Gosh, communication is so complicated! Clearly I am lacking social skills as, if someone says to me: we should meet for coffee (for instance), I take that as read. Then I wonder why people say things they don't mean, with such frequency. I only say such things if I mean them, and it frustrates me that other people don't. If I didn't really mean exactly what I was saying, I wouldn't say it. I had no idea it was normal to be so obtuse!

😊

Good Morning!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you feel like you control your life or like life controls you?

😊

you are on point.

How I wish I understood these things when I was younger...

Let me know what you think about indirect communication, plausible deniability and double meanings. 💃

After divorcing a psychopath and growing up with an alcoholic my sense of self was rock bottom. It’s very difficult to move on with kids and no family and start again with nothing

Let me know what you think in the comments 👇

this was so on point and clear thank you🙏

I wasted so much time on idealism. And the worst part is that it wasn't sold to me by anyone, I did it to myself.

1.If idealism is to propel men forward in excellence then it is to welcome but if the same is to make him idle it is rather false. 2.However a name sake religion will not yield fruit. 3. God is to him that live in Truth and obedience, the disobedient will reap the fruit of his deed. 4. The world as it is, is nothing but to make of it something is to run the course of life with purpose. 5. Often half truth is full lie.

Are you a realist or an idealist?

I might end up sounding like a bot. But for financially literate people, saving money involves investing it into stocks, bonds or other assets. Index funds are a way of getting a decent return with minimal knowledge of individual stocks/bonds. I think in America, investing is more popular so this is obvious to people. Here in Europe, people are more sceptical of investing for some reason, and property/land is seen as the only "real" investment (which is not something everyone can afford).

Thank You ,😊

I deal with complex-ptsd and I gotta say this was really well put. Regaining a sense of self and acceptance for whatever happened & deciding a healthier response to life in the wake of traumas is key. And yep it’s one of the hardest unfair things you’ll have to do but the only real thing that can stop you from recovery is letting externalities dictate it.

Love it!!!!!!!!!!!

"only you can decide if something should hurt or not" BOOM! 💣 Another great video Chris thank you!

So, your argument is that being educated is not a guarantee of being an autonomous, critical thinker (well, okay) and conclude that this means that it is designed so that this is the outcome. Back to school methinks.

Understanding a problem is a good thing, then the next step is finding a solution. With creative minds outta the box =)) Educational reform draft, developing tools for educators to directly create and implement that draft while eliminating educational bureaucrats, legal proposals for enforcement of the reform projects, something like that. But yeah, problem definition goes first. Interesting topic, thanks.

Education was created by reptiloids and resulted in Atlanta's catastrophe. People like you are going to save us.

I do not think of the ego in these exact terms, but I understand what you are saying. And I like what I am hearing.

As everything in the world, love is perfect and man is imperfect.

Totally true!

Have you hit rock bottom yet?

So true. If I write what I want for an assignment, I’ll get a C. If I write what they want to hear, I get an easy A. Super frustrating. I’m paying to learn and to expand my mind - yet - this is the result.

It's a little bit cliché tho...it's been said so many times. It's obviously a plus in somebody's life to learn and know at least the basic stuff : reading, writing, counting ! And with that, nothing prevents you from thinking critically or be creative in your teen or adult years. You talk of school and teachers as if they were autoritarian surrogates...teachers get persecuted and ass whooped by their own students nowadays. Nobody ever said that what i was learning was gospel but that being said, in order to learn anything at all in the beginning, one has to give it some value and some truth...Kids aren't psychologicaly ready to cope with the idea that facts aren't set in Stone and prone to be understood differently depending on the way we conceptualize the world...plus, try to teach to a class of 30 overactive Kids, and let see what are your thoughts about obedience afterwards...you ll lose your shit in no time

Most people don't want to "think for themselves". They are way more lazy than you think. And of which education system are you talking about? Depends on the country, I'd say. Obeying isn't very common at the moment in western countries. Go and ask teachers in any European country. Every society needs some rules, like rules for traffic for example. You can't go without. I don't see sheep. I see lazy people (lazy in their minds) and I see thoughtful people. Bashing everyone won't help.

What is your strategy for getting rich?

Great stuff. This is why "Being Yourself" even though its cliche does have wisdom to it. If you accept that you always will be a Hero, Villain, Victim etc in someone's story it enforces you to really be confident in what your about. That's why caring about people's opinions may not benefit you unless if its constructive criticism that helps you out or your with some people you trust.

I have a video suggestion, may you talk about fame and celebrity culture.

Everything you're saying is true. However it's much worse. I've been studying the control system since before 911. The sheeple are brainwashed by the media, political system, monetary system, educational system, big pharma, big food industry. We're basically rats in a cage. However, the elite have a different system. Grooming their children to be in control. Like George Carlin said, it's a big club, and you're not in it.

I am from a third-world country and here we have a preconceived notion that anybody who is proficient in English is smart and knows what they are doing. It amazes me that when I find people arguing over stupid stuff on the internet and these are the people that hold the college degrees. Another thing is I have met a lot of smart people that dropped out of colleges because of circumstances and they are doing just as good but just don't bother getting involved.

I somewhat agree with you and somewhat disagree with you. Coming to a new country is hard even if you share the same skin color as the the dominant group. They can pick out your accent, different customs and you have to do low wage jobs. But racism is about skin color. People who are darker skinned are often written-off and excluded right away. These people often have the same culture as the majority and similar education. So I don't get what you are saying.

Chris, the education system creates obedient SHEEP 100%! 😭 P.S. Big up to the mini xmas tree in the background 🥹

Are you smart or educated?

Do you envy or admire rich people?

1 view! Me!

Some very thought provoking comments, thank you.

The whole point of a nation is it about the people governing themselves. Outsiders are inherently a problem. The country is meant to work in the best interests of its own citizens. Of course there is inherent hostility. Hell even regions within a country have a tribal aspect. Just look at tribalism in football. Prople don't mind visitors so long as they are respectful but the idea that their nation is basically open to anyone and everyone is slap in the face. The whole point of a nation is a people having autonomy and control and responsibility over their own destiny. Again look at football. People who swap the team the support are see as disloyal traitors. Even though clubs sign players supporters are in it for life. You can't just stop supporting spurs and swap to arsenal.

Just cowards trying to cloak their racism in "logic and facts" when said facts are just their opinions.

Well, it depends!! U can't just say there is NO discriminatiom at all, just based on the skin color!! Of course there is !! Your skin color & your racial background can definitely help you get more opportunities or less depending in the new country (culture)u are in!! I experienced alot of discrimination & disadvantages at my work place personally!! The teamleaders were polish & they never value the work we did , just treat u like a materialistic kind robot !! I myself hate judging people in general on the outside, but secretly I do judge them the way they think, believe/ they way they behave & the value that they bring!! Thats just me 😢

At least you and your children can integrate in the future, me and my family have no hope simply for the color of our skin, and nothing else. Stop feeling sorry for yourself.

Yes, also, race is a social construct. I wish people would accept that fact. Just look at how "irish" and "italian" weren't considered "white" in USA not long ago, relatively speaking (idk if it was around 100 years ago or so)

Hmm, this might be the first video of yours I disagree with for the most part. 🤔 You did mention that this was unscripted, so maybe that contributed more to this take of mine. It seems like many opposing points were being conflated frequently throughout this video. 1.) At 0:11 “Today I want to talk about ”good” people or at least people pretending to be good.” ~ you state. [My response: Are you referring to “nice” people or ”kind” people? In this statement of yours , you seem to be distinguishing between “nice” people and “kind” people. Niceness is often characterized by the quality of being pleasant or agreeable, while kindness encompasses a broader range of behaviors that include being friendly, generous, and considerate towards others. Both types of individuals can be classified as “good people” in the sense that they embody qualities that contribute positively to society and enhance the well-being of others. However, it is important to clarify that the term “good” should not be conflated with “perfect.” The definition of good implies being desirable or approved of, which allows for human imperfections and flaws. In contrast, perfection denotes a state of being entirely without fault or defect. Therefore, while both nice and kind individuals can be considered good, they are not necessarily perfect. This distinction is crucial for understanding more complexities in the language we are currently using.] 2.) At 0:34 “I think every single human being on this planet is trying to win.” ~ you state. [My response: By ‘win,’ do you mean to survive? If so, it is very important to clarify that survival does not equate to winning. Winning refers to achieving success or victory in a specific contest or conflict, while surviving means continuing to live or exist, particularly in the face of danger or hardship. When you use the term ‘win,’ it may unintentionally dismiss the potential for win-win scenarios, which are situations where all parties can benefit. Life should not be viewed as a zero-sum game, where one person’s gain is another’s loss. In reality, cooperation, innovation, specialization, and reciprocity allow individuals and societies to create collective value rather than merely redistributing existing resources.] 3.) At 5:12 “Basically, hypocrisy is a strategy to win. Ok, but when, when you are on the other side you don’t know that. Ok, um, it takes many years to realize this, that there is no such thing as a good person.” ~ you state. [My response: Hypocritical behavior as a strategy for personal gain is overly simplistic and reductive in the context of your statement; it categorizes all social interactions through a biased lens of nihilism and cynicism. Our reliance on empathy, altruism, and even cultural norms are disregarded in this assertion, which makes it conflated and ineffective in its intended delivery of being factual information. Hypocrisy - the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behavior does not conform; pretense. Hypocrisy is not necessarily for truth or survival, It’s there to conceal values.]

A "hypothetical" reclusive tribe of cannibals is known to have a handful of vegetarians in the tribe. If you and your family took a wrong turn and accidentally stumbled on one member of that tribe, would you hide or introduce yourself? Would you be xenophobic or open minded? If you make the wrong choice, you and your family might become dinner.
