Wade Davis: The Unraveling of America - 11/29/20

[@brucejohnson2201]

I am really surprised that this video has so few views. It's 100% worth your time.

[@Linda-zb6zq]

Share it and post to your newsreel etc. I have trouble choosing how many wonderful lectures and discussions to fit into my day. We are awash in sanity without succulent time to incorporate any share it. And I am retired. The question I am asking myself, how to crystallize these insights into better planning and programs.

[@HomeAtLast501]

He doesn't even know what he's talking about, unfortunately. You have very low standards.

At the grass roots level in the US, the 1970s was the decade of meditation and spiritual disciplines and emotional healing, and at a peak of consciousness. It was destroyed by the return to a 1920s timeline called Reaganomics that wiped out all the good that was done between 1945 1980, and has been declining in values ever since.

I am not anti immigrants but to make the comparison between immigration early in our countries history and now does not take into consideration that America once needed a lot of unskilled laborers. With automation and the computer, machines do this work. Currently there are plenty of displaced workers fill this shrinking need. That is why a large portion if immigration should be based on our needs. If there are failed states the United Nations should work towards a solution in that country not ours. Seeking refuge is different and the same in that environmental or political etc dangers should be addressed in that region if not in that country.

im not anti immigration BUT (DISREGAURD EVERYTHING BEFORE BUTS) BUT YOU ARE ANTI IMMIGRATION

This presentation is why I always *push for young people to study World history* - the REAL deal. Not what you got through the systematic indoctrination of "compulsory education" (term alone should give one pause) or passed down by elders who were stifled into apathy. Especially the advent of the Papal Bulls and their insidious introduction of 'wht' soup-remasee using religion (and the 'god' who would be the face of it, 'Jee-suz') from the 12th through 17th centuries. We must toss out at least 75% of what we were programmed to accept and re-learn everything, particularly critical thinking skills, because the education system was designed by industrialists and eugenicists [Ford, Rockefeller, Morgan, Margaret Meade etc] to merely create good worker bees, for the dawning industrial age of that time, not intellectually adept individuals. All of it was designed to impresses upon us a limited way of perceiving our environment; dichotomy and contradictions which discourage discernment. Leaving us with simplistic rules: up/down, left/right, 'blk'/'wht', good/bad, right/wrong and etc. as opposed to developing a pliable, plastic neurology capable of creating new pathways effortlessly and adapt instead of the defense mechanics of Ego. The re-learning of history is imperative. The roots and essence of what is unfolding here goes back centuries, nefariously incorporated into law to control people, by the merchant classes who became the ee-leet under the jurisdiction of the 'church' (every president of all countries must go to Rome and kiss the Pope's ring - have you ever considered why that is?). The sociopathic protocols exist in every place they have descended upon, and appropriated everything from economic resources to culture, and even the Spirits of some who they use to support and implement their BS. Democrat? Republican? They are two wings of the same malicious bird that sold out to international corporate concerns over *YOURS!* Shall we dig in and do this together or would you rather stay in your fairy tale comfort zone, deluded? Continuing to believe that you are better than someone else because you lack melanin in your skin, you are cis-gender or have more decimal points on your paycheck. The Momas of Columbia call Western 'civilization' "Little Brother". It is an appropriate moniker given its past, present and continuing moral and Spiritual immaturity. It is time for people to awaken from the Wes-turn cologn-nee-al Dreaming and grow up. "In order to understand the complexities of today's society you need to KNOW the past. Let us not DWELL in the past; but take the learnings from the past to make us better citizens of today." --Maori Tribal Historian Brad Totorewa ____________________________________________________________

BTW - Mr. Davis - you forgot that 'blk' soldiers were sold an empty promise when they served in EVERY war - including WWII. They returned to the US to face even more hostility as they sported their uniforms and engendered the wrath of psychopathic 'wht' citizens who took umbrage to it. They were shut out of Veteran's housing loans, jobs and those good schools for their children. So it was a golden era for some. I am not sure which reciprocity you are referring to because the very CONstitution writes melanated Aboriginal and/or African descended people OUT of full citizenship. That is the Truth. Anyone can go check it out for themselves at the Library of Congress WEBsite which has every Constitutional Amendment, Act and executive order in chronological order. One can see the systematic discrimination into the age of incarceration unfold and written into *LAW.* _______________________________________________

too bad he's a "plandemic believer" ☹️ apart from that it's a pleasure to watch

[@jnagarya519]

It's too bad you reject not only science but of reality itself. The pandemic is not about "belief"; it is about FACTS.

[@HomeAtLast501]

He's just stringing together a bunch of factoids, cliches, and other peoples' insights into a banal narrative that most of us have already heard and know on our own. And that pseudo-intellectual, affected formalized speech is annoying and disingenuous.

[@chefdougy]

education will do that to you

[@HomeAtLast501]

You can tell he's very affected because he's over-articulating his "t's", making him sound awkwardly pseudo-intellectual, as you hear with many conductors and classical musicians.

[@BushyHairedStranger]

Ever since first reading The Serpent & the Rainbow upon its release in 1985 while I was in middle school, Wade Davis has been a Hero for me. In fact many Canadians inspired my youth, names like Dr. John Green (Sasquatch researcher)

[@carolbailey1325]

Howard Zinn's book, The Peoples' History of the United States provides perspective. It was never intended that the masses or ordinary people would rule.

[@kathy259]

It looks like the cactus in the background could use a bigger pot. Sorry, but I just can't help it, I like plants. Besides from that, thanks for a very good informative video.

[@jnagarya519]

The Fairness Doctrine was NOT an offense to the First Amendment. It was, rather, the establishing of the BALANCING of interests that is democracy based upon the rule of law. The win at all costs, by any means necessary, against the rule of law itself, is the enemy of truth -- and of the First Amendment.

[@lexneuron]

More people incarcerated than those with college degrees? Only 4.6% of world population accounts for 25% of world's people incarcerated? (That is about the same pattern with Covid-19 thing: 4.6% of world population, but 20 plus% of world's covid-19 deaths and infections.) It is mind-boggling!

[@chefdougy]

AMERICA ONLY NOT WORLD... REWORK YOUR MATH

[@teresagoodkind1280]

Thank you for this valuable knowledge and wisdom. Sad that people in America are closing their eyes and choosing ignorance.

[@Linda-zb6zq]

The ignorance reference may just mean u r a bot.

[@martykimble9999]

Why we mix facts out of context and time to a conclusion of your liking.

[@HomeAtLast501]

The guy is revealing --- stunningly --- that he doesn't understand a damn thing about American politics, and about Trump. Nor about global politics, for that matter, because the dynamics driving American politics and the appeal of Trump are the same dynamics we see in Europe. Yet, despite his ignorance, a Botanist is being sought out as some kind of expert. Wow.

[@HomeAtLast501]

Wade, Trump won 28% of the Hispanic vote in 2016, and 32% in 2020.

[@HomeAtLast501]

Oh, let me pause the video and jot that down: change is the only constant. Good.

[@HomeAtLast501]

Does he REALLY think he's educating Americans on their own 20th-century industrial history?

[@chefdougy]

YES
