@@daddydeadpool9871 problem is that the modern "nationalism" has the same effect as being imperial peons - creating stigma. As long as people blindly react to stigma and not forethink using facts and reason people will keep making mistakes. Earlier it was "adopt Europe at all costs" and now it is "avoid Europe at all costs." Two sides of the same coin.
This is the most accurate description of modern day India I have ever heard from a foreigner. Even our constitution is 90% copied from British. Don't worry, you won't get any hate comments from Indians as most of the Indians agree with whatever you said.
I mean we studied various laws and formed our own, and I think most of the Democratic nations follow the values and principles that originated from Europe, like equality, freedom, fraternity, justice and etc.
Im from Germany. I think India is the country with the greatest potential in this century if it can overcome this colonial daddy issues. It has a culture that has a good chance to adapt to the modern world while not declining into a totalitarian state like China.
He has actually ignored the fact that the Britishers we more interested in dividing India than uniting it, in which they succeeded to an extent. The fact that the real colonial history is not taught in the west they cannot digest that Indians themselves united when faced a common foe that were the British. Also you might look at Maurya dynasty or even Mahabharat, King Bharat, Chanakyas teaching, etc where you will find a united India, you might consider some of them as myth but the fact that these examples are thousands of years old hence they could not have been influenced by the invaders like British who had no taste of civilization then and might be roaming naked in the forest.
@@ak476able the Sikh Empire was extremely diverse and peaceful (may also be since it was richest country in the world at the time) but then 98 years later millions died during partion in the same reign because there was so much hate between different religions and Pakistan was created for Muslims, which I understand despite my Grandparents being kicked out of west panjab for being a Sikh in wrong place (despite Panjab being the land for Panjab and before the British panjab being ruled by Sikhs) I think the hate between the religious has been pushed even further divide and conquer practices have been taken up by the Indian government for decades now and made things only worse, to the point I genuinely believe to protect Sikhi Khalistan should be created as well

Just like clarify some points on India (Warning : This might trigger Indians and British Alike) 1. The reason India's system of government is so much like the British,because it was imposed upon the Indians ,as Indians didn't achieve their Independence,it was given to them as the British Empire was on decline,but the British made sure to put their Stooges in places of power in India ,like Jawaharlal Nehru ,who made sure India maintained good relations with the UK . 2. Even after Independence,most Indian suffer from inferiority complex and most don't even dislike the British ,the reason is the years brain wash ,done by the education system ,which glorified the British ,teaching Indians that the British enriched India with English,Railways and their European Culture,it taught that Indians were inferior to the Europeans ,that Indians were a backward community. So,this and a weak pro- British government caused this confusion among Indian minds. 3.Winston Churchill was considered far worse than Hitler in India. If you were a poor farm worker living in Bengal(India) you really didn't care if some guy killed 6 million Jews on the other side of the world when a fat British guy took the food away from your people and killed 4 million of your own brethren. This is why there is so much hate for Winston Churchill in India.
british system is clearly better than the current indian system. I dont even want to know what kind of shthole india would be if it wasnt for the british occupation.
In my entire life as an Indian I never read a textbook glorifying the British. All education system taught me about railways is that British built it increase their exploitation. Idk where you are drawing your information from.
Where did britishers were glorified in our books? can you please enlighten us, in school i never read something which glorified britishers but they always talked about how britishers were cruel towards the whole subcontinent, i don't know from where you are getting this info. Wasn't ambedkar was the one who was responsible for law drafts(i maybe wrong with the word here, sorry)? I never read any book which said that british enriched india with english railways, eurpean culture and indian were inferiors to europeans or indians were a backward community, you are just making things up and are you sure about the government being pro british as every body has noted that jawaharlal nehru was pro socialist

It hurts to hear, but as a german i kinda agree with what you say. The country and by extension the EU seem to have lost all sense of self or direction. It's actually sad and terrifying since all seems well on the surface, but i don't know how secure my future is anymore. I don't know what's on the horizon, but it feels like Europe is losing its status, wealth and identity, like there's a big storm on the horizon... Even just using the word "identity" feels like it could be offensive, as it implies being something, and the ideology of inoffensive individualism is intrinsically linked to being non-descript. A society like that can't possibly survive.
A society cannot survive without religion. "Religion", is a human's direction, it's what gives life its meaning, it can be more accurately defined as a "path" for life. China and Europe are places with very high rates of atheism, even though many atheists consider themselves christian in theory, but in practice they are not, which I still count as atheism. Atheism is a big sign of collapse because when nothing bonds humans to life and together, what can they do? They have less children, thus the economy falls, and thus the whole country falls because the military and police cannot be paid. America does not have that big of a problem because christianity has a stronger foothold there.
@@Novumvir Not really, most people going into the government are atheist. We also have a huge rise of fake christians in gen z. They say they are christian but act atheist and usually have no morales.
@@Novumvir Of course a Society can survive without what you call Religion. Atheism is not the absence of shared believes or moral frameworks. That's just religious propaganda. Atheism usually just means that you believe in a few dumb things less.
@@eran3161 This is the reality. It's not religion that holds society together, it's a moral social contract and the lack of inherent division among people, and sharing a religion is but one way of achieving that goal. It's the easiest, but also perhaps not the most healthy. ATM religion in the west, and the US, is doing more to divide rather than unite, so at the moment, it is doing more harm than good, but this is how religion is unhealthy. It works great while it's working great, but it will turn on itself at the first sign of struggle. Religion needs to love and be accepting first, before people will accept it. Pointing fingers at those outside your religion and yelling 'you are to blame' is undermining the very purpose of religion.

Nothing of note will happen as long as Putin holds power. Now, after he serves his due and the whole establishment gets filled with new blood by that time, things will start to get interesting.
@Joseph He might have provided sponsorship to populist parties in the EU, but it is a big misconception by the Westerners that Putin is any kind of populist, or even a right wing politician. Consensus among Russian public intellectuals seems to be that his regime is non-ideological and flexible, focusing on internal stability of said regime and trying in futility to keep the geopolitical status quo around them. There is no ideology, no "national interests" because there is no such a thing as "Russian" in Constitution, no ambitions beyond flexing muscles. Now the generation of young bureaucrats and politicized youth is more interesting. When they will inevitably gain power in existing institutions, some big ideas are bound to shape Russian politics, both internally and abroad.
14:04 Agree with many of the points about India. One point where I would interject is on hindu nationalism. Hindu nationalism is indeed civilizational nationalism, not a religious one. If you read the writings of its founders, it becomes clear. The definition of "hindu" being used here is in line with what the term was used for historically and how the constitution uses it as well. 1. Before the british, and before the formalization of various religions as "-isms" in the flavor of Christianity and Islam, the term hindu was used to denote the pagans of India. No matter which gods you worshipped, which guru you followed, which sect you belonged to, you were a hindu. A negative definition - of those who were NOT christian or muslim. A positive definition was given with formalized "hindu-ism", of it being vedic dharma, including all the vedic schools of philosophies and sects. But even then, a lot of non-vedic and contradictory schools were also considered hindu, for example the 'lingayats', and even a ton of various indigenous gods and practices who had nothing to do with mainstream hinduism. That is again inline with what hindu means, bcz all the indigenous sects and distinct philosophies, all were at some point assimilated into the larger dharmic sphere by either the brahmins themselves or by the rulers of the time. For example, during the classical era, it is recorded that vedic priests used to go to these indigenous societies, and include their gods and goddesses into the larger hindu pantheon as some or the other form of avatar/variation. So that meme of 36 million or something gods, it is in reality this, that even a lot of households have ancestral family deities of their own, whom only they and their ancestors before them had worshipped. All of these different gods were eventually assimilated into the larger hindu whole, while their ways of life, practices, rituals etc. continued as is, making these various sects and schools part of the larger dharma. 2. And secondly, the constitution itself recognizes this, and states everyone to be hindu, unless specifically defined to be distinct. So for example, christians, muslims, zoarastrians, would be considered by their own religious denominations. For a long time, even jains, sikhs and buddhists were included under the term hindu. And even today, if you are an atheist in India, you are a hindu according to the constitution. Savarkar, the founder of the Hindutva ideology and hindu nationalism, goes to the lengths of finding and defining what a 'hindu' is. Coming to the same conclusion - of the people of India who dont actively subscribe to the larger global pan-islam or the global christendom. And ofcourse, since all the differences amongst the people here, through philosophies, through rituals, culture, practices, etc.(none of which we can really destroy, as it is truly what defines us), doesn't much help with political unity, Savarkar recognized a need for a common identity, and a nationalism on the back of it, if Indians/hindus are to ever stand as a singular unit and fight against our civilizational enemy. Since hindus dont have the political/congregational unity of christianity and islam, it is through a civilizational nationalistic ideology that they must come together, despite differences. A common civilizational identity, representing the longest running continous human civilization, with unique unparalleled values of religious/cultural mutual respect based coexistence, and a diversity that naturally emerges from such mutual respect, manifesting in diverse forms of languages, art, architecture, literature, philosophies, religions, music, dances, traditions, etc. So a common identity of 'hindu', representing this hindu/indian civilization was created(which is again, inline with the historic and constitutional understanding of the term 'hindu'). In this paradigm, eventually even the muslims and christians who were loyal to India and the Indian civilization, and not to the global ummah, were included in this definition. Foreigners who would adopt indic civilization as their own were to be considered a part. And while we cannot wash away these differences, some were considered to be obsolete and a hindrance to the indian society and civilization, as mentioned in Savarkar's "Seven shackles of hindu society". The caste system was one such source of differences, and Savarkar called for and worked for an end to social caste divisions. Hindu nationalism today is THE biggest anti-caste movement in India. Other anti-caste movements are usually hostile towards people's culture, religion, identities and traditions, they are aggressive and try to instill hatred amongst people for their gods, their practices, culture, people etc. And would also want to convert them into either christianity or islam or some kind of revolutionary marxist atheism on back of this resentment. People by and large, even from lower classes(who form the masses), are not looking for this and dont like this. They love their gods, their culture and ways. They simply want to be treated with dignity and equality and feel included. This is EXACTLY what hindu nationalism provides. Hindu nationalists are a fairly conservative people, who advocate for tradition, culture, religiosity etc. but also work against social divides based on caste and class lines. While Savarkar wanted to get everything done in his lifetime and went out of his way to arrange inter-dining, and mixing of people of different castes, for which he recd. massive backlash from some sections of the society as well, RSS/BJP's philosophy is more practical, and they say that real positive social change takes time and in this vain, RSS also arranges activities and events for intermixing of various groups, while giving representation and advocacy to the lower sections of society, uniting all of them under the common larger 'hindu' identity(rather than staying divided in their own caste/regional/ethnic identities) and making them feel included and a part of it. The BJP actively works in formulation and implementation of social inclusion schemes of all sorts, truly give representation to backward sections of society, and also works in formulation of economic schemes targeted at these sections, as without economic independence and power, no real change is possible. This is precisely why hindu nationalists are doing incredible in the democratic processes of India(which are dominated by these same lower class masses), and will continue to dominate in the foreseeable future, despite the ill-informed perceptions and cluelessness around hindu nationalism in the rest of the world.
I think in future we will not need hindu nationalism because we will be strong/industrialized by then, there aren't many threats towards us nowadays But yeah we still need hindu nationalism to protect ourselves and make us better as men
@@pax_indica political identity for hindus and political hinduism will always be needed, and since hindus dont congregate inherently, nationalism plays an important element in political hinduism.
It’s quite simple actually. It’s the ideal of libertarianism having to face the pragmatic questions raised by Robert Heinlein, and since almost all video games does not give you a middle ground for a democracy to solve the problem, people end up going fascism for the pragmatism even though they’d never do such a thing in real life.

@@funnyjokeman6175 Is that because the US is becoming a Latin American country through migration? I think most of Whatifalthist's view of America is based on Albion's Seed, a book written in 1989, and therefore he doesn't consider that modern mass migration can't be assimilated in the same way that older more controlled waves were, because this sort of thing didn't happen in America until the mid 1990s. Plus modern political correctness actively suppresses all the old processes that caused cultural assimilation.

Honestly I think currently that the EU is already at that spot of the immigration-crisis. But most people seem to prefer the established and moderate politics over the unstable ones. In belgium the current radical party that would push the anti-immigrant ideology has only seen succes on the flemish side. But all other parties, including their ideological brother, refuse any cooperation (since you cant work with them) and in flanders there also the idea of a free flanders which also support the same far right. Yet up until now the extreme hasnt been able to get into office simply because of majority rejection. And thats talking from a nation thats honestly messy. I think europe will stick to a social-democratic society, possibly trying to further control capitalism with as their reasoning climate change. With the EU remaining the unifying force.

@@Zwijger sadly yes, many people care jack shit for nationalism, atleast in nordic countries. All europeans have multiparty governments, exept brittain and their legacy setup with lords and 2 chambers instead of just one. Many smaller nations like the nordic countries would gladly give up some autonomy, in Denmark none of the eurosceptic parties have gone into parlament, exept "dansk folkeparti" but that was because they were the only ones that were hardlining against non western immigrants in 2015. And they have begun loosing power again. It would benefit trade, and militaryly, as the nordic countries can't trade internally, the ones with nationalism are bigger places like france,italy, greece(i think). Greece and italy is probably because resistance from the rest of the EU forcing responsable fiscal policy, when previous governments overspent or neglected taxation(Greece). Places like the eastern european like poland and hungrary are countries that are also eurosceptic except the baltics. As they have strong memory of strong entity controlling their country, probably.

well he doens't see any prospect for the E.U., yet he never gives a reason why. his reasons for countries or regions or civilisations continuing on are also rather vague and boil down to ideology and authoritarianism. one weak spot, there are many more. (not a believer in liberal democracy, i'd guess, which he seems to interpret as non-ideological non-authoritarianism). these videos are so packed and the content is presented so quickly that they can hardly be stommached, but as far as my knowledge goes with respect to some of the subjects touched, his claims almost always border heavy misunderstanding. i guess this isn't true for everything presented here. there are some stats and interesting facts and so on, but judged as athe mixture it is, it is, i'd argue, ... mixed.
@Sam Wallace No, he didn't. He made a distinction between countries he deems liberal and countries he deems illiberal, while saying that the illiberal countries will simply decret themselves out of developments he deems threatening, whereas the liberal countries won't (unless they're religious), despite both of them facing problems, some of them quite similar. (And despite the illiberal countries being worse off today by a lot of metrics.) He places very much weight on cultural authoritarianism and its assumed effectiveness. And he can give as many facts as he wants, as soon as it comes to prognosis, he must pull some stuff out of his ass, and this is where his biases show (as laid out in this comment and my prior comment.)

@Lovely Hitler most (not all) princely states were tributaries to the British. But yeah India was still fragmented at independence, then Sardar Patel united the country.

I carefully watched this video with great interest. Taking on the topic of the future of global ideology in a brief video is certainly an ambitious task. Of necessity, you have used a rather broad brush here. The sprinkling of names, dates, published facts and data is helpful. However, your summations and interpretations of this information come across more as speculation and conjecture, rather than as a robust and well-founded analysis. True experts and academics in the field would likely come to a host of different conclusions regarding many of the opinions you've offered. This video is concise and entertaining enough for the TH-cam audience. Yet, I find this presentation is best described as a bumper sticker version of "The Future of Ideology." One of the serious drawbacks of online forums is that they too often become a community exchange of collective ignorance. We can have sound and well-researched professional journalism, or we can have the democratization of information where everyone is a presumed authority... but we can't have both.
Id be interested in seeing this exact topic being brought up and discussed by a panel of historians from the regions included in the video. Perhaps even some who are of the secular variety and some of their more religious counter parts to see what they feel are the trajectories. Whether it would be over the span of a year or multiple id love to see them hash out predictions.

You are on point about the inferiority complex. But even though the genetic argument is indusputable the problem with the Aryan Invasion Theory is the word 'Invasion'. The theory AS STATED says that 'the light skinned Aryans "invaded" and civilized the "natives"'. Why should this be the case? They could be barbarians who invaded and then assimilated with the "natives", or there could be a mass migration and assimilation.

I'm afraid I would have to disagree as a Filipino, those who pay attention to the subtle influences from before Magellan Philippines already has (and is still around today) would realize the truth of what I'm saying, it's not obvious but someone who pays much attention to it would realize it. I see the Philippines more of as a place where different cultures from different parts of the world have ended up clustering and mixing together than really being part of Latin America. I guess it somewhat applies to the majority of the Philippines to an extent, but I fail to see for example how the Ifugaos and Moros in Mindanao would have much in common with the people in Latin America.

Your take on india was pretty accurate , civilisational form of nationalism is already rising . We are witnessing the formation of an alternate right wing here which is different from the traditional right wing .

Excellent, as usual. In your discussions on European history and nationalism, there was one concept I was looking for but didn't see. I will have to paraphrase it, but the concept is that Europeans saw nationalism as the cause of WW2 and therefore it's bad. Americans saw nationalism as what allowed them to rally to win WW2 and therefore it's good. Obviously, there are many other factors, but that one seems fundamentally sound to me, being an American who has lived in Europe for a decade.
yes, its the most basic pattern: the winner gets to write history, I've even seen a recent trend in america were communism is now tolerated, not surprising considering most of the "social justice" (or "woke") ideologist lean towards communism, no one seems to care about the crimes against humanity committed by communism which by any scientific metric are worse than 1940s germany or any other ideology... I've seen Jordan Peterson speak about this dynamic and he is worry that we are heading towards a "Wiemar republic situation".... but he is considered an "ultra right wing extremist"...
@@danyks4847 It was not communism that did those crimes. It was Stalin, it was Mao. Under communism there is no state, no money and people are not divided into classes. Communism as you see doesn't lead to crimes, it is just an ideology. Also, both USSR and China were never communist and even they identified as socialist, not communist. In fact there never was any country in history that was communist. However Stalin and Mao commited crimes not in the name of communism, but in the name of themselves and what would be the best for them.
I somewhat disagree. To be called or labeled as a “nationalist” in America is seen as an insult in mainstream media. Usually used by the left as a softer version of “white-supremacist.” I think the west synthesizes their history (as we see in how we’re taught history 1500s and up) as one instead of recognizing it as being parallel and spectate but influential on one another. I think it’s evident that America feels guilt for a lot of things Europeans did during Crusades, colonialism, ww2 etc… same goes for Europe in a reciprocating fashion as well. I think European media feels a sense of guilt or shamefulness for many things America has done like wars in the Middle East, slavery+segregation, American Imperialism, and especially the expansion of the American global economy. America has disdain for Europe being its parent just as Europe has disdain for America being its child.
I have been on youtube for over 10 years at this point and this is by far the most fascinating channel i have ever come across. Keep up the content man. You are doing gods work
@@GrigRP What about the Spanish, in the 1700's, the Portuguese before them and the Dutch that succeed the Portuguese in the Indian ocean. Its very niche club of partially or global domination, but its more then France and Britain.
I'm a generally left-leaning guy, who grew up in generally (sometimes extremely) left-leaning circles, and listening to u has been both vindicating and sobering, since I've noticed a lot of the left's troubling trends over my lifetime but seldom had anyone to talk to who'd listen or take it seriously w/out thinking me a bigot. It's also a relief to hear someone on the center-right acknowledge the issues with the right-wing backlash to the left's dissent into madness (even the more reasonable centrists, like JP's tribe, as well as the incels and actual nazis)
I just recently discovered this channel and am loving the content. I'm European, and I want to share some thoughts w.r.t. the rising right-wing sentiments that are intensifying in many Western European countries at this time. Naturally, there's a subset of the population who are explicitly racist (particularly older people), but it goes without saying that these parties could not achieve this level of support in the 21st century exclusively on account of racist sentiment. In my estimation, the reason why there's such a powerful resurgence in anti-immigration sentiment is that an increasing number of people now believe that core Islamic and European values are fundamentally incompatible. I'm referring here especially to core European values such as freedom of speech, freedom of press, gender equality, sexual minority rights, belief in facts and the scientific method, and somewhat of a disdain for the macho culture that is particularly dominant throughout the Middle East. For many decades, politicians who advocated for more immigration and taking in asylum-seekers in large numbers, did so in such a way that European populations got convinced that once an adult, 30-something refugee arrived in a European country, he would instantly realise how amazing European societies and cultures are, and would naturally proceed to reevaluate his entire belief system, and in so doing, adapt the European mind-set more or less overnight. Experience has proven otherwise: that it is, in fact, nearly impossible to change the fundamental values and beliefs of an adult. If you were forced to seek refuge in Saudi Arabia, you may be inclined to follow the law of that country, but you would probably never, truly, start believing in the justness of Sharia law. Such is the European predicament, as I see it. North America has been spared many of these issues, since the Atlantic Ocean makes it much easier for the US and Canada to screen and choose which migrants they want to provide asylum for. Thus, Europe's resurfacing right-wing sentiments are overwhelmingly due to ethnocentrism; that is, the belief that freedom of speech and democracy are inherently superior values to, for example, sharia law. I doubt many Europeans would be particularly averse to receiving immigrant labour from Hong Kong or Argentina, for example. Another contributing factor is the continent's aging population, since older people are generally more conservative, but the anti-immigration sentiments are definitely reflected across all age groups. Edit: Correction of some grammatical errors.
The modern pseudo-left in both North America (USA, Mexico, Canada) and Europe, is racist. The pseudo-left embraces the idea that "Those who dwell in Islamic countries perceive their own nations, cultures, and religion as evil, for they are victims of their own societies. They will therefore experience a cultural conversion upon being imported into the west, and assimilate seamlessly." What this boils down to is cultural-supremacy, the idea that "Western Lifestyles" are themselves the default human condition, and that these lifestyles and values will (by force of osmosis I suppose?) simply supplant 'lesser' or 'oppressive' values in the rest of the world. The march of history is towards liberty, we are told, but is it? America's 20 year 'experiment' in Afghanistan and Iraq disproves this idea. Look at the polling of people's sentiments in Afghanistan. 90+ percent of people in Afghanistan support 'some form' of Sharia. Yet we in the west believe that these people are 'victims' of Sharia, rather than supporters of this totalitarian ideology. [Source: www.pewforum.org/2013/04/30/the-worlds-muslims-religion-politics-society-beliefs-about-sharia/] This isn't confined to Afghanistan, sadly. Look at the ill-fated 'Arab Spring.' In Egypt, after deposing Mubarak, the population voted in the Muslim Brotherhood - a radical Islamist party that campaigned on implementing Sharia in Egypt. General Al Sisi stepped in and said "No," and installed himself as a military dictator. The story was the same in Libya and the rest of North Africa. The Arab Spring was deemed a failure here in the West. But was it a failure, or simply a reflection of the ideology of the populations?
Do you think that european values are objectively better than Muslim ones, do you think that Muslims are backward stone age barbarians? Because these are some of the things I'm understanding from your comment (not to the guy above me)
Nice to see a European who actually is looking at this phenomena with such an objective and factual lenses. Seriously, most Europeans I see either chug all the rising right wing populist sentiment to "muh racism!" but you actually hit it accurately. This is all due to rising ethnocentrism due to unfettered immigration and a perceived and sometimes real fear of cultural and societal undermining, not to mention security issues. It is not something unique to Europe. Even in Africa here, we tend to experience it. Heck! In Nigeria, we have been dealing with islamic extremism due to an influx of militants from Niger and Chad.
What I love about your videos is how you constantly admit without any shame - and why should there be - what you are not sure of, what you are guessing, or what you know you do not know.
I think you've got a lot wrong about Europe to be perfectly honest. In Europe, right wing politics tends to be a belief in the nation state, a rejection of the so-called European identity and a rejection of the extreme measures taken to "distance" from the nations that were. Things like taking refugees, importing immigrants, abandonment of cultural traditions. The European identity is sold as an absolvement of past sins (colonialism, fascism etc...). The right in Europe is a rejection of the idea that we must take in the third world because of our colonial past, drop our traditions, hold disdain for our nations because of our colonial past etc. It's not a rejection of Arabs. Europe is looking to go two ways, several nations are moving toward a unified European state while countries like Britain, Greece, Poland, Hungary etc. Can be described as "Eurosceptic". There is a big push towards a European identity at the moment and it's intentional. We are talking a bank, a parliament, elections, a justice system. These already exist and there are talks for more powers, such as a military (the first uniformed agency of the EU, a border force, was announced only months ago). After Britain leaving the EU we will have to see where the wind blows.
@@Eldueigudbd29473 right wing in europe is normally eurosceptic an anti EU or anti further eu integration , there is few pro EU right wing parties (sadly)
@Callum Williams What you wrote doesnt seem quite accurate. The extreme left rejects the European identity just as much as the extreme right does. So defining it by its nationalistic nature does not seem suitable. "Tradition" also doesnt really count as an ideology. Sure, there is a divide in Europe between pro-EU and anti-EU but it doesnt really seem to be a left vs right thing (it's more center vs extremes).

Thanks for your analysis. I would only add that Thailand is a bit of a special case, as its traditional culture is a blend of both Chinese and Indian influences.

Of course it’s also true that Thailand is very much a part of the global, capitalist economic system, with all that this entails, including rampant consumerism. Anyway, thanks again.

Also you might look at Maurya dynasty or even Mahabharat, King Bharat, Chanakyas teaching, etc where you will find a united India, you might consider some of them as myth but the fact that these examples are thousands of years old hence they could not have been influenced by the invaders like British who had no taste of civilization then and might be roaming naked in the forest.

Just like clarify some points on India (Warning : This might trigger Indians and British Alike)
1. The reason India's system of government is so much like the British,because it was imposed upon the Indians ,as Indians didn't achieve their Independence,it was given to them as the British Empire was on decline,but the British made sure to put their Stooges in places of power in India ,like Jawaharlal Nehru ,who made sure India maintained good relations with the UK .
2. Even after Independence,most Indian suffer from inferiority complex and most don't even dislike the British ,the reason is the years brain wash ,done by the education system ,which glorified the British ,teaching Indians that the British enriched India with English,Railways and their European Culture,it taught that Indians were inferior to the Europeans ,that Indians were a backward community. So,this and a weak pro- British government caused this confusion among Indian minds.
3.Winston Churchill was considered far worse than Hitler in India.
If you were a poor farm worker living in Bengal(India) you really didn't care if some guy killed 6 million Jews on the other side of the world when a fat British guy took the food away from your people and killed 4 million of your own brethren.
This is why there is so much hate for Winston Churchill in India.
british system is clearly better than the current indian system. I dont even want to know what kind of shthole india would be if it wasnt for the british occupation.

It hurts to hear, but as a german i kinda agree with what you say. The country and by extension the EU seem to have lost all sense of self or direction. It's actually sad and terrifying since all seems well on the surface, but i don't know how secure my future is anymore. I don't know what's on the horizon, but it feels like Europe is losing its status, wealth and identity, like there's a big storm on the horizon... Even just using the word "identity" feels like it could be offensive, as it implies being something, and the ideology of inoffensive individualism is intrinsically linked to being non-descript.
A society like that can't possibly survive.
A society cannot survive without religion. "Religion", is a human's direction, it's what gives life its meaning, it can be more accurately defined as a "path" for life.
China and Europe are places with very high rates of atheism, even though many atheists consider themselves christian in theory, but in practice they are not, which I still count as atheism.
Atheism is a big sign of collapse because when nothing bonds humans to life and together, what can they do? They have less children, thus the economy falls, and thus the whole country falls because the military and police cannot be paid.
America does not have that big of a problem because christianity has a stronger foothold there.
@@Novumvir Not really, most people going into the government are atheist. We also have a huge rise of fake christians in gen z. They say they are christian but act atheist and usually have no morales.
@@Novumvir Of course a Society can survive without what you call Religion. Atheism is not the absence of shared believes or moral frameworks. That's just religious propaganda. Atheism usually just means that you believe in a few dumb things less.
@@eran3161 This is the reality. It's not religion that holds society together, it's a moral social contract and the lack of inherent division among people, and sharing a religion is but one way of achieving that goal. It's the easiest, but also perhaps not the most healthy. ATM religion in the west, and the US, is doing more to divide rather than unite, so at the moment, it is doing more harm than good, but this is how religion is unhealthy. It works great while it's working great, but it will turn on itself at the first sign of struggle.
Religion needs to love and be accepting first, before people will accept it. Pointing fingers at those outside your religion and yelling 'you are to blame' is undermining the very purpose of religion.
@@eran3161 atheism is a religion, so is communism, capitalism etc.

@Joseph He might have provided sponsorship to populist parties in the EU, but it is a big misconception by the Westerners that Putin is any kind of populist, or even a right wing politician. Consensus among Russian public intellectuals seems to be that his regime is non-ideological and flexible, focusing on internal stability of said regime and trying in futility to keep the geopolitical status quo around them.
There is no ideology, no "national interests" because there is no such a thing as "Russian" in Constitution, no ambitions beyond flexing muscles.

14:04 Agree with many of the points about India. One point where I would interject is on hindu nationalism.
Hindu nationalism is indeed civilizational nationalism, not a religious one. If you read the writings of its founders, it becomes clear. The definition of "hindu" being used here is in line with what the term was used for historically and how the constitution uses it as well.
1. Before the british, and before the formalization of various religions as "-isms" in the flavor of Christianity and Islam, the term hindu was used to denote the pagans of India. No matter which gods you worshipped, which guru you followed, which sect you belonged to, you were a hindu. A negative definition - of those who were NOT christian or muslim. A positive definition was given with formalized "hindu-ism", of it being vedic dharma, including all the vedic schools of philosophies and sects. But even then, a lot of non-vedic and contradictory schools were also considered hindu, for example the 'lingayats', and even a ton of various indigenous gods and practices who had nothing to do with mainstream hinduism. That is again inline with what hindu means, bcz all the indigenous sects and distinct philosophies, all were at some point assimilated into the larger dharmic sphere by either the brahmins themselves or by the rulers of the time. For example, during the classical era, it is recorded that vedic priests used to go to these indigenous societies, and include their gods and goddesses into the larger hindu pantheon as some or the other form of avatar/variation. So that meme of 36 million or something gods, it is in reality this, that even a lot of households have ancestral family deities of their own, whom only they and their ancestors before them had worshipped. All of these different gods were eventually assimilated into the larger hindu whole, while their ways of life, practices, rituals etc. continued as is, making these various sects and schools part of the larger dharma.
2. And secondly, the constitution itself recognizes this, and states everyone to be hindu, unless specifically defined to be distinct. So for example, christians, muslims, zoarastrians, would be considered by their own religious denominations. For a long time, even jains, sikhs and buddhists were included under the term hindu. And even today, if you are an atheist in India, you are a hindu according to the constitution.
Savarkar, the founder of the Hindutva ideology and hindu nationalism, goes to the lengths of finding and defining what a 'hindu' is. Coming to the same conclusion - of the people of India who dont actively subscribe to the larger global pan-islam or the global christendom. And ofcourse, since all the differences amongst the people here, through philosophies, through rituals, culture, practices, etc.(none of which we can really destroy, as it is truly what defines us), doesn't much help with political unity, Savarkar recognized a need for a common identity, and a nationalism on the back of it, if Indians/hindus are to ever stand as a singular unit and fight against our civilizational enemy. Since hindus dont have the political/congregational unity of christianity and islam, it is through a civilizational nationalistic ideology that they must come together, despite differences. A common civilizational identity, representing the longest running continous human civilization, with unique unparalleled values of religious/cultural mutual respect based coexistence, and a diversity that naturally emerges from such mutual respect, manifesting in diverse forms of languages, art, architecture, literature, philosophies, religions, music, dances, traditions, etc. So a common identity of 'hindu', representing this hindu/indian civilization was created(which is again, inline with the historic and constitutional understanding of the term 'hindu').
In this paradigm, eventually even the muslims and christians who were loyal to India and the Indian civilization, and not to the global ummah, were included in this definition. Foreigners who would adopt indic civilization as their own were to be considered a part.
And while we cannot wash away these differences, some were considered to be obsolete and a hindrance to the indian society and civilization, as mentioned in Savarkar's "Seven shackles of hindu society". The caste system was one such source of differences, and Savarkar called for and worked for an end to social caste divisions. Hindu nationalism today is THE biggest anti-caste movement in India. Other anti-caste movements are usually hostile towards people's culture, religion, identities and traditions, they are aggressive and try to instill hatred amongst people for their gods, their practices, culture, people etc. And would also want to convert them into either christianity or islam or some kind of revolutionary marxist atheism on back of this resentment. People by and large, even from lower classes(who form the masses), are not looking for this and dont like this. They love their gods, their culture and ways. They simply want to be treated with dignity and equality and feel included. This is EXACTLY what hindu nationalism provides. Hindu nationalists are a fairly conservative people, who advocate for tradition, culture, religiosity etc. but also work against social divides based on caste and class lines. While Savarkar wanted to get everything done in his lifetime and went out of his way to arrange inter-dining, and mixing of people of different castes, for which he recd. massive backlash from some sections of the society as well, RSS/BJP's philosophy is more practical, and they say that real positive social change takes time and in this vain, RSS also arranges activities and events for intermixing of various groups, while giving representation and advocacy to the lower sections of society, uniting all of them under the common larger 'hindu' identity(rather than staying divided in their own caste/regional/ethnic identities) and making them feel included and a part of it. The BJP actively works in formulation and implementation of social inclusion schemes of all sorts, truly give representation to backward sections of society, and also works in formulation of economic schemes targeted at these sections, as without economic independence and power, no real change is possible.
This is precisely why hindu nationalists are doing incredible in the democratic processes of India(which are dominated by these same lower class masses), and will continue to dominate in the foreseeable future, despite the ill-informed perceptions and cluelessness around hindu nationalism in the rest of the world.
I think in future we will not need hindu nationalism because we will be strong/industrialized by then, there aren't many threats towards us nowadays
But yeah we still need hindu nationalism to protect ourselves and make us better as men
@@pax_indica political identity for hindus and political hinduism will always be needed, and since hindus dont congregate inherently, nationalism plays an important element in political hinduism.

@@funnyjokeman6175 Is that because the US is becoming a Latin American country through migration?
I think most of Whatifalthist's view of America is based on Albion's Seed, a book written in 1989, and therefore he doesn't consider that modern mass migration can't be assimilated in the same way that older more controlled waves were, because this sort of thing didn't happen in America until the mid 1990s. Plus modern political correctness actively suppresses all the old processes that caused cultural assimilation.

A right wing government will take power to stop immigration and reverse it and right wing governments generally also push for higher fertility among its desirable citizen groups. The problems will solve itself eventually.
Honestly I think currently that the EU is already at that spot of the immigration-crisis. But most people seem to prefer the established and moderate politics over the unstable ones. In belgium the current radical party that would push the anti-immigrant ideology has only seen succes on the flemish side. But all other parties, including their ideological brother, refuse any cooperation (since you cant work with them) and in flanders there also the idea of a free flanders which also support the same far right. Yet up until now the extreme hasnt been able to get into office simply because of majority rejection. And thats talking from a nation thats honestly messy.
I think europe will stick to a social-democratic society, possibly trying to further control capitalism with as their reasoning climate change. With the EU remaining the unifying force.

All europeans have multiparty governments, exept brittain and their legacy setup with lords and 2 chambers instead of just one. Many smaller nations like the nordic countries would gladly give up some autonomy, in Denmark none of the eurosceptic parties have gone into parlament, exept "dansk folkeparti" but that was because they were the only ones that were hardlining against non western immigrants in 2015. And they have begun loosing power again.
It would benefit trade, and militaryly, as the nordic countries can't trade internally, the ones with nationalism are bigger places like france,italy, greece(i think). Greece and italy is probably because resistance from the rest of the EU forcing responsable fiscal policy, when previous governments overspent or neglected taxation(Greece).
Places like the eastern european like poland and hungrary are countries that are also eurosceptic except the baltics. As they have strong memory of strong entity controlling their country, probably.

well he doens't see any prospect for the E.U., yet he never gives a reason why. his reasons for countries or regions or civilisations continuing on are also rather vague and boil down to ideology and authoritarianism. one weak spot, there are many more.

@Sam Wallace No, he didn't. He made a distinction between countries he deems liberal and countries he deems illiberal, while saying that the illiberal countries will simply decret themselves out of developments he deems threatening, whereas the liberal countries won't (unless they're religious), despite both of them facing problems, some of them quite similar. (And despite the illiberal countries being worse off today by a lot of metrics.) He places very much weight on cultural authoritarianism and its assumed effectiveness. And he can give as many facts as he wants, as soon as it comes to prognosis, he must pull some stuff out of his ass, and this is where his biases show (as laid out in this comment and my prior comment.)
Your India analysis with the insecurity part is spot on

Fair skin is loved every where, rich skin preferably has more relevance tho.

@Lovely Hitler Well I guess it was a good thing Britain came along and united them or else it would look very different today.
@Lovely Hitler most (not all) princely states were tributaries to the British. But yeah India was still fragmented at independence, then Sardar Patel united the country. But I think there was a longing from them for a united India as most princely states joined the republic diplomatically without any military force it was only Hyderabad that required military intervention.

I carefully watched this video with great interest. Taking on the topic of the future of global ideology in a brief video is certainly an ambitious task. Of necessity, you have used a rather broad brush here. The sprinkling of names, dates, published facts and data is helpful. However, your summations and interpretations of this information come across more as speculation and conjecture, rather than as a robust and well-founded analysis.
True experts and academics in the field would likely come to a host of different conclusions regarding many of the opinions you've offered. This video is concise and entertaining enough for the TH-cam audience. Yet, I find this presentation is best described as a bumper sticker version of "The Future of Ideology."
One of the serious drawbacks of online forums is that they too often become a community exchange of collective ignorance. We can have sound and well-researched professional journalism, or we can have the democratization of information where everyone is a presumed authority... but we can't have both.
Id be interested in seeing this exact topic being brought up and discussed by a panel of historians from the regions included in the video. Perhaps even some who are of the secular variety and some of their more religious counter parts to see what they feel are the trajectories. Whether it would be over the span of a year or multiple id love to see them hash out predictions.

Jesus's love does include love your neighbor enough to warn them of destructive behavior and try to save their soul. But never force it.
@M As a devout Christian, I would disagree. I understand Saad's point: The video's understanding of why Jesus was crucified and the centrality of his teaching is off. He was killed for speaking Heresy. Love thy neighbor is only the second greatest of his commandments. Though as the video states correctly, many in the West tend to piece together whatever they like about religion.

You are on point about the inferiority complex. But even though the genetic argument is indusputable the problem with the Aryan Invasion Theory is the word 'Invasion'. The theory AS STATED says that 'the light skinned Aryans "invaded" and civilized the "natives"'. Why should this be the case? They could be barbarians who invaded and then assimilated with the "natives", or there could be a mass migration and assimilation. The Germans and Britishers (who were the last to civilize after the ancients) then used this to justify their superiority based on skin color.

Excellent, as usual. In your discussions on European history and nationalism, there was one concept I was looking for but didn't see. I will have to paraphrase it, but the concept is that Europeans saw nationalism as the cause of WW2 and therefore it's bad. Americans saw nationalism as what allowed them to rally to win WW2 and therefore it's good. Obviously, there are many other factors, but that one seems fundamentally sound to me, being an American who has lived in Europe for a decade.
yes, its the most basic pattern: the winner gets to write history, I've even seen a recent trend in america were communism is now tolerated, not surprising considering most of the "social justice" (or "woke") ideologist lean towards communism, no one seems to care about the crimes against humanity committed by communism which by any scientific metric are worse than 1940s germany or any other ideology...
I've seen Jordan Peterson speak about this dynamic and he is worry that we are heading towards a "Wiemar republic situation".... but he is considered an "ultra right wing extremist"...
@@danyks4847 It was not communism that did those crimes. It was Stalin, it was Mao.
Under communism there is no state, no money and people are not divided into classes. Communism as you see doesn't lead to crimes, it is just an ideology. Also, both USSR and China were never communist and even they identified as socialist, not communist.
In fact there never was any country in history that was communist.
However Stalin and Mao commited crimes not in the name of communism, but in the name of themselves and what would be the best for them.
@@okxd660 based.
I somewhat disagree. To be called or labeled as a “nationalist” in America is seen as an insult in mainstream media. Usually used by the left as a softer version of “white-supremacist.” I think the west synthesizes their history (as we see in how we’re taught history 1500s and up) as one instead of recognizing it as being parallel and spectate but influential on one another. I think it’s evident that America feels guilt for a lot of things Europeans did during Crusades, colonialism, ww2 etc… same goes for Europe in a reciprocating fashion as well. I think European media feels a sense of guilt or shamefulness for many things America has done like wars in the Middle East, slavery+segregation, American Imperialism, and especially the expansion of the American global economy. America has disdain for Europe being its parent just as Europe has disdain for America being its child.

It is kinda true though.
And the world used to kneel to us.
I'm a generally left-leaning guy, who grew up in generally (sometimes extremely) left-leaning circles, and listening to u has been both vindicating and sobering, since I've noticed a lot of the left's troubling trends over my lifetime but seldom had anyone to talk to who'd listen or take it seriously w/out thinking me a bigot. It's also a relief to hear someone on the center-right acknowledge the issues with the right-wing backlash to the left's dissent into madness (even the more reasonable centrists, like JP's tribe, as well as the incels and actual nazis)
I just recently discovered this channel and am loving the content.
I'm European, and I want to share some thoughts w.r.t. the rising right-wing sentiments that are intensifying in many Western European countries at this time.
Naturally, there's a subset of the population who are explicitly racist (particularly older people), but it goes without saying that these parties could not achieve this level of support in the 21st century exclusively on account of racist sentiment.
In my estimation, the reason why there's such a powerful resurgence in anti-immigration sentiment is that an increasing number of people now believe that core Islamic and European values are fundamentally incompatible. I'm referring here especially to core European values such as freedom of speech, freedom of press, gender equality, sexual minority rights, belief in facts and the scientific method, and somewhat of a disdain for the macho culture that is particularly dominant throughout the Middle East.
For many decades, politicians who advocated for more immigration and taking in asylum-seekers in large numbers, did so in such a way that European populations got convinced that once an adult, 30-something refugee arrived in a European country, he would instantly realise how amazing European societies and cultures are, and would naturally proceed to reevaluate his entire belief system, and in so doing, adapt the European mind-set more or less overnight. Experience has proven otherwise: that it is, in fact, nearly impossible to change the fundamental values and beliefs of an adult. If you were forced to seek refuge in Saudi Arabia, you may be inclined to follow the law of that country, but you would probably never, truly, start believing in the justness of Sharia law.
Such is the European predicament, as I see it. North America has been spared many of these issues, since the Atlantic Ocean makes it much easier for the US and Canada to screen and choose which migrants they want to provide asylum for.
Thus, Europe's resurfacing right-wing sentiments are overwhelmingly due to ethnocentrism; that is, the belief that freedom of speech and democracy are inherently superior values to, for example, sharia law. I doubt many Europeans would be particularly averse to receiving immigrant labour from Hong Kong or Argentina, for example. Another contributing factor is the continent's aging population, since older people are generally more conservative, but the anti-immigration sentiments are definitely reflected across all age groups.
Edit: Correction of some grammatical errors.
The modern pseudo-left in both North America (USA, Mexico, Canada) and Europe, is racist. The pseudo-left embraces the idea that "Those who dwell in Islamic countries perceive their own nations, cultures, and religion as evil, for they are victims of their own societies. They will therefore experience a cultural conversion upon being imported into the west, and assimilate seamlessly." What this boils down to is cultural-supremacy, the idea that "Western Lifestyles" are themselves the default human condition, and that these lifestyles and values will (by force of osmosis I suppose?) simply supplant 'lesser' or 'oppressive' values in the rest of the world.
The march of history is towards liberty, we are told, but is it?
America's 20 year 'experiment' in Afghanistan and Iraq disproves this idea. Look at the polling of people's sentiments in Afghanistan. 90+ percent of people in Afghanistan support 'some form' of Sharia. Yet we in the west believe that these people are 'victims' of Sharia, rather than supporters of this totalitarian ideology. [Source: www.pewforum.org/2013/04/30/the-worlds-muslims-religion-politics-society-beliefs-about-sharia/]
This isn't confined to Afghanistan, sadly. Look at the ill-fated 'Arab Spring.' In Egypt, after deposing Mubarak, the population voted in the Muslim Brotherhood - a radical Islamist party that campaigned on implementing Sharia in Egypt. General Al Sisi stepped in and said "No," and installed himself as a military dictator. The story was the same in Libya and the rest of North Africa. The Arab Spring was deemed a failure here in the West. But was it a failure, or simply a reflection of the ideology of the populations?
cope:
Do you think that european values are objectively better than Muslim ones, do you think that Muslims are backward stone age barbarians? Because these are some of the things I'm understanding from your comment (not to the guy above me)
Nice to see a European who actually is looking at this phenomena with such an objective and factual lenses. Seriously, most Europeans I see either chug all the rising right wing populist sentiment to "muh racism!" but you actually hit it accurately. This is all due to rising ethnocentrism due to unfettered immigration and a perceived and sometimes real fear of cultural and societal undermining, not to mention security issues. It is not something unique to Europe. Even in Africa here, we tend to experience it. Heck! In Nigeria, we have been dealing with islamic extremism due to an influx of militants from Niger and Chad.
@@mikep8071 I mean, you can actually be victim and supporter of something at the same time.
What I love about your videos is how you constantly admit without any shame - and why should there be - what you are not sure of, what you are guessing, or what you know you do not know.
I think you've got a lot wrong about Europe to be perfectly honest.
In Europe, right wing politics tends to be a belief in the nation state, a rejection of the so-called European identity and a rejection of the extreme measures taken to "distance" from the nations that were. Things like taking refugees, importing immigrants, abandonment of cultural traditions. The European identity is sold as an absolvement of past sins (colonialism, fascism etc...). The right in Europe is a rejection of the idea that we must take in the third world because of our colonial past, drop our traditions, hold disdain for our nations because of our colonial past etc. It's not a rejection of Arabs.
Europe is looking to go two ways, several nations are moving toward a unified European state while countries like Britain, Greece, Poland, Hungary etc. Can be described as "Eurosceptic". There is a big push towards a European identity at the moment and it's intentional. We are talking a bank, a parliament, elections, a justice system. These already exist and there are talks for more powers, such as a military (the first uniformed agency of the EU, a border force, was announced only months ago).
After Britain leaving the EU we will have to see where the wind blows.

What you wrote doesnt seem quite accurate.
The extreme left rejects the European identity just as much as the extreme right does. So defining it by its nationalistic nature does not seem suitable.
"Tradition" also doesnt really count as an ideology.
Sure, there is a divide in Europe between pro-EU and anti-EU but it doesnt really seem to be a left vs right thing (it's more center vs extremes).

Hearing Altists doom prophecy for Europe is somewhat worrying since I live there, society needs to restructure itself to allow more kids to be born, but I'm not sure how it can do that without being terrible for women, perhaps technology will save the day once more.
@@EmTee-cx2ow "Family" orientated societies haven't been to good towards women.
@@kieronreid6757 So far, society has always been getting better. Its possible this is just growing pains, and society as a whole will get better afterwards. We're still dealing with post-modernism, post industrial, and etc. The earth is kinda collapsing as well.
@@EmTee-cx2ow As far as I can tell most societies that end up being pro natalist and try really hard to raise the birth-rate do it by screwing over women pretty badly like banning abortion or pressuring them into strictly housewife roles. The latter in particular has always been disturbing to me since it's basically indentured servitude even in it's milder forms.
@@MasterGhostf How is earth collapsing? Besides that I think you prove a good point. Society is improving as are conditions,
Support from India and I hope that peace and love prevail in the world!🙏🇮🇳

Spoken like a true Indian
3 minutes shitting on Europe and 30 seconds lumping Russian ideology in with Europe, followed by 10 minutes on American ideology. Very American perspective.
No shit most Americans know way more about America then they do about Europe
Fuck yeah it is 🇺🇸
Honestly, I follow this channel to see how stupid or uneducated this guy can be.
Example, this guy mapped the Balkans as being Islamic.
@@DerDop Dude you must not know much about the Balkans yourself hahaha, it is heavily Islamic
@@NewBisKu i live in the Balkans haha :) .
The Balkans has a population of 60 million.
From those 60 millions,only 14% are Muslims..
Thanks for your analysis. I would only add that Thailand is a bit of a special case, as its traditional culture is a blend of both Chinese and Indian influences. It was also one of the very few Asian countries never colonized by the West (Japan being the other one that comes to mind), meaning that its culture remains reasonably intact - none of the Abrahamic religions has ever held much sway in this Buddhist country. Of course it’s also true that Thailand is very much a part of the global, capitalist economic system, with all that this entails, including rampant consumerism. Anyway, thanks again.
