      I disagree. That's something that is very right about the world. It gives mankind social adaption skills and basically makes us the fittest species on the planet, because we adapt so well.
      Now it causes as well an nearly unlimited number of nutjobs, but that's fine. They are not threatening to the existence of the species. They are just backup plans in case that the mainstream is indeed the unfit one for survival.
      So, consense lost.

  • @MiG2880
    @MiG2880 7 лет назад +1

    This conundrum all boils down to the fact that human society worldwide follows a template of opposing forces. 'The law of the jungle', 'might makes right', or 'the golden rule', if you prefer.
    Humans are devious.. We have convinced ourselves that we are an 'intelligent species' by virtue of the fact that we have attached sophisticated terminology to primal habits. The financial / political / social systems and tendencies are a particularly good example of this.
    In a nutshell, we're still apes.. With the same sensibilities and priorities. Apes who believe themselves to be above it all. And as such, we are dysfunctional, violent and primitive. Just like the apes from which we like to seperate ourselves. With our level of technolgy, and yet a complete lack of awareness of this, we are a recipe for disaster.
    Unless we take an active role in our own evolution from now on and realise that an ape mindset and nuclear technology do not mix.

    @schadowizationproductions6205 3 года назад

    This is the most centrist thing to exist. The like dislike ratio proves that instead of indirectly arguing against the vagueness of not assuming the problem Mitchell does exactly that because he implies at the end that he is waiting for the public to condemn his view which has so far been not assuming the problem just fantasysing about it.

    At the moment I can agree that there are people that might think that there is a concenus that there is something wrong with the world compared to the other times when there was something wrong with the world to some degree, but in reality there may be none which just illustrates my view completely.

  • @IkisDragonFist
    @IkisDragonFist 8 лет назад +1

    If it makes you feel any better- you can abandon the idea of complete consensus and instead go by the 80/20 rule....
    While it's true that expressing an idea that's 100% coherent and clear will probably leave you with 0 followers,
    You can have 80% of the population agreeing on an idea that's 20% coherent!
    You'd be amazed at how nicely, readily, and differently people will fill in your gaps.

    @AimeeColeman 9 лет назад +50

    I would like to express my disapproval, but feel I cannot without being labelled either a 'troll' or 'hater'. You see there's a lot wrong with the world when a hugely socially significant medium such as the internet creates a forum providing the anonymity that allows people to facelessly belittle and slander others for the simple sake of doing so, while on the flip-side they probably feel the are providing comedic service or simply committing a victimless crime, when eventually it creates a heavy cloaking concept, a sort of sticky word turd that one can trow at another another in order to drown out any actual useful advice or 'constructive criticism', and ultimately leads to comments like this...which is just another thing wrong with the world.

    I'm an actual Mollusc and I had a fantastic time during most of the ancient pre-jurassic periods of magma. I remember thinking how few things were wrong with the world then, and that view has remained steady through the ages until now. David speaks fluent nonsense with such blithe grace and verisimilitude; it is easy to forget how his disgorge of the purest efluent nonsense is handled with even more exigent aplomb.

    • @DanielLCarrier
      @DanielLCarrier 9 лет назад

      llynellyn As he points out, there are more people now, so even if the average person lives better, there's probably more misery total. There's also more right with the world by the same logic, but that wasn't the point of the video.
      Then again, you can argue that people not existing is something wrong with the world, given that them existing is better, and so since there's fewer people that don't exist, there is less wrong with the world.

      If the red button existed.

In the end I would probably end up procrastinating so long that somebody would come and disarm the button, or something like that.

    It's tempting to judge the world and divide it into good aspects and bad aspects but the fact is it's a complex system thus rendering the task impossible. The true engine of improvement is not censorious judgement but spontaneous acts of creation: new ideas, new machines, new movies, etc. Or am I wrong about this? Am I judging the judgers?

      I think that's the point, The idea that so many people are just saying 'There is so much wrong with the world' but not actually doing anything because it's so difficult to actually fix it because people are so fixed on their own perception and not the actual problems at hand.
      I think

      I believe it's actually a lot more about hypersensitivity and how it hinders progress.
      How, no one can even address an issue through fear that it will upset an individual or group, and how it is almost impossible to ever achieve consensus. Highlighting the fact that we need to be less overly sensitive about what we say and do if we are to move forward.

    I couldn't agree with you more.
    Well, I suppose it is possible that I could agree with you more. Had you stated more opinions then there could be more total agreement. Perhaps it's better to say that within the context of the opinions you stated in this video, I couldn't agree with you more.
    Unless by "agree" we mean not just an alignment of views but the expression of such in which case I could most certainly be more effusive. "I agree, I agree!" I could shout it from the rooftops and post it to every comment section of every site on the web. But by that measure it will always be possible to agree with you more. Even were I to dedicate every waking moment of my life to expressing my agreement with you, there would still be those wasted moments when I'm not awake. I might dream of my agreement with you but given the flexible nature of time within dreams it would surely always be possible to cram in more agreement.
    No, I think it would be safer to just say that I agree with you.

      Some people can hide it, but it's harder to hide when you're lying. You must maneuver your blade for a lie, and it's shifting angle will reveal it's position on a starlit night.
      A true blade cuts faithfully every time in the same direction. Straight down to the facts. Honesty is the shortest rhetorical distance between two points.

    Touché David, there is a lot wrong with the world. But when was it not? Now, I'm a sorry pessimistic sod, but even I can see that, among others, wars today have many less casualties than wars in previous decades due to technological and medical advancement, we have progress in sciences and medicine lengthening people's lives, creating economic growth in third world countries by having service centers rerouted there. And by stimulation of the economy they can invest in infrastructure, education and health care etc. So it seems like there is a lot wrong with the world, but it's the same amount it was 50 years ago or 200 years ago in terms of how it affects us personally and our day to day lives.

    David you could get past so many of these problems by presenting re-definitions.
    David in order to get things done, you need to let go of ideas having previously being identified or created and then being inherently true. And instead go ahead and understand them as being malleable due to our potential to reclassify ourselves as being in a different position; and thus as viewing things from a different perspective. It's internally correct when you do this, and it doesn't harm the truth one bit, just displays a cleaner and more crisp image. Which is all that our mind's eye can do!
