. Then I went to grad school in 2015 and was shocked at how sensitive my classmates were. I felt really disconnected from everyone at the time and thought that there must've been something wrong with me. Like, I really didn't understand why things were so different, so I came to the conclusion that maybe I was inherently evil or something since I couldn't agree with people on anything anymore. I was a hardcore Democrat at the time which is the weird thing. But even back then I felt kinda weird about going on marches because I felt like it was dangerous. And I did not support rioting and do support the police (most police officers are good, I believe). I was a victim of a violent crime when I was 9, so I've always seen the police as my heroes. I remember how safe I felt when I finally saw them as a child. Which is why I would disagree so much with the Left's ideas about the police that I just started to feel left out. IDK. Grad school was very lonely for me and my mental health took a turn for the worst.
I am apart of generation Z and I completely agree with the fact that my generation is more depressed and unequipped to handle conflict. These are strange and scary times.
@@djangosouthwest6043 I call Gen Z the 9/11 generation, meaning they don't remember 9/11 at all. Most people who are 24 25 and older remember it to some degree and they're the Millenials.
So get out away from your computer and learn something outdoors. Build a tree house, fix a car, learn to box or Krav Maga. You might find something that hooks you.

@@wrigleyishome4764 dude it fucked me up the 1st time I met an adult that didn't remember 9/11. It really begs the question "why are you so soft?" I remember life before and after 9/11. My earliest memories did not include a war. These kids grew up with war as a part of life and yet they're softer than my generation who were still in school when the war began.
I was still in my 20s during the Lehman Brothers debacle. In truth that was the catalyst. The 2009 collapse destroyed any hope that young kids had in a comfortable future in this country.
completely agree, It pains me but I can see this in my younger brother(born after Sub-prime). Im a 00s kid and even though the 00s were filled with dark times, the 10s and 20s are actually horrible. This last generation have it really bad. Grew up thinking of ways in which they would fix everything in the world. No new value added for themselves. Only fixing an inherited garbage system. But I always tell him that, he will never be sent a problem unless the lord is extremely confident of his ability to overcome it.
The university I graduated from only 1.5 months ago, at 28 years old, with a BA in Creative Writing, is polluted and sickly with that very concept. It is a fantastic school that I owe everything to. That being said, a ‘reasonable person standard’ does not exist there, only a culture of ‘callout’ and reporting professors for the way that they do their jobs if even one person feels perturbed. In short: ‘if you’re a republican, get the hell out of here because we coddle the left and dare anyone to defy us’. I saw it in classes, on campus, in university-wide announcements, in campus imagery (or lack thereof), and so on and so forth. Discrimination and injustice… absolutely. I’ll stand right in line with minorities who claim and show that to me legitimately not abiding by ‘callout culture’. But what’s happened is that these oppressive and discriminatory things existed for so long that now we’re swinging the pendulum back the other way even stronger in order to compensate which is no different and quite frankly disturbing. They think that the way through is to swing it back even harder the other way now? I could go on and on…
I’m a old SJW, my parents were extremely strict, my father (a Marine Vietnam vet) whooped our asses continually and we all are liberals. Keep listening to right wing propagandists and you’ll never know the truth.
We can't censor the truth just because it makes some people feel bad, we can't never condone destroying freedoms of speech because some people find offence in it. The sjw want to warp your mind into believing the system is wrong and that your a victim, when no one is a victim or are oppressed in this country.
What I find particularly disturbing or troubling is that many of the same people who demand respect, who demand that you use "safe" words and language around them so that they are not "harmed" are often quick to call others "fucking Nazis" and other names. It appears that their concerns about feelings only goes one way; you must be very sensitive to their feelings but they don't have to have similar or any concerns about others and their feelings. "Safe spaces for me but none for thee."
The brilliance of the leftist modus operandi is that they call the group of leftist fascists ANTIFA. This is so they can virtue signal about how they're all against fascism, all the while being fascists. See Saul Alinsky Rules for Radicals.
@@pbaker7160 As John McWhorter - and a few others - have noted it's much like a religious sect with its view of sinners and sinned against. If you're sinned against, if you're a victim, then you have absolute moral authority. You cannot be challenged; you cannot even be questioned; and those who do so are driven out. On the other hand, the US has a terrible, awful history of mistreating "the other", especially black men and women. History is, as William Faulkner pointed out, not dead, it's not even past. It's with us today and one of the best ways to argue against the left on these issues is to address the real injustices that have been done.
This is what happens when you couple Narcissism with lack of empathy, something that is running rampant in this day and age. Social media is partly to blame, things like facebook, twitter, instagram, etc etc, they all basically promote a huge culture of narcissism.
Steven Galbraith I totally agree. The problem is also a lot of times these people are being fed these ideas at schools and universtities, some even at home. They are much like a religious cult. They also have, as I call it, a moral superiority complex, these people aren’t confronted enough with different view points and because they’re closed off they don’t tend to listen. Look at the debate between actual justice warrior and Hasan Piker, Hasan is literally closed off of every argument and point of AJW. Hasan is literally a fanatic.
I was a teen in the 90s. Went thru a whole goth phase. Massive idenity issue. Fast forward today you would never guess I went thru that. Social media wasnt really a thing then. Some would say oh you just conformed to what society wanted you to be. Looking back I had severe mental health that just didn't get treated. Who was I supposed to be. Where am I supposed to go. And I became the whole goth scene to belong somewhere to be something. And it was a lot of work to actually conform to that lifestyle. What changed me was moving around. Seeing alot of different people. Then I had children. And it was no longer about me. And I try to openly tell them what it was like to go thru that phase. That it never truely made me happy. Never treated what was really making me unhappy. So changing to extremes doesnt change how you feel. It obscures and distracts you from one simple point. We are all just a drop in the ocean. And your identity isnt as important in all that so I think you don't know who or what you're supposed to be because of that.
You hit on a key point that you had children and you realized “it was no longer about me.” I’ve been around for sixty three years and I have watched our society become more and more narcissistic, self indulgent. There’s enormous cultural pressure now to devalue having children which is a powerful (and the most important) biological function of a human being. This and other indulgences are destroying what it means to be a human being. This is not sustainable.
university work used to be safe and dull... now it's stressful and toxic... it's surprising that academics can tolerate it without having a breakdown. who would employ woke graduates?!

Between 1992 and 1999 there were some great bands. They came out and spoke a lot about the underdog - what it was like to be one - and that no one should have to be one. A lot of us rallied around it, not realizing it was nihilism hidden as anarchy and fighting any bully. I sure was one of those people. If you felt lyou had been mistreated, ignored, shamed, underestimated and underappreciated - then I was on your side and so was the music of the time. Fast forward to 2021 - a lot of those bands promoting anarchy turned into "Just get the Jab!" groups.. that's their anarchy? Just do what the government says? Then, for al ot of people, the nihilism ran its course, as it always will, and we all began to self-destruct with anxiety and suicides. And now you have these SJW folks that are the extension of that period of time. But like many extensions, they are a caricature of the original intent. As for me, I figured it out - Nihilism sucks. Reading from a weak loser script is where a lot of us start (as its the script that is handed to us) but a lot of us throw that script away, and grab something stronger and healthier...and then we evolve furhter, and grab something even stronger and healthier. Rinse, repeat as neeeded. Don't fall for the nihilism in our society. It's not a hero's message. Don't fall for the endless dark depressing messages in everything these days. Beauty IS. So are You.
That's actually a great point -- in recent years, we could ask someone about their opinion on one key political issue, and then we could predict their opinions on a wide range of other unrelated issues. It's almost as if the conspiracy people in the 80's/90's were right -- people were really being programmed.
I used to tell "internet people" all the time in chatrooms or forums. The media and politicians and social media all make things seem one way. But walk outside, go around your city. Do you see the America they portray? I know I don't.
Yeah, like they said: "The world is a huge place, and its rare that it'll happen to you." I'm paraphrasing, but you get the point.

I unconsciously applied situational awareness before I even knew what that meant. Shits scary...
Ryan Nichols I find that if you take the time to actually talk with people, and ask them what their views really are, they will tell you.

How does this Professor maintain that soft spoken monotone voice level. When he raises his voice to make a point, his voice actually goes down! That is amazing. Joe has a pointy voice like me, we irritate people just by speaking, but the Professor has mastered the skill of the soft voice.
@cmbecks how is that creepy? They’re just agreeing with the professor having a nice voice and commenting how his lectures are probably nice to listen to. A major thing a lot of good professors try to do is speaking in a calm and respectful tone so we find what they say honest and approachable. There’s nothing creepy about it.
I can say if I had a choice I wouldn't have lived past 2001. That's when the anti common sense movement started for me. We're not evolving. We're going backwards. Sure we have fancy shit. But I just notice more and more normal people struggle with the simplest of everyday tasks. It's so frustrating to me. Everything takes longer and is more complicated than 20 or 30 years ago.
Man, I love this. Both my parents are professors at universities in the DMV area (Hopkins, GW), and they are both SUPER liberal but have complained relentlessly about the same issues stated here. When I ask them if they've made any complaints to the dean, ran it up the flagpole, etc. they always say that they simply can't. If tenured professors can't do anything about this without fear of repercussion, the only option we have is to try our best to stop it at the source.
It seems like the real problem is that nobody is willing to stand up against this. Maybe if professors tried to make a coordinated effort, it would be difficult to fire them all.
I’m on the left, but seeing people overreact, judging, making acquisitions, the left now isn’t the side I remember. We should want progress not a liberal dictatorship
Since you seem to be one of the few leftists remaining who is capable of being reasonable, what "progress" do you guys want at this point? We've already had a civil rights movement. The country may not be perfect and obviously there are things like prison reform, education reform, etc that can be improved, but women, minorities, gays, trans, etc all have equal rights under the law. If you can't point out any specific laws or policies we should change that are actually racist or oppressing people, then the "progress" that the left seems to want is really just thought policing. It is not possible to force people to think the way you want them to without true oppression and authoritarianism. I'm genuinely trying to figure out what "progress" you are talking about because we're at a point where progressives have become incredibly regressive.

@@toddbrown242 Left-Right distinctions are supposed to deal with economic issues, so the progress that most of us want has to do with decreasing inequality, enforcing living wage for full-time employment, removing the ridiculously oppressive system of health care being tied to employment (and thus giving employers far too much power over their employees), and a whole number of other issues of that sort. Basically at least reform capitalism to make it somewhat compatible with humanity. All the shit you're referring to is (in principle) not really a specifically left-right thing at all.
That left-right polarization increase during the 90s coincides with the change of news media turning to *for-profit.* THAT'S your big factor right there.
I’m a college student and I had a professor (in an acting class) who literally told a middle aged student that she was wrong for saying that she didn’t want to be reduced to the label of her skin color, age, religion, etc. this woman was told that she had no idea what it was like to be a non-white person in America, which is true. However, her point was completely twisted as possibly racist. The professor then proceeded to tell us about a book he read about racism. He seemed pretty proud of himself.
I recently left my entire social group behind and deleted all social media. Between cancel culture and virtue signaling I knew some pretty ugly-hearted , uncompassionate, judgemental, self-righteous people.
Most professors are, despite what some media outlets would have you believe. As he points out, the culture warriors are actually fairly rare on campus--they're just very, very aggressive and noisy.
The subject came up about professors jst goin along with the students who are more sensitive blah blah and being careful what you say and this professor admitting that he has to be care , I find it hilarious that while he's speaking to Joe Rogan ,he's almost whispering as if a sensitive student is lurking about listening . Lmassoff. Go back and check out the professor and see if he whispering half the time he's speaking Lmassoff again .
Mainly creativity has been abolished, because every time you make something but some humpty dumpty lookin guy is gonna say “REEE YOU MAKE ME MAD YOU RACIST HOMO”. So you’re just stuck to do the stuff you don’t want to do and the creativity in you burns to soot and goes away in small gust
Ricky Steez who are these kids? Mine understand nuance and metaphors. I also didn't raise idiots or to be so easily offended. However, if they see someone being racist, homophobic or what have you they will call your a** out and embarrass them like they are making the other person feel. They do so without recording it or posting it to social media. Why? Because it's not about them, it's about letting the victim feeling, not alone and making the other person feel as stupid as they sound and JUST MAYBE, help them be be better Parents need to actually parent, That combined with social media is a recipe for disaster.
The problem is normal people not acting accordingly with their bs. They should be stopped immediately then and there. We just never took them seriously
I’ve been saying it. If we don’t change how social media is allowed to function we are all doomed. These young ignorant kids today have no idea what they’re doing to the world.
Tony Baseballs kinda does actually. You see you have to take into account the psychology of an individual when you decide to base your opinion on what they espouse. Not just in whether or not you already agree with what they say. I get the feeling you also have social interaction issues.
@@thescourgeofathousan No, you only have to consider the validity of the content. The psychology of the speaker has nothing to do with it unless you're looking for a way to dismiss the content without considering it. For instance, one could easily dismiss everything you say based on your last sentence, since that reveals you to be one of those people who thinks shooting the messenger is a substitute for logic. But I didn't do that.
I first noticed this occurring after the Trayvon Martin case in 2012. This thing where, no... this is the way it is and if you say anything different we're either going to shout you down or threaten you. This was only online in more left leaning forums, and until that time you could identify me as a centrist who leaned left. By that time I'd voted Democrat for 20 years. Since then it has expanded and gotten stronger because of the collegiate and left wing-tech company dominance. It all came as a big shock to me since I'd always thought 'left wing' meant the very opposite of what it means today.
I was out of the U.S. for 20 years and recently came back. I think there's A LOT more going on than what people are discussing. Upon return to the U.S. I immediately noticed how rude and hateful so many people are; at the restaurant, stores, everywhere. I connect the rudeness to many things but high on the list is people are grumpy about being in a dead end job with lower pay than before. Looks to me like the country is gutted, millions of jobs were moved overseas and most people have no choice but to basically work like a slave--Wage Theft is a HUGE problem, something we cannot ignore. I don't see a middle class anymore, seems like 1 out of 10 people are upper class the other 9 are lower middle class or poor. I've noticed THE ONLY time someone is nice is when they're trying to sell me something that they'll get a commission for..beyond disturbing..see how the corporations have turned everybody into whores? 2nd, Facebook has ruined millions of peoples lives, yes, this is connected to SJW, it might be COMPLETELY SJW but no matter what Facebook, in my opinion, is WAY WAY more destructive than what most people imagine. I do know people that are on Facebook ALL DAY LONG. At home, work, when they go to the bathroom, while they eat, and even take it to bed with them. It's their one companion, one that has completely INDOCTRINATED them into one side of the story, all the while HATING on people on the other side of the story. In short, I think the roots of all this hatred may go back many decades but once the technology really took off in the late 90's/early 00's the hatred went on steroids. The U.S. may have a high standard of living but is it something to brag about if most of the nation is full of angry, hateful, unhappy, obese, lower middle class, whores for the corporations.. AND extremely addicted to hate-filled Facebook etc?
Great points about FB. I've tried it a couple times. It doesn't take long to get sucked into the routine of looking at it every waking moment. Or feeling like an attention whore, by posting stuff. I also don't like how they seem to know everything i do online or through my cell... for the sake of advertising. It's pretty pathetic.
You make an excellent point, however I think it’s more than just Facebook. Our country treats us like farm animals because their only interest is our output.
We have a BINGO!!! It all started with the hollowing out of the middle class by Reagan. Gone down hill since. We rely on a document 234 years old to provide guidance. We need to break the whole thing down and rebuild.
For someone born in 75 and not in the US it's insane. Frankly all of us are fed up with having to guess if we offend anyone. This makes people not speak at all for the most part. Then there's more anger because people don't speak to them. They will cancel themselves in the end.

People used to laugh at me for being a centerist, when I told people stop picking one general side and start thinking on individual issues seperately instead. Group mentality is something we've not evolved out of from our time as tribespeople. It's time for humanity to start thinking like individuals instead of getting stuck in group-think
Honestly Roe v. Wade doomed any chance you ever see the large scale develop out of party mentality. Once Roe came out conservatives saw an opportunity to stick to an issue to gain power and the liberals adopted the opposite side for the same reasons. Look at how any major political appointment or election almost always hinges on this one topic. Politics has genuinely boiled down to this one issue as a whole.
thinking on individual issues doesn't necessarily lead to centrism, you can have disagreements with both parties but nevertheless a strong lean to one side, and "picking a side" and adopting all its positions without much consideration can also lead you to becoming a type of moderate. so they are two totally different things. the fact that the system is incapable of supporting more than two parties does obfuscate things and affects the way people think about how others think politically.
Teenagers have always lacked gratefulness, tried to assert stupid labels and break up the adult made world. But nowadays instead of letting us grow out of it and find our place we're put on national TV 💯
Feeling uncomfortable as a student in college classes empowers one to ask questions, contribute in study groups, learn from others, form opinions that shape their psychological belief system and interpersonal relatioinships. I did not take a stand on many topics because of either subject apathy or subject ignorance. It has taken over a dozen or more studious years to be able to speak on my beliefs about social issues. How are kids today picking a side so quickly? How are students choosing a side with so little life experience? And the big concern, why are students so eager to die on the sword defending a list of controversial points just because all of the points are popular to their causes narrative?
As a former SJW, I must confess: I’m hella embarrassed for what I used to think as a college student from ‘04-‘08. At the time, in a VERY subtle way, the concepts most SJWs have now adopted as pontificated doctrine were being introduced to us in bite-sized amounts. Once placed on an aggregate score, it was easy to see this: that white men and white women were to blame for why things suck for minorities like me. Because “the devil” was finally given a face and a name, it became easy to, as a collective, point to “the problem” and say “so THIS is why things have been so tough for me lately!” Until you actually meet with and interact with “the devil” and you see he/she has a few demons of their own.. Growing out of this flawed logic, I learned one exceedingly important lesson: be prepared to accept that you, yourself, may be the maker of your own misery. And no one else. Edit (5/22/2020): just wanted to add a few more things given the response this comment has received - being an SJW extremist is no less worse than being an extremist Alt-Right. These can BOTH be toxic in high doses. My idealistic wish is for SJWs to realize they are anti-fragile (as Heidt’s book states). And that the last thing they need to be doing is hoisting blame on factors that are external to themselves. It’s amazing what one can achieve when they start to take responsibility for their own actions. My idealistic wish for members of the Alt-Right is to remember that you lose nothing in quieting your own insecurities and concerns and take a moment to listen to the legitimate issues and set-backs minorities and other disenfranchised peoples of this nation have experienced over the years. Everyone froths at the mouth and is ready to be on the defensive without even properly assessing whether an engagement with “the other side” will be an antagonistic one. It may very well be a productive disagreement if we all just let our fingers off the trigger for a moment. That’s all.
So that's why SJWs have a huge hatred of white people, not just men but also women, too. They really wanted to save the minorities from discrimination only to focus on destroying the Western society for being too "problematic". I'm no expert at political biases but they wanted to ruin their own image just to prove their point. They also ruined the entertainment industry as well by infiltrating the system and slip their agenda to prove that "all men are evil" and "women needs to be saved from a cruel man". I'm not even an American but I feel sorry for the US for getting infected by their ideological views. I'm glad you escaped from the hands of "the Devil" who wanted not only to take over the world, but wanted the world to see them. So tell me, what's your justified reason of why white people should be blamed for all the minor's "problems"?
Mr. Friendship it’s easier to hoist responsibility in others before recognizing “The Enemy” is within. That said, this doesn’t, incidentally, mean that institutionalized forms of systemic racism don’t exist. Far from it. Example: the other day I went to my local jewelers to get my watch’s battery replaced. The jeweler is the kind of establishment where I need to be buzzed in in order to gain access. The door had clear windows. And as I approached to ring the buzzer, I noticed an older couple walking towards this same door to leave. They seemed nice and cheery, so I smiled at them, as well. As they opened the door to let themselves out and let me in, the FIRST words out of the woman accompanied by her male companion were “now no shoplifting today, got it!?” with a wag of her finger and a grin. I was too shocked to even know how to respond. Was it racist? Was it prejudicial? Could she have known I’m Hispanic? Was it the way I dressed? Is it the fact I’m young? Was she being prejudicial on the basis of my skin? My age? My appearance? My attire? Was it even a funny joke? Idk. A more charitable interpretation would be “it was just a poorly executed joke..” a more sensitive interpretation would be “it was a racist or, at the very least, a very prejudicial joke.” I’m inclined to believe it was at least prejudicial. And THOSE kinds of things DO need to be stamped out. They were white, btw.
@@franciscomiranda6882 I'm certain that their own pitiful life is a fitting punishment. I look much younger than my stated age, and as such oftentimes I'm treated as if I'm a clueless youngster. I can't count how many times once they learn my age their entire tone and approach change drastically.
Kirk Lazarus that’s why I always wait until all the facts are in before making conclusions of any kind. Just simple patience would go a long way for folks.
@@franciscomiranda6882 Unfortunately, we live in an instant gratification type of world. I thought it would only be an issue with the younger generations, but somehow our forebears are just as bad.
Also. this "call out culture" can also be seen as online bullying. And people commit suicide from being bullied. So while you may be calling someone out for saying "shoot me now" which would be offensive to people who have experienced suicide in his circles, your actually possibly driving someone to commit suicide themselves. Its inherently hypocrytical
I miss the time when I was growing up and people had different political views and had conversations and at the end of the conversation were still friends now a days people can't disagree with each other it seems to me is that people just aren't maturing anymore
Human beings are living WAY too good in this day and age. We got an abundance of food, water, supplies etc.. Technology has spoiled a lot of young people to the point of them now actively LOOKING to be offended (a.k.a excitement). People feel accomplished by being sensitive nowadays & social media is a huge part of this. SJW culture is simply a thing because we’re too comfortable & got too much security. Pretty much we don’t have enough real sh*t to worry about. Our basic human needs are met, so now let’s look for something *extra.* To anyone reading this, what’s your thoughts on what I said?
BlackySpeakz What you mentioned is definitely a big part of it. These people are commonly bullies disguised as victims and don't even realize. Lack of attention and narcissism are also contributors. Love your videos by the way!
1) Debate and society is getting increasingly polarized which is making everyone look like fucking idiots. 2) If this is the price for comfort and security then so be it because the alternative to comfort and security is a lot worse. You don't need to study history for too long to be convinced of that.
As a registered nurse for thirty years I am overwhelmed by every social worker being completely hateful of the idea of people as individual human beings, intolerance of freedom of thought and aggressive when encouraged to use critical thinking. The opposite of what I saw earlier in my career
What values do you find that social workers espouse now? Do you think social workers are particularly left leaning and woke compared to other professions? Btw I'm genuinely interested and liked your comment 🙂
@@shway1 Classical liberals created the Age of Enlightenment...we are now considered on the Right! I'm not attempting to persuade you because I know from my time debating at uni 10 years ago just how futile an exercise that is. Woke dogma > Facts & logic

By stop pointing fingers and demonizing each other. Polar opposites are always going to clash. The left has been bullied since the 60's. Now the right is being bullied. Either way it's rediculous. Everything in life is about balance.
Only a minute in, and I can tell Jonathan's got a better understanding of the whole timeline of this craziness than even Bret Weinstein, the former Evergreen professor. The only adjustment I would make to his timeline is putting the tipping point at 2011/2012 instead of 2014. The dying gasps of Occupy Wall Street is where we started seeing things like the progressive stack and public awareness of things like "privilege" and "it's not my responsibility to educate you."
Well I can tell you how it got mainstream. In 2002 the band weezer brought “Hipsters” out in fashion and just like every SJW, these Hipsters looked uniquely the same. They would have handlebar curled mustaches, plaid buttoned shirts, a skullcap, weird colored pants, and usually some sort of leather dress shoes on. They also had a ton of really shitty tattoos. All of their clothes looked like they were bought from Goodwill. These people were ABSURDLY and I mean ABSURDLY stuck up, they had this idea that they were original, artsy, and a gift to society. These people ended up evolving like Pokémon into the SJWs you see today.
SWJ started around the time of the George Zimmerman trail or verdict. There are times in American history where things happen and people feel the need to stand for something. Sometimes these stances become extreme. It’s almost like an over correction.
It began during the first two years of my undergrad degree. They began introducing "equality and diversity" and "social justice officers" into students unions, who were paid full time. I actually lapped a lot of it up at the time (mainly because I wanted to feel included and that is important for us as tribal/social animals). But in hindsight I realised that these people are mostly narcissistic, lacking in empathy and Machiavellian in nature. These are known as the dark triad traits, and you want to avoid people high in these as much as possible.
Something similar when I was in college. The idea it was 2014 is only half-accurate. 2010 was when it really began creeping in and by 2013, it had finally gone full-swing. 2014 is really where we start seeing it in the mainstream. I basically witnessed the rise and ideological evolution of the SJW mindset as college played out. It went from discouraging homophobia in the wake of the rash of suicides at the time (not a problem, hatred isn't good) to that crap about "cultural appropriation" halfway in (goodbye, Taco Tuesday... although they've since loosened up considerably on that in favor of "cultural celebration"), then full-Tumblr in the end. Obama gets all the rap when really he simply and unwittingly opened the floodgates for what is fortunately just a vocal minority when you actually look into it. The only problem comes from when politicians give them too much power by incorrectly assuming most think like this. Ditto with the Religious Right and their inverted view where they're a persecuted minority trying to "save" the majority. Most (like me) don't give a shit unless it actually affects others. Thomas Jefferson put it best: "That which does not pick my pocket nor break my leg serves as any injury to me." He said it about religion when defending the First Amendment, but on a personal scale applied it to many things. While some of their demands were fairly reasonable (same-sex marriage, legalizing cannabis, raising the minimum wage slightly in wealthier areas, etc.), it just wasn't and isn't enough for them and now the social insanity they want is driving the internet and most sane humans to the breaking point. Equality and equity are good. Diversity is good. Using it as an excuse to be a dick to others? Not good.
@Seven Inches of Throbbing Pink Jesus I have found that leaving social media and not being around many people now due to lockdown has given me more of an opportunity to think for myself. But it's very difficult to know what is an actual original thought rather than something paraphrased from someone else
I saw a graphic once and it has stuck with me ever since. It was circular and stated "hard times lead to hard people, hard people lead to soft times, soft times lead to soft people, soft people lead to hard times"
Younger people, especially nowadays, believe that they know everything just because we have access to the internet. I'm 20, so I fall into that category. I think people get under the impression that just because they are informed, that whatever they have to say on the matter is suddenly justified, even though most people only seem to inform themselves from biased sources to begin with. Just because one is "into politics", does not mean that they are inherently superior or correct on matters presented. In fact, a lot of the time people who get super invested in politics become so obsessed with it that they start to lose sight of different perspectives entirely. It is really sad to see, but I always appreciate when I meet people who are open minded and willing to accept criticism. I am still personally working on that, because I know that I am young. As much as I have learned, and as much as I know, there is still always more to be learned about other people. I try very hard not to get lost in that desire to know everything and be objectively correct all the time. It is ok to not know things, it is ok to realize that you don't have all the answers. That's what talking to other people, and listening is for.
There's so much I want to say here. First of all, thank you for this video. It was insightful and it gave me a better understanding of SJW culture. My younger sister stopped talking to me nearly 6 months ago. Without getting too much into it, a lot of it had to do with SJW mentality. (For example, she would definitely talk shit about Joe Rogan and his guest here both being 2 affluent, white, straight dudes mansplaining to the world from a place of privilege.) She has applied Cancel-Culture to our relationship, which was once one of the strongest, healthiest relationships I had. Her move has left me confused and wounded in a way that I don't know how to process. This guy's explanation described my sisters upbringing and behavior very accurately, which has helped me understand what I'm dealing with.
I’m sorry to hear about your falling out with your sister. As someone who’s very family and relationship oriented, it saddens me to hear things like this happen. I hope your relationship with your sister is healed with time.
@@bensimmons6149- Thank you for the encouragement. You might not believe me, but today has special significance for me and several months ago, I set it as a date in my mind for me to reach out to her. For you to message me this, today of all days...Man, that sure feels like a sign of some sort.
Wow, I'm so sorry! Also, this might be random, but reading your comment reminded me of the cult-like MLMs like Primerica. I remember when I started college a lot of my friends got recruited into them, and the MLMs had planted the idea that anyone who tried to talk you out of it was jealous and not supportive of you, so therefore they were a bad friend/relative. I can't tell you how many friends those people lost. This dogmatic mentality is the same one that SJW culture is using to silence anyone who has anything to say that isn't a mere echo of what they want you to believe.
"Because you don't get credit for that." It just clicked in my mind, a quiet chat about something doesn't go around the news, kids want attention. I'm an 18 year old who has been reported twice in my college, and I didnt even know until recently when chatting to a member of staff 😂 I got the information about the reports and it was little jokes and shit that cannot possibly offend anyone, but you have that hero kid that needs to stand up for the little guy that isnt even there, deal with the evil and then get the news around that they have slain the beast. It's based in attention seeking, which i find rediculous in 18 year olds, grow up.
That your way of telling your critics to shut up? Being a whiney SJW causes real world problems for people, that's why people complain about Karens....point out the craziness.
I've noticed that a few feminists think the Karen meme is sexist. Might it be the case that soon gen z won't be too fond of feminism? I think that's what is happening slowly.
@bruce wayne just because its offending you does not make it not a freedom of speech. Are you kidding me? This is the exact ideology this video is talking about. Like what Jordan Peterson said, "In order to think you have to risk of being offensive." Hopefully you will understand after this comment.
Like Rogan said, the student should have just told the professor they didn't like the comment and felt it was inappropriate. I can imagine someone who lost a friend or family member would have trouble taking the comment in the spirit intended.
@@76shian u alright there buddy. did these people offended go to a war too see someone get shot. the only reason that person called the teacher is clout, if ur offended that easily of that phrase you probably never even heard a gun shot. it’s always the most protected self righteous kids in society that do this. ffs hate commenting on yt to people who can’t think for themselves or leave vague vague replies so u don’t know what they mean
His time frame on when it started is completely wrong. I can remember in 2011 and 2012 when people were screaming about micro aggressions and everything else. Even in 2011 during occupy Wall Street I knew college professors that gave excused absences and some even gave automatic As for students that missed class to be there.
16:15 that's only one explanation. another explanation is that the two sides have been becoming so extreme and outlandish in their beliefs that it's completely reasonable for any rational person to call out the more extreme bs and keep things within bounds... and that's a healthy thing to do. imagine if more people spoke up while nazis were rising or communists were rising.
: Call-out culture is what used to be called "telling", and most everyone couldn't stand the kids who told on everyone for everything. And frequently those kids made everything up to tell.
Marius Riley I grew up in Northern Ireland. People who told on others were called touts. Touts would be shunned, beaten up. Touts to the police would be shot.
Bigger question is when it will end.
with weeping
When the new right wing will rise and when intelligent people will stop staying aside and letting those soyboys get control of the political power. If they get control, we are doomed at censorship, racism, sexism, idiocracy, equality of outcome, which will bring us to poverty. Until a coup, revolution or a major event happens. One thing is certain and I will say it bluntly: 1) freedom can be kept only with violence against those who try to disrupt it; 2) Dictatorship was always established by vote, then law, then kept with violence that was protected by law.
If we ever have another World War that is when. Then watch all these SJW transgenders transition back into being women who need real men who are not left wing liberals to go and fight and unfortunetly die so in a few more years after that, those same "We don't need a man, I Identify and Gender Fluid, I think everybody wants to love us and want peace." You watch all these scum hide behind the troops and then 5 years down the track, spit and attack these soldiers once the fighting is over and call them killers. Happend before its will happen again.
There will have to be a cataclysmic event or economic collapse in America for SJWs to wake up to the fact that they can't live in a bubble.
When the environment has gotten so bad that the standard of living has dropped to the point that anyone who does this kind of shit will be ignored.

It's more like, "Destroy-your-life culture". It's much worse than merely calling someone out. They want to unperson their enemies, and it works far too often. Narcissistic, malevolent morons.

You people are masters at being self-righteous cradled within a false sense of superiority. (And P.S. "Nut job" is an unintelligent person's insult. It says nothing, really.)

I once worked with my desk right next to an SJW. One day she said "ugh, I absolutely hate SJWs", all I could manage to do is stare in utter confusion until saying "you realize you are one trigger word away from going full blown SJW right?" And she followed with straight up denial.
This has lead me to wonder, do the vast majority of SJWs not realize they are one? Like they point and laugh at their peers foolishness until one topic/word is brought up from their own endless list of triggers? It's been 4 years and I still think about that moment.
She may have been in the middle of ridding herself of sjw tendencies. I hate SJWs but used to be one and acknowledge I still have intolerances and things to work on. But maybe naturally she felt defensive but poss knew what you said was true. But good job for pointing it out as it would have given her something to think about and work on.
Just because you view someone as an SJW doesn’t mean they are an SJW.
No this means there is even worse SJWs scary stuff

Call out culture is also based on electronic communications and a lack of social interaction skills. To approach a professor privately would involve a measure of self confidence and the ability to express oneself dynamically and respond dynamically to the other person. Thanks to an extreme reliance on electronic media, those skills are seriously lacking in the post 1995 generation. This is why many people today collapse in tense interpersonal communications and cannot handle them. They prefer to email, text or fill out a form to call someone out or "resolve" a situation. This has also led to emotional weakness in the population and low self confidence. As a result, people are vulnerable and unable to cope which is manifesting in this plethora of social issues we struggle with now.
I was taking classes in Boulder, CO when the mass shooting took place. Was there any discussion about gun control? Absolutely not. I got called out and smear campaigned for looking like a conservative. I didn't even say anything. I even went along with the "mob". I still got called out, probably because she wanted me to defend myself. Another factor, we were also competing for a job at NASA. You either have to one-up the other person or just ignore it altogether. I don't see how we will ever compromise on policy with this mentality.
I was in a sociology class in college, and we started talking about gun control. After the overview of the topic, the professor asked us about what we thought. No one said anything. She then said "We aren't moving on until someone gives me their opinion. I have papers I can be grading so we can either have a discussion or you can sit there and waste your tuition dollars. Your choice."
Turns out, it wasn't that people didn't have an opinion, it was that they were afraid of being crucified for having the "wrong opinion". After my professor went on a rant about critical thinking, the rest of the semester went pretty smoothly for class discussions.
I had this exact same experience in an engineering class with no political component whatsoever. I know you think your experience means something in particular, but it's indicative of nothing except that no one wants to be the first person to talk, ever.
I teach and I tells ya, it's brutal trying to get ideas out of the class. I give them the critical thinking talk, but even then folks don't want to talk. And this is Australia, mate!

I met high school kids who were starting to behave this way back around 1998 or so. These were all high-ambition academic achievers who lived near an elite university and whose greatest immediate desire was to attend that same university. They were raised on the idea that they were going to “change the world”, and that if they _didn’t_ change the world it would mean they were tantamount to failures.
They would have been about 17 in 1998. By 2014 they would have been about 33, managing and/or teaching the next generation of kids.
Sounds like a upcoming horror movie 😱

I remember being extremely paranoid about my little boys being abducted in the 90s. My oldest son was beautiful when he was a baby and a little boy. When I was a kid, I was free and could go anywhere on my bike when I was a kid in the 70s. My sons didn't get that at all. My oldest would've been much happier and much less anxious if he had had the childhood I had.
Great conversation. This needs to be mandatory for everyone to watch. I’ve been saying this for years. The left and the right hating on each other is becoming a serious societal problem.
Yup, and both sides say that it’s not a “both sides” issue.
They both think it’s exclusively the other side making it worse. One side cries Nazis, and the other side cries Commies, not realizing that both sides are neither of those things.
Or heres an idea…you be an individual and like/dislike what you lik/dislike for the reasons you like/dislike it. Or be a coward and only feel safe in a crowd.

Making the entire country babified and censored to the point where any age 16+ content is gone will not only cap the potential of our people but destroy any sort of maturity or sanity outside the select rich upper-class who run things and have the right/knowledge to teach their kids the right way.
How can they lear about horrors of Holocaust, or Gulags? How can they believe they will never repeat the most dreadful things imaginable, if they will never lear about them, and draw their own conclusions?

Should some real enemy ever rear his or her head- those people will just roll over and die, unable to comprehend...
And scariest thing out of all of that is: it doesn`t have to be Hitler, or Mao, or Stalin, or Pol Pot, or Gengis Khan, or other such dramatic example... All it`ll take is unfaithful spouse, a bully, a boss, who revels in little jabs and being mean to his employees- and those people will spiral down into madness or melancholy, unable to defend against the world, unable to armor themselves into "fuck`em" attitude...

This video is everything, thank you for the insight. I always felt like I was experiencing a backlash by raising unconventional ideas and that often left me feeling pretty lonely throughout my time in education. Now my 12 year old niece had to change schools because she began experiencing bullying for the same reason. How can we combat this? We won't all subscribe to the mainstream narrative and that should be normalized
Well if people want to get educated and involved in a cause they can but it need not be required curriculum imo. In Waterloo On. though for instance about four months ago a teacher and several students were stabbed by a former foreign exchange student angry a gender studies class was being taught but those students opted for that class and are all adults.
The younger generation is literally obsessed with labeling everything and everyone. Just creates separation.

its a backlash. Just like how Trumpism was a backlash to SJW culture, SJW culture was a backlash to the religious right, you know, the original SJW's that always said they were offended at the idea of gay people getting married on religious grounds.

I graduated from college in 2011, so I avoided most of the SJW culture. That being said, I do remember little bread crumbs of it creeping in around then. Not in an extremely noticeable way, but just enough to be able to recognize it as such.
Ah, I graduated from undergrad in 2013 and the trigger warning thing was seen as a joke at the time. Then I went to grad school in 2015 and was shocked at how sensitive my classmates were. I felt really disconnected from everyone at the time and thought that there must've been something wrong with me. Like, I really didn't understand why things were so different, so I came to the conclusion that maybe I was inherently evil or something since I couldn't agree with people on anything anymore. I was a hardcore Democrat at the time which is the weird thing. But even back then I felt kinda weird about going on marches because I felt like it was dangerous. And I did not support rioting and do support the police (most police officers are good, I believe). I was a victim of a violent crime when I was 9, so I've always seen the police as my heroes. I remember how safe I felt when I finally saw them as a child. Which is why I would disagree so much with the Left's ideas about the police that I just started to feel left out. IDK. Grad school was very lonely for me and my mental health took a turn for the worst.

I remember life before and after 9/11. My earliest memories did not include a war. These kids grew up with war as a part of life and yet they're softer than my generation who were still in school when the war began.
I was still in my 20s during the Lehman Brothers debacle. In truth that was the catalyst. The 2009 collapse destroyed any hope that young kids had in a comfortable future in this country.
completely agree, It pains me but I can see this in my younger brother(born after Sub-prime). Im a 00s kid and even though the 00s were filled with dark times, the 10s and 20s are actually horrible.

The university I graduated from only 1.5 months ago, at 28 years old, with a BA in Creative Writing, is polluted and sickly with that very concept. It is a fantastic school that I owe everything to. That being said, a ‘reasonable person standard’ does not exist there, only a culture of ‘callout’ and reporting professors for the way that they do their jobs if even one person feels perturbed. In short: ‘if you’re a republican, get the hell out of here because we coddle the left and dare anyone to defy us’. I saw it in classes, on campus, in university-wide announcements, in campus imagery (or lack thereof), and so on and so forth.
Discrimination and injustice… absolutely. I’ll stand right in line with minorities who claim and show that to me legitimately not abiding by ‘callout culture’.
But what’s happened is that these oppressive and discriminatory things existed for so long that now we’re swinging the pendulum back the other way even stronger in order to compensate which is no different and quite frankly disturbing. They think that the way through is to swing it back even harder the other way now? I could go on and on…
SJW culture starts in the home. With parents who never told them "No".
I’m a old SJW, my parents were extremely strict, my father (a Marine Vietnam vet) whooped our asses continually and we all are liberals. Keep listening to right wing propagandists and you’ll never know the truth.
We can't censor the truth just because it makes some people feel bad, we can't never condone destroying freedoms of speech because some people find offence in it.
The sjw want to warp your mind into believing the system is wrong and that your a victim, when no one is a victim or are oppressed in this country.
Jessica Fronts I can’t “censor truth” either. And you’re completely ass backwards. And it “doesn’t make me feel bad” one bit. 👌
Riley Hansler Nope, incredible for me!👍🏻
Bryan Adams Hey- happy to listen to you: what is the truth?
What I find particularly disturbing or troubling is that many of the same people who demand respect, who demand that you use "safe" words and language around them so that they are not "harmed" are often quick to call others "fucking Nazis" and other names. It appears that their concerns about feelings only goes one way; you must be very sensitive to their feelings but they don't have to have similar or any concerns about others and their feelings. "Safe spaces for me but none for thee."
The brilliance of the leftist modus operandi is that they call the group of leftist fascists ANTIFA. This is so they can virtue signal about how they're all against fascism, all the while being fascists. See Saul Alinsky Rules for Radicals.
@@pbaker7160 As John McWhorter - and a few others - have noted it's much like a religious sect with its view of sinners and sinned against. If you're sinned against, if you're a victim, then you have absolute moral authority. You cannot be challenged; you cannot even be questioned; and those who do so are driven out.
On the other hand, the US has a terrible, awful history of mistreating "the other", especially black men and women. History is, as William Faulkner pointed out, not dead, it's not even past. It's with us today and one of the best ways to argue against the left on these issues is to address the real injustices that have been done.
Good Point
This is what happens when you couple Narcissism with lack of empathy, something that is running rampant in this day and age. Social media is partly to blame, things like facebook, twitter, instagram, etc etc, they all basically promote a huge culture of narcissism.
Steven Galbraith I totally agree. The problem is also a lot of times these people are being fed these ideas at schools and universtities, some even at home. They are much like a religious cult. They also have, as I call it, a moral superiority complex, these people aren’t confronted enough with different view points and because they’re closed off they don’t tend to listen. Look at the debate between actual justice warrior and Hasan Piker, Hasan is literally closed off of every argument and point of AJW. Hasan is literally a fanatic.
I was a teen in the 90s. Went thru a whole goth phase. Massive idenity issue. Fast forward today you would never guess I went thru that. Social media wasnt really a thing then. Some would say oh you just conformed to what society wanted you to be. Looking back I had severe mental health that just didn't get treated. Who was I supposed to be. Where am I supposed to go. And I became the whole goth scene to belong somewhere to be something. And it was a lot of work to actually conform to that lifestyle. What changed me was moving around. Seeing alot of different people. Then I had children. And it was no longer about me. And I try to openly tell them what it was like to go thru that phase. That it never truely made me happy. Never treated what was really making me unhappy. So changing to extremes doesnt change how you feel. It obscures and distracts you from one simple point. We are all just a drop in the ocean. And your identity isnt as important in all that so I think you don't know who or what you're supposed to be because of that.
You hit on a key point that you had children and you realized “it was no longer about me.” I’ve been around for sixty three years and I have watched our society become more and more narcissistic, self indulgent. There’s enormous cultural pressure now to devalue having children which is a powerful (and the most important) biological function of a human being. This and other indulgences are destroying what it means to be a human being. This is not sustainable.
university work used to be safe and dull... now it's stressful and toxic... it's surprising that academics can tolerate it without having a breakdown. who would employ woke graduates?!

Between 1992 and 1999 there were some great bands. They came out and spoke a lot about the underdog - what it was like to be one - and that no one should have to be one. A lot of us rallied around it, not realizing it was nihilism hidden as anarchy and fighting any bully. I sure was one of those people. If you felt lyou had been mistreated, ignored, shamed, underestimated and underappreciated - then I was on your side and so was the music of the time.
Fast forward to 2021 - a lot of those bands promoting anarchy turned into "Just get the Jab!" groups.. that's their anarchy? Just do what the government says?
Then, for al ot of people, the nihilism ran its course, as it always will, and we all began to self-destruct with anxiety and suicides.
And now you have these SJW folks that are the extension of that period of time. But like many extensions, they are a caricature of the original intent.
As for me, I figured it out - Nihilism sucks. Reading from a weak loser script is where a lot of us start (as its the script that is handed to us) but a lot of us throw that script away, and grab something stronger and healthier...and then we evolve furhter, and grab something even stronger and healthier. Rinse, repeat as neeeded.
Don't fall for the nihilism in our society. It's not a hero's message. Don't fall for the endless dark depressing messages in everything these days.
Beauty IS. So are You.
That's actually a great point -- in recent years, we could ask someone about their opinion on one key political issue, and then we could predict their opinions on a wide range of other unrelated issues. It's almost as if the conspiracy people in the 80's/90's were right -- people were really being programmed.
At some point.. it will become our only reference to true reality.

When I ask them if they've made any complaints to the dean, ran it up the flagpole, etc. they always say that they simply can't. If tenured professors can't do anything about this without fear of repercussion, the only option we have is to try our best to stop it at the source.
It seems like the real problem is that nobody is willing to stand up against this. Maybe if professors tried to make a coordinated effort, it would be difficult to fire them all.
I’m on the left, but seeing people overreact, judging, making acquisitions, the left now isn’t the side I remember. We should want progress not a liberal dictatorship
Since you seem to be one of the few leftists remaining who is capable of being reasonable, what "progress" do you guys want at this point? We've already had a civil rights movement. The country may not be perfect and obviously there are things like prison reform, education reform, etc that can be improved, but women, minorities, gays, trans, etc all have equal rights under the law.
If you can't point out any specific laws or policies we should change that are actually racist or oppressing people, then the "progress" that the left seems to want is really just thought policing. It is not possible to force people to think the way you want them to without true oppression and authoritarianism. I'm genuinely trying to figure out what "progress" you are talking about because we're at a point where progressives have become incredibly regressive.
A liberal dictatorship is the only result of “progress” as professed by the left. That’s where we’re headed.
todd brown you literally missed every damn thing I said. I creaky said in this post I don’t like the censorship/ bullying on Twitter/ none of that
@@nappyheadedjosh6578 I didn't miss it at all I even said you seem capable of being reasonable so I wanted to hear what you meant. You said " We should want progress not a liberal dictatorship". I am asking you what does "progress" mean to you? You literally said we should want it but no one can ever explain what this "progress" is that we need? How do we progress from where we already are? You clearly consider yourself a progressive if you say "we should want progress", shouldn't you be able to tell me what that progress is that you desire?
@@toddbrown242 Left-Right distinctions are supposed to deal with economic issues, so the progress that most of us want has to do with decreasing inequality, enforcing living wage for full-time employment, removing the ridiculously oppressive system of health care being tied to employment (and thus giving employers far too much power over their employees), and a whole number of other issues of that sort. Basically at least reform capitalism to make it somewhat compatible with humanity. All the shit you're referring to is (in principle) not really a specifically left-right thing at all.
That left-right polarization increase during the 90s coincides with the change of news media turning to *for-profit.*

I’m a college student and I had a professor (in an acting class) who literally told a middle aged student that she was wrong for saying that she didn’t want to be reduced to the label of her skin color, age, religion, etc. this woman was told that she had no idea what it was like to be a non-white person in America, which is true. However, her point was completely twisted as possibly racist. The professor then proceeded to tell us about a book he read about racism. He seemed pretty proud of himself.
I recently left my entire social group behind and deleted all social media. Between cancel culture and virtue signaling I knew some pretty ugly-hearted , uncompassionate, judgemental, self-righteous people.

I was out of the U.S. for 20 years and recently came back. I think there's A LOT more going on than what people are discussing. Upon return to the U.S. I immediately noticed how rude and hateful so many people are; at the restaurant, stores, everywhere. I connect the rudeness to many things but high on the list is people are grumpy about being in a dead end job with lower pay than before. Looks to me like the country is gutted, millions of jobs were moved overseas and most people have no choice but to basically work like a slave--Wage Theft is a HUGE problem, something we cannot ignore. I don't see a middle class anymore, seems like 1 out of 10 people are upper class the other 9 are lower middle class or poor. I've noticed THE ONLY time someone is nice is when they're trying to sell me something that they'll get a commission for..beyond disturbing..see how the corporations have turned everybody into whores?
2nd, Facebook has ruined millions of peoples lives, yes, this is connected to SJW, it might be COMPLETELY SJW but no matter what Facebook, in my opinion, is WAY WAY more destructive than what most people imagine. I do know people that are on Facebook ALL DAY LONG. At home, work, when they go to the bathroom, while they eat, and even take it to bed with them. It's their one companion, one that has completely INDOCTRINATED them into one side of the story, all the while HATING on people on the other side of the story.
In short, I think the roots of all this hatred may go back many decades but once the technology really took off in the late 90's/early 00's the hatred went on steroids. The U.S. may have a high standard of living but is it something to brag about if most of the nation is full of angry, hateful, unhappy, obese, lower middle class, whores for the corporations.. AND extremely addicted to hate-filled Facebook etc?
Great points about FB. I've tried it a couple times. It doesn't take long to get sucked into the routine of looking at it every waking moment. Or feeling like an attention whore, by posting stuff. I also don't like how they seem to know everything i do online or through my cell... for the sake of advertising. It's pretty pathetic.

People used to laugh at me for being a centerist, when I told people stop picking one general side and start thinking on individual issues seperately instead. Group mentality is something we've not evolved out of from our time as tribespeople. It's time for humanity to start thinking like individuals instead of getting stuck in group-think
Honestly Roe v. Wade doomed any chance you ever see the large scale develop out of party mentality. Once Roe came out conservatives saw an opportunity to stick to an issue to gain power and the liberals adopted the opposite side for the same reasons. Look at how any major political appointment or election almost always hinges on this one topic. Politics has genuinely boiled down to this one issue as a whole.
thinking on individual issues doesn't necessarily lead to centrism, you can have disagreements with both parties but nevertheless a strong lean to one side, and "picking a side" and adopting all its positions without much consideration can also lead you to becoming a type of moderate. so they are two totally different things. the fact that the system is incapable of supporting more than two parties does obfuscate things and affects the way people think about how others think politically.

Feeling uncomfortable as a student in college classes empowers one to ask questions, contribute in study groups, learn from others, form opinions that shape their psychological belief system and interpersonal relatioinships. I did not take a stand on many topics because of either subject apathy or subject ignorance. It has taken over a dozen or more studious years to be able to speak on my beliefs about social issues. How are kids today picking a side so quickly? How are students choosing a side with so little life experience? And the big concern, why are students so eager to die on the sword defending a list of controversial points just because all of the points are popular to their causes narrative?

_Órale..._
As a former SJW, I must confess: I’m hella embarrassed for what I used to think as a college student from ‘04-‘08.
At the time, in a VERY subtle way, the concepts most SJWs have now adopted as pontificated doctrine were being introduced to us in bite-sized amounts.
Once placed on an aggregate score, it was easy to see this: that white men and white women were to blame for why things suck for minorities like me.
Because “the devil” was finally given a face and a name, it became easy to, as a collective, point to “the problem” and say “so THIS is why things have been so tough for me lately!”
Until you actually meet with and interact with “the devil” and you see he/she has a few demons of their own..
Growing out of this flawed logic, I learned one exceedingly important lesson: be prepared to accept that you, yourself, may be the maker of your own misery. And no one else.
Edit (5/22/2020): just wanted to add a few more things given the response this comment has received - being an SJW extremist is no less worse than being an extremist Alt-Right. These can BOTH be toxic in high doses.
My idealistic wish is for SJWs to realize they are anti-fragile (as Heidt’s book states). And that the last thing they need to be doing is hoisting blame on factors that are external to themselves. It’s amazing what one can achieve when they start to take responsibility for their own actions.
My idealistic wish for members of the Alt-Right is to remember that you lose nothing in quieting your own insecurities and concerns and take a moment to listen to the legitimate issues and set-backs minorities and other disenfranchised peoples of this nation have experienced over the years.
Everyone froths at the mouth and is ready to be on the defensive without even properly assessing whether an engagement with “the other side” will be an antagonistic one. It may very well be a productive disagreement if we all just let our fingers off the trigger for a moment.
That’s all.
So that's why SJWs have a huge hatred of white people, not just men but also women, too. They really wanted to save the minorities from discrimination only to focus on destroying the Western society for being too "problematic". I'm no expert at political biases but they wanted to ruin their own image just to prove their point.
They also ruined the entertainment industry as well by infiltrating the system and slip their agenda to prove that "all men are evil" and "women needs to be saved from a cruel man".
I'm not even an American but I feel sorry for the US for getting infected by their ideological views. I'm glad you escaped from the hands of "the Devil" who wanted not only to take over the world, but wanted the world to see them. So tell me, what's your justified reason of why white people should be blamed for all the minor's "problems"?
Mr. Friendship it’s easier to hoist responsibility in others before recognizing “The Enemy” is within.
That said, this doesn’t, incidentally, mean that institutionalized forms of systemic racism don’t exist. Far from it.
Example: the other day I went to my local jewelers to get my watch’s battery replaced. The jeweler is the kind of establishment where I need to be buzzed in in order to gain access.
The door had clear windows. And as I approached to ring the buzzer, I noticed an older couple walking towards this same door to leave. They seemed nice and cheery, so I smiled at them, as well.
As they opened the door to let themselves out and let me in, the FIRST words out of the woman accompanied by her male companion were “now no shoplifting today, got it!?” with a wag of her finger and a grin.
I was too shocked to even know how to respond.
Was it racist? Was it prejudicial? Could she have known I’m Hispanic? Was it the way I dressed? Is it the fact I’m young? Was she being prejudicial on the basis of my skin? My age? My appearance? My attire?
Was it even a funny joke?
Idk. A more charitable interpretation would be “it was just a poorly executed joke..” a more sensitive interpretation would be “it was a racist or, at the very least, a very prejudicial joke.”
I’m inclined to believe it was at least prejudicial. And THOSE kinds of things DO need to be stamped out.
They were white, btw.

Only a minute in, and I can tell Jonathan's got a better understanding of the whole timeline of this craziness than even Bret Weinstein, the former Evergreen professor. The only adjustment I would make to his timeline is putting the tipping point at 2011/2012 instead of 2014. The dying gasps of Occupy Wall Street is where we started seeing things like the progressive stack and public awareness of things like "privilege" and "it's not my responsibility to educate you."
Well I can tell you how it got mainstream. In 2002 the band weezer brought “Hipsters” out in fashion and just like every SJW, these Hipsters looked uniquely the same. They would have handlebar curled mustaches, plaid buttoned shirts, a skullcap, weird colored pants, and usually some sort of leather dress shoes on. They also had a ton of really shitty tattoos. All of their clothes looked like they were bought from Goodwill. These people were ABSURDLY and I mean ABSURDLY stuck up, they had this idea that they were original, artsy, and a gift to society. These people ended up evolving like Pokémon into the SJWs you see today.

SWJ started around the time of the George Zimmerman trail or verdict. There are times in American history where things happen and people feel the need to stand for something. Sometimes these stances become extreme. It’s almost like an over correction.
Everyone needs to listen to this guest. He has explained it very well. We all need to squash these cancel culture kids.
It began during the first two years of my undergrad degree. They began introducing "equality and diversity" and "social justice officers" into students unions, who were paid full time. I actually lapped a lot of it up at the time (mainly because I wanted to feel included and that is important for us as tribal/social animals). But in hindsight I realised that these people are mostly narcissistic, lacking in empathy and Machiavellian in nature. These are known as the dark triad traits, and you want to avoid people high in these as much as possible.
Something similar when I was in college. The idea it was 2014 is only half-accurate. 2010 was when it really began creeping in and by 2013, it had finally gone full-swing. 2014 is really where we start seeing it in the mainstream. I basically witnessed the rise and ideological evolution of the SJW mindset as college played out. It went from discouraging homophobia in the wake of the rash of suicides at the time (not a problem, hatred isn't good) to that crap about "cultural appropriation" halfway in (goodbye, Taco Tuesday... although they've since loosened up considerably on that in favor of "cultural celebration"), then full-Tumblr in the end. Obama gets all the rap when really he simply and unwittingly opened the floodgates for what is fortunately just a vocal minority when you actually look into it. The only problem comes from when politicians give them too much power by incorrectly assuming most think like this. Ditto with the Religious Right and their inverted view where they're a persecuted minority trying to "save" the majority. Most (like me) don't give a shit unless it actually affects others. Thomas Jefferson put it best: "That which does not pick my pocket nor break my leg serves as any injury to me." He said it about religion when defending the First Amendment, but on a personal scale applied it to many things. While some of their demands were fairly reasonable (same-sex marriage, legalizing cannabis, raising the minimum wage slightly in wealthier areas, etc.), it just wasn't and isn't enough for them and now the social insanity they want is driving the internet and most sane humans to the breaking point. Equality and equity are good. Diversity is good. Using it as an excuse to be a dick to others? Not good.

The SJW menace was already there fully formed when Gamergate began in 2014. I noticed the first rumblings of it in 2010-11
Younger people, especially nowadays, believe that they know everything just because we have access to the internet. I'm 20, so I fall into that category. I think people get under the impression that just because they are informed, that whatever they have to say on the matter is suddenly justified, even though most people only seem to inform themselves from biased sources to begin with. Just because one is "into politics", does not mean that they are inherently superior or correct on matters presented. In fact, a lot of the time people who get super invested in politics become so obsessed with it that they start to lose sight of different perspectives entirely. It is really sad to see, but I always appreciate when I meet people who are open minded and willing to accept criticism. I am still personally working on that, because I know that I am young. As much as I have learned, and as much as I know, there is still always more to be learned about other people. I try very hard not to get lost in that desire to know everything and be objectively correct all the time. It is ok to not know things, it is ok to realize that you don't have all the answers. That's what talking to other people, and listening is for.

"Because you don't get credit for that." It just clicked in my mind, a quiet chat about something doesn't go around the news, kids want attention. I'm an 18 year old who has been reported twice in my college, and I didnt even know until recently when chatting to a member of staff 😂 I got the information about the reports and it was little jokes and shit that cannot possibly offend anyone, but you have that hero kid that needs to stand up for the little guy that isnt even there, deal with the evil and then get the news around that they have slain the beast. It's based in attention seeking, which i find rediculous in 18 year olds, grow up.
just get a gun.
The same generation that laughs at "Karen" for complaining obnoxiously, also complain obnoxiously.
underrated comment.

That your way of telling your critics to shut up? Being a whiney SJW causes real world problems for people, that's why people complain about Karens....point out the craziness.
Can you imagine in a few decades there will be hoards of Karens roaming the streets?!! There will be no escape!!
I've noticed that a few feminists think the Karen meme is sexist. Might it be the case that soon gen z won't be too fond of feminism? I think that's what is happening slowly.
If "shoot me now" is an unacceptable figure of speech to a degree that requires a reprimand, and change, then you're finished. Seriously. You're done.
Thats because they have seen people shoot themselves
@bruce wayne just because its offending you does not make it not a freedom of speech. Are you kidding me? This is the exact ideology this video is talking about. Like what Jordan Peterson said, "In order to think you have to risk of being offensive." Hopefully you will understand after this comment.
@bruce wayne this generation has the same view of shooting or perhaps better. vietnam war effected people. we’re in the softest generation
Like Rogan said, the student should have just told the professor they didn't like the comment and felt it was inappropriate. I can imagine someone who lost a friend or family member would have trouble taking the comment in the spirit intended.
@@76shian u alright there buddy. did these people offended go to a war too see someone get shot. the only reason that person called the teacher is clout, if ur offended that easily of that phrase you probably never even heard a gun shot. it’s always the most protected self righteous kids in society that do this. ffs hate commenting on yt to people who can’t think for themselves or leave vague vague replies so u don’t know what they mean
His time frame on when it started is completely wrong. I can remember in 2011 and 2012 when people were screaming about micro aggressions and everything else. Even in 2011 during occupy Wall Street I knew college professors that gave excused absences and some even gave automatic As for students that missed class to be there.
16:15 that's only one explanation.
another explanation is that the two sides have been becoming so extreme and outlandish in their beliefs that it's completely reasonable for any rational person to call out the more extreme bs and keep things within bounds... and that's a healthy thing to do. imagine if more people spoke up while nazis were rising or communists were rising.
: Call-out culture is what used to be called "telling", and most everyone couldn't stand the kids who told on everyone for everything. And frequently those kids made everything up to tell.
Marius Riley I grew up in Northern Ireland. People who told on others were called touts. Touts would be shunned, beaten up. Touts to the police would be shot.
Snitches end up with stitches...

He's right that it blows up in 2014, but it definitely existed before 2014
1930's Frankfurt Germany for the birthdate.
Definitely
It blew up after 2014 after certain billionaires infused a lot of money via their NGO's to help spread the "movement" and propaganda.
He said it blew up in 2015 but your right
