I think it is a very true point he makes during minute 36 (we are keeping up to not fall into the abyss). However it is a very Western/US / neoliberal-caused way of thinking. Originating from the thinking that society should be a business and everything should be about making money, targets, self-improvements (this idea comes from Paul Verhaeghe).
Living now in Spain and not anymore influenced by this. I don't feel this pressure anymore. However this can be of course a totally subjective perception, however I never hear and see it around me (although my perceiving is of course always biased).
