Folks!
Previously I gave an alternative opinions on Global Warming, but below I'd like to share the opinion of one of the greatest scientists of our time - Steven Hawking.
So it's pretty evident that there's not full consensus in scientific community on issue, at least by the fact that we have alternative opinion from 2 Noble Prize laureats.
As always it's up to you to decide what you should be concerned with.

⬛️ 🇷🇺 15th of April Telegram will be blocked in Russia. This country proves once again, that it wants to degrade itself onto medieval times.
Lucky for me, I left this county with barbaric government and majority of people with slave mentality who pray to power.
People seem to put blame on Putin on what's going on, but I don't fully agree. He just used cleverly urge of Russians to obey to authority. It happens in every office not just in government. All employees kiss ass of the boss and boss kisses ass of bigger boss. Those who polish ass better than others will get ahead and those who don't will be outsiders.
Telegram is just a first stage of putting Russian Internet behind a firewall like in China.
Do you think people are getting angry and going to streets to demand their rights? No, way! The majority is happy to comply with government. The major excuse is "telegram is for terrorists, I have nothing you hide". Well you don't because you're an empty space without own thoughts or will.
Open minded people have been escaping from Russia since 2014 and today country proved once again, that these people made a right decision.
Do not be naive and think that you're not capable of evil things. Before you try to repair the world, you have to make some discoveries in your own mind.
⬛️ Hello folks! Many of you must have heard name Machiavelli or an adjective Machiavellian.
For too long I've been posting bright or "good" ideas here. It's time to go into darkness and Machiavelli is one of the best in the world in this field.
Niccolo Machiavelli was an Italian thinker, politician and philosopher who wrote a book called "The Prince". For those who haven't read it I strongly suggest to do so(it's very short book).
Why are Machiavelli's ideas important for self development?
One of the simplests reasons for me - Because "The Prince" is like a Bible of Every Politician.
His ideas are excreamly cynical, brutal, immoral and give very sober view on a society.

Knowing that most of folks are extreamly lazy to read even a little books I got you a short video explaining Machiavelli's ideas.
Enjoy !💀

Do you support your country's government?
💭 Everytime i watch a Sam Harry's talk I can't help myself I get so bored that I become sleepy instantly. Sam is considered as one of the smartest thinkers out there and I personally admire his ability to keep cool in every debate. Perhaps too cool... 😴
Telegram became a symbol of freedom of speech in Russia.
Russian authorities proved again to be a bunch of moronic imbeciles by disrupting half of Russian Internet in an attempt to block Telegram.

Would you kill an innocent person you've just met if person of authority told you to ?

Have you tried an Auschwitz guard thought experiment I've suggested in a previous video post ?
⬛️ Hello folks! You might have been surprised by the question. I also deliberately asked if you've tried an experiment to compare the answers.
93% answered they wouldn't have killed an innocent person if they were authorized to do so. Well I think you're going to be more surprised about what you'll learn next.
According to "Milgrim experiment" more than 65% of us would kill.
Maybe subscribers of @talks are among the minority of rebels who think for themselves or maybe you're just lying to yourself. Think about it while watching video of the experiment.

Thank Roskomnadzor(Russian gov. cencorship org.) for telegram connection problems. They couldnt block telegram in Russia, so they decided to DDOS it and block for whole world.
Russian demonstration for the freedom of Internet. 🙌✌️

⬛️ Folks, I'd also like to learn how to escape conformism. Do I know all of the answers ? No.
However we all must intuitevly realize that answers lie in our brains.
That means we should look deeper into ourselfs, but how do you do it? Well it's very problematic, because we are conscious, but consciousness is the product of our brain. It's like milk trying to study a cow, majority of work being done by our brain is invisiable to our conscience.
Therefore i believe that first step in recognising our limitations.
Second step is building mental "tools" in our brains for more critical thinking, I do not understan our brain better and to think more critically about the world.

Recognising limitations is not a building block - it's a breaking block. No matter how smart you think you are, no matter how sophisticated are your mental "tools", you can still be wrong about the reality. Recongnition of limitation can give you flexibility to change/adabt your tools whenever needed.

Milgram experiment i've posted previously is great example of our limitations.
Today I'm going to share the most infamous social science experiment ever made -The Stanford Prison Experiment. You've probably heard about this experiment.
When you watch keep in mind - any participant was free to leave the experiment when they didnt wish to continue, but they chose not to.
