      He has actually ignored the fact that the Britishers we more interested in dividing India than uniting it, in which they succeeded to an extent. The fact that the real colonial history is not taught in the west they cannot digest that Indians themselves united when faced a common foe that were the British. Also you might look at Maurya dynasty or even Mahabharat, King Bharat, Chanakyas teaching, etc where you will find a united India, you might consider some of them as myth but the fact that these examples are thousands of years old hence they could not have been influenced by the invaders like British who had no taste of civilization then and might be roaming naked in the forest.

    Just like clarify some points on India (Warning : This might trigger Indians and British Alike)
    1. The reason India's system of government is so much like the British,because it was imposed upon the Indians ,as Indians didn't achieve their Independence,it was given to them as the British Empire was on decline,but the British made sure to put their Stooges in places of power in India ,like Jawaharlal Nehru ,who made sure India maintained good relations with the UK .
    2. Even after Independence,most Indian suffer from inferiority complex and most don't even dislike the British ,the reason is the years brain wash ,done by the education system ,which glorified the British ,teaching Indians that the British enriched India with English,Railways and their European Culture,it taught that Indians were inferior to the Europeans ,that Indians were a backward community. So,this and a weak pro- British government caused this confusion among Indian minds.
    3.Winston Churchill was considered far worse than Hitler in India.
    If you were a poor farm worker living in Bengal(India) you really didn't care if some guy killed 6 million Jews on the other side of the world when a fat British guy took the food away from your people and killed 4 million of your own brethren.
    This is why there is so much hate for Winston Churchill in India.

      China and Europe are places with very high rates of atheism, even though many atheists consider themselves christian in theory, but in practice they are not, which I still count as atheism.
      Atheism is a big sign of collapse because when nothing bonds humans to life and together, what can they do? They have less children, thus the economy falls, and thus the whole country falls because the military and police cannot be paid.

    14:04 Agree with many of the points about India. One point where I would interject is on hindu nationalism.
    Hindu nationalism is indeed civilizational nationalism, not a religious one. If you read the writings of its founders, it becomes clear. The definition of "hindu" being used here is in line with what the term was used for historically and how the constitution uses it as well.
    1. Before the british, and before the formalization of various religions as "-isms" in the flavor of Christianity and Islam, the term hindu was used to denote the pagans of India. No matter which gods you worshipped, which guru you followed, which sect you belonged to, you were a hindu. A negative definition - of those who were NOT christian or muslim. A positive definition was given with formalized "hindu-ism", of it being vedic dharma, including all the vedic schools of philosophies and sects. But even then, a lot of non-vedic and contradictory schools were also considered hindu, for example the 'lingayats', and even a ton of various indigenous gods and practices who had nothing to do with mainstream hinduism. That is again inline with what hindu means, bcz all the indigenous sects and distinct philosophies, all were at some point assimilated into the larger dharmic sphere by either the brahmins themselves or by the rulers of the time. For example, during the classical era, it is recorded that vedic priests used to go to these indigenous societies, and include their gods and goddesses into the larger hindu pantheon as some or the other form of avatar/variation. So that meme of 36 million or something gods, it is in reality this, that even a lot of households have ancestral family deities of their own, whom only they and their ancestors before them had worshipped. All of these different gods were eventually assimilated into the larger hindu whole, while their ways of life, practices, rituals etc. continued as is, making these various sects and schools part of the larger dharma.
    2. And secondly, the constitution itself recognizes this, and states everyone to be hindu, unless specifically defined to be distinct. So for example, christians, muslims, zoarastrians, would be considered by their own religious denominations. For a long time, even jains, sikhs and buddhists were included under the term hindu. And even today, if you are an atheist in India, you are a hindu according to the constitution.
    Savarkar, the founder of the Hindutva ideology and hindu nationalism, goes to the lengths of finding and defining what a 'hindu' is. Coming to the same conclusion - of the people of India who dont actively subscribe to the larger global pan-islam or the global christendom. And ofcourse, since all the differences amongst the people here, through philosophies, through rituals, culture, practices, etc.(none of which we can really destroy, as it is truly what defines us), doesn't much help with political unity, Savarkar recognized a need for a common identity, and a nationalism on the back of it, if Indians/hindus are to ever stand as a singular unit and fight against our civilizational enemy. Since hindus dont have the political/congregational unity of christianity and islam, it is through a civilizational nationalistic ideology that they must come together, despite differences. A common civilizational identity, representing the longest running continous human civilization, with unique unparalleled values of religious/cultural mutual respect based coexistence, and a diversity that naturally emerges from such mutual respect, manifesting in diverse forms of languages, art, architecture, literature, philosophies, religions, music, dances, traditions, etc. So a common identity of 'hindu', representing this hindu/indian civilization was created(which is again, inline with the historic and constitutional understanding of the term 'hindu').
    In this paradigm, eventually even the muslims and christians who were loyal to India and the Indian civilization, and not to the global ummah, were included in this definition. Foreigners who would adopt indic civilization as their own were to be considered a part.
    And while we cannot wash away these differences, some were considered to be obsolete and a hindrance to the indian society and civilization, as mentioned in Savarkar's "Seven shackles of hindu society". The caste system was one such source of differences, and Savarkar called for and worked for an end to social caste divisions. Hindu nationalism today is THE biggest anti-caste movement in India. Other anti-caste movements are usually hostile towards people's culture, religion, identities and traditions, they are aggressive and try to instill hatred amongst people for their gods, their practices, culture, people etc. And would also want to convert them into either christianity or islam or some kind of revolutionary marxist atheism on back of this resentment. People by and large, even from lower classes(who form the masses), are not looking for this and dont like this. They love their gods, their culture and ways. They simply want to be treated with dignity and equality and feel included. This is EXACTLY what hindu nationalism provides. Hindu nationalists are a fairly conservative people, who advocate for tradition, culture, religiosity etc. but also work against social divides based on caste and class lines. While Savarkar wanted to get everything done in his lifetime and went out of his way to arrange inter-dining, and mixing of people of different castes, for which he recd. massive backlash from some sections of the society as well, RSS/BJP's philosophy is more practical, and they say that real positive social change takes time and in this vain, RSS also arranges activities and events for intermixing of various groups, while giving representation and advocacy to the lower sections of society, uniting all of them under the common larger 'hindu' identity(rather than staying divided in their own caste/regional/ethnic identities) and making them feel included and a part of it. The BJP actively works in formulation and implementation of social inclusion schemes of all sorts, truly give representation to backward sections of society, and also works in formulation of economic schemes targeted at these sections, as without economic independence and power, no real change is possible.
    This is precisely why hindu nationalists are doing incredible in the democratic processes of India(which are dominated by these same lower class masses), and will continue to dominate in the foreseeable future, despite the ill-informed perceptions and cluelessness around hindu nationalism in the rest of the world.

    I carefully watched this video with great interest. Taking on the topic of the future of global ideology in a brief video is certainly an ambitious task. Of necessity, you have used a rather broad brush here. The sprinkling of names, dates, published facts and data is helpful. However, your summations and interpretations of this information come across more as speculation and conjecture, rather than as a robust and well-founded analysis.
    True experts and academics in the field would likely come to a host of different conclusions regarding many of the opinions you've offered. This video is concise and entertaining enough for the RUclips audience. Yet, I find this presentation is best described as a bumper sticker version of "The Future of Ideology."
    One of the serious drawbacks of online forums is that they too often become a community exchange of collective ignorance. We can have sound and well-researched professional journalism, or we can have the democratization of information where everyone is a presumed authority... but we can't have both.

Many smaller nations like the nordic countries would gladly give up some autonomy, in Denmark none of the eurosceptic parties have gone into parlament, exept "dansk folkeparti" but that was because they were the only ones that were hardlining against non western immigrants in 2015.

  • @YeahWellShutUp
    @YeahWellShutUp 3 года назад +869

    I just recently discovered this channel and am loving the content.
    I'm European, and I want to share some thoughts w.r.t. the rising right-wing sentiments that are intensifying in many Western European countries at this time.
    Naturally, there's a subset of the population who are explicitly racist (particularly older people), but it goes without saying that these parties could not achieve this level of support in the 21st century exclusively on account of racist sentiment.
    In my estimation, the reason why there's such a powerful resurgence in anti-immigration sentiment is that an increasing number of people now believe that core Islamic and European values are fundamentally incompatible. I'm referring here especially to core European values such as freedom of speech, freedom of press, gender equality, sexual minority rights, belief in facts and the scientific method, and somewhat of a disdain for the macho culture that is particularly dominant throughout the Middle East.
    For many decades, politicians who advocated for more immigration and taking in asylum-seekers in large numbers, did so in such a way that European populations got convinced that once an adult, 30-something refugee arrived in a European country, he would instantly realise how amazing European societies and cultures are, and would naturally proceed to reevaluate his entire belief system, and in so doing, adapt the European mind-set more or less overnight. Experience has proven otherwise: that it is, in fact, nearly impossible to change the fundamental values and beliefs of an adult. If you were forced to seek refuge in Saudi Arabia, you may be inclined to follow the law of that country, but you would probably never, truly, start believing in the justness of Sharia law.
    Such is the European predicament, as I see it. North America has been spared many of these issues, since the Atlantic Ocean makes it much easier for the US and Canada to screen and choose which migrants they want to provide asylum for.
    Thus, Europe's resurfacing right-wing sentiments are overwhelmingly due to ethnocentrism; that is, the belief that freedom of speech and democracy are inherently superior values to, for example, sharia law. I doubt many Europeans would be particularly averse to receiving immigrant labour from Hong Kong or Argentina, for example. Another contributing factor is the continent's aging population, since older people are generally more conservative, but the anti-immigration sentiments are definitely reflected across all age groups.
    Edit: Correction of some grammatical errors.

    • @mikep8071
      @mikep8071 2 года назад +81

      The modern pseudo-left in both North America (USA, Mexico, Canada) and Europe, is racist. The pseudo-left embraces the idea that "Those who dwell in Islamic countries perceive their own nations, cultures, and religion as evil, for they are victims of their own societies. They will therefore experience a cultural conversion upon being imported into the west, and assimilate seamlessly." What this boils down to is cultural-supremacy, the idea that "Western Lifestyles" are themselves the default human condition, and that these lifestyles and values will (by force of osmosis I suppose?) simply supplant 'lesser' or 'oppressive' values in the rest of the world.
      The march of history is towards liberty, we are told, but is it?
      America's 20 year 'experiment' in Afghanistan and Iraq disproves this idea. Look at the polling of people's sentiments in Afghanistan. 90+ percent of people in Afghanistan support 'some form' of Sharia. Yet we in the west believe that these people are 'victims' of Sharia, rather than supporters of this totalitarian ideology. [Source: www.pewforum.org/2013/04/30/the-worlds-muslims-religion-politics-society-beliefs-about-sharia/]
      This isn't confined to Afghanistan, sadly. Look at the ill-fated 'Arab Spring.' In Egypt, after deposing Mubarak, the population voted in the Muslim Brotherhood - a radical Islamist party that campaigned on implementing Sharia in Egypt. General Al Sisi stepped in and said "No," and installed himself as a military dictator. The story was the same in Libya and the rest of North Africa. The Arab Spring was deemed a failure here in the West. But was it a failure, or simply a reflection of the ideology of the populations?

      Nice to see a European who actually is looking at this phenomena with such an objective and factual lenses. Seriously, most Europeans I see either chug all the rising right wing populist sentiment to "muh racism!" but you actually hit it accurately. This is all due to rising ethnocentrism due to unfettered immigration and a perceived and sometimes real fear of cultural and societal undermining, not to mention security issues. It is not something unique to Europe. Even in Africa here, we tend to experience it. Heck! In Nigeria, we have been dealing with islamic extremism due to an influx of militants from Niger and Chad.

    This is, poor. First, no discussion of Catholicism, at all. Majority of Christians right there, oldest branch, some of the best growth and retention rates, definitely going to be around and significant for the next century. Even if you think it's about to face a precipitous decline (which it may be, though I'd say that depends a lot on the next few popes), it's still worth a mention. Same for Orthodoxy really, though at least they're not an outright majority being ignired.
    Related but different, your emphasis on charismatic religion being successful isn't really historically true. They spread like wildfire, and last about as long as one, while established religions spread slowly but make lasting gains. Small protestant churches aren't nearly the force in the world you make them out to be, nor are charismatic preachers as big a force for Islam. Frankly, a lot of the Protestants in Africa are members of larger churches (Catholic has a big lead, then Anglican, and charismatic churches are pretty far down), and smaller churches have poor retention rates because, frankly, it's disillusioning to grow up in a religion, then go out in the world and realize no one has ever heard of it. I would also say that having no central authorities actually makes charismatic Protestantism the very slowest religion to respond to change, hence why most of them are still denying evolution thirty years after everyone else moved on. Hinduism is in a similar boat. Being severely decentralized usually has the effect of making you slower in responding to change, not faster, while centralization correlates to dynamism. Why you seem to believe the opposite, in the face of overwhelming historical evidence to the contrary, I have no idea.
    Charismatic preachers in Islam are just not very relevant. State enforcement forces people to identify with Islam, and when everyone publicly professes a religion, people don't question it publicly (assuming it's even legal to do so), leading to greater religiosity on the whole from people who have never heard a counter-argument. That, and the birth rates are only stable because of the repression of women, and even then they aren't stable. Charismatic leaders would imply an ability to convert outsiders too, but that doesn't happen, and radicals in Islam seem much more intent on violence against unbelievers than conversion of them.
    Lastly, your understanding of the right wing, while not totally baseless, isn't great. Peterson is mostly championed by a vocal internet minority, and the alt-right is so nebulous as to be meaningless. A huge amount of the American right, including the majority of women on the right, are simply traditionalists and religious, and that goes doubly for Europe. Europeans may be less religious (although your assertion that the majority are probably secret atheists is preposterous), but traditionalism is a huge part of the European right, far bigger than nationalists (which are still out of vogue thanks to WWII), and the idea that traditionalism might require the religious underpinnings it always had is growing, albeit slowly.
    Oh, and the bit about Jesus getting crucified "before he could found an empire" is quite stupid. If you take the gospels' Jesus as canon (which you should, because regardless of historicity, he's the only one that matters to modern Christian societies), then he never intended to. Suggesting that he would have been Muhammad if he'd been successful comes across as a petty dig with no basis in either religious or secular history.

But all other parties, including their ideological brother, refuse any cooperation (since you cant work with them) and in flanders there also the idea of a free flanders which also support the same far right. Yet up until now the extreme hasnt been able to get into office simply because of majority rejection. And thats talking from a nation thats honestly messy.

"European nationalism" isnt the same as American nationalism in any way, as Europe is not a nation, but rather a continent made up of many different nations with vastly different cultures. Take a look at the Balkans and then try to make this point again. European "nationalism" is an inherently internationalist ideology, as it would transcend the vast cultural (and lingual) differences between the nations of Europe. The reason the US can make a greater military impact is because it is a unitary nation with people of very similar or the same cultures and values that they fight for, thus making such a great and efficient military possible. Europe cannot do this, as the cultural differences in Europe and the values connected to that are too different to really form a cohesive European military. The language and culture differences in Europe makes European governance much more complicated.

    With all these things I’m planning my ascent in the UK, reform of society to better survive the global collapse and recreate the British empire.

    You said (and I’m paraphrasing): “Unlike Abrahamic religions, Buddhism and Confucianism cannot be disproven by Science.” Well since two out of the tree Abrahamic religions are completely true. While Judaism is literally missing the second half of the picture, the origin story of Earth is still correct. You should check out ICR, or the Institute for Creation Research for proof on this. I you would like, I would be happy to write a summary of it all.

    20:19 I was thinking to myself, "That is a cool looking map, where is North Macedonia, I wonder?" Oh, there it is!
