This guy seems like one of those story Antagonists who has reasonably good intentions.
The only difference is he attempts to bring it upon through speaking.
Without structures to protect the general populace, the strongest few will seek to force their selfish agenda and vision upon everyone else. Recorded history shows this to be the common; and individuals that are unique / jurisprudent / unselfish are historically remembered because there are relatively few examples of them.
I really enjoyed this, I love how Isaacs brain works
i’m from the post-apocalypse and i approve
I love how Isaac's brain work I could just listen to him talk for hours
Watching in 8/2020 like, "you're welcome".
This is about the half-dozenth 'apocalypse' related Ted Talk thats popped up on my youtube feed within the last day or two. I'm beginning to think we're all supposed to be terrified.
So your saying we should have an apocalypse because we can't put ice cream in our pockets...
im sold
Giving up things is really scary because we as society have been thought that things is what you need and that is safety and comfort so we don’t even know how to give this up we’re scared
Pretty brilliant and necessary. Unfortunately the mass majority is too selfish and stubborn to even realize this.
People get upset because companies outsource for cheaper labor but if the company decided to out outsource, then they would go bankrupt and EVERYONE would lose their jobs and the future outsourced people wouldn't even have jobs. It's better to cut off the limb than lose the body.
That example contains a false assumption; that in order to compete we must lower our standards and impoverish ourselves to the wealthy. The solution is to put import tariffs on nations who do not maintain sufficient health, safety, environmental standards, and a socially healthy distribution of wealth. This would prevent selfish corporate executives from hiring slave labor overseas while encouraging other nations to raise their standards so that all people around the world can be healthy and happy.
We really screwed up this attempt at a civilization... give us another try 🙏🏻
“Ideas worth Sharing” they said…
i’m an ape and im offended
Let's assume a global apocalypse happened. Whatever remains of a dictatorship would dominate those survivors who cares about x rights. The Game of Thrones appears to be an inherent part of animal psychology.
isaac.. not nervous at all..this is cool btw
The speaker must be using the word Apocalypse as a metaphor. A true apocalypse would be horrendous starting with a mass die off of people. A dark age would ensue assuming survivors. As for wanting to change society vs keeping it the same, there are some Ted talks about neurobiology that influences whether you are a conservative (embrace the same) or liberal (embrace change).
This guy still had his cat 😢
This man feels mocking the bible
I am sorry but I need my toothbrush and paste. Who is going to make that?
This is a new age person who would never servive the situation he's describing.
Take away law and order? Trust me you'll need a gun my old son if you're to survive.
Your rights and feelings won't exist and may I suggest you decide what gender you are quickly, you might be confused now but in this future? You might be calling out for some of those old traditions you say are dead
1st comment nice talk
Lots of words - not much said.
