[@ElleB94]

As much as I bow down to Mr. Harari, as a "third culture kid", I'm not quite sure how to think about his argument that nationalism makes us care about strangers... I grew up moving to a new country every five years (From Germany to Indonesia, India etc.). Do I feel nationalistic about any country? No. Does that make me not care about strangers? No. In line with Harari's argument, my experience taught me that my own "tribe" / my family are the most important people (I guess even nationalists might think so). But beyond that I care about people of all nations equally - not just those of "my own country", so I would argue my lack of nationalism generally made me more empathetic. Alternatively perhaps the argument that nationalism helps us prioritize which people to care about based on proximity, is closer to the truth.

[@yoganandavalle]

maybe it's because you're high on the psychological trait agreeableness

[@MrAadeyemo]

When he talked about "caring for strangers", I understand he meant in the context of a nation, stranger to the individual but a subject of the nation.

[@arnaldo8681]

He said nationalism makes people care for strangers when compared with what we had before nationalism emerged. Of course, it doesnt mean that being nationalistic is the only way to care for strangers. I lived my entire life in brazil, but i feel the same way you do

[@TheDionysianFields]

A nation is a team, and hence a locus of pride. That's why nationalism works. Harari doesn't make a solid case for the viability of globalism.

[@themsuicjunkies]

The only viability he offered is the only one that is. That is that you can't have local/ national solutions to supranational, global and existencial problems. It just wont work. Cooperation and empathy its the only logical chooice. Thats basically why we are fuck, because its too hard and there are many reasons for it to be imposible. Maybe climate change when problems arise, it already be too late but i can imagine the world cooperating till its bitter end. But Technological disruption is gonna be just impossible to regulate, prevent abuse and complete monopolies, not to say anything about creating truly universal( global) safety networks for people that you wont ever meet and have nothing in common with you.

It is about time to stress the importance that nationalism and globalism need to cooperate to create a positive future. To divide globalism and nationalism will support the agendas of those who promote fear and hate.

[@patrickcorrea6295]

The Nation state is an artificial construct. Nation States were established almost entirely by violence. They force a single mold. Force people who are different, different languages, different cultures. All forced into having one common goal. To serve the Nation Rulers. Borders are shaped by war. Nationalism is not natural, because it has to be enforced. I urge you to look at the opposite perspective. Then make up your own mind.

[@kaigogolin515]

Patrick Correa you misinterpreted my post, I’m sorry for that🌻I’m nether a nationalist not somewhat totally on the opposite side. For me it seems the Extrems of both sides are out of touch! Who gets to say what is natural and what not? The world is exactly how it is in this moment! I can’t see that something is not ‘ natural’, though that doesn’t mean I have to like it or can’t change a situation for the better! But we have also to except that we have evolved into nations and have to deal with it.

[@dixonpinfold2582]

Prof. Harari is interesting enough that I keep listening to him even though I find his presentations cogent only about half the time, perhaps less often than that. This is one of the gratifying occasions, not because he has convinced me, but because I've believed all this, down nearly to the last detail, for many years already. Nationalism is like personal pride: it is not intrinsically good or bad; rather, there is an ideal healthy level. Too much and you are at war, too little and you collapse inward upon yourself.

The term culture is very abstract. I am an English speaker despite not being Englishmen or British by affections. Still, I can fell affections for the English language and feel connected to others who speak it

[@konrad303]

I'm surprised no one in the audience asked for a sensible definition of the term "nation". Harari mentioned the German history of formerly separate Prussia, Bavaria, Saxon etc. which already were at a much higher level than just tribes. They were already nations. German nationalists of the 19th century tried to establish a united Germany to make progress away from aristocracy towards democracy and parlamentarism. The new organisational body of power was meant to establish a new political order. The United States of America emerged by similar principles. Modern nations often are manifestations of political ideas. And still there almost always are smaller units of power which make up the nation, like a number of states or counties. The unit of a town, the Polis, is where the word "politics" stems from. This already is larger than a tribe. Harari somehow left out many intermediate levels and dimensions of human organization and territorial group identity. Why exactly focus on the level of the nation? And while nations, as mentioned, often are the product of political ideas, one could also take concepts like religion and science as elements of civilizatory progress. The national level actually could be totally left out, it is just a rather arbitrary backdrop. Civilization could work just as well, maybe even better, without nations at all, but just a territorial hierarchy of organization, without giving that much brand weight to the national one. How is the nation that essential? What is it that makes it special? Ironically, Harari mentioned being somehow culturally special as a nation's quality, but this is true for territorial units of any size and hierarchical degree. When praising the civilizational progress a larger body of cooperation provides, the more abstract and neutral way would be not to pick out nationalism because of the structure a nation provides, but to name socialism because of the structure a society provides. Or even communism because of the structure of communities, also transcending tribes since the dawn of civilization. Those isms went catastrophic just as nationalism in the 20th century. However, to aim for a less binary understanding of these concepts is just as important as it is with nationalism.

I appreciate his endeavor to (re-)verify the importance of Nation and to instill in this notion a spirit relevant today against its corruption. Yet he seems to have based his arguments on rather artificial images about both nationalism and tribalism.... About 'tribal chaos', in which 'no one cares about anyone other than his or her own intimate relatives and friends"...That's not true. Chimps pass infants back and forth among female members to take care of them collectively. Human tribal life as numerous anthropologists have reported, does show a care for "other" members that are neither friends or intimate relatives. Yes tribes split. But what is left in a single unit also doesn't only comprise friends and relatives either...We have evolved enough to know, a "fight and leave" norm should not be followed, even it was tens of thousand years ago!

I live in Brazil, where a so called nationalist conservative became president. One of the catchphrases, from his presidential running, was "Brazil above all, God above everything". He was elected as part of this nationalist wave which hit South America as it did in Europe. Now, in his first year on office, every week we know by the media about some act of nepotism or patrimonialism of this person. As an example, he used to give some office jobs to friends and friends's relatives, made use of a national aircraft for personal reasons and, lately, are trying to give a post as embassator to one of his sons. At this point, It would be very embarrassing someone insisting that he is a symbol of nationalism, haha.

[@mahyarmasoudi7192]

Brilliant presentation and very insightful. Just a question; it is referred to "some Americans hate their fellow citizens more than Chinese, etc." as a negative thing, but I am not sure if it really is a negative development - Is not it indicative of the fact that we are becoming more global? Maybe a fellow American has more in common with an Israeli, Chinese, German or Iranian than many other Americans; what is wrong with that? Maybe thinking about consequences of my own actions in one part of the world on other human beings living on the other side of the planet is in fact taking nation-state concept to the higher level, which is planet-state.

🙌 great shared thoughts, Mr. Harari, Thank You 🙏 The issue of nationalism I've witnessed, in my narrow experience in Oslo, Norway comes in the form of how they generate and allocate funding. For example: My husband tends to believe the Green party is pulling funding towards "annoying" initiatives and creating problems/hindrances for those outside of the major cities (he's probably thinking of his user of multiple babies daddies sis) in the form of tolls. If I were a more gracious person I wouldn't have uttered sentiments of "not everyone is comin to the future" as Madonna put it in one of her latest hit album songs. Yet I understand and share his frustration because it would also perturb me if unscreened folk were allowed to reap monetary benefits in my country and the culture they're from lacks similar basic values as hold oneself accountable for personal finances, resources, hygiene on a private and public level and desire to contribute to society/humanity to Progress rather than resort to backwards practices. Advances go along the line of health promotion/disease Prevention (lifestyle practices that extend on the societal policy and physical urban design level, to even how goods are produced, packaged and distributed on the lowest environmentally damaging level). Backwards practices meaning, determining likeability of others on race or citizenship when character and value one brings to the table should count as higher priorities. Don't they want their country to not be left behind? Cause being ~wealthy and having beauty can only last so long when far more intelligent and organized groups are in competition or have willing participants ready to work in harmony. They should nurture rather than hinder and distract their talent. Not place preference just cause someone's lineage dates back further here. It's late.... this is more of a venting than thought through post. Anyhow - so glad Yuval provided a more positive message of what should be promoted out there. Thank you again and I look forward to what ideas Yuval will share next 😊

From an early age that I understood that all political, social, and economic ideologies are not developing and not being a nihilist, I think that for now is yes a mixture of democracy and capitalism is what that fells more "natural" for us as social beings. Many things in modern democracies have root in social ideologies like nationalism and communism and even monarchy. Nevertheless the notion of nationalism as presented by Yuval Harari, make me think about many things specially the future and unfortunately or not I have the feeling that my nationality is only a piece of plastic that I have to carry in my wallet with a bad photo of my beautiful "visage"... maybe meaning that my nation is not that good in making "national marketing"? ...or that we are as social beings simply are becoming bigger than only being part of one nation with the globalization?

not caring about the ecology of your own nation is not coming from a new form of nationalism but from a very recent massive urbanization, when you live in the city you no longer care about forests or rivers because you no longer live there and no longer even think about it. city is the cradle of civilization but it comes at the price of loosing contact with nature that supports us ( philosopher michel serres said it decades ago)

[@majorhoulihan8448]

True. This makes humans lazy and comfortable. We do not really care about losing trees or animals because we do not value the greatness of them.

The 'strong'-'succeful' amongst us- the white men and their women, the coloured ppl in industrialized 1st world countries, esp. in the northwestern hemisphere, they tame nature with science, play god, think they understand nature and its rules, even tho great scientists have said otherwise.

The distinction between the two concepts only becomes meaningful if/when the moral concern for the nation comes into conflict with that for fellow human beings in the outgroup.

Information (including news) should have a visible hierarchy (based on importance, urgency, credibility). Unfortunately it is toooo hard.

[@steve1978ger]

But there is no such thing as the one objective hierarchy of information. You can not define a hierarchy without choice, and you can't make a choice without being driven by an agenda, knowingly or unknowingly. This is directly opposed to how the Internet works, and how it should work. AOL tried this 25 years ago, driven by no other agenda than to make a well selling product, and even that did not work, because they could not keep up with the redacting and categorizing, and people failed to see why they should be restricted to the AOL-approved fraction of the Internet, that typically had not caught up to the thing they were looking for. Citizens deserve unfiltered information, including the wrong. If someone makes a mistake in his personal filtering of information, that is a problem for them. If a mistake is made in filtering the information for everybody, it is a problem for everybody.
