Blue Monday: Fluffy Kittens And Cute Puppies

1. 34:00 Lived in NYC in the 80s and early 90s surrounded by co-ops and HUD projects. Must've been Canadians. Always mugging innocent people!

2. I think the failure of Occupy Wallstreet movement to make any socio-economic or political change in the aftermath of the financial crisis pushed the Left to more low level social issues and identity politics, especially when a more traditional marxist progression became a pipedream. They moved the fight to internet and to the cultural field. When that war is lost, I wonder where they will move next. I believe focus will shift more and more to internal bickering until the current paradigm on the left will dissolve itself.

3. MORE. BLUE. MONDAY.

4. Never thought I'd ever say this, but I look forward to Blue Mondays nowadays.

5. Yeah the corporate overlords would never allow for there kingdom to be split up, it would mean competition and bickering amongst themselves instead of killing society slowly and softly has possibly.

6. Yeah I think you're right, Google runs youtube at a loss. I've read before that youtube loses money "like a gambler with a coke habit"

7. Jeff Bezos=?

8. I do wonder if some of the guys who watch stardusk believe the notion that women were supposedly 'oppressed'.

9. 1:10:25 I remember Diana Davison had a video about this where the wives had businesses funded by their husbands while they were horribly failing but unfortunately I can't remember which one it was.

10. Demonitize this and all thinking ape videos….so we can speak freely already !

11. I don’t know much about tech or social media, but i find it odd that no one is attempting to create alternative social media platforms with strict rules permitting freedom of speech. People seem to take YouTube as the one and only, if you can’t speak here then you will never have an audience. As far as I know things change all the time, if a better platform emerges then it’s not unrealistic that prominent YouTubers will make the move. Who’s to say YouTube won’t become like Bebo or MySpace.

    Although I do understand that unlike FB and Twitter, YouTube is primarily composed of video content so it won’t be easy to move your library and audience to another platform. Perhaps there might be a way you can quickly do this and automatically have your subscribers redirected to another website when they click videos or channels here. But really unless YouTube changes, which it can do and would be easier for content makers and subscribers, people will have to find an alternative platform one day

12. Hello Thinking-Ape, how about you dual upload to BitChute too? It's not so right-wing since the continued crackdown on wrong thinking by our hosts here. It would be good to support you from a free platform, no word gymnastics required over there either!
    Been following for a long time, great content. Thank you sir!

13. I'm all about running a red light after stopping and no one is there. I'm constantly annoyed at my late night job heading home. waiting for an unaware, unconscious, timed electronic device to rob me of my autonomy and give me permission to proceed even when I can see for myself that no one is there.. boring, controlled, cold and dead life of modern humanity.

14. what a bizarre aside, equating the pharma industry and capitalism.

    are drugs in the us (or any of its imperial subject states) available in a free market? can you advertise (read: freely speak) that you have a treatment for disease, without the approval of state-protected authorities? it takes a lot of self-deception to believe that what's going on in pharma and medicine is anything like buying pencils or microprocessors–where profit-seeking sellers and price-conscious buyers somehow get along just fine. the billion-dollar cost imposed by the fda might have a bit of an effect on "profitability", don't you think?

    on the matter of mental illness: "just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you."

    why would anyone shy away from acknowledging the existence of "shadowy government figures" after what we learned from citizen four? are we still supposed to discredit people who disbelieve the official narrative, aka "conspiracy theorists"? clearly, just asking questions is sufficient to get you destroyed, as socrates showed before and alex today.

    "social media" is just one type of rapid communications afforded by electromagnetic networks–the internet–which acts as a catalyst for what's already human nature. good people need to use it (along with other tools) against evil people, who also use tools, but to different ends.

15. I think what has happened since the 2016 election is that the sense of entitlement that many people on the left believe they had with being secure in knowing that their beliefs were the only ones that mattered and all other deviating opinions and beliefs are therefore intolerant or irrational and must be held only by a small minority of extremists has been thrown into complete disarray, and now the left are engaging in the very intolerant behavior they deluded themselves into seeing only in the opposition. Examples: the behavior of both faculty and students on college campuses ranging from safe spaces, therapy dogs and a calming cup of cocoa to outright violence in regards to those who hold differing points of view to the accepted ones. The transition of news organizations from journalism to propaganda. The increased amount of personal vituperative exchanges on opinion shows rather than dialogue. And the list goes on.
    The left have been winning an ideological war of attrition for several years and with 2016 what they felt was supposed to be a final victory was brutally snatched away from them, what exacerbated the situation even further was that the victor flouted all the excepted behavioral norms of PC, SJW, woke, diplomatic, apologetic deportment we've come to expect from most. Such behavior in a high profile elected official has now emboldened others to no longer be silent and to assert themselves which has made the lefts behavior even more erratic and censorious. Look at what you two had to go through with the use of euphemisms such as “white soup cream”, “popping devices”, “people who’re interested in behavior that has to do with justice,” so you won't face any backlash in the form of demonetization.
    I used to think that the lefts current behavioral excesses regarding the stifling of opinion or the monopolization of language were only confined to the young, the uneducated or the fanatical but now… Look at the highly educated executives at Google who were just exposed as purposely creating algorithms that would favor left wing political ideology on their search engine, the same with the highly educated executives at NYT newspaper who through the release of an internal memo admitted their failure with the Russian collusion narrative and now want to focus on bogus charges of racism as regards the President, or for someone of the older generation the 2016 Democrat Presidential candidate who is so riddled with paranoia that to this day she spins a narrative that places blame on everyone under the sun for her failure except herself, and the recent decision handed down by the San Francisco Board of Supervisors to rebrand "convicted felons" as "justice involved individuals." The point being that the current level of neuroticism as regards opinion and language goes well beyond age, education or the amount of social media use. This is a form of mental rot that has been metastasizing in our institutions educational, political, etc and the general population for years and until it is excised in some fashion it will continue to have a corrosive effect until the human spirit itself is finally crushed.

16. Stardusk. Could you make a video on your experience with insomnia?

17. Pretty sure my father was neurotic (probably due to horrible upbringing) and my sister and I are, too, due to being raised by a clinically depressed, neurotic person (he still did pretty good with life with brute force effort, so credit where credit is due). Yeah it's shit, especially when you know, rationally, that we're in a relatively VERY low-threat environment compared to most of history. I still sleep with a specially shaped metallic billot and ergonomically carved timber next to my bed. Perhaps I would also consider resting a high pressure rated tube designed to accelerate small, high density objects next to my bed, too. You know, in case an emotionally embroiled group of people take an interest in me, or the semi elected enforcers of societal and civil norms comes to take me away due to wayward opinions.

18. The reason they are willing to feminize MSU like with Captain Marvel and lose $ is because their goal isn’t to make $. They want the Comic book movie audience and to propagandize these masses. In the long run it will make them much more $ by pushing their agenda, and frankly all these companies are owned by the same 12 families. What donthey care if one company loses $? They can shuttle $ from one company to another. Once the audience dwindles to nothing, they will move on. Comics was one last industry which many found refuge. It provided hope. That must be crushed.

19. Great mastery of language in the use of synonyms, antonyms, allegories and metaphors. Even in this foggy road you guys drive there is a lot if interesting things to learn.

20. We evolved to live in small groups, where everybody knows everybody. Even in lager greek city-states if you do not know someone personaly, you still know that person.
    In modern city if we are not reculse or something like thta we are surrounded by familiar people much less time that we are surrounded by strangers. Stress, feeling of threat. All those preople are potential enemies or invaders your instinct tells you.

21. I'm willing to bet these guys are friends on PS4.

22. Neuroticism & social anxiety are hell to live with.

23. I'm really worried someone checked out on YouTube. He uploaded two videos as a goodbye. I'm sorry if this isn't the place for this. Please keep going.

24. Well, that's one way to mitigate the risk of having a video taken down because of its title.

25. Good stuff. Interesting conversation. When it comes to people I think there are 4 groups. About 75% are common simpletons that don't know or care to know what's going on and blindly believe what the evening news tells them. The next 10 percent are the neurotics/weirdos and extremists types who will do all the political stuff for free if necessary. The next 10 percent are intellectuals and talented people that actually create things and organize society. Finally the last 5 percent are the leaders/business people that actually control everything. The SJWS and white supreme types are only really 10 percent roughly of society.
