  2. HUMAN EMOTIONS LIKE greed, lust and office meetings... I liked that
    448
  3. AT 24 I BOUGHT MY FIRST HOUSE is was 2.5X my salary as a telesales person in 1994 YOUNG PEOPLE NEED MORE MONEY...!!! They are not greedy or lazy they just CAN NOT LIVE on what society is paying them. And you wonder why they dont have kids...?

  4.  @futuza  are you Elon Musk's special advisor for Twitter modifications...???
    99
  5. OK - Im genuinely not criticising here. I'm old [54] and this bit that worries me "I tried it once. Didn't end well" EDIT - read to the end of the comment for the point I used to do like 20 companies a day or get the Yellow Pages out and start cold calling on the telephone and Id call 50 companies a day. And you know what on an average day 50 out of 50 would say "NO" and I would do that for week after week until someone gave me a job. You have to learn to take regection [and I dont actually mean with Jobs] and keep going my man - cos you know what??? LIFE IS MORE DIFFICULT FOR YOU GUYS...!!! So its even more important that you get used to rejection and just keep going...!!!

  6. Thats cos Trump has galloping dementia and the only word he can remember is tariff. This is not a diagnosis but I bet this is way closer to the truth than any other explanation.
    49
  7. I WISH I COULD read a book in one sitting, I love reading but it takes me weeks...
    42
  8. this was my comment THERE IS MORE SAD TRUTH IN THIS than I care to recognise - when I was there age in the 80's life just got better every year, more money, better cars, pay rises, better jobs, buy a house.

  9.  @mollusckscramp4124  It really annoys me. As part of my "job" I monitor what Gen Z do online politically and entrepreneurially, they are 100 X more politically and commercially active than we EVER were. My generation's biggest challenge was getting to work on Monday morning cos we were still hung over, Boomers biggest challenge was what free university degree they should do and they should buy a house in the suburbs or have a custom one built. You might think Im exaggerating and I am a little, but my father was an engineer at a power station in the UK, when they got married they had a 3 bedroomed detached house built custom.

  10. Like when I bought a sports car "Its £250 for the colour-coded door mirrors" me "I dont want them colour coded, I want them black, I checked wiht the factory they black before you paint them, I want them black" them "OK - that £250 for special order door mirrors" Me "They are NOT special order - they are "do nothing" door mirrors" Them "Look Ill be honest with you - we dont have a way on the system to NOT charge you £250 for door mirrors, every one buys colour coded" Me "Door mirrors are a legal requirement - you are required by law to put them on a car. I am NOT paying the £250, so your choice is to supply a car without mirrors and I will sue you or overcharge me and I will sue you" them "Please - I just work here" In the end they charged me £250 for the door mirrors and gave me a £250 discount on the car - this was 2002 BEFORE things got bad.

  11. You know how celluloid film is highly explosive when it gets old and becomes chemically unstable - well Gen Alp video essays are like that when new.
    30
  12. As a Brit, I can say - rarely the British, the British are rarely the good guys. We had a good spot between 1939 and 45, but mostly its bad stuff.
    29
  13. I FEEL SO SORRY FOR YOUNG PEOPLE TODAY But not the ones who replied to me on the Man Carry Thing how parents think getting a job works - you guys fully deserve to be young at a time when civilisation is collapsing.
    28
  14.  @silverjohn6037  DUDE - thats like 50% of your economy there - these are now considered "critical workers". You have an average national IQ of 97.4 - what else are thirty going to do??? You cant fire everyone with a pointless job or your economy does not collapse - it STOPPS.
    26
  15. 0:12 - is that "STALKER" the Soviet sci fi movie...??? Also - does anyone know if there is a dubbed version, Im severely dyslexic so I cant watch movies with subtitles
    25
  16. I have a strict policy - I never watch 2 shorts in a row. If I click a short - I watch it, go back to long form content.
    23
  17. I keep checking and it's still accurate to this day.
    21
  18. THIS MAN HAS all the self-awareness missing from every other YouTuber - in some weird quantum accident, all the missing self-awareness of every other creator was dumped into this man. Thats a hell of a thing to have to carry...
    20
  19.  @ThereIsHopeInJesusC  Well its not really that - its mostly that politicians are almost all 60+ years old and get all nostalgic over paper letters. "OH he respects me, he wrote me a letter like i used to receive in the good old days. He is a WORTHY person, I shall work tirelessly to stop the children running over his lawn"
    20
  20.  @dchiu318  We also had Agincourt in 1415, that was a high point. And somehow we managed to turn a defeat by French Vikings in 1066 into a national win - despite the fact that it literally ingraines wealth inequality in the country that lasts to THIS DAY. If you are British with a French surname you are likely in the top 1% - no joke. Its the OG wealth inequality.
    19
  21. I wonder if anyone ever watches anything on the watch later playlist - mine is a kind of trash can for lost enthusiasm
    14
  22.  @ThereIsHopeInJesusC  Like if you want a politician to actually do something for you - write a physical paper letter and send it in the mail. Better still - type it on a mechanical typewriter.
    14
  23.  @joefer5360  HAHAHA - its even better than that - one of my jobs was selling toilet paper LOL This was to big factories and offices not to individual people on the toilet
    12
  24.  @billbill6094  Cos he was not saying it in the assertive, he was saying it in the passive "please God give me the strength to deal with these id!ots today" kinda way.
    12
  25. YEP - and we Europeans told you that doing |"literally nothing" was not going to change a thing. Many of us - me included - gave you specific action plans as to how to bring economic activity in a city to a stop for days on end to extract change... [etc] But we realised - you are 330 million individual people who will never personally s4cr3fice for the greater good. I got told SO MANY times, "Dude if I do that Ill. lose my job" If you are not prepared to lose a job to save democracy, you don't deserve democracy...!!!
    11
  26. IM BRITISH I moved to Bulgaria 15 years ago where strangers in the street will compliment you - it was like a dystopian horror movie to a British person... After 15 years I'm starting to accept it

  28. I can only watch 1 short form vertical video at a time if I want to have a good life - they over stimulate my brain and degrade my life I cant feel it at the time - but over the long term my life is worse if I watch lots of them
    11
  29. I just wanted to know when Celebrity MILF Chef was on
    10
  30. IM 54 WITH HEALTH PROBLEMS I would not swap it for being 20 today...!!! That is how **** up society is. Id rather be old and ill than young in this world.
    10
  31. Or the viruses
    10
  32.  @DroolRockworm  The channel is called "Man Carrying Thing" and its just become a daft trend in the comments to speculate what the thing is, thats all.
    10
  33.  @bluetextonwhitebg  That was not really my point. Did you read to the end of my comment...? It was about trying something once and it not working out so you give up and the fact that its even MORE important for you young people to really toughen up [not a pajorative] and get used to rejection cos life IS harder for you than it was for us. The default setting for life is FAILURE. You will fail 10 to 100 x more than you succeed, so you have just got to learn that people saying no and being horrible about it is just the norm. It ONLY matters how many people say yes. It was a general life point not a getting a job point.
    10
  34.  @elds2001  I do - I deeply worry about civilisation. I now live in Burgas Bulgaria where a working-class person has a family and 2 kids on 1 normal salary in their mid 20's The west is going to completely collapse in the next 30 years because we denied 3 generations of kids a life
    10
  35.  @darienford860  OK - I have to do this. Your guy Bernie Sanders has been preaching the same message for 45 years, I think there is ONE exception
    9
  36. Well posited [reads 47 previous comments to see if he is being original]
    8
  37. Im ADHD and autistic and like a total sucker - I've tried to be a nice person my whole life.
    8
  38. I dont think anyone is actually that dumb, they know he is terrible - they just hate Elon Musk even more. I think you are just feeling unjustifiably superior to them cos you can see a thing that can all see as well, but you chose to dunk on them.
    7
  39.  @Jessica18010  I watched one video only - that was enough. It was so obviously faked I was embarrassed for the people in the comments.
    7
  40. " capture a phantom sense of community in a world that once provided one naturally. " I now live in Bulgaria - they still have community and society here. The average family has 2 kids on 1 salary in their mid 20's, a person on minimum wage can afford rent on an apartment on their own. I know it feels like the whole world is collapsing - but mostly its just Am3ric4 and the UK, to a lesser degree the wery neoliberal Western world - but its defiantly NOT the whole world. There are 85 families in my apartment block - I know every one of them. Don't lose hope - but maybe move.
    7
  41. Very clever
    7
  42.  @ChaosSwissroIl  I replied agreeing with you - but it got deleted cos I suggested a DIFFERENT system and thats not allowed.
    7
  43.  @bluetextonwhitebg  Which bit of "its even MORE important for you young people to really toughen up [not a pajorative] and get used to rejection cos life IS harder for you than it was for us" did you not understand. "we've had to endure a hell of a lot more than you could ever imagine". I 100% guarantee I have endured more in my life than you will ever endure - just 3 years of my life were enough for a 100k word book...!!! ANd Im not a Boomer...!!!
    7
  44. The worlds maddest electoral system.

  45. After being homeless I lived in a completely empty apartment - at first it just rubbed in how bad things were; then I began to like it. Everything you own adds complexity to your life, everything you see needs processing, empty space is a true luxury.

  46. Its the linearity of time - it only goes in one direction

  47. IM AN AUTHOR on psychology - I have written many scripts for YouTubers - very distressingly I nearly always ended up coaching them through a near breakdown a few months later. The algorithm is essentially an abusive partner.

  48. AAAAAND its gone!

  49.  @yeoremuthare677  1) so what if you get made fun of??? 2) why would your coworkers make fun of someone trying to get a job? what kind of weirdos do you work with? If it were my company Id sack your co-workers and hire the guy who came in off the street with his CV to be honest.

  50. OR he could just swap it for a really tiny light weight thing and just carry it for ever

  51. THIS IS TRUE they actually make content UNINTERESTING cos it distracts people from the other things they are doing whilst Nflx is playing in the background I listened to a podcast with some Nflx employees - it was very depressing
    5
  52. Apparently they are nicest people on the internet - my conclusion is, humans suck bots are great
    5
  53. Listen to the P-Cast by "the dollop" Ep 600 & 601. Its Elons life story - he is 100 X more broken than you could ever imagine. He h4t35 humanity and wants to go to mars on his own.

  54. They have done what sorry? I got bored halfway along your sentence

  55. SO annoying

  56. MY NAME IS PICALLILI PIT AND I AM A RECOVERING ELON MUSC FAN I thought it was cool, I thought he was different, I thought the new messiah had come, I now realise I was an addict I was addicted to hope, that the world had a future for humans, that now ALL rich people are the worst humans on earth. But I was wrong and I am recovering. I have crushed all hope, and I now live in the real world with the rest of you, with depression.

  57. I F-KING HATE REACT VIDEOS they are parasites feeding off other people's hard work, I used to write scripts for some YT channels, its 1 hour of work per 1 minute of quality content.

  60. AS A EUROPEAN I am absolutely fascinated by how you guys are just sitting there watching a coup Livestream on your phones and you are doing NOTHING... All I can assume is 50+ CIA coups in other countries has desensitized the Am3ric4n brain to coups

  65. Probably in his barrel

  66.  @ryanp7546  I THINK it was either "Better Offline" episode 'Matt Stoller Explains Monopolies'- which is genuinely fascinating. OR "Trashfuture" probably the episode 'Who Fired and Rehired Roger Rabbit' which is about AI in the animation industry and how the CEO dont care it will will literally wipe out the industry, they will get rich in the short term

  67. THERE IS MORE SAD TRUTH IN THIS than I care to recognise - when I was there age in the 80's life just got better every year, more money, better cars, pay rises, better jobs, buy a house.

  68.  @poppers7317  Vaush did a 4 layer deep reaction video - it was like a f-king Inception of reaction videos
    3
  69. YES... Someone who knows...!!! So is Animal Farm - it was coopted to be anti-communist in the West, its not - its anti-authoritarianism I just finished The Road To Wigan Pier by Orwell, about life in the north of England in 1935 - much less read but very good.

  75.  @MDE_never_dies  I read the biography of Myra Hindley [sp?] years ago, a famous British unaliver of little ones. Listening to Elon's biography I had the same utterly shocked that a human could be that broken feeling. Its 3 hours in total - it took me a week to get through cos I had to keep taking breaks to process.

  76. I USED TO WATCH AN ECONOMICS CHANNEL every 2nd video he would almost break down in tears how movies were woke and crap now and how they dot make movies like Crocodile Dundee and Star Wars any longer. Then he had a breakdown and left YouTube.

  77. WOW - SO MAN DOES CARRY THING...

  80. Being a Boomer I can afford a funny comment, but I just lack the talent to come up with one, I coasted through life on the grounds I was born in the correct period of history. Maybe you should cut back on the puns and the lyrics so you can afford a joke...?!!!!

  83. IM 54 AND I AM TELLING THIS IS ESSENTIALLY TRUE he is not making this up, you guys are not making this up. Society has ***** you over and you are right to be mad. My sister got a degree in about 1994 paid for by the UK government and immediately got a good job in a lab, 10 years later she was working for the EU Commission and then the World Bank. She stopped when she had a kid and they lived on one salary cos that was still possible. BE ANGRY - but do something, maybe not Luigi level something, but get off here and form a political group.

  84. Yeah its just his thoughts each day, thats why its so disjointed and repetitive
    3
  85.  @conwaytwittyer2667  You are 100% correct. The only time that people actually tended to not make it past 35 was the Industrial Revolution 1800 - 1900 in the cities. There is an argument that the only reason we make ikt past 35 now in the modern world is modern medicine If you made it to 20 as a neolithic H/G you would likely make it to 70. I believe there is a native Am3ric4n burial site in Florida thats in a swamp - of the ~160 people there the average age is something like 75.

  86. Just had this near exact conversation

  87.  @nurgle-j5n  Cos the only ting that does not beat Elon Musk is being squashed in a submersible whilst paying $250k to see the Titanic, is a very low bar to clear.

  89. THE SWITCH IS PERMANENTLY BROKEN China is NOT going back to supplying the U5A...!!! Don't believe me - go read the English versions of Chinese newspapers ITS OVER - China now lives in a POST Am3ric4 world, they don't even accept $USD as payment for 78% of companies now - its a future of $8000 TV;s and smuggling of consumer electronics from Canada and Mexico.

  90.  @xCorvus7x  - Only - NO - if you read The Road To Wigan Pier, Orwell very specifically tells you what he thinks, there is no "interpretation" needed. He is a fierce socialist who hates authoritarianism of any kind. He felt the British and American socialist movements in the 1930's were not radical or strong enough.
    2
  91.  @xCorvus7x  You too. BTW - I recommend The Road To Wigan Pier - worth a read, the shocking bit is how we are facing exactly the same problems today and the things we think are new problems like processed food being unhealthy but poor people could not afford anything else, NOPE we knew that in 1935.

  96. AS A COMMUNIST the reason we are always late with the rent is NOT that we are broke or tight, its that we morally object to the concept of rent...!!! (honest, that's the reason)

  105. MESSAGE FROM A BUSINESS OWNER to all the people in the comments OF COURSE my receptionist is going to tell you to apply online - THAT is the first test you have to pass...!!! When you get past my receptionist fobbing you off, and you have got my name. and you have made an appointment - all of which are available if you are clever and persistent - THEN I will see you and if you are good I will definitely call you when we have a job, If you are REALLY good I will make a job for you. So maybe try a bit harder - I know it's tough today so get tougher...!

  114.  @ChaosSwissroIl  Dude - Im a communist - you are preaching to the converted...!!! But in the West [i dont live in the west any longer] lying, cheating and taking excessive risk - preferably with OTHER people's money, is very VERY highly rewarded...!!! My genuine advice to any young people in the West - GET OUT. Leave, make a life in a better country. The West is over, its down hill from here. You know only 5 countries use the credit score system. The rest of the world one missed payment 2 years ago does not stop you from getting an apartment or cost you 10% more on your car loan. Just an example of how oppressive it is in the G7

But UNDECIDED VOTERS...??? Their brains are in theory functioning and their own, and they CANT decide between a geriatric fascist and a nice lady who seems competent???

I JUST FINISHED "MILL ON THE FLOSS" the single best book I have ever read that I h-a-t-e-d from cover to cover Id sit down to read for 5 minutes and be there gripped 2 hours later, the writing is amazing, but I disliked every single main character in the book immensely LOL. You may love them and I recommend it.

  127. IM AN AUTHOR on psychology - I have written many scripts for YouTubers - very distressingly I nearly always ended up coaching them through a near breakdown a few months later. The algorithm is essentially an abusive partner. You deal with it LIKE you would an abusive partner,. Set your own limits and boundaries and accept that it may walk out on you. Its way better to have HAD a successful YouTube career for a while and your mental health than it is to try and save a youtube career and lose your mental health... Do what you want to do, what you can cope with and if thats not enough, thats just life - things don't last forever. Personally, I think YouTube should give 10 hours of mental health/fame coaching to every YouTuber that hits 100k subs.

AS A EUROPEAN this is exactly how everything in Am3ric4 looks to me - its truly hard to believe Am3ric4 is a REAL place and not a fairy tale made up by EU politicians to get us to go to the free universities, look after our health for free and pay our taxes on time so we can keep the "free" stuff coming.

  147. In a similar way - I don't get why so many Am3ric4ns are so obsessed with the invention of the sumbarine in 1776. whats the big deal guys??? I mean its cool yeah, but I'm not sure its worth building your entire national personality around [and individual in most cases]

  148.  @mollusckscramp4124  After WW2 the world was desperate to make it up to the kids and give them a better future, sadly those kids took it as their right to have everything and never let it go. The average age of the Appolo 11 team was 27, that generation is 81 now - Biden, Pelosi, McConnel, Trump - they were given the world when they were 25 and NEVER let go of it.

  150. IM 54 AND I AM TELLING THIS IS ESSENTIALLY TRUE he is not making this up, you guys are not making this up. Society has ***** you over and you are right to be mad. My sister got a degree in about 1994 paid for by the UK government and immediately got a good job in a lab, 10 years later she was working for the EU Commission and then the World Bank. She stopped when she had a kid and they lived on one salary cos that was still possible. BE ANGRY - but do something, maybe not Luigi level something, but get off here and form a political group.

  153.  @doncomputer5931  I was trying to be sarcastic, but I have flu so I probably failed. I agree with you. AI is aggregated from the internet - the worst of society is way more active on the internet than the best of society ergo AI is pretty vile. I was laughing yesterday at the right wingers losing it over the black founding fathers "AI IS WOKE:" - no AI is inaccurate, it makes mistakes and its the aggregated internet and the internet is not 90% white middle class Am3ric4. BUT the issue is - their outrager is now being scraped by the AI systems, meaning the AI is not more right wing nut job than it was a week ago.

  156.  @redpanda6497  Its all about getting the maximum amount of content and advertising in front of you. The problem is the desires of the shareholders and the desired of the users are almost always diametrically opposed.

  157.  @generic_commentator_n2488  If 50% of people in Am3ric4 get fired you don't see how that will affect the economy...??? TSMC got conned into building a chip fab in Arizona - they cant leave because you don't have the educated and / or skilled people in Am3ric4 for them to leave and go home. The situation is so bad that when the US Govt asked Mitsubishi to build shipyards [china has 200 X - not 200%, 200 TIMES the ship building capacity of the US] Mitsubishi said NO. You don't have the educated or skilled people to work there - the US govt offered to pay Mitsubishi to bring over Japanese workers and they said ABSOLUTELY NOT look at TSMC...!!! Elon [3v!l as he is] is correct - you run your country on H1B visas cos you stopped educating people in 1983 - it was a deliberate policy of the Reagan administration to keep people **** enough to vore Republican, and it worked but you no loner have a workforce capable of doing anything but pointless jobs. Your country is effectively a work placement operation for otherwise unemployable people - and this is the problem - Elojn and Co want to end that. They want you all unemployed cos the market for the 21st century is the 2 billion middle class OUTSIDE the US by 2030...!!! Sorry its a long post - this is my job. I write books on this stuff.

  159.  @e.d.1642  Am3ric4ns only do things when it personally and directly benefits them - partly its genetic, you re a setteler colony of immigrants who abandoned their neighbours to personally benefit from a better life, partly its the propaganda they have fed you for 80 years that the most important thing in the universe is you and your wellbeing. This is why every other even half developed country ion earth ahs secured paid vacation, maternity leave and universal healthcare for its population - and you guys have not. I mean that's the very basic stuff societies do at the beginning. Most civilisations did that somewhere between inventing the wheel and buying an iPhone. Not you guys.

I said only yesterday "If every Am3ric4n just knew about the first 2 weeks of the Nazi invasion of Poland, they would never elect Trump - and that's WHY they don't know about the about the first 2 weeks of the Nazi invasion of Poland" Am3ric4ns do not have the generational trauma nor the education to know what they are voting for.

  190.  @GutsOfRivia  I think you misunderstood my point - dont have the feelings in the first place. Other people's problems with the world are their problems, you don't need to have feelings about them. When someone is screaming and shouting thats their problem with the world, you can just let it wash over you and be totally unaffected [unless you are legitimately the one that caused the problem - then you should reflect upon it]

It combined your iPod and your phone. Everyone knew the world had changed and at the time no one really could foresee the natives. These digital ski goggles are the exact opposite - no one can see the use case except to advertise the fact you are a colossal w4nker. Give people 10 mins and they come up with "I suppose it will be good for engineers and architects".

But they are incompetent so you will survive.

  208.  @freakyskull516  You have to work out an answer to that that gets them to accept your CV or they pick up the phone to the boss. And when they accept your CV THEN you say "What day should I come back next week to get the responce?" to which they will say "Its OK we will contact you if we are interested" You say " Im not the sort of person to leave important things to chance like that, Ill come in person. Would Tuesday or Thursday be better" - they will pick one, "OK Ill come at 11am on Tuesday, can you please let, sorry what the person's name?" They will give you the name of the person they are giving it to. So now you have the name of the person RESPONSIBLE for hiring and a date and time for an appointment. So On Tuesday at 11 you arrive and say "Hello I have an appointment with MrEvil Capitalist about a potential job. Then you do this 200 times and hopefully you will have a great job at the end of it. "get told to apply online and shooed away". Thats the FIRST test you have to get through. Receptionists are literally told to say that and to mark the CV's of the ones who persist.

  209.  @robertjenkins6132  " You have to apply to an open position, a job posting on a website." God you guys are such lo5er5. Im normally very sympathetic to how incredibly hard it is for young people, and I am NOT a Boomer, but this thread is pathetic. Until I sold my company recently I WAS the guy hiring and if you had the gumption to get past my receptionist I would see you, and If you were worth it Id create a job for you. In 25 years of owning businesses, I never advertised a job once.

  210.  @CrizzyEyes  You didn't read the whole comment did you...??? This is another very shocking thing to me about the replies I have received that 70% shot back at me before even reading the full comment, cos they know best and context does not matter. QUOTE “You have to learn to take regection [and I dont actually mean with Jobs] and keep going my man - cos you know what??? LIFE IS MORE DIFFICULT FOR YOU GUYS...!!! So its even more important that you get used to rejection and just keep going…!!!” Now you have been polite so I will be polite in return. You should have been taught in school, and most definitely in university, to never assume anything. I was not giving job-seeking advice. The comment was not about JOBS it was about LIFE. An employee of mine was supposed to check the use by dates on some products, they checked the first few hundred and they were all identical so they ASSUMED they were all the same and we shipped them half way across the world and that cost me €45,000 in 2012, thats like $100k today

Before that I worked as an "Odd Job Man" which was surprisingly well paid and enjoyable, before that I owned a tropical fish shop which was surprisingly miserable - dont ever open a tropical fish shop is my advice...

It makes precisely ZERO sense [it was never intended to it was intended to protect privilege]. You DONT even get to vote for the president you are relying on some people to HOPEFULLY represent your vote when THEY vote for the president. Go on - tell me why your MAD system makes any sense and keep in mind, I live in a country where my vote counts for 1 ONE vote like everyone else and the person with the most votes wins and each party get the same % of the sets as they got votes.

It's 5 hours a day for 18 months to 3 years, and then your editor will take all that "passion" and throw 70% in the trash and you have to be fine with that. Passion gets you the first 50 pages of a book. Professionalism and single-minded determination gets you the other 250 pages. On the other hand, in 10 years or 20 years, that book will still be bringing in $100, $200, $500, $1000 a month. Its one of the few jobs that's a long-term investment.
