It makes me curious if there is any data that proves this though. There's probably loads, but because of how everything seems censored nowadays, I've never seen it. What are some good sources to check out that talks about that? Funnily enough, I told an acquaintance of mine the other day about my life goals and he told me that I should try LSD, as well as all the good things he's heard of it. Not that I'm going to, but I'm now infinitely curious about it.

@@spoonman9584 So, there has been some MRI imaging done recently about LSD in particular, i forget the details, but effectively what the drug seems to do is revert the brain back to a more childlike, connected state, one more akin to what is seen in early childhood when the brain is willing and ready to make all sorts of connections that it is not used to making.

@John J Keaveney YARR HARR FIDDLEDEEDEE YOU ARE A PIRATE

@John J Keaveney interesting idea

Is this whole thing an April fools’ joke? I’m genuinely confused. I had made a mean comment earlier but I realized replying here might give me a chance to interact with you directly on a personal level, so I deleted it out of goodwill remembering that content creators are people too. I don’t agree with the premise or the conclusions at all. The hippie movement did not by any means begin counterculture in America, and like other underground trends gone huge American counterculture both tolerated the movement and continued indifferently after its passing. I also found very disingenuous the way Google and Facebook’s roles in the state of things on the internet now were glossed over. The fact that someone could make such grand claims about openmindedness while blaming a single company for the modern world’s ills and failing so critically to study its roots, is staggering to me. The way Steve Jobs is lifted up in this video as anything more than a visionary businessman contributes to the cult of personality built up around him. As usual, the accomplishments of Wozniak’s brilliant engineering mind are overlooked. The fact that Jobs’ obsession with eastern medicine led him to eschew treatment for cancer and hasten his own death is a testament to the caprices of his “ideals”. The tik tok montage was the best part of the video, and I watched it several times. It genuinely opened my eyes and made me regret looking down on the app and its users.Watching those lovely young people all doing the same meme together at the same time made me realize the subtly individual spin each one put on their iteration of the meme in a way that seeing them one after the other never could. That their data is possibly being collected by the Chinese government (to what possible end?)isn’t as sad to me as the implication that someone could take the time to put together that montage, and not realize the subtlety, diversity, and creativity in what they were looking at. Even furthermore, that they instead have the gall to hold it up as an example of conformity. The sheer irony of you using an iPhone the entire time in the video... Is this all a joke? Did I get trolled hard? Or... are you actually serious?

@@447GHT The goal was never to say one company is evil or to even blame a company at all. Its true that Jobs couldn't have done it without Wozniak, but the truth is, Wozniak wasn't driven by the same vision Jobs was, infact he was perfectly happy at his job at Hewlett-Packard before Jobs convinced him to start apple. Jobs was undeniably inspired by the counterculture movement and the artists that came of it, not only that but at the same time, cyberlibertarians like John Perry Barlow who were also inspired by the movement, formed their own visions for the internet. Apple created tools for the mind, culminating into the iphone, the universal device which laid the blueprint for every other smartphone and smart device today. As a result, the internet of websites was replaced by the internet of apps. These apps have proven to be detrimental to the mental health of a growing number of people, but beyond that they have created a culture of conformity and consumerism that is larger than any other in history thanks to the accessibility of these devices. I didn't talk about Google, Facebook, or Microsoft as much because while there is a lot to say regarding their comeuppance, they didn't create the iphone and they weren't tied to the counterculture in the same way that Apple was. Im glad you liked the montage though. For what its worth, I do think I could have improved on a lot for this video and in the future I will try to do better. but the fact that you watched that far means that it was at least entertaining enough to hold your attention.

You both make good points and I wish the internet of apps that is youtube now too would allow for better discussion and discourse.

I mean it was... certainly interesting. "Lit", however, depends on who you ask, and where/what they visited. And god help you if you're actually gay. (I mean I guess society as a whole also rammed that shit through our heads too, but still)

@@MastaGambit "it depends" is generally true for anything. All I can say was that at that time a lot of stuff like social media, video streaming, online gaming, etc was still fairly new as being accessible to the general public. It was kind of a golden age in the sense that things weren't as tightly controlled like it is now. Lots of entities were still figuring things out. There wasn't generally a formula for everything and online didn't necessarily rule your entire existence in the way it does now for the most part. I had lots of experiences that just don't fly in today's modern internet setting. As for the gay thing, I hear ya but I went to a high school that had a fairly high number of openly gay students and they generally weren't hassled for being gay. It was still high school so it wasn't a utopia or anything but being gay wasn't an issue, we had a few trans folk there as well and this was in the midwest.

I once was away from internet for a 10 days. No smartphone or computer, just 10 days reading books and sleep. It was so weird, i felt absolutely disconnected from the world and i loved this. What a shame i cant really live without technologies being software engineer and musician. I wish one day i can hide in the cabin and never go back to the world

It's having access to the internet while you're outdoors that's the problem. Personally, even when I had a smartphone, I didn't use the internet on it. I've always stuck to the old school only using the internet when I'm at home, on my PC. When I'm out and about, I don't even think about the internet. I have known people who are addicted to the internet though and they've told me that they need to use the internet, even when they're outdoors, or else they start getting anxious. It's sad that smartphones have created this mentality.

I don't really NEED the internet, and I think most people don't as well. But certain behaviors have been strengthened by apps and the like, to make it seem like you can't go without them for even a day. Like you're going to miss out on stuff. I certainly get this a lot here on KZfaq, which is probably my main source of time wasting. I watch a lot of KZfaq content and I follow really good content creators, and after a few days I feel like I need to catch up on so much stuff and that makes me want to watch as much as possible. I think the same goes for any other thing on the internet if you dwell on it for long enough. I think the secret is realizing that it's not really necessary, and the things you think you can't live without aren't exactly that essential. I probably need to manage my time spent on the internet more efficiently and start cutting out some that time wasted on mindless entertainment and read stuff or practice new skills.

@@joshuaroa8503 I can relate. I am big on self help and business content on KZfaq and I always get this FOMO that I need to watch the next video to make my life better. And click bait titles like "must watch" doesn't help either.

But why? The only time i use internet on a phone at all is when i go out of town and i just used it instead of computer, mostly for stuff like printing plane tickets and whatnot. Just use a desktop dude. A proper one, that you have to sit down and use it. That way youll only use it if you actually need to.

Anyone who'd be surprised definitely should do so.

The problem is how to convince people of doing that. The internet has a huge grasp on today's society, to the point where some people would probably go crazy without it. And it gets extra hard when all the companies, marketing people, influencers all converge and make people think this way of living is the only way of living, and if you don't, well, you are not cool and shit.

People would rather watch others go outside on social media than do it themselves. I think that builds a sense of self doubt in a lot of soc media users. "Oh I could never do what they do", if you will. Self doubt is a huge problem now a days, and people are aware of it. They just choose to do nothing about it but make "relatable" memes and post about how trash they are. Hell that tiktok song in the video was a perfect example.

@@IcidLink I think you're going about it the wrong way. Being an individual is not about rejecting what everyone else does, it's about doing what you want to do regardless of other people's judgment.

For a while I've been reading books, getting into nature, doing puzzles, trying to cure my social anxiety... not to "prove" I'm better than anyone or anything, but just because the internet isn't what it was and just being around it (and feeling the difference) has been making me so depressed. I didn't really notice it until lockdown. I was only born in '01, but have older siblings and was pretty "net precocious". I really miss the old internet. This video finally helped me realise why I used to be able to surf the web for hours, and each day felt new... but now? I can barely stay online because it's so draining and upsetting. Things just feel out of place, I can't explain it. It's so weird trying to get offline, go outside... only to find "no one" there... so where am I supposed to go now if I want human connection?

In many places you are censored for not having the correct opinion or saying the wrong thing, and it does not need to be homophobic or racist for that to happen. It stifles discussion and creativity in communities because if a person says or does the wrong thing, even accidentally, their ideas are discarded even if they have merit. Yes, back then some people said racist things, some people said homophobic things, but imo the sharp reaction has been worse than the bigotry, and I say this as a black person.

@@happysmash27 But it has still spilled over. I can't get half my old games to run even via emulators it's a big pain. For example Zoombini's Mountain Rescue no longer works and it did a year ago. On Dad's AMD computer it still works so obviously something to do with Intel changes going on. Intel has been in a LOT of trouble after major F'[ks which they got caught in.

Thankd man, also im glad your channel blew up, inspiring knowing how hard you worked to get there

@@GlinkBetweenWorlds Thanks! I'm actually only 9 days away from hitting 10 years of daily uploads right now!

Every time KZfaq has "imporved" something they've only helped to make my experience less and less pleasant. Even things as benign as just changing a button's placement on the page. I mean fuck stop "improving" shit like that. Imagine you go from the 2021 Corolla to the 20222 model and they're like "yeah We know you got used to shifting from the floor and activating the turn signal with the left side lever, but we decided to switch both up and now you're gonna have to shift from the steering collumn (I know it used to be a thing, don't @t me.) and turn the turn signal on using the floor lever." and then the 2023 model is like "yeah we decided to put the turn signal directly on the door now and if you wanna put your turn signal on you just gotta have to press the new pedal we implemented." Constantly changing your site's layout for micro improvements that never actually made the site more ergonomic just served to drive people insane.

He didn't say which fossil he chose though :(

They are definitely connected

Perfect comment

agreed. It's worth mentioning that out of the hippie movement came more devoted spirituality like the Jesus movement. In many cases, hippie experimentation simply acted as a prompt for people to seek truth and wisdom.

Fair enough. Of course I didn't include every aspect of Steve Jobs in this. I dont expect everyone to fully agree with my perspective, or else it wouldn't be mine!

@@GlinkBetweenWorlds Thanks Glink, it is important to maintain individualism like you point out in this video. Everyone should have disagreements or else we will be conforming into a hive mind.

This stuff is common knowledge at this point. It wouldn't add anything of relevance to the point the video was making.

Yeah the psychedelics point kinda came out of left field

I wish I grew up in a time where this piece of shit internet wasn't around in the first place.

@@dividedstatesofamerica2520 it sounds crazy but I wish I was born in the mid 40s, I feel like they were the last generation to live freely (in England anyway). There was the hope after the war. The way that England pulled together during the blitz is crazy when you compare it to how people have complained through lockdown.

@@lolaa6971 Word up.

@@lolaa6971 Nah, you would have spent your best years in the thatcher era hell.

@@StrazdasLT THANK YOU GOD i'm so sick and tired of all these know-nothings around here acting like they were born in the wrong generation or some shit

Right! It’s like a sociology lecture but it’s visually interesting and well written and edited..his voice is pleasant..

It could be a reference to his all fruit diet as apple is usually the first fruit to come to mind when thinking of fruits

Yes just look at the logo... closely...

A culture based around the free consumption of psychedelics still sounds better than our current culture based upon prohibition and control.

@@cultofthevoid5677 every culture tends to encourage and discourage certain things, the point is why. Why is alcohol and coffee so ingrained in our society while psychedelics aren't? It's because one is less interesting for the goals and objectives of our society, coffee helps wake up at certain times focus on work, alcohol helps you forget about your problems for a moment and socialize, but psychedelics make you reevaluate your own goals, detaching you from the work-consume cycle, not that it can't be productive, but our society is still focused on creating and maintaining worker-bees since pretty much the advent of schooling, and psychedelics present themselves as opposite of those goals. If our society's main goal was actually the well being of individuals in the society, we most certainly wouldn't have a culture so focused on alcohol consumption rituals, one of the most destructive and easy to over consume drugs out there.

@ayy lmao I wouldn’t go as far as to say psychedelics are essential and a human right, but I will say that it’s a human right to be able to consume them as you wish. The government should not be able to dictate what I can and can’t do with my mind and my body. I’m not even particularly progressive overall, I just think this is so obvious and so ridiculous.

thats my favorite thing to do

Where do I find like minded people. I'm tired of being alone.

@@tehparol same. I quite literally don't have any real friends. And this covid situation just made it worse.

@@tehparol join Glinks Discord!

Appreciate that, I pushed myself to make something I can be proud of and more importantly to have an impact on people. Seeing comments like this brightens my day.

@@GlinkBetweenWorlds okay so you spread a message, which is a good thing. We do have a problem. But how do we solve this problem? There should be a place to think about this problem. What if we had a moderated discord or forum somewhere where people could post ideas. You could pin good idea's and then maybe people could add their opinion on it. We can do anything as humans, we are very smart. We just need good teamwork. And that's something we don't have on the internet. We have random idea's, often very good, thrown in the huge sea of youtube or tiktok or whatever. But we never truly think together about this idea. For example, you have an amazing video about a huge issue, I think about it later today and then I just forget about it. But if we had a focused group thinking about the idea, maybe we could find a solution, together.

@@GlinkBetweenWorlds I may just be one, "currently barely getting by financially so not even a patron" voice among the masses, but I'm HARD seconding the above comment; this video really did have an impact on me. The line you drew along psychadelics and their public perception was itself sort of an epiphany for me. I have been wanting to try psylocibin for a few years now, and am borderline infuriated by my lack of connections allowing me to do so. Not saying you were wanting the ultimate takeaway here to be "get out there and take shrooms, kids," but that part specifically really tied it all together for me. Jobs may never have had a fraction of the impact he did if not for his own experience with psychadelics. I can't even begin to imagine the possibilities if it were to become more accessible for people like me, who see what Apple and companies like them have become and how they have utterly ruined so many aspects of our lives, and tricked so many into going along with it. As for me, I have no idea what my options are, but you have inspired me to try a whole lot harder to find my own solution to these problems. If there is indeed a light in this darkness, I intend to find it and share it with as many people as I possibly can.

@@GlinkBetweenWorlds keep it up 👍🏽

Not really

Yeah uhh not really asking idk what you meant by this comment

Nice job missing the point of the video

He was never following trends.

He is the trend.

Don't be too pessimistic about it. You can always just not use the apps. Use them however you want.

@@axelnick1 The problem with that is regardless of me not using, everyone else who I talk to use it. Even if I'm not exposed to a certain kind of culture, if everyone I know is then not that much really change, except for me.

@@ramontavaresdacruz2256 Yeah, that's why I don't talk to many people in my own age group. I know they get a bad rap, but I get along best with boomers, especially biker boomers, because most of them are totally disconnected from today's popular culture.

I think I saw some Stein's Gate too :3
