Michael Parenti: “Hold my mic”
This is wonderful. Parenti is very wise and deserves an artistic interpretation
What a great video! Thanks for making this.
Thank you for making this, comrade
thank you for watching it. currently working on another one called, the myth of prosperity. another 8 minute clip of michael parenti. should have it done by this friday.
Michael Parenti is unparralleled
This is such a magical tribute the the moral brilliance of Michael Parenti. Thank you.
Progressives is such a misnomer! I solute the maker of this brilliant video.
Parenti is a treasure! Thank you for making this.
I started animating in 2019 to do stuff like this and I get better every month. just wish I could cover my bills and do it 24/7. I'll get there eventually. thank you for taking the time to check it out.
Very well artistic and visual translation
Thank you Michael Parenti for shining the light of truth and wisdom into this dim and weary world
impressive work
Amazing visualisation! Thank you :)
Thank you for this great work, very interesting and vivid style
These are great. Outstanding work
I simple loved this animation. Gorgeous, beautiful...thank you so much.
currently working on another one, myth of prosperity. clip from another michael parenti lecture. 8 minutes, abt 15,000 frames of animation. it's gonna be v v cool. would work on them all the time if I could afford to, but it's tedious to draw everything. love doing it though. michael parenti needs to be heard, seen, and contextualized for different ppl. animation is a fun way to do my part.
@@TSALCOLLECTIVE Absolutely :)
Love it...
I regret how brutally and bestially Kadaffi has been treated :(
❤❤❤
Amazing work
Love it!!!
Thanks uploader!
This is great
Thanks for this! Amazing
Incredible 🙌
Not as famous but imo he's just as good as Chomsky.
We love Solo Monk and his art. Would love to visit him someday
Fantastic 👍👍
Congratulations. Great illustrations!
Here are a few corrections on spelling:
(0:57, 2:06) consistent
(1:39) undermine
(2:23) accumulated
(2:44) 'whereas' is one word, not two
Also, at 8:12, it's George W. Bush whom he's referring to for mispronouncing words (as I've heard Parenti do in other talks as well) -- not Trump. This talk was from 2011, before Trump's entry into politics. (Of course, you may already know this but included Trump anyway to make it more relevant to viewers in the present).
I knew it was bush he was talking abt, but since I included him in the rich ppl part, thought I'd draw trump. media frames it the same way under binary politics. dumb man warmonger cut taxes for rich vs. etiquette and merit candidate that says the right things while also doing same policies. I'll correct the spelling at some future point when I piece all these together. appreciate the heads up.
@@TSALCOLLECTIVE Right, I understand. Thanks for the reply.
Viva Parenti!

Great video
love it
Awesome video
What software you use for this? amazing visuals and the content is so deep!
I use the 2d animation portion of blender and gimp for certain parallax animation stuff when I'm creating images as planes. I use and promote open source software. I had an art center I opened in dawson springs last year where I taught kids for free. I try to emphasize to my students and just artists in general; learn to use open source software. even if the threshold for entry is a steep learning curve. it's more equitable for ppl trying to learn or teach themselves something. I never went to school for art, etc. always created a lot of stuff and kept teaching myself.
@@TSALCOLLECTIVE you are doing amazing work.... Particularly, bringing Parenti's work back with such force is a great contribution..Gratitude 🙏💛
@@globalgovind thank you for watching and commenting. it means a lot to me.
They are very successful at extracting wealth and consolidating it in the hands of the few. But long term it’s suicidal.
This is great. Well done.
The only thing I might suggest is an editor for the future just to double check spelling etc. but it wasn't that big of a deal and I know it's difficult to find folks willing to help on projects sometimes.
Keep up the good work.
yeah, I need to start spell-checking stuff, etc. I'm usually so tired at the end of finishing it, my brain glazes over simple mistakes. I do them in my spare time when I'm not working on commissions. I'll try to be more mindful on future ones.
@@TSALCOLLECTIVE Fully understandable. Thank you for putting this together and I look forward to checking out further stuff you release.
@@TSALCOLLECTIVE I do it with essays, legit forgetting how to write properly after 11pm
@@jonesaffrou6014 I might start working with famous written essays. I want to do one for eugene debbs court speech. might start with essays that since all the copy is already written and I won't have to spell check anything.
For a sec, US looked like a man wearing a big turban
This is great! Evil PragerU and with much better art
"this book is for stupid people to read"
-Michael Parenti
This is why corporations, particularly US ones, love identity politics.
It helps them appear virtuous but above all it helps them divide and rule as the witless proles endlessly argue amongst themselves whilst ignoring the elephant in the room.
we're given cultural targets to offset our alienation and atomization and one of the faux interfaces of neoliberal ideology, hyperindividualism, teaches us to never organize horizontally like the capital class. everybody's looking for singular ladders to join a vertical class. private wealth, private fantasy, private identity, private heaven on material plane, embedded behind state violence and vertical extraction.
One of the “progressive friends” that dr parenti was referring to was Bernie sanders
I'm stupid imma read
Very disturbing! I mean that in the best way 😁
If the events of the past century are the work of "stupid" imperialists, I'm terrified imagining the cosmic horrors that a smart imperialist is capable of.

Now that I've had an introduction to foreign policy via my international relations degree program, the more I see how fear-mongering, narrow-minded (which is expected considering you see the world through one lens), and unfortunately, misinformed Parenti was.
The perfect example of this was 'To Kill A Nation' where he said that genocide wasn't happening and was simply a ploy by "President Clinton and his associates" to destroy Yugoslavia due to the state not wanting to join NATO or the E.U.
He claims the West wanted to break up the state, when that was the opposite as we can see going back to 1990 when Europe actually gave a 5.5 billion-dollar loan to keep the country unitary as it was years before despite the civil war starting or about to start. Even though claims of independence happened in 1991 with Croatia and Slovenia, it was only in 1992 that they were recognized due to civil wars occurring. Of course, I could go into the proven genocide claims with Milosevic being charged as my initial evidence or the mass rape by the Bosnians. If it wasn't for people like Milosevic, Yugoslavia might have roughly remained intact and continued to be a liberal democracy as it was starting in 1990.
Well you're introduction to a degree is ofcourse more credible than the work of a scholar.
@@jvh4438 Reading about the events that Parenti himself decided to write on decades after they happened and the book was published as well. That is the point of any book, and Parenti's book in this case isn't notable past anyone who wants to be an "anti-imperialist."
