“The ideas of the ruling class are in every epoch the ruling ideas, i.e. the class which is the ruling material force of society, is at the same time its ruling intellectual force. The class which has the means of material production at its disposal, has control at the same time over the means of mental production, so that thereby, generally speaking, the ideas of those who lack the means of mental production are subject to it. The ruling ideas are nothing more than the ideal expression of the dominant material relationships, the dominant material relationships grasped as ideas.”Kar Marx

Hmm
I could listen to Vijay all day. India has produced a legend.
Me too! Makes me wanna go back to school, if he was one of my professors
I really admire this guy and the simplicity of his presentations. His arguments are really convincing . He has great intellectual abilities and he seems to be a man of integrity and high moral standard. Continue the great work my friend you are definitely on the right path. Thank you!
This rings so true with the concentration of the medias corporation in the West and the laughable idea pushed of a clean war.
Move forward to 2021 and the climate summit in Scotland and Wolf Blitzer ends up in Edinburgh instead of Glasgow. The mainstream media in the U.S. and Britain is not worth watching. Well said Vijay! Free Julian Assange and Leonard Peltier!
The more I learn about the enemies of America and her allays the more sympathetic I grow towards them. This is what correct journalism looks like. It tells me the facts on the ground from each side with no hidden agenda.
Western Media is good for Sports and Weather (sometimes) ... that's about it.
Finally, I’ve found somebody talking about this. Thank you for this video. Such an important topic and so insightful.
Edward Sayeed of India....love..
We need more of them...
This unfortunately has not been listened into by enough people.
Sadly,most Americans cannot point to where they live on a world map. Some cannot even point to N.America at all..
Kinda hypocritical to point out how western media manipulates its viewers then use jimmy kimmel as a reliable source of data on the avg American’s geographical knowledge…
Not that his main points don’t stand
how well he made us to understand this concept.
Growing alliance of Russia and China is clearly reversing the current world order. One of the major factors behind such reversal is the power of superior quality human resource of Russia and China which is the product of their indigenous schooling. Imported government- “Leaders” - of third world, dutifully transfer tax money of common people to the banks of USA and the West. As we are seeing in Pakistan. They (USA and West) make sure that third world masses are thoroughly conditioned to accept and even justify one way traffic of national wealth from third world under the façade of “Democracy, freedom, and human rights”. I urge Vijay to initiate discussion on “Mechanism of “How third world population are conditioned to serve the interest of US & West at the expense of their pauperization”.
Excellent talk.
Brilliant.
Excellent
As relevant now as ever. More so perhaps. We now see the rhetoric being ramped up to justify war with Russia... Not a single interview with Russian Representatives yet pages of commentary about their motivation and intentions
This guy is smart
I thoroughly enjoyed this teaching! Learn't how to clarify my own understanding of things
Knowledge is power indeed!
Superb. Vijay prasha is a true super hero. ♥♥♥♥♥♥👍👍👍👍👍😡😡😡😡
Brilliant

Sir, this lecture is very useful to me as a layman.
Thank you very much!
Government in latin means to (govern the mind) and
Religion in latin means (bound by the book).

How come we haven't got hand on these facts, it's our media after 4 years of this video , still we are watching all the same stories about north korea
epic!
Thanks RUclips
It is somehow funny to me as an Ethiopian to hear something like “déjà -vu” or “déjà-entendu”. Things you said about journalists reporting on fabricated information have happened in the Tigray conflict in Ethiopia not long ago. Western journalists based in Nairobi, Kenya are “wise” enough to report an “eye-witness” account of the conflict in Northern Tigray telling the world a “definite” number of Tigray civilians killed in a conflict that happened maybe hours ago. When one of these ignorant and insensitive “omnipresent” journalists was confronted on how he got the information, he shamelessly replied, “I heard it on “Demtse Woyane”, a terrorist controlled media outlet. Surprisingly, he added the fact that no Western people let alone journalists are allowed in the conflict zone. Vijay, I am beginning to believe David Ike’s theory of the shape-shifting nature of the ruling class anywhere in the world.
To reach the ultimate conclusion of people wanting to hoard wealth even though it causes others to be hungry, by intelligent design the vast majority are born with a desire to be rich, which causes them to worship the rich. And so, we the few who desire to feed the hungry, in no way should we fantasize our inner goodness, as this would make us most despicable.
People aren't born that way, jeez. 99% of these tendencies are thought directly or bred in by our toxic social environments. Step outside of what you think you know and ask yourself the real questions.
Wow
Most Americans can't even point out USA on a map
His erraticism and eroticism ...
how can you guys shoot him so so badly? its insane
Earlier on this day, net neutrality was effectively killed.
I,along with ( thousands -perhaps even millions) protested [ left messages on my representatives answering machine ]
to .no. avail.
Many of my co-workers are simply enamored with trump, he is making America 'great again'..
they are stupid in their ignorance
Jackals sleep lightly..
Thank you Vijay, I bid you peace
I mean 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏♥♥♥♥
🌹✌️👍☮️. 🇬🇧🇮🇱🇺🇸👎🏿
Americans not able to point out North Korea is failure of its education system. 😂
Calling trump and Nixon madmen mad erratic without giving any pretext and analysis and asking to understand north korea (that's good imo) isn't that hypocritical?? And the Libyan example which he is using to justify the North Korean nuclear proliferation priority happend just 4-5 years before this video and proliferation is happening way before that...
I dont think he meant it. What I was seeing is that he said a coin has two sides. Likewise for any country there any many perspectives like 1.how they view about their own country 2.How the country who hates them view them 3.How a neutral country view them and 4.How a country favouring them view them etc.., Obviously he is not talking about normal people but about state medias who should never take sides and should remain neutral while making their articles.
@@pandiguru4283 correct !!
