PragerU for Kids: The Worst Propaganda 

Seriously. There’s no “but” after that. Because there is no justification for slavery. It’s just WRONG, and if someone disagrees with that.. I don’t know how I’m supposed to explain to someone that slavery is wrong if they can’t figure it out themselves based on the evidence.

@@LeBatteur I'm sure you could reason it out with some effort and imagined hypotheticals. The first thing that comes to mind is "What about work animals?" but that's kind of weak. Something something utility... something something stupidly extreme bad outcome for not doing it. You get the idea.

It is "I am not a racist, but..." with different words. No good sentence will come from it.

There are a lot of lovers of authority. In order to get rid of slavery, abolitionists also removed the idea of government deriving its just powers from the consent of the governed. If nothing else, the fact that several states endeavored to remove themselves from the Union indicates that they did not consent. Forcing them to stay was, itself, an authoritarian act. And it doesn't matter how you vilify the southern states. It doesn't matter how awful you imagine them to be or even how closely that reflects reality. This is government saying "you will be ruled and you have no real say." Now, no one in a position of prominence publicly makes such an observation. All the people who have come to prominence in recent times want to wield that power and will only object to their opponents having it.

I’m sure Liberty Kids has a shit ton of problems, but there were a lot of things that really stuck with me and made me think.

I think there's several subjects we can't sugarcoat when teaching to students. They're often horrifying or confusing to learn about, but completely important. These are the ones that really changed me, from memory, in my schooling (keep in mind I'm 24 years old and have gone to private Catholic schools until college): -Black slavery in America (grade school) -The Holocaust (grade school) -The Trail of Tears (grade school) -False incarceration and the death penalty (high school) (surprisingly, we learned more about being pro-life with the death penalty than we did about abortion) (I'm now pro-choice but anti-death penalty) -9/11 (grade school) -Christopher Columbus (high school) -Bloody Sunday & the Civil Rights Movement (grade school and high school) -General racism topics, including authors Frederick Douglass and Maya Angelou. "Each Little Bird that Sings" changed my life and made me cry and feel so sick but I am so, so grateful for the understanding of the horrors of the underprivileged and I wish every white student had the chance to read it (high school)

Not arguing for what far right types do. But in many cases during the pandemic "the science" was the information given by politicians and during the time between 2016-2021 much of America (at least from my perspective) growing very strong distrust in politicians. I think this distrust was somehow reinforced by the silencing of people displaying different, often wrong views.

Seriously. I know the real Frederick Douglas would've completely shattered PragerU's dogma, but also imagine if their time machine brought them to... like, an actual slave, who was still a slave. Like, ignoring the horrendous caricature of Frederick Douglas, what would a working slave say to them about BLM protests? Probably something about how horrible it is that African Americans still aren't treated equally. It would completely fuck PragerU's narrative, which is obviously why they picked a "civilized" freed slave to puppet instead.

Also, I agree they act like they’re pleasing the lord when they bully some random transgender kid to the point where the kid kills themself like I don’t think Jesus Christ ever said that that is OK

Knowing the rules and how to break them in order to make new discoveries, it's experimenting.

Right that baffled me. It’s so easy to do and so trivial to source the ingredients, that either he got an ingredient wrong or was given incorrect instructions? And WTF about just trying something else and it working better? The writer clearly had zero scientific literacy, or perhaps a negative value (surprise surprise), and thought of the only “science experiment” they could think of…

yeah how do you fuck up a simple volcano

@@kaitlyn__L exactly right. A lot of anti-intellectuals stopped paying attention in high school or even earlier, and just extrapolate from what they saw there to the rest of academia. They don't realize what should be obvious--that elementary schoolers (and even most undergrads) don't have sufficient background in the fundamentals to be doing actual investigative science. A good elementary teacher will stage manage an experiment where kids will "discover" some commonly known principles, like f=ma. (But by undergrad, or ideally high school, students should already get this and be able to absorb the bulk of the fundamental material by fiat rather than time-consuming and expensive experiment. Seeing the proof firsthand is great, but what counts as "fundamentals" is so wide that there's only time to focus on (1) the most important proofs and (2) (for undergrads) the proofs that are specific to ones chosen field. Baking soda volcanoes don't teach the scientific method; they are just a clumsy attempt to get kids enthused about experimentation for its own sake. This misunderstanding of academia certainly extends to humanities, but I'm comfortable saying that I don't have enough expertise there to say exactly how.

@@TomBertalan yep. A lot of anti-humanities hate by anti-intellectuals basically relies on that same misunderstanding of “experimentation”, they think if there’s no chemicals to mix or no ball to roll down a hill, what even could humanities students possibly do? They don’t know enough about observational studies and statistical analysis to understand that 80-90% of methodology is actually shared - attempting to eliminate other factors and measurement errors, trying to ensure you get actually-representative samples, demonstrating what you’re measuring actually relates to your stated hypothesis, etc. They also wrongly think a single paper usually proves or disproves anything, rather than most things taking sometimes hundreds of studies or even thousands to properly eliminate measurement noise.

That's because hardcore conservatives see their ideas as virtue just from the fact that they're theirs. Going against their ideas is going against virtue. So if you don't agree with their batshit views, you're automatically against everything good in this world.

@@mrreaper8826 While there's people who want to brainwash kids across all political sides, that's a false equivalency. Showing LGTB positive content in children media is just one of the many old timey messages about equality and tolerance. "Boys and girls are just as smart", "Whites and blacks should be friends" has been joined by "Being homosexual or heterosexual are both ok". Is it political? Well, it's more about morals. But if you consider that politics also deal in morals, yeah, it's political too. But by that definition, "Stealing is bad" is a political statement. By "political", people really mean: "controversial issues that are not supported by 99% of the people".

@@jmiquelmbIn respect to censorship both conservatives and liberals are guilty. The conservatives of today are only the liberals from 10 years ago. Neither of them are for reform. The liberals have disguised themselves as the libertarians hence the name. They don't actually belive in freedom, and neither do the conservatives. The only true difference between them is this. The true goal of the liberals/progressives is change no matter the situation, they obsess over the new and trendy and thus `fix' things which need no alteration. The conservatives goals are to maintain the county, and I mean it's in the name. Neither think beyond the next election and neither care for liberty. In 10 years from now the liberals of today will be the conservatives of the future.

It's only politics if you disagree with it. If you agree with something then it's just common sense, and can't be political.

@@mrreaper8826 That's pretty inaccurate in many ways. No way that most liberals from 2012 would want to make same sex marriage illegal. Besides, you're not mentioning what are their agendas, which misses the point of whether those agendas are similar or not. It's like saying the South and the North stood for the same, which was to win the Civil War. Besides, denouncing censorship is a pretty lazy argument. Everybody defends censorship to a point. Making child p*rn illegal is a form of censorship. Making terrorist recruiting programs illegal is a form of censorship. People just pretend that censorship means: making illegal something that I like. But it also means: making illegal stuff that I find disgusting. You support some forms of censorship, I'm sure. The cultural war resides in what should be censored. And the liberal view in that regard seems far more sensible. Compared to banning gay marriage or freedom of religion is far more invasive and unreasonable than censoring nazis.

The distinction not addressed in this joke is that in protest against the tea tax, the trade ships themselves were not damaged. That was no accident. What was specifically targeted was the tea, and throwing it overboard. Whereas in modern day, protestors or rather rioters calling themselves the former are rallied by grifters in the media. Destruction and the anxiety and frustration that stems from that in both foreign and domestic affairs is always legacy media’s business to promote. Rioters weren’t even going to city halls in the local areas to go after politicians. They were going after innocent people. It took community members banding together as a form of voluntary security to see mobs avoid business districts. Cops proved rather useless in following orders to not provide security to residents either, except for politicians who pay them to be bodyguards. Seeing this comment just shows the lack of awareness today’s lefties have about mindlessly defending authoritarians in power. The fact that taxes are much higher now, and meanwhile modern self-proclaimed protestors target the wrong crowd, and are cheered in doing so, is tremendously dimwitted.

Conservative grifters in a nutshell.

I’ve always seemed to notice that, in situations like this, the first one to send an accusation out is usually the one that people listen to, which is sadly why this works For example, I’ve seen some parts of the right always rant about how “The left always play the victim card and they’re gonna use it to take away our rights!” and then 5 minutes later goes on a rant about something like how they’re silenced so much and how much they need to “Fight” (Probably meaning to censor) the other side, but nobody cares about what anyone else says, because they sent the accusation first To be fair, most of the responses usually just boil down to “But you do the same thing!” without any proof, instead of proving why they’re wrong and they’re more guilty of it, but still, most people wouldn’t listen even when a constructive counter-argument finally comes up

I think it's because conservatives don't see their beliefs as their beliefs but rather as the facts

Are you even really forced to study gender studies and stuff? I'm in South Africa studying Engineering so I'm missing all that. Just wondering.

As a literature student I laughed out loud

@@graeme8866 in my university you aren’t. You usually only have to take gender studies if it’s your concentration. You can optionally take courses in gender studies as electives, but required is a gross exaggeration

@@caromela2031 Yeah that's what I guessed... Then how disconnected is the group watching and swallowing everything rightist media from reality.

@@caromela2031 it was the same for me when i went to school for political science. Classes on race and gender were offered and honestly some were really interesting, but you could just focus on theory or foreign policy or economics or etc. instead. The idea that colleges are forcing all students to take gender studies classes to turn them gay or whatever PragerU thinks will happen is honestly just really silly and kind of pathetic to anyone who’s actually set foot in a university.

Excuse me?

​@@aceofpizza9932the founding fathers were mixed. Some were in fact christians while a lot of them, including Benjamin Franklin, were deist. Deism is a dead movement now but was extremely chich in the 18th and 19th century. It follows more along the line of "god exists but christianity is wrong about everything and we shouldnt read the bible because its superstiotius" its beliefs like that that led to the cult of reason in france: a non-religious religion

Hey, this is a cool comment and all, but I've got just one small question on it I'd like cleared up: _What the FUCK are you going on about?_ This is possibly the worst comment I've ever seen. There are so many things wrong with it, I don't know where to start. It's so bafflingly bad I feel the need to write this over a year later.

Exactly! More or less, they were deists.

to the comment above mine, if thats all u got from the video then really dont know what to say. joel went into why frederick douglas did not advocate for "working within the system" and how he was sympathetic to radical revolution, and how without violent and/or radical resistance NOTHING would have changed. he was literally enslaved by people who would kill him without a second thought, like are you for real going to sit there and say violently resisting oppression or abuse is not okay? when you and your kin are enslaved, face years and years of bondage and murder and abuse and unknowable depths of trauma of your people, lets see then how you feel about violent resistance. its only violent because the people oppressing them FORCED that to be the only way to respond in order to be free. framing that resistance as the real evil is backwards victim blaming bullshit. in any case if ur gonna condemn "violent protests" then condemn the conditions that created them as well. violence for liberation is never equitable to violence to oppress.

@Jamal Ramadan That can be an additional definition.

I hate Frederick Douglas, but that's solely because he decided to place his house on top of a fucking mountain and walking up all those stairs was miserable. The house was really nice, though. I liked the early indoor plumbing. That was pretty cool. In the end, I don't give a shit if your resumé includes abolitionist activism, bravery, being really smart, and the astoundingly impressive feat of criticizing the US government and getting away with it while being black; not all of us are Olympic gold medalists. EDIT: seems to be some confusion. Outside of the stairs being hell (look it up), especially in the intense Summer heat, everything was jest.

"Shakespeare didn't study Shakespeare, he went on to become Shakespeare." Is a joke that springs to mind about that.

@@Prince__Teclis Yeah, I feel writing should be considered more of an artform, instead of having rigid lines it should be more creative. Learning about Shakespeare is great, but he isn't so important to writing that he needs to be brought up over and over and over and over. Like this joke you've just said, Shakespeare isn't required to become a great writer or author, you can do it without him. You could be inspired by him, but truth is his works are a bit dated to be too inspiring for the modern day, at least to me they are.

@@KittyPieVibes what other message could there be 😂

While I do find violent protest to be bad, the idea that we should always follow the law is completely wrong. If murder was legal that wouldn't make it just or good. An authoritarian government could also make peaceful protest illegal like the Nazis or the Soviet Union actually did, in that case, you would be forced to rebel against your country. This video seems to be forgetting that the United States exists because we broke the law, didn't pay our taxes, and then rebelled against Britain.

It's more like telling a simple-minded person not to walk into traffic because it's not going to be a good outcome for him. Yet, despite your best efforts, the dummy arrives at the conclusion that he should walk into traffic anyway. Then he yells, "You can't tell me what to do! I'm progressing!" before the inevitable happens. You can only sigh and slap your forehead because you really had high hopes for him, but he obviously didn't possess the mental faculties required to arrive at a big brained conclusion.

God this reminds me of how in court my father says that my mom is alienating me by telling me things he's actually done and me reciting stuff I remember him doing, but I've also heard him call my Step dad a goat fucker and my mom a whore.
