      @@menace2societies It means that if as an artist, whether that be a writer or a painter or a film maker, if no one is upset with your work, you haven't made anything worth your while. You haven't changed anything, you've just ridden the wave of the status quo. "Agreeable" is a great quality to have if you're a diplomat. It's a terrible quality to have if you're an artist.
      This is getting into the "no true Scotsman" fallacy, because it's not an objective truth that an artist has to push boundaries. Agreeable, pleasant art is a huge industry, and many people earn a crust off of sanitized, bland, and "appropriate" art.

    FIGHT CLUB is Chuck Palahniuk's first novel. It became a David Fincher movie years later. Why are all of you talking about a movie when he's clearly talking about his novel. Which was more nuanced and definitely more provactive - the original scene in the novel, Tyler first appears on a nude beach, building a huge structure of driftwood for hours, so that for one whole minute - one perfect "moment" - the structure cast a shadow of a huge hand in the sand, and Tyler sat in it's palm for the whole minute - a moment of perfection is the only worthwhile pursuit.

    I forget which comedian said it, but he described being booed off stage early in his career and he said it was the best thing that could have happened to him. "The thing I fear the most just happened, and I'm still here. I'm still okay. After that I had no more fear. Because I had experienced the worst possible thing. And it wasn't that bad."

    I think this guy is half right. The reason kids want a person they "respect" is because their parents failed to be that person (especially the dad) and so the kids have grown up with no mentor and no good example of authority. As they become adults, the lack of mentorship and good authority has made them disillusioned and angry as they enter adulthood because they have NO sense of _direction_ or _model_ to follow as adults (which they feel society is responsible for because they've been taught that government raises you via school) so when professors who are mearly "teachers" come along and give them the first hard assignments and deadlines of their lives they not only lack the motivation but also the respect for the authority of professor who is thrusting work upon them.
    They don't have an inspiring reason why they're there and are really looking for an example and mentor of maturity they didn't get as children and still don't have as adults. As a result, they don't value education and they don't respect their professors so they bully them and attempt to set up a misguided "order" in their lives (which they were never given a clear one from their parents) in the form of political correctness. This makes them _feel_ as though they are being *mature and achieving something meaningful* - the first thing they didn't receive from their parents and the second as a stand in for aimlessly attending college

    • @duderama6750
      @duderama6750 Před 2 lety +2

      You're only half right. Teens reject parental authority for many reasons, a big one is media constantly pushing the idea that your parents are wrong. Fight Club is a good example.
      Up until modern times, children (not "kids", that's a modern masonic term) were educated by their parents, and mostly followed them in their field, i.e. sons became farmers or carpenters like their fathers, daughters became mothers.
      The modern world has slowly usurped parental influence and replaced it with myths about money and success. Women have been tricked into the idea that the only way to be a complete woman is to be a man as well. Motherhood is the most sacred duty of a woman, yet women's lib has cheapened it. They make mothers seem inadequate if they don't double down and be the father too.
      Women's lib is a con, women were happier before they bought that crap about money and respect.
      Rich people are the saddest losers in society, because nothing is ever enough. They can only lust after the money they don't have.
