Skit: Whitest Kids You Know
I know in interviews they said they always had trouble figuring out how to end sketches, but this one is absolutely perfect
This is probably the best ending to a sketch on the show.
...... well.....maybe horses love stegosauruses
CHESTER, GET ME ANOTHER BUCKET!!
I’m inspector something of the flying something division. You two have been nicked.
"I made this shirt, please give me some of your food" is actually a great shirt idea.
so is "Shirt inspector"
What are you, some kind of cop?
Just checking in two years later to see how you’re doing. Everything alright?
@@WK12112 legend has it that hes still making shirts and getting food
yo sick vehemence pfp
"Well the password is just welcome" Honestly I wouldn't be shocked if that were true for some of the actual nuclear power plants.
I worked in an IT Security Job for a while and 'welcome' would be an improvement for a lot of places, the amount of post-its with passwords on them stuck to the monitor or Computers with no password at all is scary. And I worked for a fucking Bank ... so that's how secure your Money is.
There's a great John Oliver episode on our nuclear launch sites and how they still use ancient floppy discs, the big ones, and have extremely rudimentary systems in other areas, plus a lot of the staff do poorly on their proficiency reports :/
Idk about the plants but wouldn't be surprised if it was also kind of lackluster
Our infrastructure & power systems haven't been updated for generations, just constant deadlock from super PACs, corporate interests and extremely polarizing douchebags in charge blocking anyone from doing anything..whether it's the PC police or alt right bible thumpers pushing archaic values, nobodies focusing on our electrical infrastructure, roads, bridges, it's all decaying pretty damn fast
@@KaladinVegapunk Neither the "the PC police" nor the "alt right bible thumpers (?) pushing archaic values" are preventing the government from fulfilling its obligations. If anything there's too many idiots like Jon Oliver pushing infotainment that keeps people clapping like seals while thinking they are educated. But even that has nothing to do with nuclear launch sites.
Wasn't the nuclear launch code just 00000000 for like 20 years?
I'm taking CompTIA courses. In the security sections, they stress the importance of passwords that have all these precautions and extra characters and everything, then you get to the labs and the instructions are literally like, "... and then enter 'security123' for the password."
I love how they go from being rebels to slowly becoming a society.

"you hated the stupid government so much you became the stupid government"
Every time someone brings up anarchy I think of this video
Anarchists DESTROYED with FACTS and LOGIC
This video is a more accurate depiction of democracy than it is of anarchy. Still funny though
It's unfortunate because this was a parody, (of the communists/socialists types) obviously and most regular anarchists are not like this. The point I think was to say that even after you overthrow the government, you still need a market economy to get people to do the things that are required for society to function. i.g. Provide food for people to survive and thus run things that are required for people to......survive (and thrive).
@@scalp340 yeah it’s sort of how like most people that are “libertarian” just want more state rights in the US. They don’t want no taxation they just want to pay less federal and have all their taxes go to their state/county.
@@FumblsTheSniper or rather just have more autonomy over their money and how it's spent on the things they agree we all need.
I'm more inclined to say taxation is theft, but that isn't saying anything against some of the programs and services that taxes go to.
Cue a thousand comments along the lines of "This isn't real anarchy!" or "Anarchy totally isn't like that, guys!"
Boccs because it isnt. i still find it funny tho
ayoutubechannel The whole point of this skit was to be ironic, proving that pure anarchy cannot work in a modern society. That should have been rather apparent...
ayoutubechannel Haha, indeed it is
GOAE7777 lol, the point is that this groups 16yr old version of anarchy rapidly degraded into an organized form of community. It's not intended to be some meaningful statement on whether or not anarchy would work in a modern society.
"anarchy" only "works" when there is a welfare system for them to live off of, or else they would all die, likely from committing suicide lol
The nuclear guy reminds me of Hank Green
"Hey I do something stupid! Feed my ass for it!" XD
"I'll be a shirt inspector." Love this.
That guy sounds like a cop
Hands down the greatest WKUK sketch and such amazing political social commentary.
I mean, not really. I'm far from a communist but I do know that anarchism as an ideology is much more sophisticated than "no rules" and shouldn't really be taken as "amazing political social commentary"
@@christiangamingchannel6284 why not become one - there is always room in the movement for a christian gaming channel - jesus was a communist after all

It kinda misrepresents Anarchists tho... like the actual ideology is just about egalitarian standards and based off the Greek word of without chief.

@@PixelChristian93 Workers. Anarchists don't oppose labour - it's literally a labour movement. This video doesn't make much sense.
@@TheLokiBiz Sure it does. The idea is that they quickly discover the need for some form of governmental oversight - people to oversee the nuclear plants, people to oversee the people overseeing the nuclear plants, and Zach the fed to make sure they're all doing what they're supposed to. Naturally, Zach had to go because "anarchy!"
@@TheLokiBiz Who makes sure the movie theater is safe in case of fires?
@@dodec8449 The same people who would in our current system, essentially. In an anarchist/communist society, we could vote for these things via direct democracy, as well as come up with fire codes etc. - Seriously, if you're too lazy to read some Peter Kropotkin or Emma Goldman, at least read the wikipedia article on "anarcho-communism" before asking me incredibly basic questions.
There's also a great resource called "The Anarchist FAQ" online - TH-cam wont let me post a link, but it's the first result when you google "anarchist faq"

Lol people up in these comments getting into mad serious discussions to the viability of various different forms of anarchy-type movements.
and almost none of them have any clue what anarchism is
@@ulture Yeah the butt-hurt anarchists who have only lived comfy lives of sheer luxury and have zero discernable, useful skills are really educating us all on how they would be great at farming their own land, fixing their own machines, and apparently re-inventing modern medicine.

@@ulture Nonsensical comment, but ok.
@@ulture Race war might be a little far, a fight due to values/morals is entirely possible in this country though. The problem for the other folks that are complete lunatics is they don’t have arsenals in their basement for self defense.

theres some juicy shit in there
@@David22092001 You have it backwards. Anarchism imagines that everyone in society is just going to magically be friends in the absence of "hierarchy", which is nonsense on its face. It can't deal with people who are dickheads, or even people who aren't dickheads but just don't care to play along, without reneging on its basic premise and coming up with some form of government or police *but anarchist, we swear*.
This seems relevant to recent activities in certain blue states.
Cough cough Seattle sorry smoker's cough

imagine seriously thinking either of the USA's major parties have any tenets that even remotely resemble anarchism. Mind you, neither do the characters in this sketch.

@@MrRabiddogg all violence is instigated by the police and they've been filmed burning buildings, smashing windows, planting pallets of bricks at protests to escalate them, etc.

Ok... so what I'm getting is that if we get rid of all the nuclear power plants, we can achieve anarchy.
Unironically one of the best satires against anarchism/statelessness and Ted K types.
im an anarchist and i agree, a lot of self proclaimed anarchists think the entire ideology is not doing work or shouting edgy stuff. makes me sad
@@420bongking amen to that. to be self sufficient there is still plenty of work and organizing, the point is less like not doing any work and more like having a more direct say in the way things run and no arbitrary hierarchies
anarchism isn't about not having any work, industrialism or rules, it's about decentralising power where it can be achieved. Lots of institutions could be democratized further and state power reduced in the right conditions, anarchists push for those conditions. The idea of a world with no state, currency or capitalism is not something anarchists want for tomorrow, it's more like a hypothetical idea of what the world would look like centuries from now if we keep defending and pushing for more freedoms and equality.
@@puddleglum9179 youre talking to someone with a centurian wojak pfp, its a waste of time
@@420bongking i assumed he was like a 14 year old cause i also had that phase back then, but at least i wanted to put the argument out there for a neutral observer who is rarely exposed to actual anarchist perspectives. Anarchists are in this weird political camp where the actual academic and political theory is dwarfed by the punk aesthetic that defines it. People know what an anarchist looks like and know what general policies they might support but not why they support those policies, the larger framework anarchists use. It's a shame too because i would LOVE to hear people's thoughts on anarchist theory, how they would oppose it or what alternatives they might come to but nobody engages with it enough to get there. I'm not even an anarchist myself, im more of a traditional democratic socialist, but i think that if more people were exposed to anarchist arguments than 14 year olds wanting to be cool and edgy online would be harmless punks who at worst would argue for human rights in a stupid way rather than weirdo reactonaries playing dress up and denying the holocaust.
They should make a part 2 where a armed Rapper/Pimp show up and declare themselves Warlord

You could never have anarchy because it won't take long before someone can do something someone else can't and will need to ask for help. And some people can do things no one can do that everyone needs so to survive they will have to ask for their help. Soon enough everybody owes everybody something and boom, you have an economy. It's ignorant to think that anything else would happen if we started from scratch again.
But don'tchya know? Everyone will work for everyone for the greater common good! That's how humanity works, right? Right?

LOL AnComs
/ancaps/anprims/an in general
+Mike Horne Wouldn't this really only relate to primitive anarchists though? AnComs would agree with what was said in this video and AnCaps would just pay the guy to keep the reactor from going crazy.
Except AnCaps have the issue that they refuse to force anyone to pay, and so the burden falls squarely on those people who voluntarily pay - and those people are thus incentivized not to continue being AnCaps. If the burden is too great, you either suffer the collapse of the infrastructure (or in this case a meltdown), or you find a way to FORCE everyone to pay a share - and then we're back to conventional forms of government that enforce rule of law with the threat of sanction and violence.
Ah good to see I’m not the only boomer who thought of this
@vasgeorge anarchy, "a absence of government." or so, the dictionary says. Seems like they got it right to me, however once they saw they need people to keep the fuel rods cool and prevent meltdowns that will destory life in that area. They could pretty much no longer have anarchy in it's purest form. So, how would you deal with all the nuclear reactors while living in a world populated by anarchists?
Holy fuck this was a warning.
Anarchism is no hierarchy, not no society
"Hey guys what if we formed a group and we could pool all of our resources and energy together and we could take from all these other people and protect ourselves better." Cue the slow process of groups conquering each other and getting bigger and bigger until we just have countries and governments again because as it turns out society is just the logical conclusion to the question of human thriving
Ironically, this rings home far more now.
Probably the single most important video of our current time
Darren:
“HEY!” Then doesn’t say anything else
Live look at the CHAZ
I think of 1:19 way too much
I love this so damn much
The thing that most people, (Including most self-proclaimed anarchists,) get wrong about anarchy is that it's less about casting off the yoke of society, and more about the maintenance of small, localized governments. It's not about 'the man's not telling you what to do', it's about doing what you need to survive a long with your small community of colonists.
this is really a great skit, a commentary on how we'll never really be free of technology and social bonds no matter how destructive those things can be, because at some level they are tools necessary for survival.
even if they weren't necessary for survival, maintenance to avoid the destruction of the planet is a burden we've placed on ourselves that we can't simply just choose to ignore
@@christopherthompson5400I’d say that is tangential. We are social creatures, whether the problem we’re solving is nuclear meltdown or who is going to do the fishing
this is actually a big problem.. if shit hits the fan.. the Plants will bloom .

The ending is such an underrated part of this bit lol
Came to this video when Minneapolis said they were making the next police system after disbanding the police.
Same. "Oh shit, who's going to protect us now?". 'oh hey, I'm Doug and I'll patrol the streets with my firearm.' "You sound like a cop. And why are all the handicapped spots taken?".
They handled it horribly, for a second I thought they were gonna go full blown ancap with the private police they started to enforce

The best critique of anarchism I've seen so far and it still doesn't hold much water - they'd still be working wayyy less and enjoying free movies wayyy more with this minimalist government that essentially just keeps the nuclear power plant cool.
If it was longer they would have just kept going until they had a society pretty much resembling what we have now

A whole lot of people in this comment section need to google Murray Bookchin
To all of the people saying this isn't anarchy: People without rules will do whatever they want. Because of Man's selfish and wicked nature, they would get pretty close to this. If you tried to add rules, they could no longer have anarchy. Therefore, there could not be a more accurate depiction of anarchy.
Awobbie. I don't think you quite grasp the concept of anarchy. It's not the absence of rules. It's the absence of illegitimate authority (or more specifically it's the ability to question and decide if it's legitimate or not). Man's "selfish and wicked nature", some would say, is a systematically reinforced social construct. In other words, what really is human nature? We might not actually know. We know what it is under our current conditions of the system in which we live, but what would it be like under different circumstances? There's a little more to it than what one, glancing at it, might think.
William Sophistos Throughout Anarchy and Facism, Revival and Apostasy, Poverty and Riches, Oppression and Freedom, Possession and Envy, Communism and Capitalism, Bondage and Liberty, one thing has been constant regarding a man's actions, and that is that they have intrinsically evil, whether it be due to selfishness, cruelty, or pride.
Andy Jokerst I think that people who believe that should find a different word, because the word "Anarchy" is already used to refer to "No Law".
Andy Jokerst So that's the definition that probably needs a new word.
True. However rules don't stop ppl from doing things if they want. A suicidal murderer won't stop cuz a law said they couldn't. Look at school shootings. Totally illegal. Totally happens.
Or, do you think laws stopped drug addicts from doing the substance they want? Absolutely not.
So, it is in my belief, that the only things holding people back from being nutcase, is, good morals, empathy, maturity, awareness of the consequences of your actions, and overall the most important: self control!
If ppl will fall into chaos without a central authority, that's quite sad. And would go to say that we are heathens without a collectivist-statist government ... I think that gives the government too much credit, and us too little credit. The government isn't stopping me from being chaotic or bad or violent (for example.) I am preventing it: self control! And a strong will do do (or in that extreme example, the will not to do.)
Have a wonderful day! :)
“No! No work! Free movies!” best political platform I’ve heard since the French revolution.
