"But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain - that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist." - Lysander Spooner
+JulianBaynes1 Yeah, it's fucked up. The Western masses wouldn't accept a King as their own "legitimate ruler"(!), but no one bats an eye at Saudi Arabia having a King. Or maybe they all sense that a King == Dictator == BAD, but just can't connect the dots between _Government_ A and _Government_ B.
***** Well yeah, I forgot about the figurehead Kings of England and Sweden, and.. are there any others? But they're not running the countries, they're more like mascots or something :P Oh, and actual _humans_ don't even want to wield power over other people,but _psychopaths_ sure as fuck do.. and they run the world.
Wow. I never realized the giant contradiction in needing an informed populace to ensure the constitution gets upheld, while the whole purpose of the constitution is to prevent the majority from violating the rights of the individuals
I know I'm late like 8 years but just found part 1 last week and part 2 now. What a beautiful work of scientific facts. 1 and 2 are on my list of favorites for sure.
Haaa I love that ending remark. So true. Everyone is so brainwashed into believing and associating anarchy with chaos when in reality it doesn’t have to be that way at all.
This poor guy haha he just wants to get home and drink a beer but this alien is turning his world upside down. That must be how people feel when talking to AnCaps
"But there'd be chaos without government." There's more chaos WITH government. Individuals may have arguments, those arguments may even turn into fights... but when governments have arguments, those arguments turn into wars. War is chaos.
Nice job with the sequel, Graham. I wouldn't bet that this one will go viral, but it does a good job responding to the many comments that you got on the first one that the government is a republic, not a democracy. The comments pointed this out as if it made all the difference, when in reality as your video shows, it really doesn't. All of the main problems inherent in government still exist in a constitutional republic.
every child should watch this around the age of 12 or 13 then again around 17-18. we put too much trust in a gov that abuses its power(violence). funny how their violence is different then anyone elses. if people want or need your services they will seek you out. if not then leave them alone!
All governments say....Remain Calm…Just keep voting the two party system, pay your taxes, listen to the controlled media, and pay no attention to conspiracy theories and alternative news….
That would be great. I know of French, Spanish, German, Slovak and Greek versions of Part 1 (the German one is even dubbed!). If you google "Translations and Mirrors of Government Explained" you will find my blog post listing those I know about. There may be more. I'm not aware of any translations of Part 2.
I would vote for this fictional alien in 2016 before I would vote for anyone on the Repub or Democrat ticket. FICTIONAL ALIEN 2016: He Couldn't Do Any Worse Than Obama
NobodyNaboru, You guys still have a chance to change your government by voting for Jessie Ventura, if he runs in 2016. Wish we had him here in Canada cus he would have my vote!
Prairie Hip Oh I love him to death.... That was a terrible choice of words. Anyway yeah, the only reason he hasn't been taken out yet is because he's got too much attention. I still don't think even if we voted him in it would be enough. America is coming to an end and I don't anything can fix it. I don't think he'd run honestly, he's smarter than that.
@@NobodyNaboru Not really, how people in HK achieve their 90% economic freedom?. Yes by democracy... They separated from China. and become capitalist. USA can do the same and achive 100% of economic freedom by democracy. just vote an Ancap.
+JulianBaynes1 But really, how powerful is the UN, if they're main board is made up of just 5 superpowers who can contradict and veto each other to prevent any progress from being made.
This is now a common theme amongst people I meet, this is the zeitgeist of our current time, civil uprising is coming, but it must be done peacefully ie. non violent resistence
Not in the constitution,but the 16th amendment does,ratified February 3rd 1913 and signed into law by Woodrow Wilson.Wilson also signed into law the Federal reserve bill,Those two bill authorized the government to steal our money and devalue it's worth.
The Constitution tells us that it gives government the power to force us to give them money via taxes. The paper that tells us to keep government small and unpowerful, gives it the power to force us to give it money. No conflict there...
Thanks Jesse, cuz the change deal left us getting just change not the dollar....(anyone noticed every time they tell us their gonna do something they do it, but not the way they depicted?)
But how would be organise people to make sure everything that needs doing will be done? Everything from caring for the elderly to growing food to building roads?
it not just that you need them..it that like it or not their always going to be some sort of leadership around .for example a newspaper is informs people of what going on around the world and by doing so its moving everyone toward one direction , its leading people . it has control over people but just as much as the people allows this.. the problem is that people never question whatever the information is true or not and just trust newspaper will make sure the newspaper will do the right thing
They're are many fallacies about gov't that people ask that should be addressed like, "who will build the roads?" and "how will we defend ourselves?". This is the jist of why people tolerate "being robbed".
Yeah - if I could do a believable American accent I would have done! If the human talking about the British constitutional monarchy system of government, Americans and other people living in republics might have thought the video doesn't apply to their system. In fact, the main motivation for making this sequel was to answer those commenters who thought (for some reason) that the first video only applied to democracies and not to republics.
hello still need a translation? i am a native spanish speaker and i REALLY think this message should reach as many as possible =) should i translate your transcript? and should i send you a PM somewhere so you can load the subtitles to this or other video? hope i can help.
This great government passed a law in Minnesota that says since I have a prior drug felony.It allowed them to give me 5 years prison for possession of a "firearm" AKA BB-gun that couldnt even break skin
perhaps I use the wrong words.. when say force the system I'm not speaking of act of violence ..though I'm not against the idea depending the case of the situation we are talking.. let me give you an example
There isn't a part 3. I think I've made my point with 2. The first video showed that the whole idea of "government" is ridiculous. The sequel showed that that is still true even when it is a "constitutional republic". What would you like to see addressed in a part 3?
brilliant and 100% true! did you do it yourself? shat software did you use?movements of the characters are good, lipsynching is good as well(especially on the human character), but you sould put a subdivision surface modifier on the meshes, so they are not blocky! especially the eyelids of the alien dont feel good. Or you were just saving rendering time?! Keep it up, people must know the truth!
Great video. Thank you for posting. It is interesting to see a very well educated human struggle with the systemic paradoxes of the republic. But if people didn't know libertarianism, they would still think it is the only choice.
I swear there used to be another video of this same animation of the alien mentioning /asking about things like renewable energy ?!?? Anybody else ? I cannot find it
Don't ask for someone else to tell you, You have the answer, you just have to enter that mind space. And if we all do, it will be a new birth onto a new world.
A better system than government is no government. You can read the works of people like Murray Rothbard, David Friedman, Hans Hoppe, Robert Murphy, etc to learn how society might work without a government, and why we can expect it to be better.
"get paid fairly" is a pretty vague statement and the word "fair" is a subjective identifier. What do you think fair is? Also without government the market would meet people's preferences.
Graham, Please study the concept of "memes" and add that to the next discussion between the American with a British accent and the space alien who speaks even better English. Walt
lets imagine a world without the state: 1. people want security so a demand for it is created. 2. security companies come to supply that demand, competing to attract customers. 3. some people don't want these services, so don't pay the companies, in return not getting private security (at best the indirect security from their neighbors) 4. Are you telling me that the security firms will force him to pay, beat him and lock him up if he doesn't, just because he decided to protect himself? really?
Man Against The State That's cool, hey I thought you might like to know that at my school we watched both of your videos and we had to do a quiz on it at the end! (Thought you might like that!)
I'm mexican and student from the Ibero university.. before peña nieto our current president was forced into power..he went to give a conference at the university to the students to answer some of their questions ..of course this being Mexico the conference room got fill by people paid to support the candidate and not a Single student. the actual student didn't take this lightly, because many of us are quite aware of the Peña's history with corruption and some act of violence he took part of
Once again these videos are SPOT ON and accurate in most everything except ONE very important aspect. @ 2:06 - 2:49 @ 2:50 you finally mention a Republic and the process that SHOULD be in these United States. While we use the majority rules (Democratic) way as a voting tool in electing our Congress and other smaller leaders, that "process" does NOT make us a Democratic Government. Our Constitution FOR the United States guarantees us a Republican form of Government in Article 4 Section 4. So if that is guaranteed in the Constitution, yet you say in the videos that we are Democratic government, then our form of Government is UNCONSTITUTIONAL. The process in which we vote is still not a "true democracy" as we have seen in a few presidential elections where the POPULAR vote loses to the Electoral College process. So in reality, not even our vote for POTUS is Democratic in function but a way to inform the Electoral College what to do. LOVED THE VIDEOS other than that.
hey, he's talking about connected physics/universe that changes human views on the "world" }rule gravity}space travel...ive though that's wat your cartoon tells about...
+JulianBaynes1 Thanks, yes, that is the impression I got from him, but I am open to hearing an opposing view from someone who thinks that what he has to say is actually of value.
Governments will continues to exist for ever in some form or another. Here's why: Step 1: People want security Step 2: People get price sensitive and pool resources to make security cheaper. Step 3: People create "rules" this group security must follow. Step 4: The group agrees to pay dues for this security. Step 5: Some people stop paying and become "free riders." Step 6: Everyone get's made at the "free riders" for not paying. Step 7: Taxes

John Le Moignan I know. LOL
I don't think we had much government at one point in time and it should still be that way.
It is not about "the problems in our system of government" The problem is that something like the government exists.
"I'm sure that's what they tell you." Awesome!
"The gang that tells you what to do and robs you". The alien has it figured out alright.
"I'm sure that's what they tell you" best line ever 😂
