Abhinav, you are setting the bar high with each episode. One of the best discussion and the reality of "Liberalism" where you have to hide your identity itself to speak freely is shocking!
Brilliant, brilliant discussion. Alexei is one of the most interesting thinkers around. He has more clarity than all our ‘leftist’ intellectuals put together.
This is an extremel important discussion. There must be deper rumination on the debate here. AP as usual is doing seminal work here. What a pity that he is not recognised for the critical debates that he is promoting.
If you want more discussions like this I highly recommend Morgoth's Review - an English RU-vid channel. One of my favourites is his video 'Why Conservatism Fails.'
I am not live but would have asked question “why rich people like George Sores, Jeff bezels support woke culture ?” He gave the answer without me asking upfront
Right kind of capitalism is Social Market Economy as practised in Germany & majority of european countries. American capitalism is the canabalistic form of capitalism. 🙏
Exactly. But America is third most populous country after china and India. What works in Norway can be a disaster in USA. I can say the same for India. India is densely populated.
He has made several good points, though debatable. I have worked in NGO sector & know that most NGO's are supported by TaTa family trusts. ORF think tank, financed by Reliance, employees woke Sudheendra Kulkarni. What exactly is happening in India? Are they copying American Corporations? Actually in India most of the left activism is supported by India INC.
His perspective is very unique and deep . However successful east asian model is built around ably governed government with export oriented companies focusing on US market. Except IT services we have not been able to replicate that . So it would be great if Alexei can delve a little deep on how we can shift the Indian masses from low productivity Agriculture to Industry/Service at scale.
Indian IT/BPO is based on wage arbitrage i.e. doing back office job of rich countries on lower price and there is nothing really High Tech while Asian Tiger economies now exports high valued sophisticated products because their government has invested in their education that Indian State has failed to do.
@@Dhirajkumar-ls1ws - Yes and No. There are lot of R & D being set up in Bangalore,Hyderabad, Gurgoan and Chennai of top MNC's like Amazon , Boeing , Apple . SaaS is a booming sector in India with 100's of startups. So India is not just a back office now and has moved up in value chain in lot of areas.
@@meetadi4u that is still wage arbitrage at cheapest location. Average engineer in US would cost almost 100k for that.with india as service center, tax can be further reduced
@@pcaso yes but this is way better than being BPO . Also good IT guy is paid above 10,000 dollars and with 10% growth in income is very good for Indian economy . Additional benefit is R & D ecosystem is created which can spur startup’s .
All these 'isms' that are being bandied around - capitalism, communism, socialism even democracy - are temporary phases in the evolution of humanity. Currently, Man in the phase of evolution that he is in, is stressing on economics and economical development as he cannot see beyond the economical and material well-being as the goal of human life hence the stress on capitalism, socialism etc etc. Once the perceived goal of life is changed all these isms will die and new and more meaningful and harmonious isms will come to light.
Alexie was absolutely fantastic. It gave new perspective to me. Abhinav it is better to call to diff ppl instead of calling AIM everytime as it makes lot of things monochromatic. But why he have French accent of English?
Well it's more like Slavic or Russian and less like french as he pronounce consonant as normal intonation and The pronunciation of R is normal contrary to french where they pronounce it with dry gargle sound
@@deadbeat_genius_daydreamer hey, I really don't know diff accent but i just heard lot of French and Italian speaking in similar accent. Hoga phir yeh slavic accent.
I agree with a Lexie that cultural Marxism is fake term.any cultural or social dialectics can not be termed as cultural Marxism.it is just to prolong the Marxian legacy which is already exhausted.as earlier capitalism colluded with feudalism and Lenin alleged that capitalism is abondenimg its historical role of not completing the democratic revolution and hence the proletarian revolution so today’s developed bourgeoise is collaborating with the state controlled capitalism and at home providing a cultural woke superstructure which is a bourgeoise instrument and not a Marxist one
19:30 that's where you should know more. Hindu cultural vision ends with temples & brahmins. Gujaratis after 1947 rallied for rebuilding Somnath temple but when Idi Amin expelled 80k hindus from uganda who were mostly gujaratis, the same state just watched the incident & did nothing to take them back. They were abondoned but finally it was british who took them back not indian. There is a reason uganda hindus descendents hate Indians.
You sound like a typical ignorant woketard peddling half truths. Indira Gandhi while being the PM had refused to help them while taking no action against Uganda at that time, while Gujarat state was also under a congress government. Additionally, Ugandan indians were already citizens of the United Kingdom and colonies which made it easier to relocate to uk, Canada and Australia etc. Though 4k indians from Uganda did make their way back to india. And no Ugandan Hindus are literally the most pro hindu and pro jndia groups of the entire lot even compared to the later indian immigrants.
Lol, when you have an option to choose between India and the UK, most would choose the UK over India, especially that of '70s and '80s. They got to earn pounds and visit India once in a while singing desh ki dharti. Most OCIs from Uganda don't hold any animus against India. In fact, many are better connected to India than those who went to the UK directly from India.
It's strange chrtistanity plays the same role which wokeism is playing now in ancient Rome undermining the culture and values of pagan rome But chrtistanity is a movement started in lower class than creep up in to elite wokeism on the other hand is an elite phenomenon now creeping in to middle and lower class. Christianity may not fully responsible for the fall of roman empire which lead to european darkage but it does play a major role in it I wonder what role wokeism will play and what will be its impact?
get to industrialisation is going to be close to impossible task poor youth are brainwashed to do government job there is social security and promotion also.
It’s common to justify liberalism on the grounds that ’there will always be disagreements’, but this is misleading. The kind of disagreement liberalism thrives on isn’t at all the kind of disagreement that would persist in any system. In a ‘collectivist’ system there would still be disagreements over what course of action is best and institutions might exaggerate their needs to their own advantage, but the means by which this would be reduced would be by improving measures of social utility. The entire apparatus of liberalism is antithetical to treating disagreement in this way and seeking to reduce it in this way. Instead disagreement is treated as fundamental, as stemming from a plurality of views that must be summed together or selected between.
A very insightful point. I'd go even further. If dharma is about overcoming conflict, then liberalism - which seeks to perpetuate conflict in the name of 'freedom', 'human rights', 'diversity' or some other such excuse is...
Economically one can be left or right that is debatable ........ Dharmic characteristics are must ........ Such as George Fernandez......he was a dharmic left
We need an economic system - and above all, a financial system that is Dharmic, not Adharmic. Capitalism and Marxism are both adharmic since they are based on conflict (conflict between individuals; conflict between classes). My own preference for a non-conflictual system is Social Credit.

Well this guy is spot-on when it comes to his commentary on Wokeism /Neo Liberalism. On privatisation in Indian context, this guy isn't convincing. We need to privatise sick , loss making entities , fast We need a double digit economic growth
@@sirbernardwoolley7789 No-one captures the essence of Wokeism & Neo-Liberalism more accurately then this guy does. He is also correct about Jordan "Cuckerson"
@@debasish.d5616 Nope he is wrong about wokeism and is not considering the main thing about the ideology the writing of Marx himself. If you have read the communist manifesto Marx clearly said there is a oppressor and oppressed and it is the duty of the oppressed to join together destroy the oppressor. Now what we are seeing with this woke culture is everyone wants to be oppressed to gain advantage and they choose the oppressor according to their own choice.(eg- in India they say Muslims are oppressed and Hindus are the oppressor and they must be destroyed when on the other hand the Muslims ruled the Hindus for 400 years) That's cultural Marxism 101. And to his question why China and Russia are not doing it.. They are not doing it because they have done it. Under mao in China and stalin in Russia there have been large scale purges to destroy the oppressor(the capitalists or anyone who don't agree with the ruler) and you can read about Chinese cultural revolution and Stalin's Gulag. They tried it it gave horrible results and then they began to reorganise their society back to normal.
Well Mr arora said that there is no thing as cultural Marxism.. I totally disagree with this. If you read the communist manifesto, Marx clearly said there is a oppressor and oppressed and it is the duty of the oppressed to join together destroy the oppressor. Now what we are seeing with this woke culture is everyone wants to be oppressed to gain advantage and they choose the oppressor according to their own choice.(eg- in India they say Muslims are oppressed and Hindus are the oppressor and they must be destroyed when on the other hand the Muslims ruled the Hindus for 400 years ) That's cultural Marxism 101.

I didnt see any reason as to why the first advertisement in the video should be a Khalistani propaganda video. Dear Abhinav Sir please look into the issue as to what is wrong with YT Algorithm.
Taiwan, Singapore, korea and Taiwan all were dictatorships. Only then u can have this state control economy, we can't do that, we cannot replicate that model. We have very different starting point
South Korea became a democracy in the late 1980s and has remained one ever since. While the East Asian Development Model requires a strong independent State, it is not altogether incompatible with public participation in politics. That said, a direct democracy (Swiss-style) might suit it better than representative democracy.
Very out-of-the-box thinking by this guy. I don't know that I buy the line that U.S. DoD funds and approves almost all the research on U.S. college campuses, though. And having read the history and growth trajectory of Critical Theory which is what "woke" is when talking in pop cultural language, I would have to say that "woke" isn't what DoD/elites/establishment pushed, but rather they did take it on with gusto post-2008 likely in order to shield themselves from brickbats thrown by the lies of Tea Party and by Occupy Wall St movement. Fast Forward to 2017, Trump election, and the woke-industrial complex simply got turbocharged. Critical Theory (Wokeism) started off as an outsiders' movement, but has now become the elite it sought to cut down to size. True to their Marxian philosophical anchors, the Woke now having gained power and becoming the establishment, have no qualms of shutting out intellectual opposition... therefore we now have thought policing and all other accoutrements of Marxist regime-- this is not liberalism and nor is it liberal democracy. The only reason liberal democracies in U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, New Zealand, India, etc are giving way to illiberal Far Left/Marxist Wokeism is because they all fail to heed the litmus test of Karl Popper's paradox: if a society is tolerant without limit, its ability to be tolerant is eventually seized or destroyed by the intolerant.
Good conversation "Obviously capitalism is good even North Korea survive over that but S Korean, Taiwanese and japanese style is very good and regulated Chinese style has lot of pot holes and High inequality and main thing is it's not sustainable for long and if you find sustainable way then it's comes from unethical human cost look at Singapore it's regulated there too"
Soviets* loved Russians ain't the one, Ukrainian as well. They liked one of his songs Which praised Russia somehow. It contained lines '' My cap is Russian, shoe is Japanese '' This impressed Russians
I think there are a few reasons, the main one being that the foundational ideas behind the formation of these cultures or civilisations are very different from the West, which was formed on liberal values, from the enlightenment onwards. Woke ideology thrives more in these liberal environments. In Japan, for instance, being fat is looked down upon, their attitude towards the outside world might come off as xenophobic, and they seem to have no reaction towards modern feminism. Other factors could be how seriously a society takes the cultivation of arts and humanities.
South Korea does have these woke idiots in their country, cancel culture is very prevelent there as well. Many netizens also make internet personalities apologize or have their jobs lost for moving moving away from popular public opinion on certain political topics. They too also have the radical feminist types. South Korea imo is an American neo colony, where the popular American discourse on any topic is by default also the view of South Korean state and among the public where America and English is considered something to look up to. I think the reason why it's not making global headlines is because of S. Korea's disconnect with the anglophone world 'cause of the language barrier. And about China, it's a authoritarian regime where everyone complies because their don't want to have the ccp knocking at their door just a minute after they put all this woke bs up on the internet. So the basically the reason behind China being immune from woke bs is regulation of internet and very strict surveillance of it's ppl.
