    The big words. Pedagogically means Teaching. Classist is defined as "Class discrimination, also known as classism, is prejudice or discrimination on the basis of social class. It includes individual attitudes, behaviors, systems of policies, and practices that are set up to benefit the upper class at the expense of the lower class". Basically saying that we have been taught in a way that benefits the upper class (top 1%).

      ​@TrevReacts so, how you were taught that socialism is evil and capitalism is great. It isn't so black and white, and true Marxism is more pragmatic for the general good. But if capitalism is bad, then big corporations are at risk. And they don't want to lose support.

      It also means that the lens of history that we have is entirely written by the winners of every war/genocide. And also by those born into wealth and royalty. Ie, the poor people have never really controlled the lessons of history. Despite being forced to teach whatever is written or deemed acceptable by those in power at the time.

      "Pedagogically classist" = not lagging money but social skills. Looking down on people for behavior not the typical classist looking down on the poor.

      Except that private property is theft....taxation is theft, especially land tax. You "buy" land and build a home for your family, then the government can keep increasing the cost you owe them for owning your stuff until it gets so high you have to sell and move, and if you dont want to sell the home and cant afford their never ending taxation, then they can take it from you. And im talking you have a house and land worth 750,000, but you owe 1900 in taxes, they can auction off the property and pay you nothing, pocketing the equity...literal definition of theft

    Fun/wild fact, Bo composed the music for the new Sesame St movie.
    I love the thought of some movie executives seeing this and thinking “yes. This is who will compose the score for our SESAME ST film”
    Bo’s a national treasure.
    Btw, the colloquial version of “seeing every sociopolitical conflict through the myopic lens of your own self actualization” is:
    “A wealthy person of privilege seeing an injustice and co-opting “wokeism” so they can feel like they’re a good person”
    Loving the Bo reactions, keep ‘em comin!!!

      That is NOT how I took it. "seeing every sociopolitical conflict through the myopic lens of your own self-actualization" is using other peoples tragedies to benefit yourself. I think its more of a jab at virtue signaling from the wealthy aristocrats whose policies ironically cause that very suffering.

      Ohhhhh. Ok I get it now. That’s my bad, I didn’t mean to conflate “wokeism” with “virtue signaling” but reading it back I see how it came across like that.
      I don’t see “wokeism” as virtue signaling either, but I do see the act of co-opting it as a kind of virtue signaling.
      Like how corporations spend the entire month of June pretending to give a shit about the LGBTQ community, or how privileged people with no skin in the game get to pat themselves on the back for hanging up a flag or changing the color of their profile picture.
      They’re not doing anything to help those in need, they’re just using the veneer of “wokeism” to gloss over how their status of privilege (either personal or corporate, take your pick) is in and of itself the cause of the suffering of others.
      And while I am not remotely right wing, (I’m an atheist/socialist) I get why you jumped there. My phrasing wasn’t the best, and online rhetoric from the right has gotten so insidious that it’s hard to tell the difference between bad phrasing and some loaded half-truth libertarian bullshit lol

    Comedians have a unique platform and can make social commentary that others would get cancelled for. This is similar to the court jesters in medieval times. Jesters often had to break bad news to the king or give him criticism, and they would need to find ways to convey the message in a more light-hearted or humorous way so that they wouldn't lose their heads.

    Don’t use ‘first time’ in titles of videos that it’s not your first time reacting to that artist. You’re killing your own channel that way.
    It’s obviously assumed that if you’re reacting to something, it’s your first time viewing that video unless stated otherwise. That’s the whole point. Using it in the title is *ONLY* meant for _introductions_ to a certain artist or topic. The reason it will kill your channel is because RUclips doesn’t thrive on views. It thrives on algorithm. And when people look for reactors reacting to someone they like for the first time and they click on a video and find out it’s NOT the first time, they will click out of your video and move on to the next, usually leaving a dislike on the way. Their view will count, but the fact that someone closes out of your video after a few seconds tells the algorithm ‘oh, that was a bad choice. People seem to be leaving this video quickly. We should stop recommending this to people.’ And you basically wind up blacklisting your own channel because you won’t show up in the algorithm and your watchtime drastically decreases leading to further video suppression.
    Don’t abuse the title. You think it’s clickbait, but you’re not using clickbait correctly. You’re using it against yourself.

      This isn't a personal attack on anybody I'm not sure why you're taking it as such, but history is history and just because someone else did something doesn't mean that it excuses what another group of people did. These are just the facts. And we've done great and we've done awful things and that's just what happened, but in order to move forward you have to recognize what was done this is not your doing but what's happening now in your reaction now is you're doing. Just like the only way to self improve is by seeing the negative sides and understanding it
      accepting it
      then growing out of it
      improved and aware
      And help instead of harm

So, not anything near to those "bars of facts" to compare this too! 💁‍♀️ Sorry, but my first time listening to you was on your very first Tom song, you were going to go down the rabbit hole with Tom, I don't think you quite made it there, remember Tom's "Best Rapper Ever", one "you could definetly do!", was going on your list! 😢 Wishing you well! 💕

      ​@Christian Donaldson The song appears to be meant for adults, but could quite easily pull a child in to view it because of the child like music theme and the sock puppet! Language is meant for adults, the puppets views were of a woke nature referencing privelage based on skin tone, the rich are bad and that the police were catering to pedophiliacs. Maybe I am understanding it wrong. 🤔 But, that is what my ears heard! The comments seem to reference that he writes or creates for Sesame Street, which is definetly is not for children anymore! I'm only reacting to the song. 🤷‍♀️ I don't know this singer at all. We all know there are injustices and prejudices in the world. But, there is also goodness! This type of song brings division and blames identity. Sorry Trev, didn't mean to over step on your reaction! ❤

      @@sandybeechum5539 It's called satire. I know it's too complicated for some people to understand, but some things artists create are not meant to be taken at face value. The medium of children's song is chosen precisely *because* kids are indoctrinated at an early age to imagine a world that just works together perfectly (remember "symbiosis" in grade school?), when the truth is obviously very different.
      I also love that the "Free speech" anti-"woke" losers with fragile views are always trying to shut down free speech in the name of controlling the views of others. Incredibly ironic.
