      I think it is perfectly reasonable that they are able to integrate easier in a place like Saudi Arabia as opposed to a place like Sweden or Norway. The culture is (I assume) more similar, the language is closer, and when people look similar it already removes a lot of potential barriers for conflict.

      Very Serious Well then it's too bad most crime and terrorist attacks within the us are done by people who already lived here and didn't come from anywhere else. Do i support Islamic terrorism? No, but I'm not gonna immediately assume immigrants come here with that intent simply because of the place they come from, you know when we go there they don't like us either right? Until we show them basic human decency and show them we all aren't bad, extremely nationalistic people.
      It's basic fact that groups with more diversity can perform better because of different people collaborating with different ideas. If Steve jobs' father hadn't migrated here as a Syrian refugee chances are we wouldn't have apple as we know it.
      Stop pretending that everybody that isn't like you is out to kill you. You get mad when they say Americans are bad and then wonder why they get mad when we assume all of them are the same too. Discriminatory mindsets never invite progression, they incite regression. If all the hate against one another in the world vanished, then we would achieve a form of piece. Unfortunately it's too late for that now, but banning Muslims as a whole just because is not gonna solve the problem. It'll make foreign affairs between us and them arguably worse, and then they'll see us in an even more negative context.
      Ever stop and think maybe, just maybe the people who come here might just be here for a better life? To get away from the terror back home? For opportunities? Don't be the kind of person to judge every book you see by its cover, otherwise you'll never understand why people disagree with the executive order. Be decent.
      And since I know no matter what I say you'll never think about it for longer than 5 seconds before you think about something like 9/11 or whatnot, because it's really hard to change someone's opinion. What I'm saying is, don't put everyone unlike you in the same boat just because of what isolated incidents tell you, actually go out and discover that there are good, hardworking people within them, you just have to find them. It's not hard. Trust me, I'm a random person on the Internet.

  • @lamcho00
    @lamcho00 7 лет назад +1

    I think this goes both ways. Even if there is no other "outsiders" group, people will still find differences in some communities. For example, they'll try to differentiate themselves from colored people (asian, black, ginger, etc) or people with certain type of behavior (nerds, douches, slum dogs, the 1%, etc). I think this is just how brains work, they try to differentiate between objects and then try to find similarities/connections among them (in an effort to better understand or learn I guess). Of course, because we don't have all of the information about every object, we generalize and some of these generalizations end up being inaccurate. So once you see the unexpected behavior form a member in an otherwise generalized group, we either accept we were wrong and drop this notion, or we just say it's a one-time event and keep the false belief.
    Either way I don't think it's possible to have a homogeneous society, because people can only know so much about other people.

    I'm a mixed African american; My grandmother is Irish, my brother is in a long-term relationship with a Brazillian, I have cousins of Han Chinese descent, my closest friend is Puerto Rican. My family is the definition melting pot.
    All the immigrants in my family, and those I'm friends with, tell me the same thing; Illegals shouldn't have a pass card.
    Because for them (especially my grandmother and friend) there was a lot of sacrifices, a lot of saving and budgeting and living frugally for years that went into them working to obtain their citizenship. And it is a disgraceful slap in the face to them that America has now become havanna for breaking the law and reaping the benefits with zero to no effort.
    This isn't about empathy, this isn't xenophobia or whatever else fear mongering mis- label you want to tape on it. This is LAW. The country is actually doing its JOB. Try entering Japan or Canada illegally and see how far you'll get, and to top it off, NO illegal benefits at that (you must be a citizen or have a valid visa to do damnnear anything other than eat).
    In a perfect utopia there are no borders. But the reality is country's have requirements and if you don't adhere to them, expect the consequences.

  • @metoonunyabidness1391
    @metoonunyabidness1391 7 лет назад +7

    As much as your video has agreeable elements
    It perpetuates cultural relativism
    Regardless of your view on in group/outgroup dichotomy
    Cultural value systems do actually differ
    And the two main opposing differences are liberalism versus authoritarianism
    This is not to say that no one should mix these two but rather it should be done with caution and a a keen eye on history
    just because we have iPhones doesn't mean that humanity has changed all that much from the days of mass murder...

      @lucasdarianschwendlervieir3714 7 лет назад

      "Cultural value systems do actually differ" that's just an obvious fact. I don't see how the video perpetuates cultural relativism. The video was making a particular psychological point, which is true to my experience. I will put this another way: when you have a positive relationship with an individual of an outgroup, you stop seeing them as a member of the outgroup and start seeing them as an individual. And that actually changes your conception of the outgroup for the better.

    • @metoonunyabidness1391
      @metoonunyabidness1391 7 лет назад +1

      Lucas Schwendler Vieira
      (closing line of the video)
      "Beyond our family, friends and community, there is a larger in-group that encompasses everyone, citizens of the planet earth, and we are all in this together"
      recognizing the political, ideological and religious differences that, often represent opposing ends sought by opposing means, specifically in regards to human rights, the right of private property, resources, responsibilities and philosophical direction of the group, creates in-group out-group dichotomies by necessity
      And this video minimizes the differences of opposing value systems
      A simple and obvious example of those opposing value systems can be seen in the difference between capitalism and communism
      Capitalism sees the right of property, production and direction as inherent to the individual
      Communism sees the right of property, production and direction as inherent to the group
      These are inseparably opposing positions, it is either the right of the individual to leave the group, or it is the right of the group to bind the individual
      To quote you, quoting me;
      "cultural value systems do actually differ, that's just an obvious fact"
      The admission of this, is the admission of the necessity of in-group, out-group dichotomies
      Cultural egalitarianism can only work if applied in all directions,
      Which is impossible in the face of ideological dogma

    This principle is also one of America's biggest problems. We divide ourselves into republicans and democrats, red vs blue, and this causes so many Americans on both sides to show very little respect to people on the other side. I am curious, but does having a polar system like this make things worse than if there are multiple different groups, because I suspect 2 roughly equal groups competing for the top is about the worse system you can have in terms of the in group out group effect.

    Division in groups serves many purposes so lets tear groups down! Makes total sense. Anyway no, there is no global ingroup, we are not in this together. Quite the opposite, the whole point of creating groups is to exclude the outgroup, thus limiting our costly altruism to a few people more likely to reciprocate. Evolutionary game theory shows not only that ethnocentrism is a dominant strategy over humanitarianism, but also that it leads to greater levels of cooperation.

    I think it's absolutely fantastic that people want to help people in need and aid them in the integration process. What I do *not* approve of on the other hand is when the government forces integration on the people who vote against it. I just don't think it's fair that a lot of tax money go to people who have never had a family line working in the country to build up the social programs in the first place. Sweden for instance spent 14 times more tax payer on immigrants than they did on their military defense just over the course of the last year. The people that want to help those in plight should do it by opening their own homes or gain funds through charity to build or pay for the housing of the migrants, it should not be a forced charity through taxation.

    • @IceMetalPunk
      @IceMetalPunk 7 лет назад

      Hey, good idea! Why not abolish taxes altogether? After all, if you decide one day that you don't want a particular social program, maybe because you don't personally benefit from it, why should you be forced to pay for it through taxation?
      Oh, yes, because large-scale programs aren't sustainable under small-scale fundraising efforts. Darn, forgot that silly little obstacle.

    We shouldn't by trying to get everyone here to have the sense of belonging with everyone else. It's impossible. That's why smaller groups emerged. Because humans seem to be capable of successful operations when in smaller groups. But everyone seems to lose that once they're in larger groups.

    • @IceMetalPunk
      @IceMetalPunk 7 лет назад

      Smaller groups didn't emerge. You've got it backwards. We began in smaller groups, as tribal nomads, and larger groups emerged out of combinations of those. The reason we generally fail in larger groups is because our instincts evolved for tribes and we haven't yet grown out of them. But we have to if we ever want a world at any kind of peace, because technological advances in travel and communication have made us a globally interdependent society whether we like it or not.

    what you are explaining is the evolutionary trait of protecting your family or tribe and you cant go against that not by explaining it or giving it names is just like that people dont have to change it if they dont gain anything being selfish is good

    But what if one of those out groups held a potential threat to your in group? How do you justify risking the safety of your in group by inviting in someone from an enemy out group that may or may not have intentions of sabotaging your in group? I liked the video and it makes sense but it doesn't take into account that someone may only want to join your in group with the one intention of causing your group harm and how you weigh up the risks of letting in a potential threat.

    Love your videos, they're always great. This "all in it together" stuff, though, is a farce. We are categorically not in this together, not even within our own families. Tragedy of the commons. It's not equally shared, it's me first, then you. Anything else is naive and idealistic.

    • @IceMetalPunk

      Except what you fail to account for is the reason altruism exists at all: game theory proves that you will, at some point, rely on someone else for your survival, and if you help them now, they are more likely to help you later. Empathy only evolved because that kind of strategy is better for survival than always putting yourself first.

    Many specific Islamic refugees are probably largely nice and non violent. Most people are this way despite all kinds of things throughout the world.
    The larger issue is that Islamic cultures seems to create greater levels of both broad and subtle forms of intolerance, oppression and violence (relative to other cultures) overall (both internally and externally, whether as a minority or majority, to varying degrees).
    This is what is largely portrayed with a great variety of anecdotes, evidence and also misinformation. We really need thorough, numerical, non-biased research on the matter (from multiple sources), to know how true it is and to what degree, to make a completely informed decision. Decisions based on news bites, perceptions and individual events don’t really cut it (in either direction). Such research may exist but it has not been a priority for me (or most people) to be thorough enough to seek it out.
    I feel that broad and specific people and aspects of any culture that are less than neutral towards the levels of tolerance, freedom, and safety in a society should be kept out, removed or quarantined wherever possible.
    [Maybe other aspects could also be added to this list of values (eg kindness, health etc). I have not fully considered that yet. These three seem pretty fundamental.]
    Setting boundaries is vital for all combinations of individuals, groups and countries. We certainly do it often to bullies, criminals, criminal organisations, hate groups and people with dangerous mental health issues. One boundary must be kept safe as a priority and also in order for it to help other boundaries.
    There can never be 100% tolerance, freedom or safety, but we should ideally try and maximise it. We need some degree of intolerance and oppression towards other acts of intolerance, oppression and violence in order for this to happen (and the potential for it).

    • @na8340
      @na8340 7 лет назад

      Yes, but a decision should not be limited to looking only at terrorism, only the last 15-20 years (which one?), with a rough percentage, and only within the US. We should consider whether there is greater intolerance, oppression and violence of any kind or severity stemming from Islamic cultures throughout the entire world (relative to other cultures in general). It would be foolhardy to make a decision either way on anything less.
      This one statistic is not thorough enough to base a decision on (nor would it be if it was one statistic chosen by someone else trying to prove the other point of view).

    • @IceMetalPunk
      @IceMetalPunk 7 лет назад

      +N A Except preventing people from coming into the US would do absolutely nothing to prevent danger anywhere else in the world. The best it would do is prevent terrorism in the US, so looking at US terrorism alone is enough to inform the decision.

But that's not the world we live in.

      Mace Moneta but in all seriousness, does people who were killed by toddlers probably loved them. They were killed because the kids were too ignorant (in the sense that they haven't yet learned how too use a gun, the consequences of pushing the trigger, and the permanent reality of death) so, at least in this situation, love kills more than the unknown

    Wisdom is only useful if used, and it can only be used if those hearing it takes it the right way. I agree with what you said wholeheartedly, but from a conservative's POV, this comes off as a bit condescending, especially the end. It's easy to say these things, but then I see people being attacked for barely breathing a differing opinion. Hopefully, humanity can get past this hurdle, but as you pointed out, psychology is a hard habit to break.

    To add some nuance. Facts matter, values matter, aswell as ideas (and thus culture). Just look at the Pew Research studies. 50-99% of muslims (depending on the country) want sharia law to rule their society.
    While I think it is important as you say to compensate for our biases. It is also important to not be naive. And it is important not to make naive assumptions (as well as negative assumptions not supported by facts).
    The question is. If the percentage of muslims increase in a society. Does it lead to positive change or negative change? In relation to our most fundamental values (human rights, view of women, freedom of speech etc. Judging from the statistics and facts. It will probably be a negative change.

    The only problems I have with immigrants is their driving "skills." People from east and southeast asia are the worst. Coming from a family of immigrants myself, the other problem is that they expect others to bend over backwards for them in terms of language. Uh, no, it's respectful to at least learn a little bit of the native tongue to get by. I have walked away from my kind asking for directions because they didn't take the time to learn the English language, and expect me to to help them.
