It's seems to be the age of the activist, with their constant protests - they seem to be driving all the conversations around policy, culture, stories, and more. But in their zest to get their messaging across activists are disrupting businesses, travel, and calling large amounts of vandalization. This strategy is clearly hurting the causes they are fighting for and yet they will refuse to stop.
But why?

They will never stop because it's a replacement religion, and each new set of activists tries to outdo the last set in terms of proving their "faith" to their "God."
The point at which they will start killing in the name of their replacement deity is not very far away, now, and if all of the circumstantial evidence is in the indication, the (transgender) female who shot up the Tennessee Christian School is one of the first suicide bombers in their belief system.
Activism is the lowest of life's callings.
you are missing one point.
They are mostly paid actors.
Greetings go out to the back office and the german Familienministerium.
Remember when it all started? 2008 occupy wallstreet ended quickly.
Excellent video!
What they really are is covert narcissists who are trying to manipulate everyone to treat them as their false self.
They do evil in the name of good thinking they can just pull the wool over everyones eyes, anyone who allows these horrible people to spew their evil is just as bad as them.
"I blocked traffic and stopped a woman from getting to the hospital, thus paralyzing her, but you're heartless because you made me think about it." Selfishness is a huge factor in why the west absolutely sucks now.
They're painting themselves as targets for when the power grid goes out.
@theguybehindyou I doubt they’d last more than a month, remember how their Chad utopia went? Their selfish behavior is the big factor they don’t understand how to work as a team player. They want a role but when a role that is needed that is presented, well, they reject it to go on another tirade.
Basically the generation of "EVERYONE STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND MAKE A YEAR DEDICATED TO MY PERSONAL IDENTITY"
That is the reason why many people from the west are now converted too Islam.
I can't believe that actually happened.
I noticed a while back that the woke activists have a lot of hatred in their hearts. How else can you explain wishing someone to rot in hell because they don't agree with your political views?
These are largely unmarried women.
The hatred comes from denying their own innate biological purpose. The one thing that gives women ultimate satisfaction and accomplishment. They literally don't know what else to do with their lives.
@@Vid7872 agreed. They are very mentally/emotionally unstable people.
I wish exactly that on all Socialists and I would be 100% willing to personally send them there.
An ideology that's responsible for the most tyrannical regimes we've ever seen an a body count of well over 100.000.000 in the past 100 years doesn't deserve any sympathy and its followers don't deserve any mercy, the only feeling these things should evoke is deep contempt. They are enemies and should be treated as such.
Anger not hatred
Because to the activist, challenging their political views is like drawing a representation of the prophet sucking a fat dong for a follower of Islam, or burning Jesus in effigy to a Christian.
“Activists don’t want to engage in conversation, they want to engage in moral bullying” perfectly sums it up. Excellent video 👏🏻
Yep that's the point.
That’s why they will always lose. They will never win. We have the truth and common sense. They don’t.
It's the same on every side, that's how you get counter-counter-protests. Very rarely do I see a protest, or response to a protest, that's actually creative or constructive.
Pretty much, thats why the ”give me the definition” shtick happened, they dont want conversations, they want gotcha moments and ”owning” people, they act like children on a playground with how they argue
yes its more im right and your wrong. im an activist myself but these wokeness is stupidity itself. everyone knows these issues. but when you gotta call yourself "woke" to rise above everybody else. yet act stupid.
We went from "don't look at me as a victim" to "Please look at me I'm a victim!"
It's actually "Praise me or face the consequences" now
As a POC, it's the same in the black community. So many people feel sorry for themselves and resort to race baiting. Unfortunately, the woke culture encourages it. It continues to create division and holds people back.
My heart breaks for the paralyzed woman who couldn't get to the hospital yet that woman thinks she has the moral high ground.
"How DARE you question my activism! My heart was in the right place, so it doesn't matter if someone got hurt!"
@@greghannibal stop the World I want to get off.
@@greghannibal That's exactly how they think.
Those activists are very lucky their government is what it is. In America, the civil lawsuit would bankrupt every one of them for the rest of their lives, as all of any wages they ever had would be garnished to cover the award for what they did to that poor woman.
"If anyone injures his neighbor, as he has done it shall be done to him, fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; whatever injury he has given a person shall be given to him."
She called a newscaster heartless because he’s concerned that your actions have directly led to someone’s paralysis. This is nothing short of an absolute mental disease.
Literal brain worms. Huffed one too many cat's arse.
Notice how she brought her intentions rather than the end result
Tbh, part of me wishes that the ambulance simply drove through the protesters without stopping.
@@gaving.griffon2703All of me wishes that.
@@bhante1345south park?
Wow she immediately started talking about her crap and did not even express remorse for paralyzing that woman by blocking traffic to the hospital. DISGUSTING ! Grow up perpetual victims !!
I share in your disgust. I really hope she faces some sort of karmic justice to her own health. On a side note,my favorite genre of music is grunge. Lol
well actually....they kinda can't grow up....that's most of the problem.
I think she does feel some sort of remorse but she is too scared to express it and thereby accepting that she is to blame for having crippled a human being indefinitely. The cause of those activists are noble but what they are doing to achieve their goals results in terrible consequences. Sometimes the best intentions lead to the worst outcomes.
I really wish the best for the paralyzed woman and that those activists will see that they cause real harm to the people with their actions so that they don't ever repeat those mistakes ever again.
The activists should really just let ambulances and people in emergencies pass through instead of stopping them.
On a side note: In my country those activists that glue themselves on the road even get a salary from their organization which is really disturbing.
@@elpenguinotierno6238then that organisation is the real problem and these easily impressionable children are nothing but pawns.
They think they're open minded but they're locked in a cage.
The problem with activism is that, once you get what you ask for, you have nothing left to distract you from your actual problems.
So, they move on to a new grift. A new "problem" to tackle. It's an endless cycle of banging your fist against society until society either takes pity on them, or their fist starts to bleed.
It's an insidious type of religion that can not substitute an actual honest living.
I've heard people argue that this is what's happening to the gay community. Gay rights were achieved, but the energy remained so the focus went onto trans rights, then trans children's rights, and they need to keep finding things to fight for, because the majority of gay people living in the western world are just living normally. So you frame "drag is not child friendly" as "drag queens are being banned, they're stripping gay rights away", and "children shouldn't be allowed to medically transition" gets framed as "trans rights are being taken away". They have to reframe and exaggerate the problems that are going on, because they can no longer direct it towards actual discrimination that gay people face - gay people can get married, are not discriminated in the workplace (they are in fact a protected demographic now), they can adopt, own houses, run for president etc etc. There's nothing big and meaningful left to fight for anymore, but that energy is still there so gets directed towards something else.
Real
@@thomaskim2159
Grifting these days is often applied to people like Vaush, individuals who say they believe in a cause but rhen either abandon or move on from it when it's politically, socially, etc. convenient.
Because they don’t want to live an honest life. That’s what they’re trying to avoid by distracting themselves with their activism nonsense
Well you just start up a new rights movement for some other marginalized population.
The activist asked if the journalist was heartless after telling her she directly paralyzed a woman. She should be in prison. This isn't funny anymore, wtf are the authorities even doing
They won't stop until they ARE stopped. The quicker people realize this, the quicker these things will be sorted out. People in the roads are warned to stay out of roads for a reason. It's simple math.
They won't stop until they are put in solitary confinement for life
If you can convince people to believe lies, you can convince them to commit atrocities.
The authorities want this to happen. These freaks are their pawns.
@@yagamifire7861 and it will get worse
As a former activist I can tell you that there are two main types. The first are people who genuinely want to help. These people, myself included, either wise up and distance themselves or get bullied out by the second kind. Said second kind are just there for how it makes them feel. Strong, justified, smug, powerful, doesn't matter. What matters is that it's selfish and self centered so the cause doesn't matter, what matters is that they get to act like utter jack wagons and pretend like they are in the right for doing so
As a current activist I just want to get away with violence and property damage. You're welcome
So true. Activists are like the old prudish religious people who would go to church, but would spend their time judging others and telling others how evil they are.
💯
Activism, by its nature, attracts the second kind. I'm a conservationist, I believe in preserving habitat and preventing extinction of native species. I don't stand in front of traffic to achieve this, I plant trees, clear weeds, pick up rubbish, etc.
They are narcissists. A special type too: communal narcissists. Dr Ramani did a good series on narcissism. That's how I know.
As a son to a paralyzed mother, the problems she and I have to face on a regular basis, there are no words to describe how much she suffers in silence and how much it changed my life as a kid. I would not wish that to happen to my worst enemies. In our case, it was the doctor's mistake. but that woman is paralyzed because a bunch of idiots wanted to create a scene in public. I hope all of them realize that they ruined a family for lifetime.
They do, and they are happy to have done so.
"To be successful in a career, it requires commitment, hard work, self investment, education, negotiation and more. But to be a successful activist, all it takes is a willingness to show up and shout the enemy down." -> Very good summary of the brilliant Baggage Claim.
As a Nigerian-immigrant in the west, my opinion is that they won't stop because progressivism(cultural marxism) is an ideology and religion. Due to how privileged and safe the west is, many of the left (especially the urban and young ones) are without struggle and purpose. So being radical and disruptive is the only way they fill this void. Even those in the west who actually would benefit from activism end up being harm d by it because of these radicals e.g. Black Americans who largely opposed the BLM riots that led to lootings, killings and destruction of their neighborhoods.
💯
Agreed!
Ja. They do Not need to worry about survival(eating, shelter, being too hot/cold) & do Not appreciate the society that gives Them this...sad really.
@@nerhu59 Good times creates weak men, and Weak men create hard times: Weak men times.
How is west privileged and safe for average American? How privileged are LGBTQ or POC people in comparison to rich people? Who is safe.
Narcissistic personality disorder definitely plays a large role in what we're seeing.
Not a disorder. Just plain old narcissism
Borderline and histrionic, also.
Narcissistic Personality Disorder + Munchausen By Proxy
It's planet whacko out there. I live so far away from this mess, it really does seem like i am looking in to a different planet, or some weird alternate reality through a looking glass. Insane shit.
Or manifesting a personality disorder to be special.
Bottom line: These are miserable people who want to be part of something bigger. Even if it doesn’t make sense, the feeling of belonging to a group gives them some type of purpose in life. I blame social media personally
This is why we should revitalize church going in the culture. A healthy community and productive members of society
This is what happens when actions don't have consequences. There was a time you got beat up and or end up in jail for doing these kind of things.
yup 100% hell even in my early lifetime early 00s if you tried to do this road blocking for any reason the Police would roll up and Batton charge the people off the road and would be applauded by everyone else
Newton is spinning in his grave right now
This what happens when women run things, all emotions, no discipline and no check on irrational behavior. You can't beat up women, can you?
As a member of gen Z, I am also extremely tired of a percentage of my generation foolishly thinking it's basically trendy to either be a self-righteous wannabe-marxist revolutionary who thinks they are the next MLK or Rosa Parks, or to be a wannabe-'victim' at all costs while paradoxically harping on about how strong and independent they are
Same here and this is why I'm apolitical especially since I can get very stressed in matters like politics.
I feel like 2016 scared silicon valley so they basically rig algorithms to manipulate the Gen Z generation. Luckily though I'm seeing more and more of that generation recognize and resist it
The second description literally sums up Schroedinger’s feminism.
Watamote is a very fitting pop for this comment
i mean all these collaged together demonstrations weren't related to socialism at all, and i don't think it's revolutionary to be anti oil and coal, or anti-transphobia. Also doesn't an old book somewhere state you should be in kitchen right now then on here voicing your opinion?
Those activists don't care about the actual causes they claim to fight for. They've been conditioned that protesting brings rewards for very little risk, so it became a method for competing for status. It's all a bid for power.
Marxism at its finest.
I notice that the UK protects many of these violent activists. If you look at videos from across Europe, when activists glue themselves to the road to stop traffic, the Italian and French people get out of their cars and drag them away. The UK police protect the disrupters from people like the man driving his sick mother to the hospital. Perhaps allowing regular working folks more latitude to deal with these antisocial individuals it might be a good lesson.
They don’t care because they are mentally ill.Half of the U.S is severely mentally I’ll.Total social breakdown and this country is going to shot.It’s official that those activists have shit for brains
"It's all a bid for power."
Just like when kings used to give up their younger sons to the clergy in exchange for their favor.
Agree, it’s all about them, self fulfillment, self satisfaction, not the actual course.
This is a fantastic video, and I love the balanced perspective you bring. I've never how the loss of a local community could affect an individual so much
This is the first time I've heard someone other than myself point out that you CAN'T disagree with someone who derives their sense of personal value from the positions they hold because if you do you're denying their value. It's going to be recieved as a personal attack.
I used to be woke in high school. It’s scary how much it’s pushed on young people. I was drawn to it because it gave me a reason to be angry and a reason to dislike people. It’s just a way for people to be hateful
Makes me glad I didn't have to deal with that shit in high school. Class of 2011..
There were people who were gay but they weren't pricks like these activists.
And people said edgy jokes that would get people canceled today.
It's a TWO MINUTE HATE. :)
I don’t understand why anyone would even want a reason to be angry or hate something. I’m not saying everyone doesn’t have dislikes but looking/wanting something to be mad at, seems like a very sad existence.
1984. Orwell. Who's the enemy today?
People who have jobs, who have no money, who live by the paycheck, who have a family to look after, pets, friends, neighbours, hobbies, they do not have time for protest. The absence of any responsibility is what drives most pf these people. In fact, they refuse to take any personal responsibility. The Old West called it a Clown Posse.
They fire a gun and whatever the bullet hits is claimed as the intended target all along.
@@catgiles3268 not a definitive answer, but part of it can be attributed to being socially maladjusted. People who don't feel like they fit in yet see everyone else talking and having fun just by being "normal" while they struggle to simply ask a new classmate their name. They spiral down into that headspace where they seek out every possible reason to explain why only they are alone. Just easy to blame an external factor and try everything to run it down than to build oneself to be outgoing and more calibrated.
Here is the real reason they will never stop: They aren’t facing real world consequences.
Police protect them from harm and DAs won't press charges.
100 % if they got grounded by their parents, lost their jobs or had to pay for the damage they did…it would definitely discourage this behavior.
Jobless behaviour indeed
As Mike Tyson said "Social media made you all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it"
You are indeed very correct. Our democratic ideals which give everyone the ‘right’ to do and say as they believe without consequence is at the core of our Western issues and crumbling society.
I watched the latest podcast you did with the critical drinker and just wanted to say that all of your comments were very insightful; to the extent that at times the others did not know how to follow them up, but just wanted to let you know your efforts are appreciated. Thank you very much for what you do!
As a man, it is extremely refreshing to hear women who realize the absolute insanity that is the woke community. Thank you for this video!
the woke community 🤓
Dated a girl who’s friend began lecturing me on “toxic masculinity” and “white privilege” I began to ask her questions that made her explain her beliefs further and give me more insight as to why she believed what she did, I was deemed a threat and she convinced my gf that I was some kind of abuser for it… they destroyed all the gods and institutions and built their own
Projection your biologically superior to her via nature her argument is with nature
NPC behavior😂
If your girlfriend's friends are badmouthing you tell her she can drop her friends or you. No exceptions. If she says that's controlling say it's a boundary you won't budge on. It'll save you trouble in the long run
Do these wokies talking about white privilege know that most Africans do not support gender ideology and view it as a form of western imperialism? Nothing reeks more of real white privilege than woke college kids from San Francisco who can't find most major African countries on the map, yet talk about racism and black people 24/7, without any profound interest in them.
@@user-kz9ii2jk6y If she says that's controlling the reason could be that it is.
OP should spend more time explaining her GF *why* he thinks that friend isn't good for her.
“Someone who is narcissistic wants unearned social status.” - Dr. Jordan Peterson
They don't just want it; they think that having to work and earn anything is "oppression". They refuse to exit childhood!
Activism is a way for useless people to feel important, even if the consequences of their activism are counterproductive for those they claim to be helping.

They're not activists. They're attention seekers at best. At worst they're vandals and hostage-takers. They're also immune from personal responsibility.
they need to be forced to take responsibility. Society needs to get rid of these people, force them into exile and obscurity If not that than worse.
So they're nothing but spawns of the devil? Of course they are.
Indeed. They should be punished.
They’re children: immature and selfish. All that matters is them and what revolves around them. They would never sacrifice for anyone.
me when i make things up to suit my invented world in my head:
A pastor told me once that forgiveness doesn't mean acceptance. If I kept blaming all the people that hurt me, then I was giving away my power to those people. I had brought 3 pages of the traumas I had written down to show him because I wanted him to know who I was. He refused to read them, which totally pissed me off. But when I realized that those pages were not "who I am," it changed everything. I was yelling to the world, "I'm not a victim," while blaming my issues on other people. People who got to live, rent free, in my head. People who controlled my life and didn't care or feel any pain from my hating them. It was ruining my life, and they didn't even know. I stopped giving my time to toxic people and truly learned to forgive. It was so freeing I can't even describe it.
and you let them get away scott free. proving once again christianity is a plausible deniability propoganda machine that stops the poor from killing the rich.
Despicable people. Once they get called out on their BS, the only thing they can do is try to present as a victim.
Or scream like a banshee
These activists have been in the pipeline since the 2010s and education system still churns them out
Good thing Imagi Studios shut down pre-woke days…
and the people who taught them came from the 70's got jobs in the 90's and flue under the radar until now.
Nah we've had climate pawns ever since I can remember. Swampy back in the 90s for one. The climate myth has been a profitable lie for many many years now...
This shit has been going on WAY BEFORE the 2010s. This shit has already been going on for decades on the West Coast, but it was mostly contained there until it spread throughout the country and the world. It’s called the land of nuts and fruits for a reason.
most of it started with the hippie movement of the 60's & 70's.
I love how they clame to be against violence while actively calling for violence.
"Terrorism - using violence or threats of violence to achieve political goals."
It is a classic.
"Let's fix society by getting rid of all we don't want in it".
The nazis were really big on this before the woke people started to be the biggest supporters.
It is telling that the people who complain that any push back or discussion on their ideas that's not 100% positive reinforcement is violence's first response is to call for violence, they are pre-setting the scene up for their response because now we have framed it as proportional.
They're all ignorant, braindead, hypocritical NPCs
Feminism made them believe that any one of their number can pick up a gun and somehow win a civil war against Men. 😂

I would like to see a world where all these young people devote their time and energy to learning skills, playing music instruments, painting, doing sports, helping community, volunteering....
When I was that young we went climbing mountains and then we did a public photo lecture about our trip where we collected money with which we bought blankets and food for an animal shelter. We didn't change the world, but we contributed a little something to the community around us... ❤
If these activists wanted to actually protest, shouldn't they be doing it to lawmakers or influencial rich people? Why are they protesting at a billiards match?
*cough* snooker *cough*
Because its easier for them to access
Deep down, they don’t really care about these causes. They just want to make themselves “look good” for their peers and social media followers. They’re a bunch of bored narcissists who have a pathological need for attention.

Protesting is saying that there’s something wrong with the world and not with me. It’s deflection. I used to be a vegan activist (cringe) and went to a few “demonstrations”. At that time in my life, late teens early twenties, I felt so lost, lonely, insecure, depressed. But instead of focusing my energy on improving myself and my circumstances I would focus my attention on “saving the world”. It was definitely a form of escapism so I wouldn’t have to face what was going on in my life. I remember going to those demonstrations hoping to get some meaning and purpose from them but I never did. In fact, when I was “protesting”, that’s when I felt the most empty and lost. I remember driving home from the protests wondering why I felt so anxious and empty whilst I was there. At 26 I’m so much happier. I got saved, got married, started eating meat again, no longer an environmentalist either. I’m sooooo much happier and healthier. Glad to be done with that stage of my life.

The Most Awesomest Comment I've Read Here.
"WhilST"??
Pampered Brit.
Did it ever occur to you that the world would be a BETTER PLACE if you voluntarily "deleted" yourself? It would solve every problem you have, and some of the world's problems, too.
Sin never dies. You are not a reformed activist. You are not cured. Activism is forever. Activism is a seed of pride and it comes from Satan himself, and you are Satan's daughter, now and forever. Pride is forever. One day you will learn that.
Your comment made my day.
My brother and I always say that those kids are just looking for an "I have a dream" moment
They want to bind themselves to history because of a deep rooted fear of being forgotten
Im 63 and found my meaning early in life by building.
Working everyday making, repairing, building for myself and helping others have a better life has and still is giving me the greatest satisfaction.
3 type of people in this world. Those who make, Those who break and Those who watch it happen.
As a society, we promoted feelings over thinking for so long, that we now find ourselves confusing feelings as thinking. God help us.

Correction: US pushed their mental illness to the rest of the world because they don’t have universal healthcare.
No one is truly governed by facts, thinking, and logic. We are all governed by emotion. That's just human nature. Emotions are what compel us to act. Even if a person was entirely governed by rational and logical thinking, there would have to be something emotional guiding them to do that in the first place. The difference is that previous generations learned to discipline and properly channel their emotions, while recent generations have been encouraged to let their emotions run wild.
@@NoLongerNeedThis
The diffrenece is that some people today try think everything through feelings, so their blind to everything, but their low iq, so they do it, while other people think through logic, so thats why they stay much smarter and less angrier.
Thank you for this. It is becoming so uncommon for people to address these topics without being immediately called out as either racist, misogynistic, or transphobic. We all want the same, but how we think it should be achieved is different.
reason they start screaming nonsense is because of the Communist influence....first rule in the communist hand book always try to Association the opposition with a group or ideology the general public has a negative view of ...just look into who started the lgbtq+ movement they all support Marxist ideology promote the normalization of pedophilia

They don’t care! These people don’t argue in good faith. They never have and never will. Using buzzwords to silence opposition is literally out of the communist playbook.
The super activist community reminds me greatly of the story of spec ops: the line, someone tries to be a hero by forcing their way to the top of the food chain and rationalising their bad deeds as necessary evils or ignoring them outright, only for the truth to come crashing down on them, and they either realise they aren’t the good guy, or become the villain they sought to destroy
10:21 this one really takes the cake. She's the Just Stop Oil girl and now she's complaining about the cost of living crisis brought forth by a scarcity in fuel. She's not just grandstanding on one position, she's grandstanding on two conflicting positions at the same time.
Most of them are hypocrites and heartless. Stopping an ambulance trying to get to the hospital to save a patient, and now as a consequence of their despicable actions leave that patient permanently disabled. Absolutely disgusting. Running up behind the bride and groom and throwing orange confetti, but then proceed to hop on a plane here there and everywhere. Hypocrite. Dare disagree or have any opposing view, they have a meltdown and tantrum and demand that you unfriend them on social media LOL.
interfering with any ambulance should be immediate jail time, no exceptions, no court trial, no defense allowed.. you block it, you lose your rights. period. caught on video? immediate arrest, any anyone interfering with that arrest, they are arrested for RIOTING and illegal assembly!

There should be no such thing as a professional activist. A professional activist is the same thing as a career politician. They LIVE to create problems so they can exist.
At least politicians are still have a function even when things are going right. An activist's purpose vanishes when the problem's resolved, full-stop.

I've worked as a contractor to a mid size government agency and know how many competent and real 'civil servants' there actually are. I also understand how government employees value hard earned tax payer money. The vast majority of our huge beast of a government now exists to serve themselves!
@rollinrat4850 bloated and incompetent as they are, govt offices still COULD have an important purpose when all is going well. Creating more problems to profit from them is a defect, and not every govt worker would be redundant or useless in good times. Arguably, some offices are even necessary to keep good times going.
Compare this to a career activist, who has a purpose ONLY when there are problems. Their livelihood depends entirely on the continued existence of those problems. They exist to "combat" problems that can and should be eradicated, but not to actually run the systems that would survive the problem's resolution and ensure things function smoothly.
But yeah, both groups def have a perverse incentive to make things worse for everyone around em.
@@blackosprey2219 Coulda, shoulda, woulda are poor excuses in my opinion. I have zero faith in my government that I've paid far more than my fair share, for decades.
It's far too large, wasteful, weaponized and incompetent against the very people who fund it.
Ideals are one thing, but reality is entirely different.
Glad someone made a video putting into public speech all the things I’ve been trying to say for years. Society will never progress until ideas are allowed to be challenged by all people and we collectively think critically and question everything before making decisions.
Narcissists, at least a lot of them.
What are the symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder? Sense of self-importance, entitlement, interpersonally exploitative for their own gain, lack of empathy, inflated Ego, few boundaries.
My mother had two terrible strokes years ago. Fortunately she was able to receive help quickly and regained her speech and use of her body. I can't imagine the pain and anger if protestors had got in the way of her receiving help. God help that family :(
All I know is if they did that to my family I’d be in jail and they’d be collected evidence

I'll say this: these kids' parents should be putting a stop to their behavior before it escalates to this level, but they're just letting it happen.
Standing in the way of children's self-realization in any way is considered immoral today
The parents are of the same mind or just don’t care about their kids!
The parents are probably absent, if not physically then certainly intellectually, and have relied on tablets and mobile phones to keep their kids from bothering them by unwittingly outsourcing the moral upbringing of their children to some echo chamber full of randos.
Kids? Kids are younger than 12, i am sorry. These people are adults and we have to judge their behaviour by adults standards
They are not kids... and even if they are not legal adults yet, if you haven't turned out a proper citizen of a child by the time they are 16, its over

I've been reading Frank Herbert's Dune saga and one of the blurbs at the beginning of a chapter in Heretics of Dune I think sums up a lot of this very well. "In my estimation, more misery has been created by reformers than by any other force in human history. Show me someone who says, "Something must be done!" and I will show you a head full of vicious intentions that have no other outlet. What we must strive for always! is to find the natural flow and go with it." -Frank Herbert

the real reason why it will never stop is because several Governments are supporting this and refusing to prosecute these people if they wanted to in 1 day this nonsense could be stopped like the road blocking
if the Police were allowed to show up and Batton Charge these people off the road that would quickly stop this silliness and before anyone screams at me these people do not have a legal right to do what they are doing and thus the Police are allowed to use force to move them

Nowadays, I can barely stand being on FB because my peers are like a hive-mind full in the midst of the most brain-killing groupthink. If friend B notices that Random Person C has said something outside of orthodox friend B will go through all the mutual friends of B and C and call them out to drop being friends with C. You must be 200% adherent to the outrage of the day. You can't even express anything that might even attempt to understand where the new enemy is coming from.
I rarely use any more social media because it's too hostile, these people have nothing interesting to say. I also live in Chicago still, and the city is in free-fall (and has been), but you can't criticize the politician these people all back because that makes you a theocracy-supporting bigot.
These newer generation of people are just as obnoxious (if not more) than I found the Baby Boomers to be 30 years ago, hysterical, anti-historian cliche-spouters.
My father is a pastor and has said from behind the pulpit in a sermon once that “The quickest way to get someone to turn against your beliefs is to shove them down their throat.” Granted, in context he was talking about how being a jerk in Christian beliefs would do just that. But that statement can be perfectly applied to these people. They rant and rave about this or that problem, but then turn around and wonder why so many people do not like/do not agree with them.
Violent people like violence though, even inflicted apon themselves. Many of these activists are intentionally baiting violence, they want a fight to break out to further grandstand.

If you can attain ultimate moral superiority while satisfying all your darkest wishes to lash out at people, all without ever taking an ounce of responsibility or being required to work hard to become a truly moral and upright person… that’s quite an alluring option for the darkest part of our shared human nature.
When the entire economic elite supports your cause, it means you're not a rebel.
In means you're just a pawn in their game.
Actual rebels aren't glamorised or supported by the establishment.
Actual rebels are consistently slandered as "extremists", "terrorists", "bigots".
Does that mean Jordan Peterson is punk?
I don't know how society still allows these people to do whatever they want without any consequences. If my mother was in that ambulance and these crazy people don't allow us to pass, this was going to be the worst day they have ever had, no matter what. If a crazy woman attacks me and my wife during our wedding, oh God, I will respond. Action = reaction!
The same people who fund these groups also pays off the people who protect them. It's disgusting how out in the open it all is yet how we do nothing to stop the top players.
You are probably in the US tho, and that’s kinda what we do. Violence is sorta our thing.
Action = curb stompin
I find it terrifying when people are allowed to block emergency lanes and face no/minor reprocussions for it. If their actions lead to fire/ambulance/police/essential workers not being able to get someone in time they should face criminal charges. Its just unacceptable, there are so many other ways to protest that aren't likely to result in the deaths of innocent people. I suspect if people knew they could potentially end up in jail for a long time on manslaughter charges when someone who would have lived dies when stuck in an ambulace traffic jam or a building burns down with people trapped inside, many would think about more than their own self rightousness for their own self preservation even those that don't really care about others.
those who run our society want what they want, the term useful idiot has been around for along time
“The surest way to work up a crusade in favor of some good cause is to promise people they will have a chance of maltreating someone. To be able to destroy with good conscience, to be able to behave badly and call your bad behavior 'righteous indignation' - this is the height of psychological luxury, the most delicious of moral treats.” Great and relevant quote from Aldous Huxley
It also helped produce some of the most evil regimes of the past and present. It would not have been possible without ordinary people willing to attack each other over ideology and scare the opposition to flee their countries.
That's why leftiats are able to harass random people in the street without any shame. Because they call their victims nazis. You'll notice every lefitst buzzword that a regular person can be labeled, ending with an ist or a phobe, they all actually mean the same thing when they call you it. "You're evil, therefore, I am justified in doing anything to you."
Huxley was somehow even more prophetic than his (literal) student Orwell.
There is an old sentiment which I find quite fitting for the Activists. And it goes like this: When you spend your entire life fighting an enemy, to win, you will eventually become that exact enemy.
Yes, stuff has to change, but resorting to violence against anyone who doesn't 100% agree with you doesn't make one a hero, it makes them a bigot. And I, for my part, am happy to no longer be a part of these groups.
But aside from that, I found this video incredibly well made and you summed the situation up pretty well👍
I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your videos and perspective on these topics. You articulate it wonderfully. It blows my mind that diversity of thought is completely taboo now. I would never want protesting to disappear but I have never been fond of it because it gets way to emotional.

Your part four is especially insightful. They cannot tolerate even polite questions because even a polite question from a well meaning individual feels like a personal attack on their very fragile identity. The more they stay in their bubble, the less resilient they become, the greater they fear anything that might be a threat to their “safe space” and their identity.

The over focus on identity, because they have a fragile identity or none. Banking it all on causes or sexuality or singular personality traits.

Insightful, unbiased, and honest! Thank you! If only the activists could think and speak in such a rational manner -- but I guess the only they can get attention for their irrational agendas is to scream and make a public spectacle of themselves -- which only turns rational people away.
It’s a headache and darn stressful and stupid to be activist.
I couldn’t agree more 🙌🏿
I disagree somewhat. Some activists want things that are actually good.

The Woke will end in a horrific disaster for these activists… and the stigma against them will be felt for generations. They are probably more afraid, more than anything else, about being inevitable cast out and seen as rejects that no one shall or will take seriously. In my hypothesis, that's why I think they have such fervor, it's intense desperation.

As someone who up until 1 or 2 years ago considered myself a "liberal", I can say this is an extremely eye opening and well constructed video. The rising tide of authoritarianism in the west shouldn't be taken lightly.
We are human beings, the most successful species to exist. Not dogs attacking eachother for a bone, not bees attacking the males for not doing any work or any other species. We have come so far to be destroying ourselves from within and i sincerely hope the people who think its okay to attack, scream at or belittle others with different opinions can get a wake up call one day, just like i have.
Instead of being woke, try being awake.
Some of the most totalitarian and outright EVIL regimes in history were all created by people just like the woke activists in modern times. The Brown Shirts all fought believing they would help bring back Germany to its former glory and the Reds in China and Russia fought because they believed they could create a more equal world for the workers to live and grow in.
All three of these countries turned into the most evil and heartless of empires whose effects we still feel today as China is still sadly around and Putin still clings to the Soviet Union of old while a new American Soviet State seeks to create itself and repeat the same mistakes the Reds of the past made.
It's a viscous cycle that will keep repeating itself as long as people with jealousy and hatred in their hearts remain.
Excellent analysis and very well articulated.
Self criticism and taking a look at oneself from other viewpoints is important.
You can be a liberal and not act like them. They're at the extreme. What you can do is to bring your fellow liberals to be more open to discourse and act less rabidly. Imo from what I've seen more and more liberal unsubscribe to their ideals and leaving the left with more of them rotten ones.

@@jhegre bro what
What’s funny as my former college history professor (also a accredited historian) once told me “social activism is one of the most overhyped phenomenons in modern history. There is a common myth of its importance and positive impact on the world. In reality it’s been consistently one of the least effective methods of societal change.” As a young naive then activist I was stunned, and resented him for this statement. Later realized he was very much correct via my own experiences with “activism” and further research into historical precedents.
More often “social activism” as it is typically practiced by ideological extremist (which is exactly what these people are) is the catalyst for violent revolutions and civil wars that often result in the polar opposite of what the instigating factional movements wanted. As they are often deemed the source origin (mostly because truthfully they are) of the societal destabilization that led to armed conflict in the first place. Thus a lot of the societal resentments and anger of the common masses when the pendulum inevitably swings back in their direction falls on these activists.
Good examples:
Czarist Loyalists vs Russian Reformists vs Bolsheviks vs Mensheviks (Bolsheviks were the more disciplined and ideologically unified faction that won out over the others. Still quite aggressive but compared to the others considered more stable to the common people.)
Jacobins vs Imperial Reformers vs Royalists (Reformist aligned factions linked to Napoleon won out in the end, especially as the Jacobins became morally unpalatable to the general populace.)
Loyalists vs Patriots (Patriots won out, also many forget the Loyalists were in the beginning actually way more aggressively opposed to the Patriots and their initially peaceful activities than vice versa. Which led to a gradual radicalization of the Patriots whom became more aggressively hostile to them in exchange. Patriots won out among general populace due to the popular perception of their violence being more contextually justified than the British aligned Loyalist movements.)
Abolitionist Northerners vs Pro-Slavery Southerners (Abolitionists ultimately won out, often people forget that it was the pro-slavery advocates whom were the most overtly aggressive throughout most of these interstate struggles leading up the Civil War. With groups like John Brown being the exception on the other side rather than the rule. And largely being organized violent militias led by religious groups that formed out built up resentments against the aggressive tactics long employed by Pro-Slavery “activists” whom were really ore akin to intimidation mobs, criminal gangs, and domestic terrorists, in the frontier territories.)
Communist/Socialist and Spartacist Inspired Movements vs the Nazis and fascist aligned movements in Germany (Unfortunately the Nazis and a coalition of other groups won out in the Weimar Republic due to its establishment’s universal unpopularity. And the public backlash at the decade long undisciplined and random violent escalations. That were often perpetrated on common civilians by the various socialist revolutionaries and anti-government movements. Thus leading to the erroneous perception that the comparatively less overly aggressive and disruptive fascist groups were more stable and less prone to extremism. And the unpopular Weimar Republic establishment much to their future detriment chose to ally themselves with these forces as a protective bulwark against the then more radical socialist movements.)
And too many more to count. Point being right or wrong usually the side that curry’s less popular favor from the common masses ends up losing.
I appreciate your assessment of activism. And I think it is smart to start one's clean up of the world with their small corner of it. Every time I think I can do something bigger than I am, I am reminded that I still have work at home, with my family and friends before I take on bigger projects.
One of the telltale signs of a cult is being encouraged or even forced to cut those that don’t agree out of your life, allowing the cult to become the single source of information and education. Sounds a lot like what you’re describing in this video.
Absolutely. Narrow line hard core cult like thinking and behavior, mixed as an angry mob whom are impossible to speak to. The fact that someone takes it upon themselves to destroy classic art pieces that belongs to humanity itself, in order to get attention upon whatever it is that you are trying to communicate, will get lost in such an attempt. I'm sorry, i totally missed the point, all i can see is the destroyed painting, after that i don't even want to talk to you because you're a entitled psychopath and should be taken in for psychiatric evaluation and intervention immediately. That is my honest hard core opinion. Bet somewhere along the line they get silk glove treatment though because they keep getting away with this 💩

I remember how Gina Carano lost her role on The Mandalorian and was basically blacklisted for her views on the handling of the pandemic. While I disagree with those opinions, she didn't actually say anything that was hateful, illegal or worthy of getting canceled. Suddenly, people that are essentially powerless in every day life felt the power of being able to destroy someone's life, and of course, started looking for new victims on Twitter. Even though canceling people wasn't new, this felt like a turning point where people didn't even have to leave their houses to feel powerful in their moral superiority.
And their moral superiority comes from the fact that they deemed themselves to be correct. Circular thinking, to top it off.
She made a point that oppression begins with political division and got destroyed for it.

One would think presenting someone with the plain, concrete consequences for their actions would shake someone into realizing how wrong they are. It's incredible (horrible, but incredible) to watch that Stop Oil activist twist herself into knots to avoid being shaken. Doing everything in her power to avoid having to even acknowledge that her activism directly led to someone being irreparably harmed.
But that's the modern activist in a nutshell. You can apply that standard to their every cause. Whether it's the poor and the racial minorities they claim to fight for, children, or even gay people, they will refuse to acknowledge ANY evidence that shows their activism is hurting those groups. They can't allow themselves to believe, even for a second, that they are in the wrong. Their minds would literally shatter.
