MGTOW is pretty much the only group i think thats in touch with reality... thats a bit crazy too... cuz MGTOW can easily get mixed up with misogyny and victim mentality... I was MGTOW before I even knew there was a MGTOW... the philosophy turned my life around.
The panelist on the far left (pun intended) I was wondering about her... then late in the panel Q&A it comes out that she is Canadian and it all became so crystal clear... she had been Trudeaued...
49:00 Brendon makes a good point. but hefails to acknowledge that the biggest ambition of those 'boomers' was that their children would have everything they never had.
The children of the boomers are the "gen Xers" (raised in the 70s and 80s). The most abused and neglected gen in history. They took the bow shock of fully developed /late feminism and etc liberal initiatives right to their faces as they were being "educated" and socialized. They are so underground /ill raised that the moniker "gen x" (i.e "unknown /"unseen") was applied to them.
I'm not sure that's true. A lot of boomers saw anything beyond basic human needs like food and a roof as fortunate, but saw passing on exactly what they DID have-their values- as the most important thing. They knew what price had been paid for freedom when serving in combat in a very diverse and integrated military.
the millenial revolution is completely ignorant... i'm embarassed to be a part of the millenial generation. But i mean life is pretty depressing when you've spent your whole life having these type of people as your peers pretty much all your life!!!
yea problem is that if they get it you get it too... and more than likely youre gonna be the one actually footing the bill... since the rest of millenials are too ignorant to know how to pay bills
Why do we study the French revolution and not the Iranian? I'd hazard a guess and say it's because the French revolution radically altered the course of human history and the Iranian revolution didn't.
I have fond memories of trudging through the snow between the kitchen door and the outdoor toilet, wearing my PJs and dressing gown. Very character forming! The problem with the youngsters being encouraged to wear their emotional health issues on their sleeves is not that mental and emotional health are not important, but that they don't realise how the state are insidiously using it as another way to intervene in peoples lives. Big pharma are players in this, as they perceive a lucrative market in mind modification drugs. Already some universities are talking about monitoring their students social media, to pick up potential mental health issues. If you can't see the danger of that, you are already beyond help..... What irks many of us is that people of different ethnic backgrounds want on the one hand to be considered completely British and the same as indigenous Brits, but are vehement about maintaining and promoting their cultural heritage and what's more are affronted when the English want to do the same. It is true, though, that the loudest voices on such issues are the over weened middle classes. Orwell recognised and deplored those on the left who were from the working class, but had abandoned their community in joining the middle class intelligentsia on their way up the greasy pole. On another note, what Brendon might like to consider is that, whilst the working classes ought not be patronised and condescended to, identifying as so called working class may well not be a particularly evolved state of consciousness. His example of women enjoying holidays of drunkenness and sexual excess, doesn't point to a mind set of people who respect themselves and whilst it's a personal choice, maybe one not to be lauded as part of culture any more than female circumcision.
The real culprits here are the parents of some of these obnoxious monsters. I can can imagine how anyone would have turned out with participation trophy culture and helicopter parents and never being told when you are wrong about anything. I would like some of their parents to answer for unleashing this plague upon us.
The Canadian girl who is so emphatically promoting the right of the minorities to drown out the voice of the majority, at 51:00 just said to the guy who makes sense that he is old, and therefore doesn't know what he's talking about-in a very passive aggressive way. She does the whole routine: sings the praises of the fundamental rights and values she's about to disparage and dismiss for no reason in the next breath. She has beautiful eyes, and that might be why she is in a position to to do something she is either incapable of or uninterested in doing: advance an irrational cause rationally. I would take her out for dinner and see what happens.
A number of interesting and thought prevoking points were raised in this video. No speaker was without such a point. I enjoyed this video for the charisma and entertainment it offered. I suppose that is in part because of the topic, but it would be unfair to not give credit to the speakers as well. I won't rag on about every point brought that sparked my interest, but I will mention that I found the point of double think quite intriguing. Not only does the phrase double think remind me of George Orwell's classic novel 1984, it also makes me question the notion that we say one thing and mean another. Simply put, holding two contradictory views/thoughts at the same time. There's a certain hypocrasy to some of the views and points brought up by many these days regarding various issues. Though it was mentioned only once I found that it was a theme which weaved in and out of the conversation.
How can you disagree with someone if you don't listen to what they say? Walking out of a debate or de-platforming them is not disagreeing with them, it's ignoring them.
As a Canadian (Generation X) with 4 University degrees (for which I had to join the Army Reserves or work 2 jobs to afford) I am very disappointed that Riham Mansour is so unaware of the lengths of protest and shutting-out "safe-spaces" are doing in some of Canada's major Universities (Toronto, Ottawa, Acadia ....) ---- BTW, I married an actual Iranian (not Canadian-born) and I work with women from Egypt, Iraq Djibouti, etc. who came to Canada as adults, so I'm not ignorant about that part of the world)
The female in the black clothing talking about "safe spaces" is classic moat-and-bailey argumentation. "Safe spaces" is used to argue all sorts of ridiculous restrictions, but she is arguing for something that should be every place, a place where everyone is decent.
6:14 - Because the French Revolution changed the world. The Iranian Revolution just added more chaos to an already chaotic region. 6:20 - Because France and Belgium are significantly more important than Benin and Togo.
At 52:00 the dark haird chick goes way off the rails and speaks some of the dumbest shit I've heard on the internet in months, which is really saying something, considering how many SJW videos I've seen.
all young people need to have some form of revolution,i did when younger,but looking back on it,there was a lot of ego and unearned vanity in my revolts,now i m older i m in awe of the society i m a part of,we have every convenience here in the west,try doing without electricity for a day and you ll know what i mean.i think we should all be thankful for our awesome western world,and stop trying to bring it down just because some people are angry and want a revolution for the sake of it,we re entering dangerous territory now,and all the moaners will be the least prepared for the storm they are conjuring up
Not all millennials, but a large portion of them were raised in a safe little bubble, in the 90's they stopped failing students for fear it would hurt their self esteem, if they were restless in class or daydreamers they were drugged into compliance, they grew up with the internet and being able to spew whatever is on their mind anonymously , they were given little time for unsupervised play (computer games don't qualify as "unsupervised play"). so as frustrating as it can be to try to communicate with them, can we blame them for how they were raised?
Telling someone they're wrong isn't the same as telling people that they can't speak. Not allowing someone to have a stage where they can speak, because someone else doesn't want to share a stage with them, isn't the same as someone declining to speak with someone because their personal issue with another speaker.
44:54 - Millennial Panelist "Getting on with our stuff.. I'd appreciate it if the generations before us just allowed us to do that..." ...and THAT, folks, is what makes Millennial "Revolutionaries" SO FUCKING LAUGHABLE. -My generation didn't care about "being allowed" us to demonstrate and riot about the Poll Tax. -My Parents generation didn't care about "being allowed" to throw away their Purple Hearts in Vietnam War protests. -My Grandparent's generation didn't care about being "being allowed" to bring down Fascism and Nazism (REAL fascists that is... you know, the ones with guns and bombs... not the "Fascists" who holds opinions slightly to the right of your own...) -My Great-Grandparents generation didn't care about "being allowed" to protest for Trade Unions and working rights. -My didn't care about "being allowed" to Revolt against the King of England in 1381. And so on. Seriously.... it's pathetic.
My experience in university was that everyone seemed to have a cause. Sometimes those causes appeared reasonable and worthy, sometimes those causes seemed ridiculous. If I'm being honest, I almost always found people with hardcore stances annoying, and distracting from what it was I was trying to accomplish (getting an education). I don't see anything much different with this generation (i.e. millennials), with the exception that they are getting more attention with the likes of social media, etc. People in their 20's (and I'm sorry if this offends you here) are still kids. They are growing, stretching, learning, trying on new things. Many of them, at this point in their lives, are away from home for the first time. They're also scared, insecure, lack confidence, often isolated, inundated with work, and because they are being pulled in numerous directions at once, find it hard to maintain any kind of equilibrium. While it is indeed a difficult path, this isn't necessarily a bad thing. In fact I would argue that it's a damn fine way for someone to learn about themselves. I guess the point I'm trying to make here is to relax about millennials. There has always been groups of people in post-secondary schools who've been vocal, for legitimate and nonsensical reasons. Let them be. Most who adopt those stances will, over time, change and adapt as they move on into the real world, as they embrace adulthood. We aren't raising a generation of 'soft' kids....we are instead, as supposed adults, letting ourselves get sucked into finger pointing and blaming a group of people who haven't even fully matured yet.
Listening to that first girl speak is astounding, she's standing there and she thinks *she's* the rebel. To become the imperial power and still think you're fighting the power is incredible. I suppose it's like all these banana republics or socialist dictatorships, they cloak themselves in the trappings of freedom fighters, even when they have the boot on your throat.
Yeah, when we talk about millennial's we are talking posh people, when we talk baby boomers we are talking posh people and when I say Beat Generation the same five or six names that enter my head probably enter everyone else's also. All these ''Generations'' are posh narcissists and then there's the rest of us! When you watch a PBS documentary about 1960's America and ''Peace and Love'' only a very small amount of people had the clout to dodge the draft, drop acid at their friends mansion and retire at age 27 in Aspen and spend their time Bonging and Skiing! or they became yuppies! Or they smoked marijuana but didn't inhale and became president. The rest of America suffered more violence, horror, terrorism, messed up foreign policy, near nuclear annihilation and political assassination than anytime in history! and it ended with the Manson family! Nothing new here me thinks. How narcissistic is it to suggest "We learned about the French revolution but what about Iranian revolution?'', that's the problem right there, it's only discrimination if someone who looks different to me fails to acknowledge me. Despite no one else in my class being from Iran, despite the fact I'm in a British University and despite the fact I'm Canadian anyway I want to learn about Iran!.. and why not the Spanish revolution? the Haitian revolution? The British revolution? the Russian revolution? why not the history of every country on planet Earth? at what point do you get off your arse hole and teach yourself something exactly? I know all there is to know about Iran 1979 and I never set foot inside a university in my life! If these kids had their own way everyone would have their own personal Professors teaching them what ever they felt like and their very own political Party each and the place would be a mess, there's no coherence or comradery at all just I want, I want!By the way ''Lad Magazine's'' are NOT working class and never were, in the 1990's Lad Magz were a middle class attempt to celebrate a caricature of a non existent working class culture. Yes there are working class people who like beer and football on their Saturday off work, but it looks nothing like the stupidity in those magz and working class people are not the ones reading them.These people are very good at accusing innocent victims of being ''Fascist'' but are completely useless at facing real oppression head on, moral grand standing!
Gettting a millennial to say 'I think millennials are revolting' is priceless but the best line, from the living son of F.A. Hayek 'Capitalism won't patronise you and make you coffee late at night and as a consequence you will grow up and become an adult instead of being a baby for your whole bloody life.'
Shesays, "We've always had youths {involved in critical thought and social justice.]." Then she cites, as examples, MLK and Rosa Parks ... both Middle Aged people in "their time".

The SU twat next to Brendon is going to be a problem. Brain + ideology = danger
I was with him until he got to the Boomers. His claim that Boomers had it harder may be true of post war English Boomers but for North American Boomers the experience was much different. You could be an absolute failure (as most hippies were) and still the times you lived in helped you fail upwards. Home-owenership, employment opportunities, social programs, exploded during their 20's and 30's.
Safe-space, no, no, no, no, it's not what you think it means. It's completely misunderstood. It's about making sure that in any "debate," you do not challenge my frame of thought.
The thing is as a apart of the Millennial horde the answer is quite simple we haven't had to go through any real hardship where we've had to grow and develop as people so now its bout creating conflicts that really are trival but keep us entertained while being enabled to do so by authority figures and the general lack of education when it comes to free thinking and scrutinizing things to the point where a general statement can sound nice and that means its right over looking at the wider context and implications but instead of talking about it and beimg challanged its easier to mob lynch those who stand aginst the horde. But god all that race talk did get annoying especially when it comes from a person who is basically white but chooses to identify as another race so they have a enemy 42:41 Erm I'm sure a lot of people do understand that and that was only half of the original question alot of it falls to people regreting sex after drinking. then the female party reporting it as rape even though both parties are usually inebriated and gave concent and the time. I only specify the female party as less males report it and even less get any substantial help for it 1:12:51 Define "respectful" with clear meaning otherwise a respectful but critical comment could be construed as hateful and disrespectful because you don't want to confront it. 1:20:18 Well thats uncomfortable and requires acctual effort and possible repercussions where as labling someone a rasict is easy 1:21:07 Utter moron what would you live under then you have to live under some system capitalism was a thing back then too sunshine go look at every socialist and communist country and see if anyone there is living as comfortable as you
"How my day had went"? This from an American or Canadian import, attempting to corrupt the London university 'educational' system, by spreading the American disease of political correctness, and virtue-signalling. The odd thing about these so-called 'Millennials' is how PRIVILEGED they are. They also succumb to the views of those among them who crave power; by seeking to drive a wedge between them, and "the old" (like me!), by talking about our 'wealth' compared with theirs. I have some news: give it time, and you will have earned far, far, more than I have during an entire lifetime. You are good-looking for a short time: as your looks fade, your wealth will grow! Just give it time.
Just take ur garden hose out and spray them and they will stop and lay on the ground until someone else gives them attention take there phones they love that..lol they like its crazy u might as well have taken there arms
What is this guys problem with therapy? Therapy if done correctly is a gift. My therapist is someone who wants me to become self reliant stronger and responsible. Something my parents failed to encourage. I see his point about not seeing yourself as a victim but therapy should never condone a sense of victim hood.
The reason you know more about Belgium and Netherlands than Benin and Togo is because you do not live in Africa, you live in Europe and Belgium and Netherlands is closer culturally with more Europeans living there. It is not racist, or systemic of anything. The millenials are not revolting, they are espousing the status quo, identity politics. They are supporting the status quo, the current culture, the current politically correct nonsense as if white people can't be victims of racism. OMG Brendan just dropped some truth on this panel. They should have just let him talk for the hour and a half instead of the other rubbish SJWs there. The fact is the millennials do not have critical thinking. They conflate education with critical thinking. They have only been exposed with social marxism in a positive life and been exposed to non social marxist ideas as morally bad and incorrect. The fact is most millennials do not understand that free speech means hearing opinions you disagree with without being offended. The Arab girl is claiming that only she can explain problems. She thinks all whites have privileged lives and that is institutionalized bias that the millennials have been taught from birth. It is not a pushback to no platform conservatives because you disagree with what they say. It is pushback for white people to tell you that they are not privileged and many come from more hardship than she will ever know. About balanced debate, most debate on college campuses are absolutely not unbalanced, they are very biased towards the left. Overwhelmingly so. Instead of debate they shut the event down usually. That is my problem with millennials, everything is a class issue, everything is an inter sectional argument, everything is boiled down to identity politics, and that does not promote unity, liberty, or freedom of speech.
"Revolting" is a taking it a bit far. "Annoying" is more like it.
MGTOW is pretty much the only group i think thats in touch with reality... thats a bit crazy too... cuz MGTOW can easily get mixed up with misogyny and victim mentality... I was MGTOW before I even knew there was a MGTOW... the philosophy turned my life around.
reinplat that's funny!
Like athletes foot
There is an appropriate line from Dragonheart that belongs here. "They've always been revolting. But now they're also rebelling!"
very funny reply! love it!
Holy hell. Brendan brutally dismantled them.
Brendan O'Neill sure lays out quite the smackdown
A pleasure to watch it!
Lovey the guy, his polotics is bang on with mine
Brendan in the plaid shirt needs to be a carpenter. Nail on the head every time!
Richard is the poster child for why people hate millenials
I like to feel I'm left wing but OLD SCHOOL left wing these damn millenials and SJW's will make me turn right wing.
Brendan O'Neil was the only true voice of reason here. Most other panelists were hysterical
The panelist on the far left (pun intended) I was wondering about her... then late in the panel Q&A it comes out that she is Canadian and it all became so crystal clear... she had been Trudeaued...

To Serve Man born in 1982, I identify with generation x
"Gen "Y"" --teen in 90s. Another lost gen apparently.
I'm not sure that's true. A lot of boomers saw anything beyond basic human needs like food and a roof as fortunate, but saw passing on exactly what they DID have-their values- as the most important thing.

Why do we study the French revolution and not the Iranian? I'd hazard a guess and say it's because the French revolution radically altered the course of human history and the Iranian revolution didn't.
HOW IGNORANT! the Iranian revolution has a great impact in increasing the number of Iranian refugees in Europe
I have fond memories of trudging through the snow between the kitchen door and the outdoor toilet, wearing my PJs and dressing gown. Very character forming!
The problem with the youngsters being encouraged to wear their emotional health issues on their sleeves is not that mental and emotional health are not important, but that they don't realise how the state are insidiously using it as another way to intervene in peoples lives.

Love Brendan O'Neill, out of all the panel his ideas was more intellectually superior.
The Canadian girl who is so emphatically promoting the right of the minorities to drown out the voice of the majority, at 51:00 just said to the guy who makes sense that he is old, and therefore doesn't know what he's talking about-in a very passive aggressive way.

I would take her out for dinner and see what happens.
Wow- The second lady wiped the floor with that silly SJW who spoke first
Richard...(wearing his mother cardigan ) was talking......complete NONSENSE
Unlike Brendan who was talking common sense
This was a really interesting discussion. Thank you for sharing.
I find them to be very revolting.
and theyre smelly!
Count De Money: Your majesty, the people are revolting!
King Louis: You bet, they stink on ice.
O'Neill wiped the floor with them - though not exactly difficult. Richard Brooks is such an embarrassment.

In Gen X we fought against 'the man'.
Millennials are 'the man'.
Who do you think had more fun.
The British accent is becoming flatter and more American sounding.
How can you disagree with someone if you don't listen to what they say? Walking out of a debate or de-platforming them is not disagreeing with them, it's ignoring them.
equitable.. the idea is bad in it self.. no one deserves equity.. equal rights, and equal opportunity, but equity Hell NO...
As a Canadian (Generation X) with 4 University degrees (for which I had to join the Army Reserves or work 2 jobs to afford) I am very disappointed that Riham Mansour is so unaware of the lengths of protest and shutting-out "safe-spaces" are doing in some of Canada's major Universities (Toronto, Ottawa, Acadia ....) ---- BTW, I married an actual Iranian (not Canadian-born) and I work with women from Egypt, Iraq Djibouti, etc. who came to Canada as adults, so I'm not ignorant about that part of the world)

Short answer is no.
They are brainwashed and a bit nutty.
Yes they are. They are completely revolving!
Great to see BoI sessions uploaded to RUclips so much sooner than previous years. Nice work, Worldwrite!
22:00 Wasn't John Major against the EU?
also, no body is entitled to be respected.. without a cause.. age, merit, position...
They always been revolting. Not they're rebelling.
The shaggy haired lad has got to be the largest purveyor of postmodern busywork garbage that I've ever had the pleasure of listening to.
Sure they do ... they downloaded the Revolting App, while sitting on each other's lap, exchanging gratuit thumb ups, to each other.
did he say "my house has an outside toilet"? he must mean the toilet at the pool house
6:14 - Because the French Revolution changed the world. The Iranian Revolution just added more chaos to an already chaotic region.
6:20 - Because France and Belgium are significantly more important than Benin and Togo.
At 52:00 the dark haird chick goes way off the rails and speaks some of the dumbest shit I've heard on the internet in months, which is really saying something, considering how many SJW videos I've seen.
Emotionalism vs rational common sense.
The hair genetics on this panel are very diverse
2.5 yrs on ------ O'Neill only gaining relevance
Anyone else notice the smug look on these liberals faces?
"Are millennials revolting?" No, many of them are just revolting!
I find them very revolting. Can't stand them.
7:10 "And when I told them how my day had went." Yes, black culture is 'becoming' mainstream.
If you can call a river of tears a "revolt", then yeah, I guess they are.
"They certainly are! Just look at them!"
White House staff meetings should cover the topic of whether to end the United States because of Noomi Rapace
It's annoying to ask yourself a question and then answer it.
all young people need to have some form of revolution,i did when younger,but looking back on it,there was a lot of ego and unearned vanity in my revolts,now i m older i m in awe of the society i m a part of,we have every convenience here in the west,try doing without electricity for a day and you ll know what i mean.i think we should all be thankful for our awesome western world,and stop trying to bring it down just because some people are angry and want a revolution for the sake of it,we re entering dangerous territory now,and all the moaners will be the least prepared for the storm they are conjuring up
Yes, Millennials are revolting.
Young people should be seen and not heard.
Not all millennials, but a large portion of them were raised in a safe little bubble, in the 90's they stopped failing students for fear it would hurt their self esteem, if they were restless in class or daydreamers they were drugged into compliance, they grew up with the internet and being able to spew whatever is on their mind anonymously , they were given little time for unsupervised play (computer games don't qualify as "unsupervised play").
so as frustrating as it can be to try to communicate with them, can we blame them for how they were raised?
Telling someone they're wrong isn't the same as telling people that they can't speak. Not allowing someone to have a stage where they can speak, because someone else doesn't want to share a stage with them, isn't the same as someone declining to speak with someone because their personal issue with another speaker.
You said it they stink on ice!
How can I take that fringe seriously?
Yes, their breath stinks.
the NUS lad has a badge hanging around his neck that at first glance looks like it is saying 'BATTLE IDEAS'
No they got it right when they said revolting.
44:54 - Millennial Panelist "Getting on with our stuff.. I'd appreciate it if the generations before us just allowed us to do that..."
...and THAT, folks, is what makes Millennial "Revolutionaries" SO FUCKING LAUGHABLE.
-My generation didn't care about "being allowed" us to demonstrate and riot about the Poll Tax.
-My Parents generation didn't care about "being allowed" to throw away their Purple Hearts in Vietnam War protests.
-My Grandparent's generation didn't care about being "being allowed" to bring down Fascism and Nazism (REAL fascists that is... you know, the ones with guns and bombs... not the "Fascists" who holds opinions slightly to the right of your own...)
-My Great-Grandparents generation didn't care about "being allowed" to protest for Trade Unions and working rights.
-My didn't care about "being allowed" to Revolt against the King of England in 1381.
And so on.
Seriously.... it's pathetic.
I don't know about revolting, but disgusting, certainly. ba da bum.
I've no idea if the millenials are revolting as the verbal meaning of the word, but as an adjective, they sure are revolting.
19:00 Is he irish american

We aren't raising a generation of 'soft' kids....we are instead, as supposed adults, letting ourselves get sucked into finger pointing and blaming a group of people who haven't even fully matured yet.
Centrist-reason horseshit.
Centrist? Sure. Horseshit? Depends on your views and your political stance. How about instead of attacking mine, you state yours, shit flap?
Aaaaaaaannnnnd nothing. Good for you.
Listening to that first girl speak is astounding, she's standing there and she thinks *she's* the rebel. To become the imperial power and still think you're fighting the power is incredible. I suppose it's like all these banana republics or socialist dictatorships, they cloak themselves in the trappings of freedom fighters, even when they have the boot on your throat.
Do they mean revolution revolt or Abhorrent revolt?
Brendan oneill got absolutely trashed in this one. Put him against a competent liberal and he just folds
Yes, very revolting
Yeah, when we talk about millennial's we are talking posh people, when we talk baby boomers we are talking posh people and when I say Beat Generation the same five or six names that enter my head probably enter everyone else's also. All these ''Generations'' are posh narcissists and then there's the rest of us! When you watch a PBS documentary about 1960's America and ''Peace and Love'' only a very small amount of people had the clout to dodge the draft, drop acid at their friends mansion and retire at age 27 in Aspen and spend their time Bonging and Skiing! or they became yuppies! Or they smoked marijuana but didn't inhale and became president. The rest of America suffered more violence, horror, terrorism, messed up foreign policy, near nuclear annihilation and political assassination than anytime in history! and it ended with the Manson family! Nothing new here me thinks. How narcissistic is it to suggest "We learned about the French revolution but what about Iranian revolution?'', that's the problem right there, it's only discrimination if someone who looks different to me fails to acknowledge me. Despite no one else in my class being from Iran, despite the fact I'm in a British University and despite the fact I'm Canadian anyway I want to learn about Iran!.. and why not the Spanish revolution? the Haitian revolution? The British revolution? the Russian revolution? why not the history of every country on planet Earth? at what point do you get off your arse hole and teach yourself something exactly? I know all there is to know about Iran 1979 and I never set foot inside a university in my life! If these kids had their own way everyone would have their own personal Professors teaching them what ever they felt like and their very own political Party each and the place would be a mess, there's no coherence or comradery at all just I want, I want!By the way ''Lad Magazine's'' are NOT working class and never were, in the 1990's Lad Magz were a middle class attempt to celebrate a caricature of a non existent working class culture. Yes there are working class people who like beer and football on their Saturday off work, but it looks nothing like the stupidity in those magz and working class people are not the ones reading them.These people are very good at accusing innocent victims of being ''Fascist'' but are completely useless at facing real oppression head on, moral grand standing!
Gettting a millennial to say 'I think millennials are revolting' is priceless but the best line, from the living son of F.A. Hayek
'Capitalism won't patronise you and make you coffee late at night and as a consequence you will grow up and become an adult instead of being a baby for your whole bloody life.'
these guys are the living proof that being well spoken doesn't equal being smart. smug, spoiled little children. they need boot camp!
Shesays, "We've always had youths {involved in critical thought and social justice.]." Then she cites, as examples, MLK and Rosa Parks ... both Middle Aged people in "their time".
The SU twat next to Brendon is going to be a problem. Brain + ideology = danger
Revolting? They are. I can smell them from here.
Yes.
Egads! They sure are!
I don't call them Millennials, I call them the man-bun generation.
if students have safe spaces on campus how do they handle life when they leave university?
They complain to HR or ask to speak to your manager.
I agree...the whole generation is "revolting". Weak wills....weak minds....weak in general.
richard (nus bloke) is definitely channeling his inner tony blair
I was with him until he got to the Boomers. His claim that Boomers had it harder may be true of post war English Boomers but for North American Boomers the experience was much different. You could be an absolute failure (as most hippies were) and still the times you lived in helped you fail upwards. Home-owenership, employment opportunities, social programs, exploded during their 20's and 30's.
I needed this .
theyve always been revolting. now they are fighting back!
50:45. That laugh though
Safe-space, no, no, no, no, it's not what you think it means. It's completely misunderstood. It's about making sure that in any "debate," you do not challenge my frame of thought.
The thing is as a apart of the Millennial horde the answer is quite simple we haven't had to go through any real hardship where we've had to grow and develop as people so now its bout creating conflicts that really are trival but keep us entertained while being enabled to do so by authority figures and the general lack of education when it comes to free thinking and scrutinizing things to the point where a general statement can sound nice and that means its right over looking at the wider context and implications but instead of talking about it and beimg challanged its easier to mob lynch those who stand aginst the horde.
But god all that race talk did get annoying especially when it comes from a person who is basically white but chooses to identify as another race so they have a enemy
42:41 Erm I'm sure a lot of people do understand that and that was only half of the original question alot of it falls to people regreting sex after drinking. then the female party reporting it as rape even though both parties are usually inebriated and gave concent and the time. I only specify the female party as less males report it and even less get any substantial help for it
1:12:51 Define "respectful" with clear meaning otherwise a respectful but critical comment could be construed as hateful and disrespectful because you don't want to confront it.
1:20:18 Well thats uncomfortable and requires acctual effort and possible repercussions where as labling someone a rasict is easy
1:21:07 Utter moron what would you live under then you have to live under some system capitalism was a thing back then too sunshine go look at every socialist and communist country and see if anyone there is living as comfortable as you
Isn't this cute, a bunch of Brits talking about freedom of speech. Something they don't have.
Josh Ricks - we do have freedom of speech, it’s just not constitutionally defined.
Brendan O'Neill is the only sane one here
Some are pretty revolting...
Not only that, but they smell bad too!
Yes
Yes, millennials are revolting, nauseatingly so.
TentaclePentacle Day of the Tentacle
"How my day had went"? This from an American or Canadian import, attempting to corrupt the London university 'educational' system, by spreading the American disease of political correctness, and virtue-signalling. The odd thing about these so-called 'Millennials' is how PRIVILEGED they are. They also succumb to the views of those among them who crave power; by seeking to drive a wedge between them, and "the old" (like me!), by talking about our 'wealth' compared with theirs. I have some news: give it time, and you will have earned far, far, more than I have during an entire lifetime. You are good-looking for a short time: as your looks fade, your wealth will grow! Just give it time.
Revolting? I'll say! They stink on ice!
I'd go with abhorrent
Just take ur garden hose out and spray them and they will stop and lay on the ground until someone else gives them attention take there phones they love that..lol they like its crazy u might as well have taken there arms
Redheads are cool.
What is this guys problem with therapy? Therapy if done correctly is a gift. My therapist is someone who wants me to become self reliant stronger and responsible. Something my parents failed to encourage. I see his point about not seeing yourself as a victim but therapy should never condone a sense of victim hood.
The reason you know more about Belgium and Netherlands than Benin and Togo is because you do not live in Africa, you live in Europe and Belgium and Netherlands is closer culturally with more Europeans living there. It is not racist, or systemic of anything.
The millenials are not revolting, they are espousing the status quo, identity politics. They are supporting the status quo, the current culture, the current politically correct nonsense as if white people can't be victims of racism.
OMG Brendan just dropped some truth on this panel. They should have just let him talk for the hour and a half instead of the other rubbish SJWs there.
The fact is the millennials do not have critical thinking. They conflate education with critical thinking. They have only been exposed with social marxism in a positive life and been exposed to non social marxist ideas as morally bad and incorrect. The fact is most millennials do not understand that free speech means hearing opinions you disagree with without being offended.
The Arab girl is claiming that only she can explain problems. She thinks all whites have privileged lives and that is institutionalized bias that the millennials have been taught from birth. It is not a pushback to no platform conservatives because you disagree with what they say. It is pushback for white people to tell you that they are not privileged and many come from more hardship than she will ever know.
About balanced debate, most debate on college campuses are absolutely not unbalanced, they are very biased towards the left. Overwhelmingly so. Instead of debate they shut the event down usually. That is my problem with millennials, everything is a class issue, everything is an inter sectional argument, everything is boiled down to identity politics, and that does not promote unity, liberty, or freedom of speech.
