is it bad that i like Last week tonight?
@@christinedaae3990 If you find the show entertaining, do you. Just do so realizing John Oliver's job is to be a Capitalist sanctioned pressure release valve.
@@christinedaae3990 to be honest, I think it's fine. While LWT isn't really leftist, I feel like it's kind of a good gateway for new people. I dont think I would have been as open to watching long form video essays about depressing topics if LWT didnt give me a taste for them.
Last week tonight is really good though
Reminds me of the indigenous tribe in Brasil who, when asked about why they wanted to protect "the nature" so much, they awnsered:
"We are not protecting 'the nature'. We are the nature. We are protecting ourselves".
Annia Zzacchi exactly!! They know that they are a part of nature - an integral one because they are the best known conservationists of their land.
@Nellie Rutten aww that's cute! Your brain is just dried out play-doh and broken glass.
Its comments like yours that make me wish TH-cam had a "retweet" like button.
if you're interested in indigenous people's fights for their rights i would check out the documentary "Invasion" made my rhe Wet'suwet'en people of the Unist'ot'en camp in Canada. It's very interesting and troubling and it's still currently unfolding
@Nellie Rutten Why? You're saying that as if everyone's like that. Or perhaps that that is the sole issue for determining the value of supporting this particular cause.
I generally believe it is better to be hypocritical and in support of a 'good' cause than to be against it. But then I'd assume it's easier to convince the former of the necessity for actual change. Even if you disagree with me, that doesn't make said cause less worthwhile. It could simply mean we need to try even harder.

this impotent hope that the men responsible for the death of our species will "get what they deserve" is even more pathetic than the millions of people who think we're going to "fix" climate change. but if upvoting these comments makes you happy, may as well. not like anything else you do matters, may as well feel good.

Dude. You’re totally right. It’s so unnerving to see someone as kind and thoughtful as Olly play such a chilling character. After watching the fascism video, I’ve put off this one because there’s something about the arsonist that just makes me viscerally uncomfortable.
What arsonist? Do you mean the traveling salesman? It’s a fine state when simply discussing some wildfires draws cries of “arson!”
Calm yourselves my Caucasian(TM) friends. He simply wants to share his important ideas about race and society. God, these snowflake leftists are so sensitive they could hear a dog whistle.

@casual complaints Like the British... who did it the worst
@casual complaints haha let's hear it, ottoman empire at least improved the cities when they were, Britain wrecked countries short terms and long term. Ottom empire at least allowed a country to thrive by not sending capital and product made back to their country of origin like Britain did.
@casual complaints are you saying because British colonies still exist, this means that British colonialism was greater?
Funnily enough, the same logic can be applied to the Earth, as in, we are all children of the Earth.
@casual complaints Yes very really,
The arsonist causually quoting the fourteen words makes him exponentially scarier
I'm sorry, but what are these 14 words? It's the second time I'm watching this video and I've noticed nothing.
@@LucasDeziderio somewhere in one of his segments the arsonist starts quoting the fourteen words: "we must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children" only leaving out the "white" this is a common neo-nazi and alt-right slogan.
@@rowgesage936 Oh yeah. I found it creepy but didn't know it was a whole thing. Thanks for explaining.
Yeah. I am basically rewatching this for like a fifth time and I just picked that up.

it‘s that. we have the science. we know what’s happening. we know what needs to be done. but capital is keeping us back.
but yes, we also need scientists, because if we are ever to live through a revolution, we will be needed. god, it‘s depressing.
there's something about "the arsonist" that just hits me so hard. He has all the appearance of a calm, collected, polite gentleman. He presents himself as utterly rational, he's handsome, charismatic, and he makes the effort to sound reasonable. All of which serves to make his comments such as "There was a wide open country... not a soul living there, and they built a great big civilization... isnt that admirable?" and "If you're tired, poor, hungry, wretched, then please feel free to apply through the proper channels." even more unsettling because theyre hidden behind this facade of civility.
Reminds me a lot of richard spencer and how he tries to present himself as a respectable nazi although of course the only good nazi is a dead on
The tired, poor, wretched and hungry were the ones who built the great big civilization in the "empty land"

Our world is getting hotter. We need to put ice on him.

"There was a wide open country, not a soul living there."
The travelling salesman is truly the best character.
@casual complaints What on earth are you on about
@casual complaints Yeah, I really don't. I'm not entirely sure you do either.
@casual complaints Politics is everyone's place. You can't just say incorrect and nonsensical things, and then wonder why people have questions.
@casual complaints You're really going to tell me that after saying a racist lie about native americans? I'm not the one who needs to 'find out the bigger realities'. After all, I'm not such a twat that I feel the need the need to use a cringey 'meme' format to belittle and create fear around an already oppressed group. You're just a bitter, petty person.
@casual complaints this is a powerful troll
The part at 15:34 is so chilling, perfect way of showing how dogwhistles work so sneakily. Having him pause for his cigarette to cut out the word "white" was a great artistic decision that made it clear but not too clear as dogwhistles are meant to be.
holy shit I didn't notice that. Spectacular.
I want to explain, that yes. As a Lakota woman. I am. Living in a Post Apocalyptic world.
My peoples language, spiritual beliefs, philosphies, sexual identity and even our sciences. Were nearly snuffed out, and are today. Tightly controlled, and mocked.
We live today, in what we see as an empty world. There is no real connection to our enviroment, ourselves or acceptance that each and every person are truly, fundamentally different.
But...
We are. Willing. Damned willing. To make things work, and now that we have technology (as detrimental as it is) to communicate with not only other indigenous peoples around the world, but also directly to people in power and broadcast our voices as far as we can.
We hope to become leaders in environmental change.
It's not that we want to go right back to our old life styles, it's that we want that choice, to live a life that has a resemblance to it. To be free to live the way we want to. And without harassment or ridicule. Just to be free and happy.
Just with things like soda, tacos, tea, anime and cats.
Lots and lots of cats
In the Arthurian mythology there is a direct connection between Arthur, the king, and the land. We have to “rediscover “ the land and the people are one. Our environment shapes us as much (and probably more) as we shape our environment.
Sexual identity and science? Please explain when you have been mocked for this if you want to.
@@kangz8030 I'm a white anthropologist. Many indigenous peoples' both in the Americas' and elsewhere often recognise radically different gender/sexual identities than those found in European cultures; Two-spirited, Muxe, Fa'afafine, Māhū, being examples. People who hold these identities have been subjected to violent 'Westernisation', under colonialist/settler regimes that sought to destroy them for not conforming to the peculiarly European notions of gender/sex and sexuality.
I don’t mean to be insensitive, but I don’t really know how to phrase this. First, it sounds like you just want to have your cake and eat it too. Second, cats are ecological disasters. They definitely change the environment... just not in a good way.
Faked Moon Landings I don’t see it as having ones cake and eating it. It sounds like she just wants a revitalization of her culture adapted for the modern age. But your right about cats, of course, they pale in comparison to the true Bain of the Americas...

Heck. I can’t believe this was written before the Amazonia fires. Unsettlingly prophetic.
Oliver is intune with what's going on... by reading a lot.
@@MissHeathen "As the world fell, each one of us was, in their own way...broken. It was hard to know who was more crazy: me...or everyone else." - Mad Max, Fury Road
Kind of. The fires have been going on for 3 weeks straight.
At this point you can probably say "another place is going to burn because some old white guy wants money" and you'll be pretty spot on in a few days.
It's not prophetic. Amazonia fires didn't start yesterday. It's just you noticed this now
"Do you have a match" has turned into one of those things that immediately makes me feel nauseous at this point

Lotus Auer genuinely I’ve dreamt about that on multiple occasions

Imagine a world where they burned the Amazon so badly in one day that the literal corpses of cremated trees floated to the other side of the subcontinent, covering its most populous city, blotting out the sun, bringing darkness at noon.
Sounds dramatic, right? But it's not hyperbole. It's literally what happened here in São Paulo, Brazil, 19th August 2019. Search for the photos and videos yourselves.
We saw it. At least all those who watched TYT instead of CNN. Was hard to watch. I just hope enough brazilian citizins wake up and resist. I also hope we can organize as much boycott against brazilian products as possible. I heard there is some new TTP and NAFTA deal in the making...

Watching the wildfires bit in Australia in early January 2020. 2 million acres burned sounds like wishful thinking right now (we’re currently at about15 million acres burned, and over a billion native animals lost).
So, that climate change, hey?
Climate Change or policy dating back a decade that stopped the clearing of brush which given the drought conditions and arson resulted in Hell on Earth? Problem with Climate Change is that it is often used like our ancestors used the "gods" or "spirits" to explain events. Look at the supposed Amazon Climate Change fires that weren't. They were brush fires started by farmers to clear land of brush and forest. More fires were started in Africa, but they didn't get the attention.
@@silasbishop3055 I can somewhat agree to this.
The bushfires in Australia were mostly caused after a dry season and the dry scrub being ignited by lightning. Of course there never any droughts or lightning before there was an imaginary climate "catastrophe"
@@Blackgeoff1 they are far worse nowadays, and happen more frequently. Earlier they would've started, and then stopped.
Due to climate change they happen more severely.
We're supposed to be going in an ice age, and yet the world's getting hotter.
@@ipadair7345 just to 'yes and' on your point here - and on the points abby makes about colonialism+climate change together- one of the reasons the brush was left there *to* burn is because aboriginal australians have been discriminated against and pushed off the land. Many of the forests that burned were well managed for thousands of years by aboriginal people who understood the need for small, controlled burning in the forest ecosystem. Aboriginal equality and landknowledge is crucial to fighting climate change and preventing it from getting worse- but currently, the same system marginalising them is also currently burning up the world for a quick buck.
Also anyone looking at *australia* and claiming climate change is a myth is both unhinged and deeply calous. Like why even bother when theres a honking great man-made hole in the ozone layer right above it?
Wait, we won't just sell our homes when they flood? You mean, Ben Shapiro lied to me?!?

The Arsonist is one of the most impressive, enigmatic, and horrifically disturbing characters I've seen in quite some time. The portrayal is just unsettling perfection.
Note how his gestures and speaking style become distinctly Hitlerian while he rants about immigrants. It was a gradual change that slowly crept in, but eventually it happened and was noticeable, much like fascism itself.
It's actually a brilliant bit of symbolism and an extremely haunting character because of just how close it is to reality. The fucking dog whistle at the end of his rant actually sent a chill up my spine. "future of our children" my arse
I almost worry that it’s too good here. Like, for people who watch this channel and know, it’s fine. But out of context it might just be too persuasive.
@@TJRex01 The best way to help people who are actually persuaded by the Arsonist is to have them persuaded here and now where we can talk about it, and potentially disarm them. Otherwise, they'll be persuaded by some other Arsonist, fake or real, and there's a lot less of a chance to dissuade them.
Agree. He's close enough to an actual person you might know or MIGHT BE to make you thoroughly uncomfortable - and that makes it hard to brush the topic off as you might be able to do with more overdrawn presentations.
Did she wink when mentioning trans people at 25:30? That is the subtlest thing I've noticed in any video ever and it's genius.

"Wide open country, fresh for discovery, not a soul living there."

You won't believe the nonsense lines these people use for their historical narrative myths. I expect you'll hear the refrain, "Not stolen, but conquered!" a lot very soon. Yes, really. Because the are such knobs they don't realize that this is a distinction without a difference.
It reminded me of that old pro-Israel slogan, which many people still believe: “A land without a people, for a people without a land.”
Ugh. It annoys me to no fucking end.
My people have been on the plains for roughly 700 or 800 years, and had many many sights like the one in Standing Rock.
But because of Manifest Destiny, and the idea that the are was EMPTY, we had to be forced into submission. My Tribe never surrendered. We were massacred into giving up arms, and living on a Reservation.
It's true. In that regard. That we are living in a Post Apocalyptic, authoritarian world that looks down upon us, and spits upon what we consider sacred.
But oh nooooo... A church caught fire! Save it! Save it! (I will say. I do feel bad about the Notre Dame. NO ONE SHOULD EVER HAVE ANY, ANY OF THEIR SPIRITUAL SITES DESTROYED)
@@ScorpionViper1001 "Not larceny, but robbery!" said the thief's attorney. The judge was unimpressed.
Foxrider Scorpion Well, as someone who used to argue your position, there is a difference, but can’t help feeling the difference doesn’t make it any better.
The difference is that stolen is between people within a society, and conquered is stolen between people of separate societies.
I still think conquered is bad, but it’s hard to judge someone by morals that only exist within a society.
So there is a distinction that makes a small difference, but not a significant one.
I'm so so glad you talked about the Indigenous part of this conversation. Not enough people consider us when we have been living sustainably for MILLENIA
The problem isn't we got seven billion people. Problem is we got seven billion people and they all want washing machines the solution the people who already got washing machines is not to make washing machines not harmful to the planet, but to tell the people without washing machines, "Fuck you, filthy s*vage, I got mine!"
Yes. Especially about what happened at Standing Rock. Even without stopping the pipeline, it was a major breakthrough in that the political left and the spiritual left have finally found back to each other. It seems like not only the Beatles broke up 50 years ago, but the whole movements of change were infiltrated by people who gaslighted us all towards fracturing ourselves into tiny tribes again.

as someone with a chronic illness who requires very specific medication to function and ultimately stay alive, and will not survive should society collapse, I have come to feel that climate grief is the same as grieving for my own life. to see the sky go dark in my city because of the smoke of the amazon fires felt very much like watching my own life being threatened, and it was surreal and horrifying. the past few days have been an emotional rollercoaster, and then this video drops and wow this ride just keeps on going huh??

A couple years ago when the county below mine was on fire (I live in California), I started panicking wondering how I’d get my thyroid medication if the highway was on fire and trucks couldn’t come through. Then I started panicking about climate change. It’s been a looming concern in my mind since I was seven years old, and it’s absolutely terrifying. I hope the planet is at least marginally alright when I’m older (if I get to be older).

holy shit Abigail is such a good actress. I always know this but seeing her play the arsonist is amazing and so scary.
This is some of the very best work I've seen from a channel which is consistently excellent.
I love the character of The Arsonist and how he's included here in particular. He encapsulates a lot of the qualities of the modern day villains who do the most actual damage - carefully, consciously concealing his ruthless destructiveness under a smokescreen of civility and privilege, *knowing* that many of his victims are fully aware it's a charade, and knowing also that they can't effectively call him out on it because of the real power of that same privilege.
Linking the political and the ecological back together is a perspective I hadn't contemplated before. Trying to talk about all the different issues separately feels really overwhelming, even if all I do is talk to people I know both offline and on the web. If the scientific, political and moral problems are different facets of one big problem, in a way it's sort of emotionally easier to get one's arms around.
@casual complaints hey, it's you again!
Well said, Crystal! Environmentalists who aren't politically aware or progressive can also fall prey to all sorts of misanthropic beliefs. Internalizing capitalism to such an extent that they believe mankind can only be a parasite upon the earth, thinking that human beings are inherently individualistic and selfish, and so on. I think the biggest challenge in dealing with climate change is the re-organization of society, especially convincing people with 'comfortable' lives to act on predictions of the future. This kind of unprecedented change is a massive emotional and intellectual undertaking and it won't be an easy one!

“Anyone who has to act for a video that we are supposed to take completely serious probably shouldn’t be taken serious.”
I don’t think I agree with you there. In professional philosophy, presenting your arguments in the form of a dialogue or play is pretty common. Olly isn’t just presenting his own arguments in this video, but also the arguments of others (sometimes presenting positions that are antithetical to his own views). In a video essay, it makes more sense to present those different positions through original characters than to sit in front of a bookshelf in a suit saying, “the way a fascist may approach this topic is....” Especially when the content creator is a professional actor, it makes sense to use costume changes and original characters to show when the philosophical framework Olly is using shifts.

I love the arsonist character, not in that kind of way, I love that you make him extremely likable and well dressed etc, it is the perfect portrayal of how fascists work and how people so easily fall victim to their rhetoric and ideas. Everyone wants to think of fascists as they do skinheads and not intelligent well educated, well spoken CEO and at face value friendly types.

This is why I hate the idea of respectability politics so much. Even the most trashy (read: nonconforming and brash) leftist will be better than a well presenting fascist.
casual complaints what defines as respect? Our old president José Mujica lived in a shack in the outskirts of town and always dressed very casually, donated all his money to the poor. Is that presenting one with respect? Is there different kinds of respect?
I agree. I also like how he disguises his assertions and desires as mere musings as though he is in denial of what he is for the time being (and just waiting for a match).

it's so cool, right? I even made a drawing out of it when the video was published
I wonder if it was inspired from Gwyndolin from Dark Souls series, the head piece, veil, pale face are very similar to him.
“There was a wide open country, fresh for discovery, not a soul living there, and they build a great big civilization on top of it.”
Eesh. It’s as a funny a joke as it is scathing.
I almost half laughed at “finding America as an empty wasteland, not a soul living there” but then remembered that there are indeed people that seem to think that.
Well, I mean, before the FIRST humans turned up, sure. Tens of thousands of years ago...
That was (and often still is) the general [cough white cough] consensus.
Edit: I did laugh where you almost did. Felt icky cos I knew why it's "technically true" (but morally repugnant).
90% of the population was wiped out by disease. It practically was an empty wasteland, in terms of diminished population. That's quite literally how desolate and vast the unclaimed territories were. Hell, even if no such pandemic outbreaks had swept the Americas, the entire population of both North and South America back then was scarcely 1% of what it is today. And even today the vast majority of inhabitable land is uninhabited. So back then, no less than 99.98% of inhabitable territory was unclaimed, let alone inhabited. There was never anywhere remotely near even an appreciable fraction of 1% as many people to make use of the unclaimed territory. Virtually everyone back then never ventured more than 10 miles from the place they were born, and again, 99.98% of the territory was uninhabited, even if there was no pandemic. So on top of that, when 80-90% of the indigenous population perishes before they even have a chance to fight, how is it any wonder which cultures would establish the dominant culture?
@@pluckyduck11y There was still people there! And the disease that killed them were carried to them by the Europeans! Their immune systems didn't fight nearly as many diseases as the Europeans, and especially not of a similar kind, so of course they all started dying!
And most of it was mountains and dense rainforest, so of course they didn't travel more than 10 miles from where they were born; no-one in ancient times did! The only reason Europe started mobilizing in the first place is because of the industrial revolution and the need for more resources.
That's not an excuse for them to raid the country, kill and conquer their homes, and overpower them for land and claim.
@@ruki4929 "And the disease that killed them were carried to them by the Europeans! Their immune systems didn't fight nearly as many diseases as the Europeans, and especially not of a similar kind, so of course they all started dying!"
While intentional use of biological warfare is abhorrent, I don't think it's necessarily fair to blame the Eurpoeans for that one. It was an accident, of which was born mostly of naivety (until later). A little harsh to banish all Europeans from immigrating based on something they knew nothing about and of which they had no control over.
"The only reason Europe started mobilizing in the first place is because of the industrial revolution and the need for more resources."
Again, is that inherently bad? Use it or lose it. Do you object to asteroid mining, for instance? Is that not the same concept?
"That's not an excuse for them to raid the country, kill and conquer their homes, and overpower them for land and claim."
Yes, I agree that this is where it went too far. The natives clearly needed a better immigration policy before things got out of hand lol.

As a teenager, I want to thank you for this. I'm revisiting this video a year later as California is on fire again and the amount of change that is happening continues to amount to nothing. With the combination of this, and much of what is happening in my country, it is easy to fall into a trap of nothing but grief and anxiety, leading to a path of doing nothing to change it or make a better life. (It is hard to change the world from my position as a teenager in a small town, but still. If you have advice, let me know.) It's important to not fall into that depression and keep in mind that even if I can't change the whole world I can help those around me - if I can change even one life it's enough. (A hard fact to remember, but a true one nonetheless.) This video was very informative, and managed to educate me while reminding me to keep a sense of hope - if not for the world's future (or my distant future) but instead for my ability to make some people happy, and leave at least a small impact on the world. ( I have more thoughts on this video, but I don't know how to word it all, and this comment is already quite long.)
Good luck! You’ll change the world for the better 👍 (btw there’s a wise saying from a Chinese person ”we’re all born to change the world with no other choices. It’s either to make it go a tiny bit better or tiny bit worse)

"do you have a match?" brilliant
**proceeds to throw gasoline at him**
**here comes the match**
I adore how the Arsonist’s argument about how “new” people don’t need to respect or take care of the land subtly (and at points, very overtly) reveals how American imperialists disrespected Native lands with unclean energy, landfills, and etc. Especially with when he says that immigrants might drop a cigarette and then asks you for a match for his own cigarette.
Yep, the major problem with the puritans and evangelicals who took over america aren't indigenous to it. So they really don't care about the land. That's why you see all these malls, and huge buildings and so little parks. They just don't care about the land.
Another subtle but awful thing from that scene was how Americans conquered the land when "not a soul" was living there
And the inclusion of the white supremacist 14 words. The Arsonist is a terrifying character.
Open borders is a koch brothers proposal.
Well the "do you have a match/light" thing is now a certified PhilosophyTube tradition whenever the Arsonist appears! It symbolizes the fact that fascism is like, right there ready to go, ready to be set ablaze, but it does need *other* people, especially libs, to give it the match and pull the final string. Don't give him the match, goddammit!

I watched this video several months ago. I was very concerned about the environment and also billionaires amassing fortunes while others suffered. This is what FINALLY convinced me that they were one problem, and that Capitalism was bad. Back then, I didn't go much further than that, but this video is what finally woke me up.

@@kathybramley5609 - I think it's because after finally understanding the point of the Arsonist character at the end of his arc in the Bannon video it's a lot easier to digest and understand what the character is meant to highlight in this one.

I think the worst thing for me right now is that I was starting to hope. I've been worrying about climate change since I was old enough to know about it, but I'd always felt powerless because, well, I was a kid. I couldn't change things, couldn't vote, couldn't even leverage my money as a consumer because I didn't have any. That's still mostly the case, to be fair. But I felt like things were maybe starting to change. That we might have been getting close to the tipping point of actually doing something. I was skipping school, going to the protests, shouting my heart out. And it felt like at least I was doing something, and maybe it would even make a difference.
And then covid came, and it all just stopped. In the beginning, I was still excited. There was the big thing with the oil, the price going negative, and I felt like maybe, if it went on long enough, then people would start to realize that oil hasn't been profitable since the 70s and it would shut down. But then it didn't. And we're a year in, and it's not like the crisis is on pause, but it feels like everyone thinks it is because I haven't heard the word climate change from a politician since last march.
I am grieving. I'm one of those teenagers who's growing up in a world they know will be ruined before they can save it, who's grieving for the future that could have been if not for inaction and lies and people just not caring about the world they would leave behind for us. It hurts. It hurts in a way that losing someone never has, and that's partly because I've been lucky to not lose too many people, but also because we could have saved it, could be saving it, and we're just... not.
I don't really know where to go from here. I'm doing my best, trying to not eat meat, walk or bike where I can, buy local, but there's only so much I can do. I still can't vote. I still have no power beyond that which those around me chose to give. The hope is gone. All that I have left is the grief
Ugh I feel you, honestly I think that I, personally, will manage. Obviously my standard of living 50 or maybe even 20 years from now isn't going to be as good as it is now, but I'll be okay. Its just so many people around me will suffer and I just can't stand it.
its almost funny how we accidentally did an experiment where everyone drastically cut their carbon emissions for a significant amount of time and it didn't really effect climate change at all because there are still billionaires. There is no ethical consumption under capitalism so just do things you enjoy, eat meat, drive a car, shoot a firework if that's what makes you happy.
@@jeffreydenenberg7101 It did affect climate change somewhat, but the problem is that we only really cut down on transport related emissions. The food industry barely slowed down and electronic devices were used more than ever.
