Actually, this is a pretty good metaphor about how consumerism pressures people to consume things they do not need, or in many cases even want, just because we can produce it. The fact that it was an essay written (well, dictated) by blind and deaf from birth Helen Keller is actually incredible.
oh now I get it, thanks for pointing it out! I always forget to read the video description. I though this was a bit condescending to men like the 50s videos were to women. This videos is going to get a lot of dislikes from men that like me didn't read the video description. I think the joke will go over many people's heads....and even if it doesn't it still won't be funny for them. Just like some women don't find Dave Chappels jokes about women funny.
P Martin if, but they didn’t. And no, it wouldn’t be about that. This is a point Hellen Keller made about capitalism. It wasn’t very much about feminism at all.
Magari, the “invisible hand” isn’t perfect. Sorry Adam Smith. Sometimes too much of a product is made and consumers have zero demand, but when there are big corporations, they can use advertising to make you buy something you neither truly want nor need.
But cakes can last a month in the icebox and even if he made extra he could sell them to the neighborhood or give them to the poor to help out. This makes zero sense.
Magari Adam Smith is the inventor of capitalism, he argued that the “invisible hand” (supply and demand) would make sure that everyone could get what they needed preventing corporation control over commodities. But there are other factors besides supply and demand.
graphic organizer I mean, the games were very popular, it’s just something to relate them to. There’s no problem with finding a “blank-esc” style unless it is completely different from said style. Personally I do see it relating to cuphead since the entirety of the game is that style, but with bendy it’s only small bits and pieces. That’s just my personal thoughts on it. Hope that helps a bit!
R Garlin: yeah, I was abrasive at first because of the title but the points make sense. I think they’re going for rage watch views, which isn’t very conductive if you’re trying to share an idea.
Well, the old-fashioned ones do; some Asian-Americans do, and so do some deep-Southerners - maybe not regularly, but Biblical names are popular. I know several Solomons, Isaiahs, Aarons, Abrahams,....I even know one girl called Hephziba! 🤪
As a feminist I need to point out the obvious. This is a cartoon illustrating the flaws of capitalism writting by Helen Keller in the 1930s. It comes across as sexist, because it was written in the 1930s. This video is not about feminism, at least at the time the idea of "getting men into the kitchen" was in fact a feminist ideal of showing men that "womens work" should be respected and learned from. Just look at the classic I love Lucy episode where her and her husband switch roles. It's riddled with sexism by today's standards but was highly feminist by theirs. Anyway learn more about Helen Keller before calling this economic piece "sexist".
i have an unrelated question but, ive seen alot of videos where feminists put men below themselves and go as far as to say that all men are rapists. Have you ever met another feminist who says or believes in that? ps. im not assuming anything about you
DJ.HoneyRat I know this wasn’t directed towards me but I am also a feminist and yes, we run into those people from time to time. I hate when everyone thinks all feminists are 3rd wave feminists. Some people are not calling them self a feminist anymore as well just because of the stupid people...! :/ The line “who run the world? Girls.” Still annoys me. Technically we run the world because we give birth but it makes it sound like girls are above guys. I don’t think girls are below guys though; I think they are on even ground. I wish masculinity wasn’t such a prison for guys and femininity wasn’t such a standard for girls.
thank for you your answer. this really helped me understand the subject, i did not know alot because im still young. You made a lot easier to under stand and i thank you for that.
@@Alexa-be4sk so, only the manufacturers are to blame? and what about the consumers who support it with money? It's funny that in another service sector: onlyfans, prostitution - only the consumer is to blame.
Jesus Christ guys, stop choosing to be offended. This has literally nothing to do with feminism, it's an essay written in the 1930's about capitalism. Walk it back 40 paces will you?
My grandmother was actually a hardworking business woman back in the Philippines. Both her and her husband held successful jobs and became decently wealthy for the likes of the Philippines. I'm happy to say i'm proud of that :)
I'm all for feminism, but there a saying I heard a long time ago that strikes true to me. "The man may be the head of the family, but the wife is the neck. She supports the head and can turn it however she fancies. If the neck breaks though, the head is in trouble."
kill star I know it's not. There's just so many comments about feminism here, I figured I could my two cents in. The only thing I know about capitalism is supply and demand.
Why are we having gender wars in 2018? Instead of men versus women we should have business operators versus home operators or better yet people can just stick to what they’re good at. If a woman is good at business strategy then she can run a business. If a man can manage a household they have the right to do so.
1932!! I’d say 1972 actually I was married to this man until 1982 when I got divorced and started my own business then I was once again working 20 hours a day..I was allowed 4-5 hours of sleep. But at least I was the boss of me not him!
I think you might need more than a title card to show that this video is based on an essay written eighty six years ago by someone who is largely forgotten today (certainly-I’d wager-by most people on RUclips) and which explains the outdated solutions to the outdated problems. Still it was a great effort and hugely entertaining not to say quaint. Next time try something out the gilded age since we seem to be swinging past Ms. Keller’s time period and right into the age of the robber barons. Maybe an essay by a famous muckraker like Upton Sinclair or Ida M Tarbell to encourage the muckraker of tomorrow. I’m sure you can find something in your archives.
I'mTrash O_U it's time for her to be, have you read "The Black Stork"? We should put the focus on women with disabilities who empower and value all individuals, not just those they deem valuable.
Consuming less and investing the money in experiences with friends is the best and most relieving thing i ever did. Consuming won't fill that hole people. No matter how deep or what kind of hole it is.
JABS991 Okay, but what about the factories? Since there are already so many widgets in stock pile, and certain machinery are specialized... so throw out the machinery? Shut the factory down? Well, most likely, they will continue making these widgets until the factory shuts down.
Cakes can go bad. Just like how some widgets (i.e. phones) can get outdated. What happens when stuff "goes bad" or gets outdated? Of course, it's still a waste of resources to make it when the "family" or targeted market gets "full/tired of it" or no longer has any demand for it. It's a nice analogy when you see the right parallels, but you still have a good point. I just felt like adding my two cents here lol
What kind of sick man would make 10 cakes in 1 day? No rly And now what women should think? Put your man in the kitchen and let him bake food for an whole army?
10 cakes was to show that we produce things more than we need and that's exactly what's goin on in our society. We dun nid 5 iphones and constantly switching between them when a new one comes out. This just shows the market produce more than we need n becuz of it we r pressure to buy it just like the family eating 3 cakes instead of 1.
Supply and demand is kind of like a wavelength, the less supply, the more demand, but as the supply to meet the demand gets higher, demand gets lower, meaning that supply gets lower, meaning that demand gets higher...
I think they could have been a little more explicit in the title, because unless you look at the description or are familiar with the essay, it’s difficult to know what the video is about for almost half of it. This is why there are so many disagreements in the comments, people are confused.
If she pays half the rent, he should wash half the utensils... after all that's the equality they were asking for. But don't leave the job of provision to a man but still want to be helped in the kitchen yet you work and earn too.
If you are hoping for altruistic actions from a modern woman... you are a fool. Men, the chores have been automated. Keep your peace, time, and money... and just push the damn buttons yourself!
okay but all alternatives to capitalism are evil, if the customer is willing to consume the it is their fault for making the mistake, the seller just takes advantage.
Hellen was wrong about businesses producing outside of demand, maybe in the thirties but not now. Firms try hard to adjust production for demand and if the demand is not as high as supply they will adjust to attempt to meet it until equalibrium is met and if they don't the firm will fail.
Wow this is great. II’m very into that early black and white cartoon style. Nailed the 1950s and 1940s PSA perfectly! And in my opinion the lesson was taught in a Great way! I hope you could the grate work!
well weren't life difficulties building character? Look at how easy today's kids have it and they lack character. Any small issue destroys them (suicide rate is skyrocketing)
The men use the labor saving machines to get more work done at their workplaces, increasing the economic value that they produce. The amount of work in a household is the same, with labor saving devices reducing the amount that humans have to do.
Nick C not by individuals with severe disabilities, read the black stork! We should put the focus on women with disabilities who empower and value all individuals, not just those they deem valuable. This comment is not at all against you, I didn't learn about her dark side until I was taking classes specifically to be a special education teacher. I'm pointing out how public schools put most of the focus on her when talking about disabilities even though she's extremely problematic and we have better role models to look up to with disabilities
she doesn't know much about economics? she probably does the house spending and has to plan for grocery's and clothing purchases? like?? at least ... its shoiwn she has common sense.. and the cartoon makes a valid point about making the industry pay for wasting resources on things no one needs
montork that’s what they did men went to work to afford for their families. That’s why in this day in time woman can get jobs and afford for themselves. Nobody forced the man to marry her.
You can actually learn a lot when it comes to managing a household, TBH. Knowing the amount you can spend, produce goods that will benefit said household, dealing with waste, bills, other members of the household, etc. A lot of people these days have difficulty doing so, at least those who didn't put theory to practice like myself. Both my parents instilled this kind of knowledge from an early age, mainly because I'm responsible for an autistic relative when mom and dad die Its something that gets taken for granted, but its necessary info for survival in this world . . .
It funny, I just got back from reading the entire article. I like how this video picks and chooses from the few good topics in the article and leaves out the interconnecting bits that make the entire thing sound like drivel.
Oh yeah whilst are grandfathers thought the world wars and the men worked endless hours in factories everyone’s life sucked in history not just women’s
I can see how this thesis in the shape of this metaphor would make sense when it was created. mid great depression. but today you also ha e to realize the true span of globalization and near century of stability consumerism has had. If this metaphor was updated the husband would sell the cakes adjusting the price so he may be rid of as many as possible. those extras cakes as well are not necessarily a bad thing as storage and later consumption of goods should their ever be an inability to make new cakes. and if you counter that last point of that saying aomething along the lines of it will be outdated. I know of people who have gotten this far with nothing but a admittably outdated iPod.
Actually, this is a pretty good metaphor about how consumerism pressures people to consume things they do not need, or in many cases even want, just because we can produce it.
The fact that it was an essay written (well, dictated) by blind and deaf from birth Helen Keller is actually incredible.

hiashame: That is a shame because this is not male bashing at all. It is a very shrewd economic analysis.
*not born blind and deaf* but good non the less
alde: well, yes, although the two are closely related. And Helen Keller was a Socialist, of some kind.
This video has very little to do with feminism. It is about the cons of capitalism being played out in an easily understandable small scale setting.
Yeah but if she had switched genders in the story, you would written an even longer piece about womens duties of raising kids, house work, etc
P Martin if, but they didn’t.
And no, it wouldn’t be about that. This is a point Hellen Keller made about capitalism. It wasn’t very much about feminism at all.

"Mr Jones made 10 cakes"
*shows 9 cakes*
Ugh I was like ''maybe this is a little mistake of animation'' then '' but there is 9 left'' shows 8 cakes 😂
Ugh That was bothering my OCD the whole time while I was watching the video.
Maybe he dropped one...
He burned the first one
One for his side chick lol
To all who were triggered know that this was an excerpt from a book Helen Keller wrote so times were different and so was feminism
Interesting essay for 1930s set to a cartoon.
Vicky Mc lol XD
Seems more like a transport problem. In 1932, lots of Ukrainians would have loved any access to those cakes .
Vicky Mc looks like cuphead and bendy and mickey mouse cartoon
Jessie Thomas so any rubberhose animation is automatically "bendy cuphead!"?

10 Cakes??? Don't you mean *9*
Somehow, this feels extremely patronizing to everyone.
Well like is it not supposed to be
Like it was in the 50s
Aunty Agony 😁😂😂
Jack I know right, Jack
That's the point.
It is a writing style popular at the time... but yes, I agree- by today's standards, it feels condescending.
9. There are nine cakes on that table. I had to rewind 4 times to count 9 cakes.
this didn't perplex me, this was thought inspiring and even more relevant to today's society than ever.
I can agree with this one, it reaches across all groups (and isn't politicized) , keep up the good work Atlantic.

plot twist it isn’t about feminism, but capitalism lmfao
btw people this video has nothing to do with feminism, here is a quote to make sure that is clear 4:05
Supply and demand is kind of like a wavelength, the less supply, the more demand, but as the supply to meet the demand gets higher, demand gets lower, meaning that supply gets lower, meaning that demand gets higher...
Why didn’t he just sell them? He is a SALESMAN
Brayan Nunez ever heard of an allegory before

Oh wow this is actually pretty ahead of its time
The free markets don't demand you to take more than you need, besides surpluses are good for a rainy day.

Pretty nice quality
Come on just eat the *9 cakes.* I _may have_ made too many but its only *9 whole cakes.*
A blind and deaf girl wtote this props Helen
This is really clean to be made in 1932...
Edit:it was the book that was made in 1932. I'm so stupid

My brain hurts from listening to this...
1:58 They had 9 Cakes.
They have 8 left.
I knew this would anger me
i love that this video was animated and drawn in the rubber hose art style
This needs to be given in business economics
Hellen was wrong about businesses producing outside of demand, maybe in the thirties but not now. Firms try hard to adjust production for demand and if the demand is not as high as supply they will adjust to attempt to meet it until equalibrium is met and if they don't the firm will fail.

This isn't about feminism....

Wow this explains economics 101 in highschool better than the teachers
HE CAN BAKE!!! - wow
The industrial age promised less work and it only gave us more. What’s that mean for AI?
Do we live in a "better" society than 100 years ago?
Cezar Returns considering health,wrath and education, also including tensions between superpowers, YES.
Wealth*
well "health" and "education" are considered by a lot of people a disaster nowadays...
Well,if they've seen what people had to undergo 100 years back,I'd reckon, any sane human would definitely be grateful.
well weren't life difficulties building character? Look at how easy today's kids have it and they lack character. Any small issue destroys them (suicide rate is skyrocketing)
Very interesting show of that time. I'm very happy things are different today in most countries
Mr Jones could've sold the 8 cakes left
I'm sure this mentality will work in real life.
What could possibly go wrong?
wot
Exactly what I said
me too.
Well... cakes don’t spoil that quickly. You can eat one each day.
Or 2.
My OCD senses are tingly
Have they ever noticed that men work in the offices about 10x as harder. Why did the wife not go to the office?
The men use the labor saving machines to get more work done at their workplaces, increasing the economic value that they produce. The amount of work in a household is the same, with labor saving devices reducing the amount that humans have to do.
you make 10 cakes one time...
