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.

⬛️ 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.

P.S. There's a series of posts coming next after this post. I'm planing to cover such topics as money managment, propaganda, default mode network etc...

Would you believe if I told you that all of new popular music sounds same ?
🎼 Hey folks ! Lets all meet a "Millennial Whoop" ! The term was created by musician Patrick Metzger.
"The millennial whoop is a melodic pattern alternating between the fifth and third notes in a major scale, typically starting on the fifth, in the rhythm of straight 8th-notes, and often using the "wa" and "oh" syllables." -wikipedia.
This doesnt say anything to me.
I dont know about you, but my music experience will never be the same !
Below is just one example, but there's plenty of Millennial Whoop playlists.

⬛️ Today I’d like to Talk about critical thinking in money-making💸.
Have you ever seen books with titles like "How to become a millionaire"? Did u ever wonder that it's impossible? What idiot would open you a secret of becoming rich for 5-10 bucks? And how could it be a secret if thousands of people bought this book?
If you knew a secret of making a fortune you might have shared it with best friend, wife or parents. Not the whole world!
I do not give u advice on how to become rich, because I'm not rich, but I can give u advice how not to be poor. Do not waste your time on advices from people who became rich by selling books about getting rich. It takes much less time to Google background of an author than wasting a lot of it by reading whole book and wasting your money.
This also has to do with hundreds of Crypto channels out there that promise u that they'll make u rich by signing up. Promissing they'll pick the best crypto currency to invest. And then they advertise scam ICOs to all of dummies to invest or they suggest coins which they have bought themselves to sell them on profit to You.

As a rule of thumb -Do not buy loud titles, they're 99,999% bullshit!

More over most of the public "financial analysts" or gurus do not make good predictions - that's not their job. Their job is to sell you something. Usually when you go over their "prediction" record - results are SOO bad that even a monkey would pick better prediction by throwing darts at board with predictions 🐒+🎯=📈.
Script of TV/Youtube Investment Guru goes like this: talk a lot; throw out numbers and percentages; use specialized jargon to sound professional; give condradicting predictions( "it might go up, but it might go down) and in 3-4 months say "see! I told you it will go up/down!" and most people would "eat" it without checking.
A succesful invesment guru can talk about general ideas, but won't give you any specific predictions for free and not going to sell you any course on how to invest, but these general ideas are still more valuable than Celebrity Analyst's predictions.

Ultimatly you will have to do your own long an meticulous research and take your own responsibility. If got it right - your research methodology is working, if you got it wrong - reflect and adjust your research. Tip from top venture investment fund(forgot the name): Get a research partner, when you want to invest into project study it together and ask you partner to attack project in a debate. If you still feel confident about project after debate then grab your balls and pull the trigger. 🔫

The real money-making secret would be the secret that You discovered Yourself and to do it You should trust Your own research more than anyone else's. Buffet says that to be successful in investing one doesn't need IQ higher than 85 and I believe that @talks subscribers are much smarter than that 😉.

And lastly check out 🔽example the kind of project YOU SHOULD NEVER EVER INVEST! 🚫📛⛔️ 😂
P.S I still can't believe some people lost their life savings by investing into this project 🤦🏻‍♂️
