[Discussion] The Value of Humanity.

[Youth and Full power]

This is just a video uploaded by one of the favorites among my subs. He talks about the Value of Humanity.

I see alot of people talk about how humanity has no hope and how it's getting worse and can't change, so when he uploaded this video I was pretty glad. It's a really good video and if you have the time I suggest you watch the whole thing.

I don't feel like watching a 27 minute video, sorry.

But I really hear what you're saying. It pisses me off when people say "We as a society/human race are" or "The human race is" like they speak for all of us. They take some negative stuff they see and label the whole planet with it. If they truly think the world has all these problems, they need to work on their own issues/problems first before labeling the entire world as "messed up" or "wrong".

Like the quote - "First become the change you want to see in the world."

It really depends upon the perspective.

From the perspective of: "I think people should be nice and do better things for each other" - there is a lot of truth to the statement: "become the change you want to see."

However, from my perspective, I see at least 30% of those assumed to be human who do not understand the difference between a trash can and the floor. 60% think balancing a check book (or income versus expenses) is a complicated task requiring professional assistance. Roughly that same percentage treat computers and other electronic devices like magic boxes and do not understand that there is a cause-effect relationship between them and the device.

So, as far as I'm concerned, people are entertaining primates that I'm inspired to distinguish my genetic lineage from (my children and their children and so-forth should become a separate species whose mentally disabled rival your all's geniuses).

And it's not without attempts on my part to better the world... and I will continue to attempt to better the world. But the reality is that a considerable number of people on the planet today are just flat-out dysfunctional and there's not a damned thing we can do about it but become genocidal criminals or hope they manage to purge themselves from the gene pool.
