Migration is in the spotlights. In elections in many European countries, the UK and America, it has become one of the most prominent issues. Positions on the subject seem to be hardening, and emotions often dominate the hard facts. Both left and right are repeatedly guilty of spreading fake news. That is why I want to pay attention to it in this two part episode of my TH-cam channel. I do this ...

Man is just an animal among other animals. That was one of the most shocking messages Darwin had to tell to humanity. Did we accept this message? And if so, what does it mean? For instance; do non-human animals have the same rights as human animals? And if not? Why not? Thinking on this we encounter a lot of intriguing philosophical and psychological topics.

Van een carriere site: Zorg minimaal dat je iets beter bent in iets waar je baas niet goed in is.
Als humanist vind ik dit nogmaals uiterst interessante en waardevolle informatie, super mooie realistische perspectieven die goed te volgen zijn.
En dierenliefhebber overigens. De verhouding tussen mens en dier is ook een ontzettend belangrijk thema natuurlijk. Prachtige uitleg.
Werkelijk fantastisch waardevolle en interessante materie, van harte bedankt hiervoor!
Dankjewel. Fijn te horen!
I need to remember that part about hunters pushing prey off cliffs with fire and genociding other spieces for the comparison of human nature and mind over instincts
did any of the holy books mentioned clouds and a elder figure? well, discounting the one with monkey gods as these somehow stayed in the slave nation with their politheism while everybody else switch to monotheism it seems my question comes from the fact that pictures of god were forbidden and it even created a major split in the church which lead to actual breakage (also bits about Jesus and how much human he was) - so people portaging god as a old man in the clouds were going against the scripture - like a Jew or Muslim eating ham would do so, but would not reduce the number of those that do it
I tried listening to the opposition instead of just staying in echo chamber and it really shakes fundamentals. It takes time for the things like Political Correctness stopped being denied only its part of the law. There is also a lot of misinformation which makes it hard to define what is right and left - everything is alt-right or the new buzz word instead of just nazi. No center and no far-left - all opposition are reactionary as called by communist and progressives - they say this are incompatible yet they cooperate for years. Without reading a lot of books and fact checking, or just having personal experience it is very hard to debunk law-enforced lies while the Overton window moves further left, and still not left enough as the people supporting it says that even their chosen leaders are still too right wing or center middle toast. Thanks for a simple video that is worth repeating what is conservatism... although I just started watching 3h video how evolution of sex attraction is capitalistic money trick, but I stopped after one hour when the multiple genders were brought up.
very good video shame its not being promoted by YT
Lukt het nog, om het geluid wat aan te passen?
Heb een nieuwe microfoon besteld 😇

Hey Henk, I would like to give you a like but I'm afraid you might get addicted ;-) Great video by the way!
Instead of "what is the psychology of conspiracy believers?", would it not be equally legitimate to ask "what is the psychology of those who unquestioningly believe the narratives of the CIA/EU/BBC/WHO (insert other lofty authority here)?" If not, why not? I contend you are actually begging the question, in the sense of the logical fallacy. You assume that the "labeled" are in fact "wrong" without actually proving that they are.
You are right, you can always debate whether the one or the other is misleaded - and acting as a conspiracy believer - or that he is in fact objectively right. For me science and logic are the ultimate litmus test, which of course doesn't mean the powerfull organisations you just mentioned are always right. They contain people with political agenda's too, who sometimes are out to hide the truth; but for me they are the exeptions untill proven otherwise.
Fascinating. Are you familiar with Robert Wright's "Why Buddhism is True"? He argues that Buddhism is basically evolutionary psychology.
Fascinating. Thanks for letting me know. I didn't know about Robert Wright, but I just ordered two of his books about why buddism is true and about the evolution of God.
@@henkverhoeven1256 It was Robert Wright’s book The Moral Animal which turned me on to EP.
@@Philotus I’ll start with the first two. Maybe after that the one on moral evolution.
I watched 3 hour long video about Kennedy assassination that convinced me that it was not an inside job, The fact that the guy was working alone on the previously failed assassination or that it was possible to make these shots within the time needed, ect. which took the first hour did not convince me - it was a simple fact that the magic bullet was caused by the fact that nobody paid attention on how the seats were placed within the car which is available for audience in museum. So a fan-made game where nobody was able to create the magic shot was due the lack of knowledge and technical error on building the model of the car in the game. It is more of a conspiracy why there are people that keep on fueling its existence than the story itself. as if profitable to have people believe in flat earth - I thought I heard that CIA sometimes invest into fueling stuff like that the same way recent alien videos were promoted. If someone is truly interested in the topic they would eventually try to look it up and see if its real and possible - but most people do not and just say they are skeptical about the official story.
about the aborted fetuses conspiracy I still don't get how we are constantly cloning two aborted babies without any issues caused for testing - even if the first successful cloned cell was in the 50s, which I originally though was much later. It would be much more cost efficient to simply use the cells from babies that planned parenthood provides on daily basis - we already know that the foreskin from babies in USA is used for beauty creams making the procedure that would not be allowed if it was about girls to be upheld up to this day. For me this conspiracy of aborted babies used for fanatical human test just is much easier than a company having a monopoly on cloning 50 years old neverborns
UK government after 28 years admitted to the contaminated blood scandal that caused people to be infected with hiv and hepitatos C.

I heard Bonobo females use group rape as form of getting the beta males in line. Is it true? Cause that would put a stick into wheels of concept of peace through matriarchy taken from bonobos.

Are the gender findings still true with the original doctor was a sick crook? Is "gender" as a social manifestation of personality fitting into the stereotype still good diagnosis? You showed the bell curve distribution so are those not just the problems of boarder to the end of distribution? With the amount of hormone experiments on large scale we perform I wonder how much all the mental divergences are not just results of adding hormones during pregnancy similar to the claim that vaccine during the child development can interrupt it.
The "raise yourself by bootstraps" approach is usually forgetting about part of society - seeing guy without legs nor arms flipping tiers doesn't say that everybody can be so positive and have the drive. Suicide is an option but DNA and organism made out of it doesn't like it even if they are defective - its rather assisted suicide that we go for nowadays like mother hedgehog eating her younglings before running away. We lack the meaning living in our brick/concrete castles like rabbits, glued to colorful screens with higher color definition that our eye perceives - are we on peacock island without a real predators? Is it mice utopia? The next generation feels like it would be our last or will the numbers change as a revolution to the state we left our grandchildren?
It would be nice if we had the politicans and spokepeople ("activists") as people that are patrioits that care for their country and want to implement best solutions to the people: from libertarian right to have best part of religious solitary with practices and autonomy in choices from socialist left to have the people in worst situations in mind and allowing them to get the help This way the countries we build could be efficient and reduce the chances of abuse of the system - but from what the main narrative gives is crazy people on left that wants to end world at their generation and conspiracy nuts on every corner expect techno-fascism. The quality of politicians is going down along side the death of pathos in everyday life.
If the positive embracing of a trait was negative in effect is it still positive? Let's say acceptance of necrophilia or cannibalism and institutionalizing it to accommodate this needs from people afflicted with these let's say with premortem agreement similar to donation of body for science.
I know it sounds racist to say but if the environmental situation is what allowed to create better civilization then by the same merit it created the genetics of the humans that were part of it - which means colour of skin adjusted by sun, shape of nose adjusted to heat and moisture, ect. So if Australia was Europe then Australia would have been Europe - but it is placed in different place on earth. North Continent creating this but only on higher packed with humans landscape with rivers and such still does explain why native Americans did not use wheels as even anti-racist google says so.
I do not think biological explanations are needed to explain differences in culture. Only 10.000 to 12.000 years ago farming culture emerged, this later causing the big differences between regions in the world. These periods are too short for real genetic differences (evolutions simply doesn't work very fast). So the parallel between cultural and genertic evolution is limited to absent. At least: this is my opinion.
@@henkverhoeven1256 Does this 10-12k still applies to our plastic brains? Did our brains not adjust to reading quite recently so people are able to do it without mouthing every sentence? Our hands still have the same number of fingers and same goes for the length of our fur, but the tools we develop skyrocket or are we assuming that someone 1000 or 2000 years ago would be able to invent the same things given access to education early in life?
@@Wolcik3000 It's a complex question you are asking and I do not know the exact answer. If you use models of Darwinism and mainstream genetics, evolution doesn't go that fast. But why can we read? Or write? Is it some spillover from other functionalities? And if so; which ones? Or do we have to look at epigenetics? That might shed some light on the questions. But most I read about it, is just wild guessing and post-hoc explanations, so I don't use it as explanatory arguments myself. But it is challenging, so say the least....
@@henkverhoeven1256 Well, it's theorical thing as with the example given at the end - we do not have access to the brain of someone from 1-2k years ago to check how much it has evolved or not. We know that the head size is due the brain size so the number of c-sections enforced could accelerate the evolution as we can now have larger head start ;)
200 years ago? Of course I meant 2000 years ago.
Well put as always but wrong on the point about blacks taking on the culture of the slave owners. Sowell argues that the slaves took on the culture of the poor southern whites who would not have owned slaves.
You are right. Thanks for this added information.
This one got me stuck on to watch list... I had two jobs at once got enough money to switch appartments to a bigger one (already sold the old one and have only 1/3 credit left), but for some reason after renovating I was not feeling the mood for more self improvement - to look for better job or do books... but deep insight that once I get the good habits rolling again I will be back on track, so I'm here again on this fun channel to up to date with lectures :)
Welcome back again!
It doesn’t seem like you’ve actually read Marx
Ev psychique, you know that field is just taken serious by nobody, so I won't waste my time on you either.
I personally think you've framed this way too binary. Your critique on prophets is great, but after the initial critiques you start acting like prophets are always completely useless. I think prophets are just as necessary as wizards. If not all prophets, then at least a lot of the ones that have had meaningful impact in history. Prophets stir up conversation, force politicians to think and talk about whatever they are screaming about. They put problems which the majority of our population aren't directly affected by on the political agenda (example: XR on the highway gives a voice to all the people in the global south who are already reaping the consequences of climate change largely caused by western countries.). After that's happened, I agree, the scientist NEED to get their voices raised. Now that we're talking about the problem again, the scientist need to be able to give their advices and have it be heard by everyone so that it, like the prophets, cannot be ignored. They need to work together; which they already are, XR is on the highway to advocate and popularize research done by wizards which states that our government has not upheld it's promises to decrease fossil fuel tax cuts. Sometimes we need screamers (prophets) to give a voice to a group otherwise too small or underpowered to scream for themselves. Wizards are so necessary, but we need our screamers to stir things up sometimes. Also, you claimed that prophets are the reason a conversion to nuclear energy has not happened in the last 50 years, this is partly true but we must not forget that this pushback is largely being done by the enormous fossil-fuel industry lobby that does not want to lose it's power. (who might have a lot of influence on activist-agenda someway or another, true) one more thing: whatsup with all the left-wing right-wing framing? Since when did we become a 2 party-system in the Netherlands? I hope you can appreciate my critiques and I would love to discuss them in depth with you. With kind regards, Hermen Horzelenberg A former student of yours
Hi Hermen, Thanks for your elaborate reply. Of course you are right in the binary thing. I have pictured them both a bit extreme to clarify the concepts, but in reality a lot of people and organisations are somewhere in between. This however doesn’t effect my critique on prophets. They tend to cluster in groups, and the bigger their numbers and powers the smaller their intellectual flexibility, and we see dogma sets in. This even more when celebrities and movie-starts step in; then you know it is just the next fashion statement. Of course XR did a great thing by uncovering the huge tax cuts big fossil industries cash. But why keep blocking roads? Just say the things that are wrong, make politicians think about it. Now to me it had become more of a communion of virtue signallers. I really respect people working on practical solutions. In the end only technology can save us. Interesting point you mention about the fossil industry blocking nuclear energy. I have heard this before. But is this really true? Do you have more factual information on this? Wish you all the best. Proud to have students like you!
@@henkverhoeven1256 Very true, the bigger the group, the less intelectual flexibility there is. I have joined XR (sorry :p) and a political party in the past few months and I have noticed that there is a lot of discussion in the party groups, but a serious lack of discussion in XR. It's quite the echo chamber in there sometimes. Which is logical, maybe even essential for a movement that big & ambitious. Why block roads? Because we (=people who want serious climate action) have tried just talking, for many years. I believe the fossil industry cuts wouldve just gone under the radar or mentoined at a family dinner every now and then if XR hadn't picked this up like they have. This way, politicians wont be able to ignore it and will have to talk about it, because the people now all have their eyes on it. Ill admit I don't have a factual source for the lobbying at hand, I will try to find one in a bit. Thank you dor your elaborate response :), it's very refreshing to have such an insightful discussion about this. Kind regards
Even most Christians are not aware of what the original Christian mystics taught and gives only reasons to make us really happy with ourselves and everyone, and love and respect Who we all really are, regardless of appearances that but seem to contract it: “This is the work in which we may be doing the works of Christ, for even our very believing in Christ is the work of Christ. It is this He works in us, not certainly without us.” ~St. Augustine, Homilies on John, Tractate 71 (John 14:10-14) "I will restore you to yourself, when I shall have restored you unto Me." ~St. Augustine, Sermon 73 on the New Testament "He rightly returns to himself, because he departed from himself. For he who returns to God restores himself to himself, and he who departs from Christ rejects himself from himself." ~St. Ambrose, Catena Aurea, Luke 15:17 "Blessed be God, for so bountifully providing for us that He even bestows on us His very Self." ~St. John of Avila, Finding Confidence in Times of Trial: Letters of St. John of Avila (p. 139).

The origin of gender dysphoria is the subconscious memory that we are not really these bodies.

very similar religion to scientist it seems, but I only watched the second video, but I don't know how it connects to gender dysphoria.

Very interesting video and especially the point that were talked about. While a lot of things made sense and I do agree with, at least to some extent, some parts I simply don’t agree with. Overall, I genuinely enjoyed listening to these more critical points about culture and society of these days. “We don’t want our leaders to have big inspiring visions. We don’t want to strive for grand, transcending stories that can lift us up but at the same time demand sacrifice from us.” 2:36 - 2:46 While I agree with the notion that people long for quick, easy solutions that have no cost or compromise I don’t think it’s true that people don’t long for them. People will always long for the speaker that can voice their opinions with charisma and a loud voice that reaches all. However, people aren’t stupid. People know there are costs to change, change never comes free or without any compromise. Yes, it’s true people want the painless solution with the best outcome but this falls more under the populist category than it does under safetyism. “Besides of the drug we give them, of which we are unaware of the long-term consequences, we tell our youngsters they are helpless victims not able to change this fundamental condition they are stuck up with." 6:56 - 7:08 I don’t see this same level of victimization you see. Yes, maybe people think they have less control over their situation than they actually do but I don’t see it happening as often or as intense as you do. People with mental conditions such as ADD, ADHD or ASD have these conditions and diagnoses for a reason. Are some people misdiagnosed? Perhaps, probably but they are not told they are helpless victims of their situation especially not by medical professionals. Maybe they are by their parents/other primary caregivers or their peers but this issue would lie much more in the disinformation side of things than it does victimization and/or safetyism. “It implies the idea people have the right not to be confronted with ideas they might find offensive or they disagree with. A very patronizing tactic of so-called ‘intellectuals’ to protect people of minority groups. I just call it censorship.” 7:56 - 8:12 People do or do not have the right not to be confronted or offended depending on what way you spin the story. People are allowed to have their views and opinions regardless of outside influence or even evidence proving the contrary. People always have the option to believe and pursue which they find believably regardless of how absurd it may seem. Take the flying spaghetti monster as an example. That being said, I think this issue/statement comes down to the questions if people SHOULD have this right or not. This in and of itself is a complicated and difficult issue because you have opposing values. The question is a balancing act of letting people in their respective (world)views and confronting them with evidence of the ‘real’ world. To illustrate the concept of this problem I’ll use a metaphor. When elderly are retired they receive the AOW, a paycheck for their old days. Purely objectively speaking, this costs everyone money and limits our resources which technically is not efficient. I believe this is the same issue, albeit in a much less extreme scale and outcome, is at play with safe spaces. Do we let people believe what they want, possibly letting them believe false ideas or do we confront them with the truth that may not even impact anyone at all. “Suppose someone is saying to you: “Wow, your English or Dutch is really good!” You can interpret this in two ways. The first one, the way the proponents of microaggression will encourage you to do goes as follows…” 18:21 - 18:35 Two parts of this, and the sentences after this specific statement, I have to disagree with. First off, I don’t think the term ‘proponents of microaggression’ is an accurate way of representing this situation. Nobody is a proponent of microaggression, only people who acknowledge its existence and want to make that clear to the outside world. People don’t actively believe or identify themselves with microaggression. ‘They’ don’t encourage you to think this way. If by ‘they’ you mean people who talk about and ‘expose’ possible microaggressions, I find it extreme to say they encourage you to think a specific way. Most, if not all, of these people encourage you to think more critically about mainstream comments and their possible meanings and interpretation. Could some be extreme in this way? Probably, but this doesn’t mean that the term of microaggression or ‘proponents of microaggression’, to use this term to clearly illustrate who and what we are talking about, are actively out to seek fault in every sentence being said ever but to enable people to look more closely at our language.

The image was the image of the soul, the spiritual essence of God, not the physical image. God has incarnated in many chosen species, leading by example his large and troublesome family. It is the bastardization of the word of God by selfish materialists that has hidden the truth of spiritual science so long from the last chosen species of the Gaia experiment

Kids coping other kids perceived as successful kids and using them as role models instead of guidance and example of adults makes so much sense now
father almost 40, mother just past 30 have a child - she finished pedagogical education at university. Now they don't sleep with their baby, but have her in separate room with camera and heartbeat monitoring under sheets - very calm child most likely doesn't even know its possible to successfully ask for more attention. Modern times, moderns solutions.
Right. Sometimes modern times know best. Sometimes not!

What is your opinion on the work of Bjorn Lomborg?
I think we should be carefull ignoring the work of hundreds of scientists saying we are in a serious climate crisis and we should (try to) do something about it. But dissident voices like Bjorn Lomborg are always important and we should not ignore or ban them. I think Mill is right when he said as many opinions as possible should participate in the evolution to truth.
