I am benefitting greatly from watching such videos as the above. Many times I watch a video twice; many times at 75% speed. Partly I watch for the content and partly I watch for how the content is analyzed and presented. Once I have built a model in my head, I go faster. Going fast comes with experience and skill. Also it is the Human with who I connect, albeit one sided through watching and projection.
Snyder is so ahead of his time in his analyse of current political developments, it's just phenomenally accurate and unfortunately very frightening to see how easily whole countries can be manipulated online through bot based social media mass spreading.
1:12:42 Very important question, about factors other than Russia in the 2016 election. However, it wasn't really answered. I recommend the talks and writings of Thomas Frank and Mark Blyth to provide those answers. Of course, earlier in the session, Timothy showed full understanding of wealth and income inequality and the other deficiencies of the American system. 1:36:41 "Video is awful" : excellent point about the low ratio of information content to time spent (let alone gigabytes received ;-) watching video and TV. Also video is ephemeral, although I think audio should last longer (and the information content is nearly entirely in the audio track).
Minute 55 argues for An institution for truth , what should such an institution actually do? Being critical on establishment, would,nt dissidents be in danger?
Woe he got it there in the first 20 minutes. He doesnt need to say anything else becuase everything else is irrelavent becuase we dont have control, they do.
wiki: Fascism is an, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology, philosophy and movement,[] characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the good of the nation and race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy
Professor Snyder, you claim that lim0 is factual in the internet. But your speeches and answers are in the Internet. So the ratio has to be higher than lim0.
Great information but why does he have to stoop to using “trump” style insults to make his points? Stay on the high road otherwise it pollutes the message.
In a rather pedantic comment of mine below I was trying to say two things: that same Profr. Snyder's Alma Mater youtube video for this conference had supressed the comments interface (for me something unfaithful of this "large trend" [in his own words in other DeBalie conference] of uploading videos and comments); and, that the shortcomings of the tool (just try to browse hundreds or thounsands of comments) should or might be overcome in a cooperative good will environment. Not withstanding the implied criticism of the majestic attitude of uploading and making the comments available and not being able to descend to the level of the commentators. PS that congratulates DeBalie for their productions but that declares the improbability of even browsing a tiny part of it. PS that expects the greatest of a comments interface tangible results
Democracy relies on citizens defining what it really means. Please think for yourself as much as possible and share your ideas. Broadly and technically democracy is rule by the people. Greek root 'demos' means people, any 'cracy' means rule by.
Snyder hasn't even spoken and we have had almost 8 minutes of scene setting and water muddying. I'm genuinely concerned that the intellectual elite of the West have given over their powers of reason and objectivity to this "Cult of Progress" Locked in their own bubbles of hyperreality, only able relate to others as abstract groups to be played off against each other. The man making the introductions speaks of beliefs and predictions in religious terms as if Tim Snyder is some Nostrodamus like sage. Snyder frames his fellow citizens as ignorant and without agency, paints his President as Putins marionette, and resistance against Neo-Liberalism as Fascism. It continues....
New rule : If you're smart enough to watch this video then be smart enough to use proper sentence structure. This isn't the 19th century; don't use sentences as long as paragraphs.
America is the least innocent state in the whole world. That’s never going to be russias fault. We are the antagonist man. Who else has dropped nukes on innocent civilians?? It’s horrific the things the American gov has done and is currently doing. Horrific. I don’t think it’s our fault that no state can be trusted. That doesn’t mean lay down and roll over. To me, it means stand up & accept the mission of eternal vigilance & unrewarding fights. 🫡
Watching this in March 2022 is absolutely surreal.
Still many wont be able to grasp even now....
yeah, oct 30th 2022, can confirm
Still in April 2024 …
It is interesting to watch this in retrospect in April of 2024.

Yeah, what´s he describing sounds a bit like mental jerrymandering of entire populations, truly threatening the process of rational opinion formation
Look at it now....super scary and not
Everyone is able to get it....
We must have counter propaganda or else...😱
Russia and China are both shit shows built on the back of peasants. They are doomed to scratch in the dirt and watch modernity roll by.
beautiful talk, this should play on television in the place of news networks for a week.
yeah in Russia for instance xD
May 2024. He was looking into the future. I feel bad because of the low viewers for this video.
Brilliant perspective on the Ukrainian war 👍🏻

9:01 Snyder starts
Good moderator.
Super interesting book
Snyder defines fascism in this video at time 1:01:00
Even Timothy never figured Trump would get as bad as he did.
Where did the future go? Great synthesis.
a great book!
19:28
25:02
Snyder's2 kinds of time are analyzed and compared in more detail in Mircea Eliade's 'The Myth of the Eternal Return'.
Thank you. Very interesting. We must take responsibility to shape the future as we want it to be.

The internet and utube are like a sweet shop/candy store and most go for the high sugar content and avoid the unpalatable truth
When he's fiddling with his pen, he performs this funny twist. Did anyone else notice that? How on earth do you do that?
What article does he refer to quoting that "the Times has published an article showing Trump doesn't have any money."?
This is criticism ad ignorantium. Where are the qyutes? The context? Blank out. How sad.

Watching in 2021. Wonder how mr. Snyder would apply that thinking to president Biden’s policies…
Wartaal!

Post modern fascism, don't need to build anything
No, the did not in a thousand years. Accept a for a few mosks....

Minute 1h13 not blame everything on russia
I'm suprised he raised the question. Good job. Pity his hero laughed in his face. Not be mentioning that again I guess.
@@GrimUpNorth77 I found the answer to be one of the most interesting moments of the video.

Mr. Snyder, we are not that stupid...
I had a look at your video’s. You seem to be.
