On the Impact Theory podcast, Zuby discusses America's optimistic culture, emphasizing its significant progress over the last century in terms of equality and tolerance. Despite recent signs of cultural decline, he highlights the importance of perspective and gratitude.
Zuby points out that many Americans lack a global view, leading to an underappreciation of their own country's achievements. He observes that societal issues like suicide and drug overdoses reflect deeper problems within a prosperous society. Additionally, Zuby stresses the need to celebrate historical triumphs over racism and bigotry while continuing to strive for improvement.

Recent Subscriber from Alabama, USA 🇺🇸!! America loves Zuby!
Thanks!
The true meaning of “build back better” is to “burn it down,” first.
and let Blackrock own them
ZUBY is a GREAT GUEST. Thank you for having him on.
I used to be a patriot. Then 3 things happened.
I became a follower of Jesus Christ
I started to travel a lot, including many poor countries.
I learned how to do actual, in depth research.
What I learned is that for all the good America does in the world, it is all surface level.
There is usually sketchy tihs going on behind the scenes to screw people and countries over. Sometimes brutally.
America has an agenda and it aint love thy neighbor, or even close.
It's more like do what we tell you. Even if it is not in the best interests, and if you don't there will be he'll to pay.
Unless you're Israel, lol.
Amen
@@BA-mv8pp well, we (British) used to do that. It’s what powerful states have always done. When you inevitably fall from the top position, you’ll fall victim to it yourselves. Such is the story of humanity.
The difference is that as we try to hang on to power, we have the capability, and willingness, to destroy the world in the process.
All the while telling our citizens we're the good guys, and the enemy (whoever it is) is a threat to our security.
@@BA-mv8pp America is Lucifer on earth
USA more like the American Empire
The CIA/America was supporting the segregation in South Africa 🇿🇦
@@arafatcham2306 Bru you speaking facts. Whilst the NP was spouting racist nonsense America was stealing our resources from cheap black labour.
Yep, America is great, but I think people underestimed tha really bad things US did in name of "freedom". In name of "freedom", the Democrats financed brazilian dictatorship for decades. Financed rubber extraction on the north Brazil, that caused many social problems. Financed many brazilian activists to try to push the "one drope rule" view of race in a massive mixed race country. There're lots of situation well documented about the bad interventions on Brazil, until today. Currently, many nutritionists are fight against huge lobby of american food industry that I trying hard remove from brazilian families the basica meal ( rice an beans ), to change to ultraprocessed and corn flakes breakfeast.
@@arafatcham2306 what? where?
@@Treyrizer go check how the cia was helping the apartheid government capture Nelson Mandela . USA 🇺🇸 got Mandela on a terrorist list and was taken off a bit recently
This comment could be a bit misleading... It's not quite right to say the CIA or the U.S. government outright "supported" segregation in South Africa. That said, during the Cold War, there were times when U.S. actions (or lack of action) were seen as indirectly backing the apartheid regime. However, the U.S. position did change over time, eventually playing a key role in helping to dismantle apartheid.
Respectfully, this guy Zuby is a bit self-congratulatory and simple minded as far as how society shapes people.
How so?
"Deaths of Despair" is a big deal in the US. However, it isn't tracked very well though, perhaps because it is shamefully embarrassing. For example, it is difficult to get a breakdown of ages and ethnicities. Despite the fact that it contributes to our crisis of demographic collapse, we don't publicly discuss it much on Legacy Media.
This reminds me of what Danny Elfman said how his views were changed after travelling around the world.
What he said?
@@IronMan-tk8uc Something like how he was a far lefty but after living abroad and returning to the US he was to the right of Joe McCarthy, but has mellowed since then. Something like that.
@@sdrc92126 Ok.
So basically Western society need to apply The Bible and get faith and ethics again…
Try a different religion. Yours led to what it is now.
@__-bc4bs Let's not say we go there.
@@gracenote108 no it was only when we stopped taking religion seriously that we got these problems. Honestly most of our current problems were created because of secular materialistic worldview
@@__-bc4bs you don't need a Bible to learn morals in life.
@@garthhancock3373 Where do you think western morals come from? Sounds like you want the house but don't like the foundation
I mean no disrespect, please hear me out.
I think conservatives don't realize how big of a turn-off it is when they constantly force their religion into conversation. I have friends of all stripes, and I hear this complaint all the time.
Someone called me Satanic on a youtube comment the other day.... imagine feeling so bold as to call a lifelong Buddhist satanic? I felt so insulted. That's not winning anyone over.
Again, there is no disrespect. It's just something to meditate on.
I think there are a few points that still need to be understood. 1, Jim Crow was not that long ago for our country either and many cities that were redlined still have the same racial makeup today. 2, racism is a modern concept it did not exist during ancient times and people forget that. It derives essentially from propaganda and propaganda in itself is a technology that advances and changes. A victim of effective propaganda does not know they are being conditioned. 3, A lot of racism in America is tied to foreign interest and colonialism. Racism through propaganda provides the means and justification for our country to invade another land with support from the people. Its much more complicated, nuanced, and engrained in our society as people understand
Appreciate America! 🎉
Quick note on South Africa. White people are 15-16% of the population in Cape Town but less than 7% nationally. That number will drop drastically in the next 10-15 years, as the "apartheid generation",born in the 40s, those that Americans cool boomers start to die out. Most of they're children have moved overseas and will not return.
So the replacement rate for white south africans is well into negative territory.
The drop in white birth rates doesn't correlate to a loss in power. The boomer population are passing the keys of control to their children and grand children.
Well said…
For what it is worth, as a very moderate and typical Australian, in general we see America as completelyconfusing. You seem so agressive and divided and angry. The political situation is astounding. Here we all have our political views but it is never an "us and them" scenario. We all have our opinions but it would never evolve into attacking each other on the street over it.
I think the sky is green.
Nothing is more un-american than caring what the rest of the world thinks of us.
The rest of the world don’t have freedom and opportunity like America has.
The USA is staying far behind.
I believe American society has an admirable capacity to change direction quickly, but just like with planes and ships, this agility comes with instabitlity. The USA does not have all this history weighing it down like the rest of the West.
Together with SA, it used to be the outlier and embarassement of the West in racism though. The British Empire combining racism with cultural superiority does not amount to white supremacy, that's a specifically American concept that was actually copied by the Nazi Germans and narrowed down to a specific kind of whites. No matter how much progress has been made, the USA is still very much about race in ways that are unimaginable in Western Europe.
"USA does not have all this history weighing it down" ... except those two nukes on metropolitan cities melting and incinerating hundreds of thousands of women and children, Thảm sát Mỹ Lai with over 500 women and children raped and murdered and William Calley pardoned after 3yrs "house arrest, No Gun Ri 노근리 양민 학살 사건 300 civilian women and children shot to death, 2019 Baghouz 80 women and children had a 2,000lb JDAM dropped on their heads, 1997 Madeleine Albright on live tv admits to the US starving to death over 500,000 Iraqi children and says it was worth it to "achieve US goals". You friend are not weighed down by US history because you live in 1984 where it is carefully hidden from you, all while the rest of the world sees it all and seethes. Just imagine what Israel has hidden from you.
I would say worst country to live in the West right now. 1) Canada 2)US 3) UK
New Zealand?
South Africa? (Yup, it still counts)
New Zealand is nice
@@malcolmadam2194 also overly woke and expensive.
In comparision to what?
Worse compared to what or where?
That white guy was in utter disbelief. But let's unpack some of his statements. He said, "In South Africa, you can still find pockets of all white or all black places." Well, that's true in America too. Even Washington DC, has those places. Secondly, the black-white wealth gap is better in South Africa than in the United
States. In addition, he mentioned that the mortality rates in the US are due to self inflicted wounds, namely, drugs. This is a terribly naive statement that ignores food quality, big pharma, and the whole drug war
scene. Also, if white supremacist attitudes don't exist, then why is there a disparity in education, health-care, development, incarceration, and standards of living between races? These attitudes never go away, it's the fear of consequences that keeps people at bay. In addition, he sounds like somebody who traveled with an interest group whose sole purpose was to reinforce his biases. But I too have lived in two countries, over a decade in each, and I can honestly tell you, these comparisons are bs. There's advantages and disadvantages in both. Every country has things it does better than the others, and things it's worse at than its peers. Some of these may be natural or geographic factors that other countries cannot emulate. But the fact remains, the more a country moves away from the "State of Nature," the more freedom it loses. Conservatives know this and are right to call for a "Small government." I know people have an interest in propping up their home countries but things are usually more complex than what they appear to be on face value. Case in point, I see Americans in disbelief about how cheap things are in Africa, but that's in context to the dollar and an American salary. Similarly, our opinions usually need context.
@@aerofred2002 a man says drugs are part of the problem and you say he's ignoring that drugs are part of the problem, right after admiting he said drugs are part of the problem. 🙄
@sylvarogre5469 I'm sure you've misread my comment. What I objected to was his assertion that addition is a self-inflicted wound, which isn't always the case.
Man, get to the point. “Elements of self destruction?” Stop with the word salad and say what you mean. The leading cause of death is congestive heart failure, not suicide.
he said for men under 50. If you include older people than heart failure leads.
We've saved the world's ass so much that I'm to the point I think we should just go back into isolation and let them try to fend for themselves
@@chrissyp7 but you haven't. WW2 definitely, and that's the biggest and most important war, but Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq in no way saved the world and were conducted for the benefit of the Military Industrial Complex.
Please do it, stay in own yard!!!
I'm yet to see someone or something you saved. Ive only seen things you destroyed or took control of. You're the very reason we despise you :D can't even comprehend how harmful you've been for everyone else.
You can't "fend" for anyone now, since your enemies are stronger than you :D so stay away
We're like the hard working family man, who makes a lot of money, has the bihgest house in the neighborhood hood, sends his kids to private schools, and has great, entertaining stories to tell at neighborhood parties.
But we beat our wife, abuse our kids, and make our money by running a cartel.
Saved the world? Its this arrogance that causes a negative attitude towards the US.
Dude, this guy you're talking to is such a disingenuous person.
@@scottttym what?
@@jesterbons1558 he cares for nothing but subs.
He got lucky with some silicon valley crap.
He is a complete Beta.
@@scottttym If you don't actually have a constructive critique with evidence and points, don't comment. He is a beta means nothing. What are his points? What don't you agree with?
