bump from me too

Me too

Bump it up

Not just that. Lots of problems from America he talks about in this show present in my country India too. So in reality, we aren't really different from each other except our cultures.

HEY-O XD

They did say that didn't they in the early noughties when we were teenagers. Now they do this its insane!

Oh how the turntables

I kind of miss the days when it was a given that pretty much everybody else in forums and chatrooms was a child molester. I never would have expected child molesters to be the lesser evil.

I k r, isn't that crazy?

Id be disowning my worthless family. Anyone who has anything to do with or believes anything from the GOP are removed from my life perm at this point. Including one of my family members as well.

@@RubbishFPS So you stan black poverty? you stan homelessness? you stan high tax for the working class? that why you're addicted to blue states and their policies?.... kekw. ''the worst enemy of the black man in america is the white liberal.''

What I did in my family chat every time someone shared something clearly fake was post an article debunking it and remind everyone (again!) not to share things over WhatsApp unless they could investigate it first. I think it took over a year of doing it, but after gaining the support of other adults in the chat we don't have to deal with this anymore.

@@RubbishFPS That’s fucking extreme…

@@RubbishFPS I agree with the above, that's a _little_ extreme. You should be there through them even through their most insane. I mean, obviously there's a line... but that line should be pretty far off.

Uhhh cmon now, Jon Oliver is also full of misinformed shit sometimes. We all are.

I don’t understand why Indians are so susceptible to this kind of stuff. Does google translation of websites not work for them? (I know you speak English)

wtf are u on it's just abstract skyline-like art. You're making connections where there aren't any

Same thing happened to me.. I don't talk to my uncle anymore..

Thanks for Whatsapp for making us realise that becoming old doesn't make you any wiser

Familly... group? In Whatsapp? Woah, this is wild for a person like me from Russia

@@davimurph *Welcome to India!*

As a Filipino, I am baffled that your Good Morning messages have made it all the way here. A lot of my elderly relatives send those quite frequently, at least to their groups. Some of the ones they send are modified to be more Christian, but almost every example in this video I have seen from my aunts and grandparents at least once. XD

I feel like it is the parents who did not warn their kids about this that are getting destroyed.

@@paxomatic sadly, no.

Agreed. My mother used to warn me about all online-related stuff. Now they believe in the most ridiculous stuff (be it related to Covid conspiracies, some "miracle supplement" or whatever bogus topic you can think of). Whenever I try to set things right (looking for credible sources, fact checking etc.) it's just being dismissed since it's "mass-media lying" or whatever. It's really depressing

Literally everything he’s said is misinformation. The vaccine has only proven to make covid worse and make your chances against covid or anything way worse.

@@Man11235 the covid vaccine gave me myocarditis. I'm pretty jaded with the results. It's so bad that there's no way in hell I'm getting the second dose. But you're still full of shit. That's not true at all.

Not true. A country that lets a "comedian" like this exist to ridicule establishments without repercussions isn't that bad. Especially compared to countries where state-sponsored media is the sole source of "news". I am not referring to any specific country in either of the 2 last statements.

That's amazing. Well done.

Proud of you and your mom!

That’s would take a lot of work on my end. Buts it’s on my list!

how did you do it?

@@littlesometin If ur seriously asking: I just told her some few basic thing to look for when reading something on any article. 1. Google who the article writer's name, is it just a random blogger or a professional.etc etc 2. Google any institution name cited in the article, is it real, or does it have anything to do with what is writen etc etc. 3. Look at if the site is reputable, someones personal blog, a real academic site, etc etc. These 3 dont seem like a big deal, but it gives someone a general understanding if an article is based of personal opinion or real research. I told my mom other things too, these are only some of them at the top of my head. Ps: u can also reverse search image of the writers profile picture if there are any, scammers tend to use stock image for their personal photo, using other peoples headshots.

yep It's universal should we be happy or sad😂😥

It’s a pandemic of its own 😰

or maybe we're all human after all, who could've guessed it?

Humanity has its perks, and it has its flaws. But in the end, we’re all human

@@hockeylvr42 yes let's learn from this so we can move on and finally evolve more. The internet has been this shiny new toy for decades now when will we learn to stay away from it sometimes

They are forcibly vaccinating Indigenous in Western Australia WTF?

2020s kids be like “parents trust everything the government tells you”

The most WILD thing about this is, if you are a 90's kid, then it's YOUR parents! the ones who told you not to trust everything on the internet, who are now falling for this nonsense. It's like "did you not tell me everyone on the internet is lying about who they are and are creepy pedos as well as everything on any website being lies??? How is it you managed to 'do as I say, not as I do' about fucking this???"

How the tables have turned? Tho it is kinda understandable. Old people really don't have any ideas about misinformation on the internet or more specifically how rumours can be spread with these message apps. Coupled with the fact that it comes from people who is a friend or family. Sometimes I tried to my parents about this. My mom is kinda unsure about all of this whereas my dad won't move an inch. He will keep believing in this shit. Since my dad talks with my mom more than I do, eventually mom believes in this shit too.

@@LifeisA_Dream You know, coming from the other side, i.e. being a scientist that work diligently to produce sound and reliable data, and then have people screaming at you that you are a liar and that your findings are false, this type of rant leaves me cold.

@@LifeisA_Dream Oh! Lookie lookie! It's some of that misinformation that we english speaking folks luckily have a plethora of sources to debunk...

i know right, im just so lost as to how that even happened though....

I believe "nonavian dinosaurs" is the preferred nomenclature, dude.

Ya know...

Also they warned us tirelessly to never use anything that might identify you because of scams, perverts and pedo, but now their generation are the ones getting their accounts hacked and using their full legal name as twitter usernames

Most Humans just have shit memory when it comes to this stuff. It's very annoying.

Can you explain in more detail what the impact was and how censorship would have helped the situation? As an outsider, I would like to understand how this is impacting your community so I can have some perspective that I wouldn’t be able to gain otherwise.

It was stupid on his part.

@@derekbrumbaugh6444 it's not really hard to imagine. He created a meme. People believed it. It was shared many times.

@@kcbh24 yes I can imagine what happened but how did it specifically affect the community? Is there a lesson that can be learned by the community?How will it be taught? Through communication. We can not resort to cutting people out of the communication loop due to mistakes. I’m not saying the problem isn’t real. I’m saying the solution needs to be measured in a way in order to solve the problem.

Believing a joke is true is the READER'S CHOICE. I would much rather laugh at funny material than have it censored.

Always hit them up with wechat university diploma and watch your whole family group disown you for months.

"Dont disrespect your elders by arguing. Seniority is always right"

We have that “respect the elders” thing in Hispanic culture as well. In this context, it’s definitely not a virtuous sentiment, sadly. They need to be educated on how much BS is on the web, at the very least. Just do it with love & respect.

We literally have the same thing in Indian culture. If I or my sister were to ever fact-check a link that some older family member or friend sent, we'd be seen as incredibly rude and disrespectful and would have to delete whatever messages we posted. It's aggravating, honestly

This hurts my heart

And as you this made me realize how stupid many of the people around me are to believe such absurdities.

He actually got in biiiiig trouble when he said that the children who dued in the Sandy Hook school shooting were all crisis actors. This led to a sustained harrassment campaign of the parents by Jones’ fans, which led him to be kicked off multiple platformed and caused the parents to sue him.

No joke, I play FB and Whatsapp police every time I can. The amount of of crap share via those channels is infuriating. Every single day there’s a new pyramid scheme being promoted to Spanish speaker in the US. Every single day there a new “breaking news” narrated by a random person and forwarded via Whatsapp. I’ve been saying this and I won’t stop: those famous “caravans” in the border, get their information from those massive Whatsapp messages. Somebody sends a voicenote saying “this is the moment, the administration will let people in” and that’s how that amount of people get together!

It’s actually funny because it gets rid of stupid people.

@@DrakeDealer It also gets rid of innocent people. People who weren’t apart of it but got hurt and affected anyway. It’s not really all the funny.

@@DMMM91 any idea who keeps posting these messages originally or is it individually popping up multiple times? Sometimes I wonder if certain misinformation campaigns are intentional.

There seems to be plants in these comment section. There is this Spanish one and then there is almost every nationality throughout. It’s almost like this is video is the misinformation and the people in the comment section are there to reiterate the dangerous talking points of censoring views that you don’t agree with. Calls to action and dangerous rhetoric that is directly causing harm is already illegal. You aren’t suggesting ways to save lives because that involves hearing people that are completely wrong and finding ways to convince them that they are wrong. You are suggesting outing them from the discourse and that only leads to darker and unpredictable outcomes.

I know I’m getting secondhand embarrassment though 😂 like- who told him?

Can u tell me the time stamp

@@Vishnu-xf7zw 14:07 is when he mentions MCU and 14:20 is when he yells “grow up”

That was freaking hilarious, such a lighthearted and funny moment 😂

I stopped watching superhero movies after the year Iron Man and The Dark Knight came out back to back. It felt like an achievement that could never be topped. Does this mean I've finally grown up?

@@RM_VFX Just the opposite

Y'all's entire community is doing this?

I would like this but you're currently on 69 likes, so...

arent we all forgetting that the united states of america is the one and only superspreader of misinformation worldwide?

Same in India , but it is called Whatsapp University

Your paragraph is just a euphemism for someone being ignorant.

Yup.

@@MattII33 Wrong.

Maybe he grown up a little, be did not became smarter yet. He still thinks that truth can be given only by american comedians, mass media and Big Pharma.

sbs and abc are important? LOL most of their videos get more dislikes than likes. Also, how do you know most people are under 30 typically early 20s at protests? Do you have access to statistical evidence to prove this? And since when did we stop educating children about health in school? Did that happen in a certain year? Because it's still taught today.

Curious about this statement....would think that from 1975 to now, all (US) rehomed Vietnamese would clearly understand US English and conduct most of life (perhaps minus food) as ball park American, using basic media info as the source of viewpoints (correct or incorrect content).

Wow I would move somewhere without service for my phone.

So true, my household is full of misinformations regarding mask and Covid-19

@@charlesperkins3669 I work with a couple Vietnamese ladies who came here in 75 and some of them really don’t speak much English still. And even the ladies I work with who do still prefer to watch their soaps in Vietnamese verses English. One of my ladies speaks English great but prefers important government paperwork or interviews to be in her native language so she can make sure she understands it wholly. In my city and state we have large Vietnamese communities and whenever we have important information going out you’ll usually see it posted in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese. Of course around here some folks grandparents didn’t speak English either and spoke Cajun French but where still Americans.

@@charlesperkins3669 some do, some don't. A lot of people came over when they were older and just settled into ethnic enclaves, so they can pretty much go about their day without english. The proportion of Vietnamese people who speak English is pretty low compared to other Asian groups

@@aubreymarie1575half of what he says is left wing propaganda

That's something Oliver could do, like he did a version of the piece about pyramid schemes in Spanish.

To be fair I'm not sure it would help - I've tried showing my mom John Oliver videos (she speaks english) but she just said she didn't like him, and ended up not watching him. Still subtitles are always nice!

@@Rime_in_Retrograde Yes, it's still a big challenge because people mix up someone being likeable with being credible.

As far as i know you could volunteer subtitles. Then you'll just have to wait if they would approve it

@@TheValyGaming if I have that good of a linguistic skill I would, I am literally writing line by line as best I could for my mom, so she could understand, if you know how hard it is to translate jokes for people from different culture and different language, if I just translate word for word all his jokes and punch point will make no sense.

Hope you gave them all the F they deserved then!

@@ProDem717 It’s not a matter of giving them Fs it’s a matter of teaching them valuable skills. It sounds like professor McNulty understand the culture he was teaching in and was a better teacher for that therefore he’s able to explain to his students how as a researcher do you need to cite your sources. He can’t just expect them to understand some thing that is foreign to them because of their culture. There are many valuable things we can learn from Confucian Culture. Just like we as Americans can teach people about good research practices and how to approach academics from a western culture.

I found the transition from high school to university very rough when it came to the level of scrutiny with sourcing protocols and style formatting. Not that I believed everything I read or wasn't scrupulous for my age and knowledge, but how rigorous it was was rough. I imagine that night be a universal experience for many first year students, but I had not at all considered the factors you bring up specifically in a Korean context. I think here in Canada we might suffer from the culture of politeness at all costs in a way that's unique to us. The Canadian politeness stereotype is more a deep aversion to confrontation and uncomfortable truths in my opinion, and I wonder if your Canadian academic peers would say that's a factor in our learning curve. Thanks for sharing.

@@marimarroquin1166 still, it's a bit funny when you say that Americans can teach others about research. On the other side, I'm in Germany, where QAnon has also its followers en Masse.

@@radschele1815 Fair. But not all of see Q as a valid source. I can safely say that they too do not know how to research. Some of Qs followers have never seen the inside of a classroom let alone the inside of a Uni lecture hall.

Reply to the people who send misinformation with your own. Tell him if they send you $1000. Eventually it will turn into a $10,000 return. And if they ask what it is you need it for remind them that they don’t fact check the stuff they send you before so why are they asking now. Why don’t they just believe you since they so easily believe all the other nonsense.

@@agayweirdo5404 Because the United States is influential around the world. They happen to be one of the major peace keeping forces, they also provide a lot of money too much in my opinion to countries like Ukraine. They also provide military technology or military assistance to other countries. People take notice of the 7 super powers United States, Russia, and China rank top 3; then Germany, United Kingdom, France, and Japan. Because these countries situations will have world wide effects.

@@agayweirdo5404 since US is a superpower nation, it's important to know who in charge. For example Trump trade war with China kinda beneficial for economy in the South East Asia region but Trump shutdown TPP as well. An unstable US might be good for other superpowers like China, Russia, not really for their allies or nations relies on the balance of world order.

Doesnt have to be that large a family though. Im from a medium to smaller sized German family and we get 15 in the group chat on my mums side if both sides are closer (and everyone has a phone) youd reach 30 easily especially if you put in more than core family (2nd 3rd 4th cousins) And then there are hobby and school groups in my old class group we are still 80 people.

That’s another thing. People think that the misinformation they read is real because of quote mining from real scientific sources, scientists and books. like they take a sentence from an entire page or speech, and misrepresent it, to fool people for their own gain usually.

You're not alone and I think it's one of the main points of frustration in younger generations dealing with older loved ones who fall for this. Like, you went to collage, heck you taught at collage, no that video isn't legitimate come on you're smarter than this!! I guess I want to understand it both to better address it, and also to see where I might end up in the case that I'm lucky enough to reach their age.

@@zeroelus If you want to better understand it, try doing the research from all aspects and not just one. Then you can at least try and counter a point they may be trying to make. If you only come at it from one view, you will not understand what it is they are seeing and hearing. This is why labeling things as misinformation is very dangerous. A differing opinion does not always make it wrong. If we silence all differing opinions, then we have failed.

Genuine question...do you think the answer is for these messaging apps to be censored? To me, it feels like a huge overreach of the government or private enterprise to step in and silence that auntie that spreads conspiracy theories. Maybe making a family decision to delete the group would be more appropriate...

That's the trick. This is a crack down on speech and don't fall for it.

Trump won with the way, people just read the headlines of Hillary Clinton and just assumed it was true.

Funny how it was Bolsonaro's rival who got charged with improper campaigning over social media... If it weren't for Lula pillaging the country, and Dilma destroying it, would have been an easy win for them... But yeah, sure, WhatsApp misinformation hahaha right....

Also it's important to point out that most phone companies gives free acess to Facebook and WhatsApp. So, you can acess and spread misinformation for free, while you have to pay for a conection in order to fact-check it.

In India too, the right wing tapped social media to rise to victory. It isn't a surprise that right wing politics is gaining popularity around the globe.

I can't believe the left is attacking private messaging now.... unbelievable... you kids just eat their globalist authoritarianism right up... yal are just lining up to hand over every right you have... this entire video is about not allowing you to speak to another person without you both being monitored and censored... I can't believe the left is attacking private messaging now.... unbelievable... and you kids think this shit is "progressive"... Its a simple concept.. The left are globalist elitist authoritarians who believe their should be a one world gov and currency.. their goal is to expand the welfare and gov states to every person on the planet.. Growth and expansion of government and distribution.. that's it on the left.. there is no ideology, no platform.. the only goal is oppose the opposition, the left brings no ideas or progress to the table.. The right are conservatives that believe in the power of the individual and ones ability to capitalize on opportunity in a free market.. Less government, less federalization, more power and funding to local and smaller governments that can form to the communities that make them up.... Left is federalism and then globalism.. Right is capitalism and individual liberty with focus on merit and charity.. Not affirmative action and tax.. This is why young liberals are dismissed.. yal have never read a page of Plato's the Republic... Why should anyone trying to maintain one listen to a liberal brainwashed kid... taught by other liberal brainwashed kids who have never done anything with their lives but come back to high school and feel good about themselves teaching kids with comparable intelligences to themselves... If this wasn't the case every one of your teachers wouldn't be a liberal whos never ran a business or paid someone elses health insurance...

As a Vietnamese, this is also the first time I hear about King Radio, and hopefully the last

@@liteasura6111 king radio is literally a cult. He successfully brainwashed my mom and aunt. My aunt didn't stop coming for me to preach, I had to block her.
