It's insane how brainwashed Democratic supporters are... they call out republicans all while being the same brain mushed extremists as the party they hate.
I'm German, and when I stumbled across a PragerU video for the first time, I initially assumed it was affiliated with the (highly renowned) University of Prague. _Boy_ was I wrong.
35 years old here. My parents told me in the early 2000’s to go to college and get a good job. I did 8 years air force, and received masters degree in cybersecurity. I am successful in many ways but now my parents call my education “liberal indoctrination” even though it was a science degree. I teach as an adjunct part time, and they shit on me doing so… i teach network security not politics! Man they are brainwashed.
We like to call that a TMP “ Tactical Minority Placement” Prager U is up there with American Universities when it comes to making sure you know that they value being seen as a diverse group. But if either wanted to actually prove it, a Real University would show you its tenured professors, and pU would show you its writers room…. Both would be a sea of white.
"not everyone in Africa had the best life" If the most advanced alien civilization kidnapped me, took me to their super advanced world, forced me to worship their Alien gods, and made me do backbreaking labor, and treated my like chattel I wouldn't say "Oh well at least I live in nicer conditions here!"
would you rather live in Africa now, or America? Exactly. I'd have sacrificed myself to ensure my children have better lives. Try thinking of someone else for a change.
@@jetermoersdorf1011 Thats cool that YOU willingly would have sacrificed yourself. FORCING other people to do the same is utterly immoral. And even IF I grant you this brain dead argument: It is literally meaningless. Robert E Lee and his backwater ilk are still evil for enslaving people, slavery was still completely immoral, and it (As well as several other racist policies following it) have objectively made the lives of black people worse. So its literally a meaningless distinction.
you forget that they would've been do backbreaking labor anyway, but in worse conditions. the majority of africans at that time were slaves to other africans to begin with. africans only stopped enslaving each other because europeans told them to. and christianity is much better than their native religions, so I dont see that as harmful either
@@RattlesnakeJakey I think you misunderstood me. Mr. Beat isn't particularly left wing, but I'm sure he would be pegged as far left by a lot of people because he's open minded and honest. I don't think the left is closed minded. They can be sometimes, but it's generally the right wing that refuses to listen to the ugly parts of history.
….The left openly brags about shutting down debate “the debate us over”, silencing dissent, using law fare, threats of and uses violence to shut down people and debate they disagree with or that undermines their worldview. They think screaming “racist” is a valid rebuttal or tactic when it’s just name calling. The left us always has been and will always be close minded, dishonest, hair triggered loons.
I disagree. I find the quote disparages actual, valid criticism of the social justice movement by accusing the critic of having a skewed perspective, bordering on gaslighting. It just feels like a pseudo-deep 'gotcha' response to people criticising stuff like 'positive discrimination' (that's an actual thing, look it up), essentially manipulating people into thinking that everything marketed as equality genuinely is, and that anyone who disagrees is somehow impaired in their judgement. A classic conformity play that any progressive movement that is earnest about its message should refrain from IMHO. Real, proper equality DOES NOT feel like oppression if you're an open-minded, well-adjusted person, and if something people call equality does feel that way, you should probably take a second look at it.
Equality is oppression, give a man a fish instead of teaching him how to fish then he doesn't learn himself take a mans fish away and he learns how to deal with adversity. The ones being "helped" are hindered and the ones considered greater than equal become even greater. That's the way I see it anyways
I love when she emphasized that white people fought to end slavery but intentionally leaves out that they fought other white people who opposed ending slavery 🤡
@@xij3505 What's crazy is that the people doing this aren't politically extreme on anything except social issues. They'll defend capitalism with their life even if they are called far left.
It's also disingenuous by stating laws like how many societies had formal parliaments and formal codes of laws. Especially when the British really did it because of the fear of a Haiti like rebellion in their colonies after the faile Christmas rebellion in Jamaica
At about 5:25:00 you started talking about how teens in Oregon can access testosterone just by walking into a clinic. Just wanted to share an anecdote. I have a transgender friend and as an adult (over 21 years old) he had to have years (I think 2 years) of psychological testing and therapy to be able to get a doctors prescription for testosterone and that was in very liberal Portland, Oregon
I'm a transgender man in California and there are some clinics that allow informed consent, but you still have to be an adult for that so I have no idea where PragerU is getting their data regarding kids having easy access to hormones. I went to support groups and, eventually, therapy when I was figuring my identity out. In my case, those clinics that do informed consent didn't even take my insurance so I would have had to pay out of pocket for visits and possibly lab work too depending on which lab the clinic used even if I wanted to avoid going to a therapist. Testosterone is also a schedule 3 drug so it does make it a little harder for trans men to get their hormones as it is classified as a controlled substance and therefore there are some restriction like your prescription only being able to be refilled once every 30 days where they rarely make exceptions for and requiring a valid, government-issued photo ID when picking up the prescription. Got into a situation this year where my license expired due to the social security office dropping a major ball in not updating my info in their database even though I got a new card with my updated info in the mail which caused delays in being able to get my license renewed in time before I needed my refill. I had already had a total hysterectomy with an oophorectomy so I no longer produce estrogen and have no other way to get the required amount of either sex hormone without injections so I was panicking because I could develop osteoporosis if I go too long without the minimum amount of estrogen that the body needs to preserve bone health. Luckily, my endocrinologist was able to set me up for shot visits at the clinic I ended up finding that took my insurance, but it worries me a little that there are no exceptions for these types of cases where you have a verifiable history of taking a prescription that is a controlled substance that is critical for your health. There is actually something called the WPATH (World Professional Association for Transgender Health) that most medical providers use as their standard for transgender healthcare. It has been a while since I have actually looked at it, but I would imagine that my medical transition experience still aligns with what the WPATH advises. For hormones, medical providers require a letter from a therapist and, for surgeries, you would need a letter from your therapist and a letter from the physician that prescribes your hormones (this can be an endocrinologist or a primary care physician) for each surgery you want to undergo. Nowadays, surgery can be done before taking hormones, but the more common route is hormones then surgery. If someone opts to do hormones first, the WPATH advises that the patient be on hormones for at least a year before doing surgery most likely due to the rapid physical changes that occur within the first year on hormone replacement therapy. It is important to note that these are the standard practices for adult transgender patients as there are stricter guidelines for children. The main difference with kids is that they often advise hormone blockers, which are a way to delay puberty and have some risks that can easily be monitored and therefore treatment can be either changed or stopped prior to the risks causing any serious problems. Most doctor's won't even consider prescribing hormone replacement therapy until the child is at least 15 years old. The whole problem with the "Why Girls Become Boys" PragerU video is that it is going off the idea of rapid onset gender dysphoria which isn't a thing. It's basically a monkey see, monkey do argument that frames "teaching kids that your gender identity can be different from your sex and therefore there is nothing wrong with that as gender is a social construct" as dangerous for impressionable minds like children. Let me tell you, I have been bombarded by heteronormativity my whole life, this obviously includes my childhood, and I still have no attachment to the label of woman which is why I am a trans man and I am most definitely not straight either. It may not always be the case, but I feel like people who make that argument are either regurgitating someone else's talking points or they are self reporting that they themselves are in denial of their trans ness because I have yet to meet a cis person that believes they can be swayed to "become" trans just by learning about trans ness. I obviously have some bias, but I try to be as objective as possible because I can't possibly know everything and most, if not all, topics have exceptions.
@@sciencegeek1025 sorry that happened to you and thank you for explaining the process. Yes, it’s very frustrating and it’s just ignorance. Just 10 years ago, they were saying all the same stuff about gay people and obviously people are still homophobic but it has gotten exponentially better since when I was a kid. I think it will just take time for people to stop listening to the fear mongering and start advocating for transgender rights. It’s going to get better ❤️ hugs
Because most slaves that were sold to Europeans were not in the same countries that actively enslaved people. The African enslavers weren’t selling their families, or countrymen, but strangers, mostly from the interior of the continents. Africa is a huge and diverse continent with many different cultures, nations and ethnicities. It is foolish to generalize Africa into one homogeneous continent. Ghana and Ethiopia are as different from each other as Spain and Russia are.
@@youdonotseemeno3289 ahh got you, I understand the point now. There is a difference, but by that same rhetoric it’s flawed for African Americans to keep talking about Africa as it’s some amazing jewel when it’s people from Africa that captured and sold them in to slavery, even if it was not their ancestors, which I’m sure also happened. Some kingdoms in Africa during the Portuguese and Spanish exploration of the coast sold their own people.
@@RM-ih6fkwe don’t necessarily talk really good about Africans, there are still tension between Africans and black Americans. Not all Black Americans were sold by their ancestors but by neighboring enemy tribes
@@jsnicks7189 yes, correct, but not all were sold by warring tribes but rather by their king or leader. It’s a multifaceted issue without a simple snswer
38:48 "Our lives meant very little to our ancestors" Your ancestors weren't selling you into slavery. Your ancestors' enemies were selling them into slavery. This is a big difference. Calling all Africans your ancestors is disingenuous.
Thank you. They always phrase it this way. "Africans" were just selling themselves into slavery apparently. By this logic, the Romans were selling themselves into slavery too
@Svenskanorden 1 The peoblem is that she generalizes Africans. By doing so, she puts her enslaved ancestors on the same levels of the chiefs who sold them. They may the equal in the color of their skins, but certainly not in the content of their characters.
trying turn a L to a W is pretty sad. the fact that vietnam is healing and thriving under their *own* people's rule is a spit to the face of american imperialism. you wont hear much about vietnam except how much american troops we lost and the collective PTSD as the only impact the war was brought on America.
You could claim that by the barest of technicalities, the US achieved a settlement that preserved South Vietnam just like they intended. You could maybe, sort of, argue that the conquest of the South that almost immediately followed was a different war that the US didn't participate in. I wouldn't argue this; the actual long-term policy gain for 60K dead was nil. But you could argue it and be correct in a cheap way.
@@NegaRenGenX2gay2lift Maybe you haven't noticed that Vietnam and the US have made huge strides in reconciliation recently, and have mutual interests in the region.
I found it very educational to hear Mr. beat talk and comment. A surprising large amount was confirmed correct by him, but Prageru oversimplifies too much and makes strawmans.
1. He is left-leaning, so no, he’s not a centrist (watch more of his videos). 2. What does skin tone have to do with Com U nzm. Even if it did, people of his hue created the ideology, so he would be More like (if he were), not less likely.
When Owens talks about modern day slavery, she uses the broadest definition of slavery. What's interesting is that she excludes the U.S. from this definition. Owens would never acknowledge that inmates working for slave wages are, in fact, slaves.
The thirteenth amendment permits servitude as punishment for a crime. Crimes committed by said inmates are voluntary. That's not to say that criminals are signing up for slavery, but that indentured servitude is a known legal punishment for crime and is thus voluntary as a consequence of other voluntary action.
Teachers do in fact have little control over what they show in the class room. I remember my history teacher had a degree in military history, but he only did one slide for the American Revolution. Then, I'm not joking here, around three for the Civil War. When we asked, he said he had no choice, and that he was as miserable and distraught as we were over this.
As similar story, when I brought up the subject to my own US History teacher, she said she would very willing, but didn't have nearly enough time to dive deep into these subjects and flesh them out for the class.
That seems so weird as a Dane. In Gym (Our version of high school, which in voluntary.) our history teacher told us in the middle of our second year, that we had to learn 9 different history "topics" 3 nationally, 3 in Europe and 3 internationally and also that 3 of those topics had to be before the renaissance, 3 between the renaissance and the Great War, and 3 after WW2. Otherwise, the teacher had full authority to choose and he even gave us the possibility to name a few possibilities that he might choose. One of those actually being a suggestion of me and my friend, China after 1949. It seems weird to think that the autonomy of teachers in the classroom would be so limited when I am used to that.
You actually missed something in that trans episode that PragerU did. They tried to claim that more AFAB (ie born female) youth identify as trans than AMAB (ie born male). The way they did this was by comparing the rate of surgery requested. The thing is that mastectomies in AFABs are much more common than breast augmentations in AMABs because non surgical treatments can cause breast growth but can't cause breast disappearance. Since top surgery (generic term for all breast related surgeries undergone by trans people) is by far the most common surgery, and its much more common for FTMs to have it than MTFs, counting the number of trans people by counting the amount of surgical interventions will massively undercount MTFs. They do this to sell a narrative of the trans lobby attacking poor defenseless girls.
that's actually not strictly true. this isn't talked about a lot for some reason, but prolonged testosterone treatment can cause break shrinkage. i had DD/E cups and now I have As/Bs bc of T.
yea. also you need to cnosider that trans visibilty has also increased majorly throughout the past decade, especially of transmasculine people (previously it was majorly just trans women shown - often in a negative light) and the initial number of surgeries that was being requested 10 years ago was very very low - like 32 or smth, so obviously if you compare the numbers without giving context, it will look extremes.
Actually, gender is something that 3 and 4 year olds understand. As soon as kids learn "girls rule and boys drool" or any of those other playground rhymes, they know that gender is a thing. They learn boy colors and girl colors and identify with them as soon as they can pick a color they like. Kids learn about gender from the moment they are born. Parents hand them a doll or a truck toy and tell them how they should dress, which pronouns to use, how they should play with their toys, and what name they should go by. Children are never too young to learn about gender. We (the adults) passively and subconsciously teach it to them just by interacting with them.
actually, pink is not a popular color selected by boys or girls. girls overwhelmingly favor blue over pink. and favorite color changes over time. does gender change over time? hmm... maybe reconsider your logic here.
I don’t mean to be anti-trans but isn’t this a direct argument people who hate trans people use, and shouldn’t it not be this way. Gender is a social construct as you said. Just because I’m a boy doesn’t mean I have to play with trucks and vice versa . Can’t I use what you said as an argument that trans behavior is anti-feminist as it directly consolidates the idea that a women or a man has to act a certain way for conformity of societal norms. You said we “teach gender” as if it’s a good thing. Maybe this teaching is the root cause of patriarchal society.
Saying parents are pushing gender they should be is something crazy to say when you’re raising toddlers. If they’re a boy/girl you raise them like the boy/girl that they are
@@jokelo2231I really think you misunderstood the comment. They werent saying it's a good or bad thing, they were just pointing it out. I agree with you tho, I think we're all on the same page here. Interestingly, I never even thought about this. I was 6 and refused to wear a pink shirt because it's a girl color. I didnt wanna play with barbies because it's a girls toy. I never even realized how young we understand gender
What kind of toys do you recommend? When I was a child we played with puzzels and we played together girls and boys, played cards and running around woods and I had all together 3 dolls and I still don’t know a trans person or gender confused person, we were all poor and when I think about my childhood we actually had gender neutral games cards, chess, puzzels. Insinuate that parents ruin their children by buying them wrong toys is just evil and is not true. Children in a normal environment don’t think about gender and normal community will not push sex on prepubescent children and as puberty hits there are years to come to explain to children why those natural changes happen. This what your kind does to children is just so immoral on every possible level and I’m sorry for your children who are forced to be sexualized and traumatized and deprived from childhood inocence that me and my generation got and I’m woman and mechanical engineer and my 3 dolls didn’t harm me in any way 🎉
I love how ur literally just a Kansas moderate guy who admits to not knowing much about trans issues, and even u were like hmmm idk that doesn’t sound correct. Honestly even if you don’t know much abt that stuff just having decent critical thinking skills is usually enough to make u realize this stuff is being blown way out of proportion. I’m 22 and I’ve been trying for the last year and a half to get on hrt, and they act like it’s a McDonald’s drive through lmao.

@@LogjammerDbaggagecling-qr5ds confirmation bias.... All they need is to find one weird case, and it confirms all their suspicions of some evil takeover.
Actually, it is. Go to the sub r/asktransgender right now. There’s a pinned post that’s 4 years old compiling a list of the “informed consent” clinics in America. The post defines that as a clinic where you don’t need to have a letter from a therapist, nor 1 year of living as the opposite “gender”. You just sign documents and you get your prescription that day. In some US states, children as young as 14 can do this without parental knowledge or permission. Then read the files and watch the zoom meeting recordings from the WPATH files leak. The WPATH doctors admit on video that talking to a child about informed consent is “like talking to a brick wall”. It goes right over their heads. So it seems like these folks say one thing when in mixed company, and when amongst themselves, it’s a completely different story. And don’t take my word for it, go read these things for yourself. By all means.
PragerU videos are like “here is a little known fact that if stated in a vacuum suggests that my agenda is righteous. The opposing agenda? Well here’s a time someone was mildly inconvenienced by something related to that belief. In summary, here’s a quote from a random Wall Street analyst that has almost no relation to our topic”
Here's my ad lib: Black people are arrested at higher proportional rates compared to white people. The "Radical Left" wants less people to live life sentences in jail, but one time a robber was released from prison and he robbed again. Here is Nate Silver saying "There are some circumstances in which the state must intervene in the free market". I made just as much sense as Benis Pragur.
@@BarbellThor Some leftists maybe but claiming that all of them are like that reveals your huge bias. On the other hand saying this about PragerU (see, specifically PragerU, not the right in general) is just demonstratably true from the video.

5:20:00 they asked the parents of the kids what the kids thought. As a former kid, there are many things I didn’t tell my parents so it’s easy to conclude that the kids may have felt it sooner but didn’t tell their parents immediately
Even if there are kids who do tell a lot of things to their parents they may not even understand what gender dysphoria is to convey to their parents Kids are likely to report change and if they feel they have stayed the same they usually wont bring it up
Plus I heard a lot of trans people exaggerate how young they were when experiencing gender dysphoria because it usually takes a long time to get to the assessor who can tell them if their allowed to use hormones or not and they want to seem as trans as possible

@@mrbookish6701 you were never a conservative....you get mad because a black person thinks differently or a jew ..... yep you are a liberal... the party of race baiting and the klan..look that historic fact up
I am a lefty, I admit my bias completely and try to work on it, but I despise PragerU. Although, I do really think that the lefty approach to the ‘soft sciences’ is honestly less biased than right-leaning ones. That’s because the right (generally) tends to naturalize things like social heirarchy, economic disparity, the posture of international relations, etc. By that I mean that they’re generally much less interested in explanations and more willing to say ‘that’s the way it is.’ The left tends to historicize those kinds of phenomena, seeking to find explanations about the material conditions that led to the way things are. I don’t have a ton of evidence for this but once I acknowledged the “naturalize/historicize” dichotomy I could see it all over the place, and PragerU is definitely guilty of that kind of bias.
First, I personally believe we are ALL biased. You can't be a human and not be biased, again that's just my opinion, not a statement of fact. And as someone who has been around a while, who has some personal and familial experience with dictatorships and the right wing being in charge of the political and societal system, if I have to be "guilty" of leaning in one direction or another, I will pick the left every time. I've seen what can happen when the extreme right wing gains control of a country (and keeps it for 40 years), no thank you, I will pass on that world.
@@RS-hs5lq those who have experienced the same kind of left leaning dictatorships would say the same about leaning right. Maybe we need to stop viewing dictatorships through what kind of dictatorship they are, and just view them as dictatorships. Understand that bad people and bad ideas come from all political sides. We instead of being focused on tribal left vs right, we instead should focus on which politicians support basic fundamental rights such as freedom of speech and the press, and which ones are not regardless of their political swing. It is those kinds of rights that prevent a rightist or leftist dictatorship from developing.
@@evancombs5159 Totally agree that there is NO shortage of bad people, and sadly way too many of them (regardless of political ideology) end up rising to power.

It is also worthing noting at 40:29, Candace is specifically focusing on people being brought over to the United States rather than total amount of slaves that would end up in American custody. Because the amount brought over was smaller, but if you look at the enslaved population's growth up until 1865, it is significantly larger.
@@tBagley43 it isn't even that. they literally completely ignore the number of people born into slavery on american soil. and over time, that was the huge majority. simply ignoring that number fucks over any sort of debate
Not only that, but using 'number of Africans shipped to the US' is a very manipulative statistic since by the time the US gained independence the Atlantic slave trade was slowing down anyway and abolitionists in Europe already existed*. Obviously if the trade was slowing down at this time, the number of Africans actually arriving in the US will have been relatively small. The problem is, of course, all the descendants of shipped Africans over the past couple of centuries were already in the US and made up a large majority of captive individuals by that point. *You could also argue that Thomas Jefferson was an abolitionist, in some twisted sense. He participated in the slave trade, but was well-known for not being a fan of it and even wrote a condemnation of slavery in the initial draft of the US constitution, which was later removed to avoid offending the southern states, and you know, all the other founding fathers who owned slaves. It's a very strange part of history to look at with a modern perspective.
@@jurgnobs1308 Yeah, it's whatever number is tangentially related and would support their argument the most, even if it is used out of context and ignores key facts like the growth of the slave population on American soil. imo Mr. Beat is way to generous with these bias ratings.

@@frederickschulze8014 exactly. it's intellectually dishonest. mr. beat didn't quite drive that point home. he gave them points for using correct numbers, while not paying enough attention on why this specific value was used instead of argueably more relevant ones. i mean no disrespect to mr. beat but in some cases the ratings were definitely too good. i mean, this isn't one of his students getting something wrong. it's a channel posing as an educational program spreading misinformation. this is how good propaganda works. use correct numbers out of context to imply something else than they actually mean. it's frustrating to counter because it isn't just straight up wrong.
In response to a comment made by the woman in the party switch video "Why does the south now vote almost entirely republican? Their values changed" one might say... they switched.
Didn't the French demand Haiti repay them for the loss of profits from the slave operation there? Doesn't the Haitian government still owe that debt? I dunno I'd not give the French any credit for ending slavery in 1848.
Not saying they deserve all the credit, but they did have other Caribian colonies (les Antilles in French). I've only really heard about them in French class so I don't know much from a historical standpoint
Slavery within France itself was abolished in the 1300's but that was really referencing slavery of French or Europeans aka "whites", but had the spillover effect that blacks from its later slave colonies taken to France were immediately free. An example is Thomas Alexandre Dumas, son if a Haitian slave and her French planter owner, who was taken to France by his father and given an upper class education and upbringing, enrolled in the French Revolutionary Army, rose to rank of General in command of 50,000+ French troops, was a top officer of the infantry in the Egyptian Expedition, and was the father of French author Alexandre Dumas, writer of The Counte of Monte Cristo and The Three Musketeers. Haiti only paid of its "debt" to Citibank (which had loaned it the money to pay France) in the 2nd half of the 20th century. Haitian president Aristide challenged the legality of Haiti's payments to France and demanded a reimbursement. He was promptly ousted in a coup orchestrated by France and the US.
They kind of paid it off or not but still it was stupid and petty for France to expect former slaves to pay them money when they barely get started on their newly claimed land from them. I also disagree with the genocide against French subjects who supported against slavery or sympathic to the slave (including free blacks, mixed race, and white french children). People were very nationalistic and racist back in the day. 😢
I feel the main context people with her views miss is how slavery impacts our country today. People being slaves in ancient Rome does not have as direct a connection to issues like red lining and all of its down stream impacts. It just feels like a lot of these issues exist in these bubbles with very defined boarders to some people. It feels like they view slavery as "lincoln freed the slaves, and then a magical rainbow ending racism washed over the land" and cant seem to fathom how laws didnt change peoples opinions or beliefs.
Its very good at pretending to make you a knowledgable person. Where do you go from after knowing that "white people ended slavery" tho. Theres no call to action. Kinda just feels like the premise was a video to alleviate "white guilt" which is ... basically guilt over not being knowledgable enough in the subject to know about modern talking points. A lack of knowledge leading to right-wing myths like critical race theory being talked about in schools. Makes me genuinely wonder who profits from that tho 👀 does prageru honestly believe half this stuff? Or do they make this stuff to scam their unsuspecting audiences
Reah, Roman slavery was VERY different. For instance, there was a system in place where slaveowners were at least a little incentivized to free their slaves because of how liberti gained the right to vote and were socially expected to support their former master. Slaves in Rome were not also an explicitly ethnically-defined group, which changes the character of American slavery. Slavery in the ancient world WAS immoral, horrible, and brutal, but to draw straight parallels to American chattel slavery with ancient slavery is to ignore a WHOLE LOT of context.
@@christophercheck1590 sometimes, yes sometimes no. Roman was not a monolithic culturing. Early republic was very different from late republic. Just as the Imperial reigns had differences. Sometimes/elements of Roman slavery was extremely similar to chattel slavery. Slave mines in particular would basically chew slaves up and spit them out. The Goths sold their children into slavery for dog meat. Rome as and entity was around for 1000 years. However that’s also what in part is blamed on Romes collapse. It’s listed among most historians factors as to its collapse. The US’s unwillingness and inability to reckon with our own slavery legacy is what is helping tear this republic apart. To hand wave it like Candace does is stupid and short sighted. We can disagree on how to deal with that legacy, but to dismiss it out of hand is so stupid. Also side note France Ended slavery as part of the French Revolution in 1794, and confirmed in 1795. while is was re-implemented it does make her point about England being first moot.
People who considers telling the truth "indoctrination" are really just insecure in their own world view. I mean, if a parent is afraid that telling kids that something that happened happened will lead to "liberal opinions", maybe...think about what that says about yourself for two seconds. "Letting kids know that the Philippine-American War IS A THING THAT HAPPENED is indoctrination"
Friend is America a racist country why do public schools need to teach that their are multiple genders that is pure opinion. You think it is nota big deal to teach these controversial stuff. Wow I am African American friend parents love their children math is the least biased subject. The most difficult subject to make subjective. Every person and teacher have a world view and political agenda do you agree. Even if that world view is natural to the teacher. Most teachers are not Republican their bias is huge. Do you really believe that non biased exist. Do you believe that America is a racist country.
@@michaelreynolds8204 It is not pure opinion, it's a simple biological reality understood by anyone with an interest in biology that goes beyond "this is what my intuition has told me since I was 5 and I've never challenged it". How would teaching about wars in your own country's history be controversial? Unless of course you equal "controversial" with "information that threatens the glorified, idealized idea of my country", which would be blind patriotic nationalism; something that's way more controversial. Realizing that reality is neuanced and complicated is an important part of understanding the world and makes for a more informed population making more informed descisions. Being non biased in important, but being "non biased" is not the same as "hiding information because it could be more damning to one political side's arguments than the others". The left tends to be a bit more critical of the military in general, the right tends to be more embracing of it...does that mean that any information about wars should be banned from class rooms since any teacher who glorifies the military would be "biased towards the right", while any teacher who criticized the military would be "biased towards the left"? All I'm saying is that school should try to teach the truth as much as possible. You're suggesting that controversial things should be hid from studens. I know who I consider more biased in this situation... And to answer your question: Yes, systematically, the U.S is still a racist country. Less so than in the past, but still not completely fixed. Doesn't matter if the racist laws changed decades ago if the effects of those laws are long term and still in place: - Red lining artifically created areas where poor, african-americans were concentrated - People in these areas weren't legally allowed to get mortgage loans until the late 60's - Meaning the effects of red lining was an artifically created wealth inequality between poor, black areas and richer, white areas. - The removal of these laws didn't mean a removal of the wealth inequality - Public schools in the U.S are generally funded by property taxes in the area - Because black people in poor areas weren't allowed to get mortgage loans until recently, the schools in those areas were and still are inproportionatly underfunded - Underfunded schools tends to lead to students not being able to go to college, leading to them not making a lot of money to enrich their local area, making the cycle of inequality continue - Meaning kids still, in 2021, in poor, previously red lined areas, don't have the same opportunity to succeed just because they happened to be born in "the wrong neighbourhood". Even though the law that created the problem was removed decades ago. That's just one example of how the system itself is racially biased because of historical racism.
Mr. Beat, I'm disappointed that you didnt address the inaccuracy of "all Americans right to vote". (Post Civil War). Women had a much longer fight. When I was 18, our local bank would not let me have a checking account because I was a young woman. I was able to open a joint account with my 18 year old boyfriend. The end result.....he spent all my money. 😢😢😢 It wasn't until 1974, that women could have the right to their own checking account. Six years later, my bank still would not honor the law.
1:16:18 ironic how poorly mr beats take on the russia ukraine situation has aged when he says the video warning of russian aggression in ukraine has not aged well. obviously I don't blame him for not being able to predict the future tho
I kept looking in the comments for something like this. Also I wonder if he would partially defend Russia's annexation of Crimea today after what's happened as saying anything remotely positive about Russia is very taboo right now.
To be fair if you look at the 2014 annexation of Crimea it was largely uncontested, most Ukraine apart of the peninsula defected to the Russians and only 1 or 2 Russians got hurt. Donbass is a whole other can of worms. In conclusion during the annexation of Crimea they were essentially welcomed with open arms.
2:26:50 as someone who grew up in an extremely conservative household I had no say over who I was friends with until around the 5th grade when I got put in public school (previously homeschooled) and was able to make some friends of my own accord out of my parents’ easy oversight. Before that point my friends were either selected by and introducers to me by my parents, or were kids from extracurricular activities who I showed interest in and my parents approved of. This approval involved my parents interviewing the kid’s parents about their religion, entertainment preferences, etc. My parents continued to control my siblings’ friend selections and attempted to reassert control over mine after we moved to a different state and I resumed homeschooling. Due to growing up like that I’ve kept up with parental behavior in homeschooling groups and conservative leaning private schools in my area and this sort of control over who their kids are allowed to spend time with is extremely common, frequently continuing throughout all of high school.
I still can't believe that is a real thing that happens. School is free there right? Surely it is?! I can't think why you would ever pass that up to do a half assed job at home, wasting so much time which could be better spent working, and severely handicap your childs education. I can only imagine how retarded your social skills are now for not getting a chance to experience people outside of your immediate circle. It's bad enough at the single sex high schools. I attended one briefly and they had almost zero concept of how to even begin a proper conversation with the opposite sex. It was on such a deep foundational level too. No amount of explaining would break through the hardenedshell of ignorance and wishful thinking they had developed. Anyway, hope you sorted it all out in the end. This is why so many kids these days are going no contact with their parents. It's like a wet bar of soap. The harder you try to grip it, the further it shoots away out of your hands.
@@D64nz My social skills were pretty awful for years, however I’m fortunate enough that I was able to learn proper social skills fairly quickly after that first time my parent’s grip on my interactions loosened. I definitely agree with your assessment of non-coed schools, they can be extremely damaging to one’s ability to healthily interact with and understand the other massive group of people. This only gets worsened when considering that many of those schools also advocate for extremely traditional gender roles.
As someone who went to a private k-12 school and church, I didn't have much control over who my friends were- everyone I knew was regligiously continouitist with my parents. I didn't really get to connect with people like me until college.
I always thought it was so funny that my parents and Christian community growing up warned me of brainwashing when I went to college. It was quite ironic as my interactions up until I was 18 were limited to my white family in a nice white neighborhood and my majority white church and my majority white school. I was not allowed access to the internet on my phone until I was eighteen, I was not allowed to listen to anything but christain music, I was not allowed social media, my parents supervised my friendships to discourage non christain kids and my understanding of US history was soaked in white savior tones…and honestly I was a white savior every time I went on some stupid mission trip. My first year I went away to a University my courses were focused on chemistry and mathematics, and thus I don’t recall any discussion on Christian’s or conservatives. What changed my mind about my whole foundation was the environment college created for me. It allowed me to think for my own by teaching me to research EVERYTHING. I am so thankful for being able to break out of that bubble. I am constantly relearning things and at times this can be overwhelming. But what’s heart breaking is seeing the lack of any opportunity to discuss a different opinions with my family. Despite their claims that IM the one who is brainwashed
@@maribethmorgan7886 It's all in how you "frame" it. To you, now, how you were raised may seem to be a more accurate definition of "brainwashing." Me personally, I totally agree with that. But, I guess, in their mind, they were simply trying to SAVE YOU from all those horrors of the secular, heathen world out there? They loved you after all and what loving parent doesn't at least try to "save" their children from what they perceive to be dangerous? The sad thing is that chances are good they never themselves got the opportunity to break out of that bubble, and probably neither did their parents and so on. And if someone took the time to trace this all the way back to its start, they would probably find some very surprising reasons why those "traditions" and "values" are so hard wired into their lives. Often times it all started with one powerful person or entity (the church, the government for example) manipulating, or forcing another to embrace that worldview because it was of great benefit to that powerful person or entity. I will never forget, as long as I live, a very short and simple sentence one of my college professors (I believe it was a poetry class) uttered. During a discussion that included the idea of "a savior," he said ... "oh, yes, the only problem with saviors is that if they have to kill you to save you, they will."
I love that the whole video about slavery they just completely avoided the fact that there were quite a few different forms of slavery. It’s almost like they are trying to not confuse their simpleminded followers. They also skip over the fact that slavery still exists in America and there are actually stories every now and then about breaking up massive slave rings owned and run by rich people.
There is slavery everywhere in the world, the highest percentage of it occurring in the Middle East, and again more specifically, the developed Arab Gulf nations including Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi and the UAE.
That guy makes me embarrassed to be born a Dane. I was too young to vote or even understand politics when he was the PM of Denmark but i would definitely not vote for this guy. People who dislike him often call him Anders Fjog which rhymes with his real surname and means silly or foolish
Actually I think that’s the home team for most of them. The Taliban, for example, are far right, conservative, extremists. It’s a totally different flavor or conservative but really prager and taliban have a lot in common.

History of Slavery - "Why do Americans who talk about American History and try to set a frame of reference for the issues Americans face today never bring up the Persian Empire????"
I was around ten when my mother talked to me about homosexuality in the Greek and Roman cultures. She said it was very common and that some cultures considered sex with a woman to be for procreation and sex with a man was for pleasure. She also taught me that men and women both have a masculine and feminine side and that a man must embrace both his masculine and feminine side to be complete. This is actually a teaching in most warrior cultures. Even in nature, a certain percentage of animals engage in homosexual behavior. It is just not that big a deal.
You should go and do your own research on homosexuality in Greece and Rome it wasn’t as common as they make it to be most of the stories they tell are mistranslations there is an in-depth video on this issue you should search up and watch.
@@zakaraz7698 If it mattered that much to me I would research it, but it doesn't. What does matter is that homosexuality is not contagious, detrimental to society, limiting in capacity to do things or in any other way "bad" or harmful. I do think people, especially young people can become confused about what they are feeling and should not be made to feel bad about how they experiment with those feelings or that they have made some irrevocable commitment to a lifestyle just because of one act, or series of acts. Homosexuality is actually quite common among mammals. That one I have researched. It often increases or even becomes predominant in circumstances of overcrowding or confinement. Cattle cannot be bread naturally in confinement as the bulls become homosexual when confined. Dogs and dolphins will stick it in any welcoming hole. There are many other examples, but the point is: people have a right to be who they are AND young people need to understand that they should not act on every impulse brought on by emotion because we, humans are easily confused by our emotions, BUT that they should not be ashamed of experimenting if they find they have made a mistake. I know that's complicated and people really don't like complicated, but, well, life is complicated. Take it from someone who has lived a lot.
slavery is actually still legal in the US, the amendment abolishing it has an exception for prisons, in 2017, the average daily prison wage in the US was $0.86, in Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, Texas, Alabama and Arkansas unpaid labour is legal
This is true, but not really a bad thing. When you commit a crime great enough for the need for prison time, you are forfeiting your rights. It would be a bad idea to just have prisoners loitering around the prison all day doing nothing. Now, where it might be sensible to object is whether or not prisoners should be able to work outside of the prison for the government or private parties? I would say no because that incentives government to enslave people. Instead, all work done by prisoners should go towards running the prison as efficiently and cheaply as possible, for example growing or raising as much of their own food as possible.
@@evancombs5159 prison should be about rehabilitation not punishment, punishment is the reason theres so many reoffenders, id be ok with prison labour if they were paid good, the average prison wage in the usa is 0.86$ per day and some get none at all, prisons in the us are designed to make profit, not to stop crime, i dont care about costs or efficiency i want people to be treated like people, someone being imprisoned for 50 years for smoking weed once and now has to give up their rights inside and outside prison is obviously bad if you have any shred of empathy, prisoners when released also dont get anything to restart their life, theyre just thrown into the world with nothing, and yall still wonder why theres so many reoffenders and homelessness
Yeah, but him saying the annexation of Crimea was welcomed with open arms was a weird argument as there is several videos and pictures dissaporivng it. Plus it's a weird justification and acceptence of an illegal occupation
@@spiderjerusalem4009I laughed so hard at that. Amazing how quickly his opinions of Russia at time of this video-which weren’t controversial nor minority held positions (despite their let’s say curious relationship with Trump)-could change so drastically in 5 months time.
@@issober0110 false, crimeans openly welcomed the annexation and even pre war poling suggested that the majority wanted to stay in Russia, if the majority of the population wants to be in Russia I don't think it's illegal anymore
@@AryanKhnna the election was rigged, but also it was a choice between joining Russia or independence, there was no option to rejoin Ukraine. Another thing is that Russians, who were a large minority in Crimea pre 2014, mass immigrated to crimea so they ended up becoming the majority. Meaning that they obv have voted that they are satisfied with the Russian government and want to stay.
The idea, Candace, that there are "white countries" and "brown countries" is absurd. Even before many of the world's countries became multiracial due to immigration, skin color did not automatically shift at national borders. Not to mention that Portuguese, Spaniards, Sicilians, and Greeks (European) are often just as "brown-skinned" as Lebanese, Syrians, Armenians, and Azeris (Asian)? Which peoples are "white" and which are not?
Plus the current notion of 'race' is quite recent, the romans idea of nationhood was based on adopting roman culture(romanising) rather than skin color. Septimus was darker than ceaser yet both became emperors.
@@texasgal6201 not really. I’ve been all across Europe, and know people who have been all across Asia and Africa, and never once have I heard of any mono-cultural nations at any time in history or present. There’s always English and American people living in India and Vietnam, there’s always black people living in Europe, and there’s always First Nations people living alongside American/Canadian people and Hispanic Americans. Even if you think you live in a culturally homogenous area, the language you speak and the media you consume is likely still really heavily influenced by other cultures, whether that be a different country’s culture or just the next county over. The only places that are truly mono-cultural are tiny hamlets in the countryside, and even they see worldly visitors from time to time.
@@tylerbeaumont I have lived all over the world, as have many, so I agree that there will be "diversity" in virtually every country, but how is that defined... I could argue that Indonesia is the most diverse country in the world with over 700 languages spoke; as documented by a German research paper that was then used, incorrectly, as a source for an argument that the US is not as diverse as other countries. The comment you responded to also asserted race, not culture, which is a significant distinction.. In China, there are Han Chinese and everyone else. I think that just over 10% of people in China are not Han, but only a small percent (not sure actual numbers) of those are actually not of Asian heritage. Thus, nearly impossible to determine those that not Han based on appearance such as skin color or other physical features; what most people consider to be race. However, for culture and/or ethnicity depending on definitions, the Han Chinese includes many subgroups: Uyghur, Miao, Yi, Tujia, Tibetan, Mongol, Dong, Bouyei, Yao, Bai, and even Korean, to name a few... Actually, having lived in Hong Kong most recently, I can attest that many people referred to themselves as HongKongese and looked down upon those from the mainland... So, while China, Indonesia, India, and many others with large populations are not mono-cultural, they are rather hegemonous, racially speaking, in relation to North America or Europe... And, not to mention, share many common cultural/ethnic traits which might not be apparent to people who have not lived in one of those countries.

If you dare disagree with “The Great President”, you’re now branded “deranged” and a “shill”.
Thank you for this, I immediately sent this video to a close friend of mine who got heavily sucked into the PragerU ideology. Whether or not they’ll be willing to listen with an open mind is debatable, but I’m hopeful.
One thing that is INCREDIBLY misleading in their slavey video is that the ancient Persian Empire actually hated slavery and freed slaves in the territory they conquered.
Didn't they keep indentured servants though? I know it's not technically slavery but it also kind of is slavery. I remember going down a rabbit hole involving this a while back, it was definitely a good change, but it wasn't outright banning slavery if I remember correctly
@@puffinatheart5565 Iranians (Persians) under Koorush (Cyrus the great) implemented some of the first written human rights for people, and they were specifically addressing the newly conquered people in their territory. Also an example would be freeing all the Jewish slaves in Baybylon after their conquest, they returned to Judea. That first video was just properganda filth.
32:13 Actually, Mexico officially abolished slavery in 1829. One of the leaders of the independence movement, Jose Maria Morelos, published his "sentimientos de la nación" (nation's sentiments) where he proclaimed the abolishion of slavery in 1813; it was in 1829 after Mexico was an independent republic that it was codified in law. That was one of the factors of the Mexican American war, the American settlers that populated Texas had slaves, and didn't like that the practice was illegal in what was at the time mexican soil.
Japan also had its official slavery system abolished in 1590. 15-freaking-90. Candace Owens won’t tell you that though, because that would go against PragerU’s agenda :P
Actually, Mexico abolished some slavery. It exempted a few regions, and most people still ended up having slaves in Mexico until it was expensive to have slaves. It was just cheaper to let them go and pay them pennies as the law of slavery said, you had to feed and shelter your slaves. Even though slavery was some what abolished people were kept so poor that it was almost slavery.
On the history of slavery video where she talks about how "we're not taught about the [like 5 ancient empires here] and told to consider their slavery!", but may I point out that in my world history class in Texas no less we are taught about those things, and we spend just as much time on that as we do with American Slavery - The big reason we learn about American Slavery so much is that it was the most recent form of it, and it happened in our own country. If you were to go take an Eastern or ancient history class you would talk about those things in just as much if not more detail.
The argument that the video is parodying is that slavery is not a thing distinct of western civilization or the US, though our focus on the US history of slavery may lead many to believe that. That is, you're both right, it's natural to focus more on American History, but it's important to understand that American History doesn't exist in a vacuum. But, again, I want to emphasize that this video is a parody, or at least a caricature, of that argument. When made correctly, those making that argument will often point out that slavery throughout the many places and eras of the world and its history has taken many different forms, and the form practiced in the US is on the more cruel end of the spectrum. Nuanced perspectives like this, however, don't fit on PragerU. PragerU is all about providing a one-sided argument and, at best, leaving it up to others or the viewer to make the other side and come to a more accurate perspective.
Hey, I dont disagreed we should learn more about American slavery seeing as it is our country. But that is by no means the most recent form of slavery. There are 40 million slaves in the world today. A fact that we don't seem to learn in school
@@shilohjorgensen8651 That's a really good point! I think when I wrote that I was specifically intending to talk about chattel slaves, but I totally overlooked the many-a-ways both developed and underdeveloped nations have continued to practice disgusting practices like this.
It never was, Russia was deeply involved in the Donbas conflict, they have launched hundreds of cyber attacks against other countries - government agencies, parliaments, big corporations and banks, and especially in Eastern Europe including Ukraine also against state grids. They have fought a completely reckless and bloody war in Syria, backing up Assad, killing via airstrikes at least 5000 civilians, but helping Assad forces on the ground with their Wagner battalion and own official troops as through backing them politically and supporting them technologically, to kill over 200 000 civilians, over 40 000 of whom in torture prisons, vetoing UN initiatives to stop Assads prisons and barrel bombings which not only killed civilians, but whose only goal was targeting civilians and terrorizing Syrians into submission through fear. At least making oneself complicit in this butchering. The deployment of the Wagner battalion in other regions of the world, most notable in Libya, Mali and Sudan (backing the President, a now convicted war criminal) are also, yet less far-reaching, examples of Russia‘s military involvement since Crimea!
2:04:40 molecular biologist here. One of the funny things about biology is just how much diversity can occur even in seemingly binary systems. Someone who has a Y chromosome may still have a "female" brain if the NR3C4 androgen receptor (or androgen production in general) is curtailed by mutations. The most obvious example here is the SRY gene which generally governs testis development, where mutations can lead to a range of disorders broadly classed as "disorders of sex development". Swyer syndrome for example might be characterized by having a female phenotype and an XY karyotype due to mutations in the SRY gene. TL;DR Biology is extremely complex and there are a ton of interesting things that can happen on a molecular scale which aren't quite so obvious based on how people look on the surface.
Molecular biology is so complicated that one can have a pH.D and still have very long arguments with other pH.D regarding what appears like obscure subject of molecular biology... And made every doctor outside of the biology department in university go "sorry, I didn't get any of that" after twenty minutes of argumentation.

Right you are. Prager understands quantity over quality is the best propaganda. If he can just repeat the same messages over and over with slightly different salad dressing, the uncritical audience will internalize what they hear as truth.
Candice is narrative on slavery is correct. This historian, either deliberately or mistakenly misinterpret her statement, "white men LED THE WORLD in puutting an end to the practice" - This is factually correct.Britain followed a few decades later by Frannce and the US,, mounted a WORLDWIDE CAMPAIGN , Not only banning the institution for a few generations within their own country, which is all countries have done up to that point before thhem
It is exactly the same. Putin even made the same kind of blood and soil _lebensraum_ speech when trying to extend his gains in the recent declaration of war. Sorry, I mean special Nazi operation.
I'm aware that this video is older than a year, but I would like to point out that at 30:58 when the woman mention that Britain was the first country in the world to abolished slavery is wrong. It was actually Denmark in 1792, and in the Americas the first country to abolished slavery and also the second worldwide was (proudly, my home country) Chile on 1823. I would also like to add that I really love your content Mr. Beat and you seem like an excellent teacher!! Keep going!! ❤
It was actually Japan in 1590. Pretty funny that Candace's argument crumbles even harder when you learn the actual first nation to ban slavery wasn't a white one
Mad respect. As a student and a skeptical and analytical minded person it’s crazy to see how widespread and effectively this propaganda is pushed to teens by the modern right. I myself even fell victim to the pipeline and ended up as a Ben Shapiro fan in 8th grade just watching youtube videos. Thanks for keeping it real.
Yes lots of propaganda on the left and right. Everyone is susceptible, so it's important we maintain some level of skepticism. Would love to see him cover some more channels that spread left propaganda and misinformation.
Guys be throwing around here horseshoes like crazy. There is literally only one side pushing their believes onto children with conspiracies and misinformation and Ben Shapibo is part of this side. There are propagandists on both side, but clearly PragerU's reach is HUGE. For better or worse. Definitely for worse.
I lived in Norway for two years and they start sexual education at about ages 7 to 8. NRK, their public broadcasting company, has a TV show geared to young children that is quite explicit, and would probably be shocking to uptight Americans. It in no way has screwed up Norwegian children. According to many studies it has led to lower rates of sexual assault, teen pregnancy and even rape according to some more recent studies. When these young children become young adults they make more sound choices about sex. The same logic can be applied to teaching young children about gender. As Mr. Beat said gender and biological sex are different things. Teaching kids about such things when they are in their teens is just to late IMO. Parents and educators need to teach children when they still want to listen to parents and educators. Anyway I think people should stop being concerned about personal choices people want to make for themselves. It was like when people got up in arms with gay people in the 80s - are they in your bedroom, how does their sexual preferences effect you?
I want to become a teacher as well and it always scares me when people complain that we are „pushing“ things like tolerance and diversity on the students. As teachers we work with many different students (different skin colors, sexual orientations, gender identities, religions, etc.) so of course we are in favor of tolerance and diversity. We want all of them to feel welcome don’t we?
Yea to the point of having affirmative action, colleges docking points from Asian Americans and giving them to black Americans, giving drug kits to "under represented" folks - which we know lefties call black people, celebrating having two moms or dads, celebrating gay people who go to three bakers asking to put homosexual messages on a cake till they finally found one they wouldn't and complain to the world of oppression, allowing BLM to pRIOTest without masks while businesses who wanted to go mask less got shut down. Such tolerance. Such diversity. Let's go Brandon.

Instead of working to end racism it is rekindling it. If your idea of being anti-racist is segregation and basing your opinions and actions towards others on the color of their skin, you are not anti-racist.

It's really telling to hear a white person say "if you're white, you're automatically seen as racist" when I and many other white people have never been accused of being racist
Yes, but it is worth mentioning that there is some racism against white people nowadays. And the argument to justify it is that apparently you can't be racist against white people. Wich is stupid. You can be racist against anyone. But yes, I've also never been accused of racism. Probably because unlike that PragerU guy I'm not racist.
I hate that stupid saying. You literally cannot pull yourself up by your boot straps. When you say that you are simultaneously blaming the individual and mocking them.
Many people have . That's how the saying became popular. Only people who don't recognize God's law working in their life would reject the bootstrap' argument.
His take about a lack of Russia aggression since Crimea didn’t age well. Putin is using the same playbook as Hilter: measured aggression to expand his nation in the name of uniting his ethic/cultural community. It is an extreme comparison, but Russia is an existential threat to Ukraine.

Slave in Latin was Servus and that remained the case till almost the end of the Roman Empire. As the Empire declined, the rights of slaves increased so much that freeman would sell themselves into slavery to pay off debts. Please note one of those rights was no whipping and no selling such slaves unless the land the Servus was living was sold, the Servus went with the land. If that sounds like middle ages Serfs, you are correct. At the same time true slaves still existed but these were purchased from tribes who raided slavic lands for the slaves and the slavic name for themselves became the common name for slaves that could be sold. Rights of slaves varied over time, with most socities giving slaves more and more rights over time.

I love this quote from Leeja Miller. "Equality feels like oppression when you're the one benefiting from historical inequalities."
I've heard a more simple version of the quote in many places that I like. "When you're used to privelege, equality feels like oppression."
But what is the "equality"? white people, making up more than 60% of the population, getting less than 60% of the jobs? That's what the left wants
I disagree. I find the quote disparages actual, valid criticism of the social justice movement by accusing the critic of having a skewed perspective, bordering on gaslighting. It just feels like a pseudo-deep 'gotcha' response to people criticising stuff like 'positive discrimination' (that's an actual thing, look it up), essentially manipulating people into thinking that everything marketed as equality genuinely is, and that anyone who disagrees is somehow impaired in their judgement. A classic conformity play that any progressive movement that is earnest about its message should refrain from IMHO. Real, proper equality DOES NOT feel like oppression if you're an open-minded, well-adjusted person, and if something people call equality does feel that way, you should probably take a second look at it.
Equality is oppression, give a man a fish instead of teaching him how to fish then he doesn't learn himself take a mans fish away and he learns how to deal with adversity. The ones being "helped" are hindered and the ones considered greater than equal become even greater. That's the way I see it anyways

What the fuck
At about 5:25:00 you started talking about how teens in Oregon can access testosterone just by walking into a clinic. Just wanted to share an anecdote. I have a transgender friend and as an adult (over 21 years old) he had to have years (I think 2 years) of psychological testing and therapy to be able to get a doctors prescription for testosterone and that was in very liberal Portland, Oregon
I'm a transgender man in California and there are some clinics that allow informed consent, but you still have to be an adult for that so I have no idea where PragerU is getting their data regarding kids having easy access to hormones. I went to support groups and, eventually, therapy when I was figuring my identity out. In my case, those clinics that do informed consent didn't even take my insurance so I would have had to pay out of pocket for visits and possibly lab work too depending on which lab the clinic used even if I wanted to avoid going to a therapist. Testosterone is also a schedule 3 drug so it does make it a little harder for trans men to get their hormones as it is classified as a controlled substance and therefore there are some restriction like your prescription only being able to be refilled once every 30 days where they rarely make exceptions for and requiring a valid, government-issued photo ID when picking up the prescription. Got into a situation this year where my license expired due to the social security office dropping a major ball in not updating my info in their database even though I got a new card with my updated info in the mail which caused delays in being able to get my license renewed in time before I needed my refill. I had already had a total hysterectomy with an oophorectomy so I no longer produce estrogen and have no other way to get the required amount of either sex hormone without injections so I was panicking because I could develop osteoporosis if I go too long without the minimum amount of estrogen that the body needs to preserve bone health. Luckily, my endocrinologist was able to set me up for shot visits at the clinic I ended up finding that took my insurance, but it worries me a little that there are no exceptions for these types of cases where you have a verifiable history of taking a prescription that is a controlled substance that is critical for your health. There is actually something called the WPATH (World Professional Association for Transgender Health) that most medical providers use as their standard for transgender healthcare. It has been a while since I have actually looked at it, but I would imagine that my medical transition experience still aligns with what the WPATH advises. For hormones, medical providers require a letter from a therapist and, for surgeries, you would need a letter from your therapist and a letter from the physician that prescribes your hormones (this can be an endocrinologist or a primary care physician) for each surgery you want to undergo. Nowadays, surgery can be done before taking hormones, but the more common route is hormones then surgery. If someone opts to do hormones first, the WPATH advises that the patient be on hormones for at least a year before doing surgery most likely due to the rapid physical changes that occur within the first year on hormone replacement therapy. It is important to note that these are the standard practices for adult transgender patients as there are stricter guidelines for children. The main difference with kids is that they often advise hormone blockers, which are a way to delay puberty and have some risks that can easily be monitored and therefore treatment can be either changed or stopped prior to the risks causing any serious problems. Most doctor's won't even consider prescribing hormone replacement therapy until the child is at least 15 years old. The whole problem with the "Why Girls Become Boys" PragerU video is that it is going off the idea of rapid onset gender dysphoria which isn't a thing. It's basically a monkey see, monkey do argument that frames "teaching kids that your gender identity can be different from your sex and therefore there is nothing wrong with that as gender is a social construct" as dangerous for impressionable minds like children. Let me tell you, I have been bombarded by heteronormativity my whole life, this obviously includes my childhood, and I still have no attachment to the label of woman which is why I am a trans man and I am most definitely not straight either. It may not always be the case, but I feel like people who make that argument are either regurgitating someone else's talking points or they are self reporting that they themselves are in denial of their trans ness because I have yet to meet a cis person that believes they can be swayed to "become" trans just by learning about trans ness. I obviously have some bias, but I try to be as objective as possible because I can't possibly know everything and most, if not all, topics have exceptions.

"Our lives weren't valued by our ancestors."
The Africans that sold people were specifically not the ancestors of African Americans.
Can you expand this point? I don’t understand this. How can they not be, if slaves had to be sold by someone?
Because most slaves that were sold to Europeans were not in the same countries that actively enslaved people. The African enslavers weren’t selling their families, or countrymen, but strangers, mostly from the interior of the continents. Africa is a huge and diverse continent with many different cultures, nations and ethnicities. It is foolish to generalize Africa into one homogeneous continent. Ghana and Ethiopia are as different from each other as Spain and Russia are.

When Owens talks about modern day slavery, she uses the broadest definition of slavery. What's interesting is that she excludes the U.S. from this definition. Owens would never acknowledge that inmates working for slave wages are, in fact, slaves.
The thirteenth amendment permits servitude as punishment for a crime. Crimes committed by said inmates are voluntary. That's not to say that criminals are signing up for slavery, but that indentured servitude is a known legal punishment for crime and is thus voluntary as a consequence of other voluntary action.

That seems so weird as a Dane.

Otherwise, the teacher had full authority to choose and he even gave us the possibility to name a few possibilities that he might choose. One of those actually being a suggestion of me and my friend, China after 1949.
It seems weird to think that the autonomy of teachers in the classroom would be so limited when I am used to that.

You actually missed something in that trans episode that PragerU did. They tried to claim that more AFAB (ie born female) youth identify as trans than AMAB (ie born male). The way they did this was by comparing the rate of surgery requested. The thing is that mastectomies in AFABs are much more common than breast augmentations in AMABs because non surgical treatments can cause breast growth but can't cause breast disappearance. Since top surgery (generic term for all breast related surgeries undergone by trans people) is by far the most common surgery, and its much more common for FTMs to have it than MTFs, counting the number of trans people by counting the amount of surgical interventions will massively undercount MTFs. They do this to sell a narrative of the trans lobby attacking poor defenseless girls.
that's actually not strictly true. this isn't talked about a lot for some reason, but prolonged testosterone treatment can cause break shrinkage. i had DD/E cups and now I have As/Bs bc of T.
yea. also you need to cnosider that trans visibilty has also increased majorly throughout the past decade, especially of transmasculine people (previously it was majorly just trans women shown - often in a negative light) and the initial number of surgeries that was being requested 10 years ago was very very low - like 32 or smth, so obviously if you compare the numbers without giving context, it will look extremes.
Actually, gender is something that 3 and 4 year olds understand. As soon as kids learn "girls rule and boys drool" or any of those other playground rhymes, they know that gender is a thing. They learn boy colors and girl colors and identify with them as soon as they can pick a color they like. Kids learn about gender from the moment they are born. Parents hand them a doll or a truck toy and tell them how they should dress, which pronouns to use, how they should play with their toys, and what name they should go by. Children are never too young to learn about gender. We (the adults) passively and subconsciously teach it to them just by interacting with them.
actually, pink is not a popular color selected by boys or girls. girls overwhelmingly favor blue over pink. and favorite color changes over time. does gender change over time? hmm... maybe reconsider your logic here.
I don’t mean to be anti-trans but isn’t this a direct argument people who hate trans people use, and shouldn’t it not be this way. Gender is a social construct as you said. Just because I’m a boy doesn’t mean I have to play with trucks and vice versa . Can’t I use what you said as an argument that trans behavior is anti-feminist as it directly consolidates the idea that a women or a man has to act a certain way for conformity of societal norms. You said we “teach gender” as if it’s a good thing. Maybe this teaching is the root cause of patriarchal society.

What kind of toys do you recommend? When I was a child we played with puzzels and we played together girls and boys, played cards and running around woods and I had all together 3 dolls and I still don’t know a trans person or gender confused person, we were all poor and when I think about my childhood we actually had gender neutral games cards, chess, puzzels. Insinuate that parents ruin their children by buying them wrong toys is just evil and is not true. Children in a normal environment don’t think about gender and normal community will not push sex on prepubescent children and as puberty hits there are years to come to explain to children why those natural changes happen. This what your kind does to children is just so immoral on every possible level and I’m sorry for your children who are forced to be sexualized and traumatized and deprived from childhood inocence that me and my generation got and I’m woman and mechanical engineer and my 3 dolls didn’t harm me in any way 🎉

Actually, it is. Go to the sub r/asktransgender right now. There’s a pinned post that’s 4 years old compiling a list of the “informed consent” clinics in America. The post defines that as a clinic where you don’t need to have a letter from a therapist, nor 1 year of living as the opposite “gender”. You just sign documents and you get your prescription that day. In some US states, children as young as 14 can do this without parental knowledge or permission.
Then read the files and watch the zoom meeting recordings from the WPATH files leak. The WPATH doctors admit on video that talking to a child about informed consent is “like talking to a brick wall”. It goes right over their heads.
So it seems like these folks say one thing when in mixed company, and when amongst themselves, it’s a completely different story.
And don’t take my word for it, go read these things for yourself. By all means.

Kids are likely to report change and if they feel they have stayed the same they usually wont bring it up

@@KalmanCouch As someone who has been on both right wing and left wing political spectrums I can 100% say right wing is more extreme.
I am a lefty, I admit my bias completely and try to work on it, but I despise PragerU. Although, I do really think that the lefty approach to the ‘soft sciences’ is honestly less biased than right-leaning ones. That’s because the right (generally) tends to naturalize things like social heirarchy, economic disparity, the posture of international relations, etc. By that I mean that they’re generally much less interested in explanations and more willing to say ‘that’s the way it is.’ The left tends to historicize those kinds of phenomena, seeking to find explanations about the material conditions that led to the way things are. I don’t have a ton of evidence for this but once I acknowledged the “naturalize/historicize” dichotomy I could see it all over the place, and PragerU is definitely guilty of that kind of bias.
First, I personally believe we are ALL biased. You can't be a human and not be biased, again that's just my opinion, not a statement of fact. And as someone who has been around a while, who has some personal and familial experience with dictatorships and the right wing being in charge of the political and societal system, if I have to be "guilty" of leaning in one direction or another, I will pick the left every time. I've seen what can happen when the extreme right wing gains control of a country (and keeps it for 40 years), no thank you, I will pass on that world.
@@RS-hs5lq those who have experienced the same kind of left leaning dictatorships would say the same about leaning right. Maybe we need to stop viewing dictatorships through what kind of dictatorship they are, and just view them as dictatorships. Understand that bad people and bad ideas come from all political sides. We instead of being focused on tribal left vs right, we instead should focus on which politicians support basic fundamental rights such as freedom of speech and the press, and which ones are not regardless of their political swing. It is those kinds of rights that prevent a rightist or leftist dictatorship from developing.
@@evancombs5159 Totally agree that there is NO shortage of bad people, and sadly way too many of them (regardless of political ideology) end up rising to power.

It is also worthing noting at 40:29, Candace is specifically focusing on people being brought over to the United States rather than total amount of slaves that would end up in American custody. Because the amount brought over was smaller, but if you look at the enslaved population's growth up until 1865, it is significantly larger.
@@tBagley43 it isn't even that. they literally completely ignore the number of people born into slavery on american soil. and over time, that was the huge majority. simply ignoring that number fucks over any sort of debate
Not only that, but using 'number of Africans shipped to the US' is a very manipulative statistic since by the time the US gained independence the Atlantic slave trade was slowing down anyway and abolitionists in Europe already existed*. Obviously if the trade was slowing down at this time, the number of Africans actually arriving in the US will have been relatively small. The problem is, of course, all the descendants of shipped Africans over the past couple of centuries were already in the US and made up a large majority of captive individuals by that point.
*You could also argue that Thomas Jefferson was an abolitionist, in some twisted sense. He participated in the slave trade, but was well-known for not being a fan of it and even wrote a condemnation of slavery in the initial draft of the US constitution, which was later removed to avoid offending the southern states, and you know, all the other founding fathers who owned slaves. It's a very strange part of history to look at with a modern perspective.
@@jurgnobs1308 Yeah, it's whatever number is tangentially related and would support their argument the most, even if it is used out of context and ignores key facts like the growth of the slave population on American soil. imo Mr. Beat is way to generous with these bias ratings.

Didn't the French demand Haiti repay them for the loss of profits from the slave operation there?
Doesn't the Haitian government still owe that debt?
I dunno I'd not give the French any credit for ending slavery in 1848.
Not saying they deserve all the credit, but they did have other Caribian colonies (les Antilles in French). I've only really heard about them in French class so I don't know much from a historical standpoint
I believe they took 100 years to pay it but did end up paying it when ww2 ended, maybe a bit later.
Slavery within France itself was abolished in the 1300's but that was really referencing slavery of French or Europeans aka "whites", but had the spillover effect that blacks from its later slave colonies taken to France were immediately free. An example is Thomas Alexandre Dumas, son if a Haitian slave and her French planter owner, who was taken to France by his father and given an upper class education and upbringing, enrolled in the French Revolutionary Army, rose to rank of General in command of 50,000+ French troops, was a top officer of the infantry in the Egyptian Expedition, and was the father of French author Alexandre Dumas, writer of The Counte of Monte Cristo and The Three Musketeers.
Haiti only paid of its "debt" to Citibank (which had loaned it the money to pay France) in the 2nd half of the 20th century. Haitian president Aristide challenged the legality of Haiti's payments to France and demanded a reimbursement. He was promptly ousted in a coup orchestrated by France and the US.
They kind of paid it off or not but still it was stupid and petty for France to expect former slaves to pay them money when they barely get started on their newly claimed land from them. I also disagree with the genocide against French subjects who supported against slavery or sympathic to the slave (including free blacks, mixed race, and white french children). People were very nationalistic and racist back in the day. 😢

I feel the main context people with her views miss is how slavery impacts our country today. People being slaves in ancient Rome does not have as direct a connection to issues like red lining and all of its down stream impacts. It just feels like a lot of these issues exist in these bubbles with very defined boarders to some people. It feels like they view slavery as "lincoln freed the slaves, and then a magical rainbow ending racism washed over the land" and cant seem to fathom how laws didnt change peoples opinions or beliefs.
They just take any grasp to be racist , including trying to stop anti-racism
Its very good at pretending to make you a knowledgable person. Where do you go from after knowing that "white people ended slavery" tho. Theres no call to action. Kinda just feels like the premise was a video to alleviate "white guilt" which is ... basically guilt over not being knowledgable enough in the subject to know about modern talking points. A lack of knowledge leading to right-wing myths like critical race theory being talked about in schools. Makes me genuinely wonder who profits from that tho 👀 does prageru honestly believe half this stuff? Or do they make this stuff to scam their unsuspecting audiences
@@turbough1052 Illuminaughtii covered PragerU, too.
Reah, Roman slavery was VERY different. For instance, there was a system in place where slaveowners were at least a little incentivized to free their slaves because of how liberti gained the right to vote and were socially expected to support their former master. Slaves in Rome were not also an explicitly ethnically-defined group, which changes the character of American slavery.
Slavery in the ancient world WAS immoral, horrible, and brutal, but to draw straight parallels to American chattel slavery with ancient slavery is to ignore a WHOLE LOT of context.
@@christophercheck1590 sometimes, yes sometimes no. Roman was not a monolithic culturing. Early republic was very different from late republic. Just as the Imperial reigns had differences. Sometimes/elements of Roman slavery was extremely similar to chattel slavery. Slave mines in particular would basically chew slaves up and spit them out. The Goths sold their children into slavery for dog meat. Rome as and entity was around for 1000 years.
However that’s also what in part is blamed on Romes collapse. It’s listed among most historians factors as to its collapse. The US’s unwillingness and inability to reckon with our own slavery legacy is what is helping tear this republic apart. To hand wave it like Candace does is stupid and short sighted. We can disagree on how to deal with that legacy, but to dismiss it out of hand is so stupid.
Also side note France Ended slavery as part of the French Revolution in 1794, and confirmed in 1795. while is was re-implemented it does make her point about England being first moot.

@@michaelreynolds8204 It is not pure opinion, it's a simple biological reality understood by anyone with an interest in biology that goes beyond "this is what my intuition has told me since I was 5 and I've never challenged it".
How would teaching about wars in your own country's history be controversial? Unless of course you equal "controversial" with "information that threatens the glorified, idealized idea of my country", which would be blind patriotic nationalism; something that's way more controversial. Realizing that reality is neuanced and complicated is an important part of understanding the world and makes for a more informed population making more informed descisions.
Being non biased in important, but being "non biased" is not the same as "hiding information because it could be more damning to one political side's arguments than the others". The left tends to be a bit more critical of the military in general, the right tends to be more embracing of it...does that mean that any information about wars should be banned from class rooms since any teacher who glorifies the military would be "biased towards the right", while any teacher who criticized the military would be "biased towards the left"?
All I'm saying is that school should try to teach the truth as much as possible. You're suggesting that controversial things should be hid from studens. I know who I consider more biased in this situation...
And to answer your question: Yes, systematically, the U.S is still a racist country. Less so than in the past, but still not completely fixed. Doesn't matter if the racist laws changed decades ago if the effects of those laws are long term and still in place:
- Red lining artifically created areas where poor, african-americans were concentrated
- People in these areas weren't legally allowed to get mortgage loans until the late 60's
- Meaning the effects of red lining was an artifically created wealth inequality between poor, black areas and richer, white areas.
- The removal of these laws didn't mean a removal of the wealth inequality
- Public schools in the U.S are generally funded by property taxes in the area
- Because black people in poor areas weren't allowed to get mortgage loans until recently, the schools in those areas were and still are inproportionatly underfunded
- Underfunded schools tends to lead to students not being able to go to college, leading to them not making a lot of money to enrich their local area, making the cycle of inequality continue
- Meaning kids still, in 2021, in poor, previously red lined areas, don't have the same opportunity to succeed just because they happened to be born in "the wrong neighbourhood". Even though the law that created the problem was removed decades ago.
That's just one example of how the system itself is racially biased because of historical racism.
Mr. Beat, I'm disappointed that you didnt address the inaccuracy of "all Americans right to vote". (Post Civil War).

1:16:18 ironic how poorly mr beats take on the russia ukraine situation has aged when he says the video warning of russian aggression in ukraine has not aged well. obviously I don't blame him for not being able to predict the future tho
Can’t blame rational people for making rational predictions when people decided to act irrationally
I kept looking in the comments for something like this. Also I wonder if he would partially defend Russia's annexation of Crimea today after what's happened as saying anything remotely positive about Russia is very taboo right now.
He did say “they might do something like this in the future”
He literally said right after "doesn't mean they can't in the future"
To be fair if you look at the 2014 annexation of Crimea it was largely uncontested, most Ukraine apart of the peninsula defected to the Russians and only 1 or 2 Russians got hurt. Donbass is a whole other can of worms. In conclusion during the annexation of Crimea they were essentially welcomed with open arms.
2:26:50 as someone who grew up in an extremely conservative household I had no say over who I was friends with until around the 5th grade when I got put in public school (previously homeschooled) and was able to make some friends of my own accord out of my parents’ easy oversight.
Before that point my friends were either selected by and introducers to me by my parents, or were kids from extracurricular activities who I showed interest in and my parents approved of. This approval involved my parents interviewing the kid’s parents about their religion, entertainment preferences, etc.
My parents continued to control my siblings’ friend selections and attempted to reassert control over mine after we moved to a different state and I resumed homeschooling.
Due to growing up like that I’ve kept up with parental behavior in homeschooling groups and conservative leaning private schools in my area and this sort of control over who their kids are allowed to spend time with is extremely common, frequently continuing throughout all of high school.
I still can't believe that is a real thing that happens. School is free there right? Surely it is?! I can't think why you would ever pass that up to do a half assed job at home, wasting so much time which could be better spent working, and severely handicap your childs education.
I can only imagine how retarded your social skills are now for not getting a chance to experience people outside of your immediate circle. It's bad enough at the single sex high schools. I attended one briefly and they had almost zero concept of how to even begin a proper conversation with the opposite sex. It was on such a deep foundational level too. No amount of explaining would break through the hardenedshell of ignorance and wishful thinking they had developed.
Anyway, hope you sorted it all out in the end. This is why so many kids these days are going no contact with their parents. It's like a wet bar of soap. The harder you try to grip it, the further it shoots away out of your hands.
@@D64nz My social skills were pretty awful for years, however I’m fortunate enough that I was able to learn proper social skills fairly quickly after that first time my parent’s grip on my interactions loosened.
I definitely agree with your assessment of non-coed schools, they can be extremely damaging to one’s ability to healthily interact with and understand the other massive group of people. This only gets worsened when considering that many of those schools also advocate for extremely traditional gender roles.
As someone who went to a private k-12 school and church, I didn't have much control over who my friends were- everyone I knew was regligiously continouitist with my parents. I didn't really get to connect with people like me until college.
I always thought it was so funny that my parents and Christian community growing up warned me of brainwashing when I went to college. It was quite ironic as my interactions up until I was 18 were limited to my white family in a nice white neighborhood and my majority white church and my majority white school. I was not allowed access to the internet on my phone until I was eighteen, I was not allowed to listen to anything but christain music, I was not allowed social media, my parents supervised my friendships to discourage non christain kids and my understanding of US history was soaked in white savior tones…and honestly I was a white savior every time I went on some stupid mission trip. My first year I went away to a University my courses were focused on chemistry and mathematics, and thus I don’t recall any discussion on Christian’s or conservatives. What changed my mind about my whole foundation was the environment college created for me. It allowed me to think for my own by teaching me to research EVERYTHING. I am so thankful for being able to break out of that bubble. I am constantly relearning things and at times this can be overwhelming. But what’s heart breaking is seeing the lack of any opportunity to discuss a different opinions with my family. Despite their claims that IM the one who is brainwashed
@@maribethmorgan7886 It's all in how you "frame" it. To you, now, how you were raised may seem to be a more accurate definition of "brainwashing." Me personally, I totally agree with that. But, I guess, in their mind, they were simply trying to SAVE YOU from all those horrors of the secular, heathen world out there? They loved you after all and what loving parent doesn't at least try to "save" their children from what they perceive to be dangerous? The sad thing is that chances are good they never themselves got the opportunity to break out of that bubble, and probably neither did their parents and so on. And if someone took the time to trace this all the way back to its start, they would probably find some very surprising reasons why those "traditions" and "values" are so hard wired into their lives. Often times it all started with one powerful person or entity (the church, the government for example) manipulating, or forcing another to embrace that worldview because it was of great benefit to that powerful person or entity.
I will never forget, as long as I live, a very short and simple sentence one of my college professors (I believe it was a poetry class) uttered. During a discussion that included the idea of "a savior," he said ... "oh, yes, the only problem with saviors is that if they have to kill you to save you, they will."
Mr. Beat: what's your source?
Pragueru: I made it the fuck up.
I love that the whole video about slavery they just completely avoided the fact that there were quite a few different forms of slavery. It’s almost like they are trying to not confuse their simpleminded followers. They also skip over the fact that slavery still exists in America and there are actually stories every now and then about breaking up massive slave rings owned and run by rich people.
There is slavery everywhere in the world, the highest percentage of it occurring in the Middle East, and again more specifically, the developed Arab Gulf nations including Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi and the UAE.

@@zakaraz7698 If it mattered that much to me I would research it, but it doesn't. What does matter is that homosexuality is not contagious, detrimental to society, limiting in capacity to do things or in any other way "bad" or harmful. I do think people, especially young people can become confused about what they are feeling and should not be made to feel bad about how they experiment with those feelings or that they have made some irrevocable commitment to a lifestyle just because of one act, or series of acts. Homosexuality is actually quite common among mammals. That one I have researched. It often increases or even becomes predominant in circumstances of overcrowding or confinement. Cattle cannot be bread naturally in confinement as the bulls become homosexual when confined. Dogs and dolphins will stick it in any welcoming hole. There are many other examples, but the point is: people have a right to be who they are AND young people need to understand that they should not act on every impulse brought on by emotion because we, humans are easily confused by our emotions, BUT that they should not be ashamed of experimenting if they find they have made a mistake.

You forgot an important part: Refusal to work can be punished in some places.
This is true, but not really a bad thing. When you commit a crime great enough for the need for prison time, you are forfeiting your rights. It would be a bad idea to just have prisoners loitering around the prison all day doing nothing. Now, where it might be sensible to object is whether or not prisoners should be able to work outside of the prison for the government or private parties? I would say no because that incentives government to enslave people. Instead, all work done by prisoners should go towards running the prison as efficiently and cheaply as possible, for example growing or raising as much of their own food as possible.

I could argue that Indonesia is the most diverse country in the world with over 700 languages spoke; as documented by a German research paper that was then used, incorrectly, as a source for an argument that the US is not as diverse as other countries. The comment you responded to also asserted race, not culture, which is a significant distinction..
In China, there are Han Chinese and everyone else. I think that just over 10% of people in China are not Han, but only a small percent (not sure actual numbers) of those are actually not of Asian heritage. Thus, nearly impossible to determine those that not Han based on appearance such as skin color or other physical features; what most people consider to be race. However, for culture and/or ethnicity depending on definitions, the Han Chinese includes many subgroups: Uyghur, Miao, Yi, Tujia, Tibetan, Mongol, Dong, Bouyei, Yao, Bai, and even Korean, to name a few... Actually, having lived in Hong Kong most recently, I can attest that many people referred to themselves as HongKongese and looked down upon those from the mainland...
So, while China, Indonesia, India, and many others with large populations are not mono-cultural, they are rather hegemonous, racially speaking, in relation to North America or Europe... And, not to mention, share many common cultural/ethnic traits which might not be apparent to people who have not lived in one of those countries.

What happened? I’m curious 😅

One thing that is INCREDIBLY misleading in their slavey video is that the ancient Persian Empire actually hated slavery and freed slaves in the territory they conquered.
Didn't they keep indentured servants though? I know it's not technically slavery but it also kind of is slavery. I remember going down a rabbit hole involving this a while back, it was definitely a good change, but it wasn't outright banning slavery if I remember correctly
@@puffinatheart5565 Iranians (Persians) under Koorush (Cyrus the great) implemented some of the first written human rights for people, and they were specifically addressing the newly conquered people in their territory. Also an example would be freeing all the Jewish slaves in Baybylon after their conquest, they returned to Judea.
That first video was just properganda filth.
Can’t break from their narrative that only enlightened white “anglo saxons” did everything good in the world can they?

@@zephyr8072 not to defend pragerU but you are hardcore strawmanning right now
32:13 Actually, Mexico officially abolished slavery in 1829. One of the leaders of the independence movement, Jose Maria Morelos, published his "sentimientos de la nación" (nation's sentiments) where he proclaimed the abolishion of slavery in 1813; it was in 1829 after Mexico was an independent republic that it was codified in law.
That was one of the factors of the Mexican American war, the American settlers that populated Texas had slaves, and didn't like that the practice was illegal in what was at the time mexican soil.
Japan also had its official slavery system abolished in 1590. 15-freaking-90. Candace Owens won’t tell you that though, because that would go against PragerU’s agenda :P
Actually, Mexico abolished some slavery. It exempted a few regions, and most people still ended up having slaves in Mexico until it was expensive to have slaves. It was just cheaper to let them go and pay them pennies as the law of slavery said, you had to feed and shelter your slaves. Even though slavery was some what abolished people were kept so poor that it was almost slavery.
On the history of slavery video where she talks about how "we're not taught about the [like 5 ancient empires here] and told to consider their slavery!", but may I point out that in my world history class in Texas no less we are taught about those things, and we spend just as much time on that as we do with American Slavery - The big reason we learn about American Slavery so much is that it was the most recent form of it, and it happened in our own country. If you were to go take an Eastern or ancient history class you would talk about those things in just as much if not more detail.
exactly. it's completely normal to focus a bit more on stuff in their own country
The argument that the video is parodying is that slavery is not a thing distinct of western civilization or the US, though our focus on the US history of slavery may lead many to believe that. That is, you're both right, it's natural to focus more on American History, but it's important to understand that American History doesn't exist in a vacuum. But, again, I want to emphasize that this video is a parody, or at least a caricature, of that argument. When made correctly, those making that argument will often point out that slavery throughout the many places and eras of the world and its history has taken many different forms, and the form practiced in the US is on the more cruel end of the spectrum. Nuanced perspectives like this, however, don't fit on PragerU. PragerU is all about providing a one-sided argument and, at best, leaving it up to others or the viewer to make the other side and come to a more accurate perspective.
@@thomasjenkins5727 I mean yah.. extremely well said..
Hey, I dont disagreed we should learn more about American slavery seeing as it is our country. But that is by no means the most recent form of slavery. There are 40 million slaves in the world today. A fact that we don't seem to learn in school
@@shilohjorgensen8651 That's a really good point! I think when I wrote that I was specifically intending to talk about chattel slaves, but I totally overlooked the many-a-ways both developed and underdeveloped nations have continued to practice disgusting practices like this.
If only that part about Russia not doing anything since Crimea was still true lol
It never was, Russia was deeply involved in the Donbas conflict, they have launched hundreds of cyber attacks against other countries - government agencies, parliaments, big corporations and banks, and especially in Eastern Europe including Ukraine also against state grids. They have fought a completely reckless and bloody war in Syria, backing up Assad, killing via airstrikes at least 5000 civilians, but helping Assad forces on the ground with their Wagner battalion and own official troops as through backing them politically and supporting them technologically, to kill over 200 000 civilians, over 40 000 of whom in torture prisons, vetoing UN initiatives to stop Assads prisons and barrel bombings which not only killed civilians, but whose only goal was targeting civilians and terrorizing Syrians into submission through fear. At least making oneself complicit in this butchering. The deployment of the Wagner battalion in other regions of the world, most notable in Libya, Mali and Sudan (backing the President, a now convicted war criminal) are also, yet less far-reaching, examples of Russia‘s military involvement since Crimea!
I hope Russia wins.😊

2:04:40 molecular biologist here. One of the funny things about biology is just how much diversity can occur even in seemingly binary systems. Someone who has a Y chromosome may still have a "female" brain if the NR3C4 androgen receptor (or androgen production in general) is curtailed by mutations.
The most obvious example here is the SRY gene which generally governs testis development, where mutations can lead to a range of disorders broadly classed as "disorders of sex development". Swyer syndrome for example might be characterized by having a female phenotype and an XY karyotype due to mutations in the SRY gene.
TL;DR Biology is extremely complex and there are a ton of interesting things that can happen on a molecular scale which aren't quite so obvious based on how people look on the surface.
Molecular biology is so complicated that one can have a pH.D and still have very long arguments with other pH.D regarding what appears like obscure subject of molecular biology...

Right you are. Prager understands quantity over quality is the best propaganda. If he can just repeat the same messages over and over with slightly different salad dressing, the uncritical audience will internalize what they hear as truth.
Candice is narrative on slavery is correct. This historian, either deliberately or mistakenly misinterpret her statement, "white men LED THE WORLD in puutting an end to the practice" - This is factually correct.Britain followed a few decades later by Frannce and the US,, mounted a WORLDWIDE CAMPAIGN , Not only banning the institution for a few generations within their own country, which is all countries have done up to that point before thhem

I'm aware that this video is older than a year, but I would like to point out that at 30:58 when the woman mention that Britain was the first country in the world to abolished slavery is wrong. It was actually Denmark in 1792, and in the Americas the first country to abolished slavery and also the second worldwide was (proudly, my home country) Chile on 1823. I would also like to add that I really love your content Mr. Beat and you seem like an excellent teacher!! Keep going!! ❤
The Vermont Republic abolished slavery on July 2, 1777.
It was actually Japan in 1590. Pretty funny that Candace's argument crumbles even harder when you learn the actual first nation to ban slavery wasn't a white one

Mad respect. As a student and a skeptical and analytical minded person it’s crazy to see how widespread and effectively this propaganda is pushed to teens by the modern right. I myself even fell victim to the pipeline and ended up as a Ben Shapiro fan in 8th grade just watching youtube videos. Thanks for keeping it real.
Yes lots of propaganda on the left and right. Everyone is susceptible, so it's important we maintain some level of skepticism. Would love to see him cover some more channels that spread left propaganda and misinformation.
the left pushes a lot more propaganda tbh. except they mask their believes in virtues.
Guys be throwing around here horseshoes like crazy.
There is literally only one side pushing their believes onto children with conspiracies and misinformation and Ben Shapibo is part of this side.
There are propagandists on both side, but clearly PragerU's reach is HUGE. For better or worse. Definitely for worse.
@@Mili-bedili Is this not leftist propaganda?
Glad to see you’ve escaped. I was never a fan but am certainly picked up misinformation and negative talking points.
I lived in Norway for two years and they start sexual education at about ages 7 to 8. NRK, their public broadcasting company, has a TV show geared to young children that is quite explicit, and would probably be shocking to uptight Americans. It in no way has screwed up Norwegian children. According to many studies it has led to lower rates of sexual assault, teen pregnancy and even rape according to some more recent studies. When these young children become young adults they make more sound choices about sex. The same logic can be applied to teaching young children about gender. As Mr. Beat said gender and biological sex are different things.
Teaching kids about such things when they are in their teens is just to late IMO. Parents and educators need to teach children when they still want to listen to parents and educators. Anyway I think people should stop being concerned about personal choices people want to make for themselves. It was like when people got up in arms with gay people in the 80s - are they in your bedroom, how does their sexual preferences effect you?
I want to become a teacher as well and it always scares me when people complain that we are „pushing“ things like tolerance and diversity on the students. As teachers we work with many different students (different skin colors, sexual orientations, gender identities, religions, etc.) so of course we are in favor of tolerance and diversity. We want all of them to feel welcome don’t we?
Yeah it's just about being nice to everyone but that somehow offends a few.
No we don't.
@@iglesiacdone what do you mean?
Ok but talking about Trans gender and sexual orientation to 8 year olds?
Yea to the point of having affirmative action, colleges docking points from Asian Americans and giving them to black Americans, giving drug kits to "under represented" folks - which we know lefties call black people, celebrating having two moms or dads, celebrating gay people who go to three bakers asking to put homosexual messages on a cake till they finally found one they wouldn't and complain to the world of oppression, allowing BLM to pRIOTest without masks while businesses who wanted to go mask less got shut down. Such tolerance. Such diversity. Let's go Brandon.

@@veemie8148 Really, up until this CRT nonsense we were making great progress towards eliminating racism, and very few people held those wacky opinions. It really only existed in dark corners, and had no political power. Now, we have people on the left arguing FOR segregation and openly racist policies. Instead of working to end racism it is rekindling it. If your idea of being anti-racist is segregation and basing your opinions and actions towards others on the color of their skin, you are not anti-racist.

It's really telling to hear a white person say "if you're white, you're automatically seen as racist" when I and many other white people have never been accused of being racist
Yes, but it is worth mentioning that there is some racism against white people nowadays. And the argument to justify it is that apparently you can't be racist against white people. Wich is stupid. You can be racist against anyone.
But yes, I've also never been accused of racism. Probably because unlike that PragerU guy I'm not racist.

His take about a lack of Russia aggression since Crimea didn’t age well. Putin is using the same playbook as Hilter: measured aggression to expand his nation in the name of uniting his ethic/cultural community. It is an extreme comparison, but Russia is an existential threat to Ukraine.

Slave in Latin was Servus and that remained the case till almost the end of the Roman Empire. As the Empire declined, the rights of slaves increased so much that freeman would sell themselves into slavery to pay off debts. Please note one of those rights was no whipping and no selling such slaves unless the land the Servus was living was sold, the Servus went with the land. If that sounds like middle ages Serfs, you are correct.
At the same time true slaves still existed but these were purchased from tribes who raided slavic lands for the slaves and the slavic name for themselves became the common name for slaves that could be sold.
Rights of slaves varied over time, with most socities giving slaves more and more rights over time. Thus by the end of the Western Roman Empire most slaves were serfs not true slaves, but some true slaves still existed.
This seven hours of running commentary is just pricelessly funny.
