@Drewmer MRooster12 dude! You just blew my mind! Thanks for the advice! #GitRDone

Then you wasted another minute typing your opinon

@@user-ig1ew2kb8t 😂😂 it’s true, we all don’t know wtf we’re doing here

Agreed, another byproduct of Prussian Education System (Factory School Model) also known as obedience training. Seems like the government as a byproduct of agricultural/pastoral revolution will always be in need for more consumers, wage-slaves and cannon fodder regardless of ideologies such as antinatalism based on consent.

@@uvwuvw-ol3fg Yes, not to mention the fact that society itself necessitates productivity in its population, otherwise there would not be any society, it would be an anarchical type system where everyone is fighting for their own right to survival. Do you think we might be approaching a far more decentralized system going forward or is the opposite bound to happen eventually with the rise of technocracies?

@@stevenkoja5 Hard to avoid any cognitive biases but so far there seems to be a constant push towards quantity over quality and social atomization in this natalist culture. Might not be the answer hoped for sorry since the question feels beyond my scope at the moment.

@@uvwuvw-ol3fg Agreed, at this point it is hard to know where we are headed, we are sailing in uncharted territories...

Hey man, beautifully put!

So true.

Yeah. Lately if you watch film and TV there’s heaps of ‘content’ but I don’t really feel people attempting to achieve something artistic, inspirational or deep. Just forgettable ‘content’

@@Fantabiscuit I’m glad I’m not alone

i believe you are confusing productivity with creativity. weird that you mentioned art and architecture on regards of productivity and not the countless tech gadgets and consumer products, not to mention the software apps.

That’s not productivity that’s adhd bro 🤣

@@clapbutton3284 you're probably right but I haven't always been like this and no adhd signs before it's just ever since I kinda became addicted to my phone. I have heard that adhd starts from very young age and is common among kids but I have only noticed this in myself lately at 24. PS why the fuck everyone uses "🤣" or "😂" in every comment? I mean if it is funny people will laugh and if it ain't funny your emoji won't make it funnier.

@@FB-FILMS phones are actually known to trigger adhd in adults. I meant no ill will regardless, have a good one

@@clapbutton3284 Yeah I think you are right.

This is what happens when you run from reality by any means afforded to you. Enjoy it while you can.

Increasing productivity, means I can increase my means, which means I can spend more

@@jondoe9759 and you need to do that continuously and then Life ends. You never had to pause and appreciate life.

@@hardy2175 Who said that one couldn't?

@@jondoe9759 after a point it's diminishing returns. One can be a lackadaisical, coasting grasshopper - just not a really stupid one. So many hard-working ants around me are stressing out & developing health problems from it: high blood pressure, chronic depression, pavlovian fear, etc

Now expand that out to the parasitism of crony capitalism (intermediate socialism) and its resulting negative effects on the structure of businesses.

Man you misunderstood it. The "alternative" you gave is still within spectrum of productivity. What they talking about is that such approach is all-together wrong

X2

it's okay

Comedy Bang Bang

You’re thinking of “efficiency.” Productivity denotes production.

@@JHimminyNo, I am not. But I appreciate the similarities in concept. Efficiency is a factor for productivity. But I am always primarily focused on the outcome, then the process.

We have focused so much on the innovativeness craze that we have forgotten to stop and enjoy life for once. It is like going out for a jog in nature just to finish the jog instead of doing it to enjoy the fresh breeze and nature.

@@stevenkoja5 So true. I even catch myself getting stuck in that mindset from time to time.

I know it’s no good.

This makes me think of that Edward Abbey quote where he made the statement :"growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell." It doesn't specifically refer to this situation, but one can translate it well to what is understood here with your statement.

I think it goes hand in hand.

Chicken or the egg argument

At the same time, they’re pressured to do what they do because they can (we let them work us)

Nailed it!

Bingo. The economy as presently constructed does not have the thriving of human potential as its main goal, but rather the exploitation of all capital (including human capital) to produce more capital. This of course comes at the expense of our planet and ourselves...

Yes the german words as newly coined in meaning vex me. What is your take on " Dasien" as his ideosyncratic usage? Is it "yesfulness"? Whether negative or , I suspect , enthusiastic embrace.

Why's competition needed at all? Did Einstein have a great rival?

@@beingsshepherd a challenge, himself

It can be 1, 2, or 3. Humanism, which is (2) only works if you are one with the community and every action you take as a humanist affects the other.

He said giving is the social norms we are thrown into. That is not presupposing a god. Our social norms are created through experience, not from an external entity.

Maybe both?

Yeah, I think it’s probably a little bit of both

Capitalism is about infinite growth of capital. It's truly dehumanizing

To what end? Dust to dust.

what's the point of productivity if you can't enjoy the world and the products of your work in it? Capitalistic productivity isn't about the people, this is the essence of alienation

"Efficiency" has no reality except the relative: towards what end and to whose benefit?

Haiti and South Africa are as they are because of European and American powers abusing them. In the case of Haiti, those foreign powers didn’t like Haiti being ruled by the only successful slave rebellion. I’m a retired American living in Mexico, and when the Haitian refugees arrived in Tijuana to attempt to enter the US, which refused them like 4 years ago, they didn’t even look like refugees. They were clean, well dressed, and didn’t start asking for handouts or live in tent cities - unlike the Central American caravans. They immediately got jobs, Mexican girlfriends, and homes. They began to participate in Tijuana culture. And they didn’t even speak Spanish or English, but French Creole…

@@tribudeuno LOL, do you know how and when Haiti got it's independance? They slaughtered their French colonisers in the Haitian Revolution and in 1804 became the first independent nation of Latin America and the Caribbean, the second republic in the Americas, the first country to abolish slavery, and the only state in history established by a successful slave revolt. Yet despite all of this and more than 200 years of independence, Haiti has remained a giant cesspool. Japan in the other hand had two nukes dropped on them in WW2 (among many other horrible things that you could easily read up on) yet was able to recover in only 40 years becoming a first world country and producing some of the most advanced technology in world. And no European and Americans where holding them back ever since WW2, so what stopped Haiti from doing the same in the 200 years that they had? And Tijuana, in drug cartel controlled Mexico, isn't exactly a place known for being clean, free of crime and productive, so no wonder that they were able to pick up girlfriends and "fit in" with the culture there quite well, lol. 🤔🤣

@@tribudeuno LOL, and with South Africa, we could spend all day talking about there... 😱

@@ohlawd3699 … Yes… it was the launch pad for Mahatma Gandhi… You know, the guy in a loincloth who defeated the most powerful empire of his time without firing a shot…

@@ohlawd3699 … Like I said in my first post, Haiti was constantly prohibited from real development by European and American intervention. They couldn’t permit a successful black nation to be an example to other black populations, particularly to American black populations… Japan would have never been an expansionist empire without the US threatening it out of its isolationism in the 19th Century. Japan then saw - erroneously - its need to become a military power also. I say erroneously because all empires fall, all of them. Just as the US is currently in the free fall of collapse due to its expansionism… “You must never THINK of conquering others by force. Whatever strains with force will soon decay. It is not attuned to the Tao. Not being attuned to the Tao, its end comes all too soon”… Tao Te Ching “To the conqueror comes a conqueror”… Gautama Buddha America is also responsible for the drug war in Mexico. A lot of money is being made in the War On Drugs by The Complex. Portugal has resolved the drug addiction problem by legalizing them all. What you resist, persists. But there’s no money in that. If the US legalized all drugs, the cartel leaders would be forced to sell hot dogs on Avenida Revolucion in Tijuana. But what do you prefer?: Be around a drug war, where the one drug cartel is killing members of another cartel; or the situation in Los Angeles where neophytes in a street gang are forced to kill people at random to prove themselves? Daily, these gang members are deported to Tijuana, but don’t form up into gangs once in Mexico. 17 years in Tijuana, and I haven’t seen any street gang activity. The US is the violent environment that fosters violence, since it is an empire. Look into the history of MS13, and you will see how the US created what National Geographic has call The World’s Most Dangerous Gang…

wrong. a bad leader has a direct impact on the productivity of the people they’re managing. you seem to be taking the view of hours in= productivity but that isn’t the case at all

@@corypluhar505 No. That is not my view.

Or there is not enough shared context. He is making a lot of references.

Sometimes it is better to read and research more before writing a hot take. 'Joining the Nazi Party' was mainly a pragmatic decision on his part in his role as dean of a department at a university... That aside - what he liked about the Nazi party was that it 'woke up a sleeping nation'. If you think as deeply as he did - you might well find yourself into the 'new and exciting' Yes - he wrote correspondence with generalisations about various racial or cultural groups...often in the anthropological. Rhetorically, it was a horrible intro by Lex. Sean did a great job

@@stephenmcnamara8318 It's been virtually impossible to defend this take since the Black Notebooks were released. Heidegger became an anti-semite at some point in his life despite his best friend and teacher, Husserl, being Jewish, and his later partner Hannah Arendt also being Jewish.

@@thembluetube Under contemporary public or american understanding of anti-semite - completely agree. But I do know just how prevalent anything he wrote there remains in non public thought and discourse throughout the world I know my old Prof Figal publicly distanced himself after that was released...understand too...but everything in there I expected would have been.. Sean is a Prof at Harvard - a place that also had its share of blatant anti-semitism - well beyond ww2...and Yale was a refuge. If before that was released you were holding a sliver of hope that exacrly that was not in there, you were blindly naive.

@@stephenmcnamara8318 you Used Figals Arguments, i knew it. But to say he just used fascism to promote his philosphy am therefore is no real beliver politically naive. Still a great Professor.

@@othergroup How about Whether or not he was a Nazi never interested me. I think 80yrs on we see similar capacity for horror or evil in many more regions and cultures - and the 'never' in 'never again' is proving very short. I understand the public demands positions be taken - i find it boring compared to the thougjts
