Very enlightening.
Is there anyone who talks about a Spiritual component as it relates to AI. For example, if the Illumination of Conscience that has been prophesied is a real thing - it would make sense that it would happen before AI get to the point of possibly destroying humanity, or at least causing irreversible mayhem. Do a search on Illumination of Conscience.
No one ever talks about it, but before world war I the sultan Hassan of Jerusalem conducted pogroms against the "Dhinmis" For centuries, Jews or persecuted in Israel first by the Christians and then by the Muslims. There was moments of Peace, but only if the Jews accepted their secondhand status.
Sorry, but this guest is extremely biase and one-sided. But most of all he's naive. If he doesn't understand that Muslims all over the world have persecuted Jews and treated them like second-class citizens. So how can he think that if Israel had a Muslim majority it would do anything but the same. A 56:49 nd history doesn't start where he decides it starts. Dues have a long history in Israel longer than The Muslims.
BDS is not from gaza, its from middle/upperclass liberals outside of Palestine.
Why did Bibi Netanyahu fund and support Hamas for decades to the tune of billions? Coleman is a clown.
That you very much for this exelent lecture. greetings from Germany.
Coleman has been schooled by Youssef. At the end of the day it's really easy to school a Zionist because justice and truth are on the Palestinian side.
This idea that black people, the whole of black people, every single black person across the globe, are somehow less intelligent as a collective is not something that is new to us. 'Understanding' this type of insidious racism will never benefit us, nor will it benefit the mediocre people who create and adopt this prejudiced RELIGION. What's odd about this whole online conversation, this whole elaborate pseudoscience, is that a simple Google search would inform you that black people had governments, kingdoms, cultures, and invented things prior to the arrival of the European. I'm so happy that most of us have not and never will come across this channel. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ea2lp6yMnNKbYps.htmlsi=j3kcZrLkFH1g0KMT
The host is bias
Good grief, what nonsense this woman talks. Let’s be clear and state would should be the obvious. Throughout recorded human history, people have been ruled by elites wielding absolute power. This was the case in China in exactly the same way as it was in every other nation around the globe. But over the centuries, three important concepts emerged in western democracies that have never happened in many territories and certainly not in China. Firstly, there was the establishment of the ‘rule of law’. This meant that the rulers, all rulers, were subject to the same laws as were the ruled. The second concept was ‘free expression’ open to all citizens and not to just the rulers. This developed during the Enlightenment but, again, it certainly didn’t happen in China. Eventually, the third concept emerged called ‘universal suffrage’ which mean that all citizens had the right to vote in elections for the people who made the laws. Now, the rich and the powerful around the world have spent a lot of time and effort in sabotaging the application of these important concepts and for obvious reasons. Once people have experienced wealth and power, they don’t not want to give it up. That is simply a fact regarding basic human nature. Indeed, once people have it, they want more of it. One of the main threats to Western democracies is that the rich and powerful have been very successful in developing cunning and effective ways of maintaining their power. This is true in every western liberal democracy as it is in China. The simple reason why elites have been so successful in undermining liberal democracy is that ‘governments’ of whatever sort are, by their very nature, both corrupt and incompetent in equal measure. Incompetence will always lead to corruption and corruption will always lead to incompetence in an ever-increasing spiral. In western democracies, the only safeguard that ordinary people have, and it’s not very much at all, is their right to vote their leaders out of power. This is something that the people of China have never had. But when one talks about ‘China’, it is simply foolish to talk about the Chinese people. The views and opinions of the people are completely irrelevant. The Chinese people are ruled by the most sophisticated criminal organisation in human history. It is called the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). They are murderers, they are liars and they are thieves. The leaders of the CCP regard China as their property. The land belongs to them and the people belong to them. In terms of depravity, what is going on in China is on a par with the Islamic State and the Nazis. We know that so called ‘doctors’ in Chinese hospitals are routinely ripping the organs from healthy young men or women, particularly those who wish to practise the Falum Gong culture for the use of wealthy transplant patients. We can only imagine what is happening to the Uighurs as the CCP seek to eliminate a complete nation. Meanwhile, the ordinary people of China are living in an Orwellian nightmare where every aspect of their lives is monitored by CCP thugs. The CCP under Mao Zedong plunged the Chinese people into poverty in the first place and the only improvements following his death was when his successor, Deng Xiaoping, relaxed economic controls enabling ordinary people to drag themselves out of the worst poverty despite the CCP’s mis-management of the Chinese economy. The very existence of the CCP is a profound threat to the civilised world. As appalling as the situation in western democracies may be at the present time, they are a million miles from the depravity of the CCP. Indeed, the CCP is only able to survive because the rich and power in the west have been using Chinese slave labour to secure cheap goods at the expense of workers in the west. At the same time, the wealthy in the west invest in China because they make lots of money at dreadful cost to ordinary people. The CCP would never countenance the proper rule of law, free expression or universal suffrage. Their only interest is in controlling the people, stealing their wealth, eliminating any possible opposition to their power and enriching themselves. This young woman is either incredibly naïve and gullible or is a cheap propagandist for the CCP and only a fool would take anything that she might say seriously.
China practices a blockade of Phillipine fishing in Phillipine waters. The main reason China is unpopular is that it practices a truly Orvellian surveillance dictatorship. Who wants to support that.When the people of China realizes that they need to free themselves from this, great good will will appear out of nowhere from the west. China has shown what promises to Hong kong were worth. Nobody is buying their Taiwan lies. The west does not want a war but, it won't be bullied or cowed.
Per Munayyer's historical account, he's right. BUT what about the Jewish historical right to the land from before the common era? What about the Arab riots from 1927, way before 1947? Why are the Arabs settlers from 1947 retroactively recognized as an independent people deserving self determination if they were de facto Jordanians? My Jewish grandfather who was born in Palestine (under British mandate) is just as much "Palestinian" as his Arab Jordanian neighbor.
This leftist is right on. Hats off
I'm glad that Yousef called out Coleman's beliefs as being rooted in essentialism and bigotry. I am tired of Coleman repeating again and again the racist talking point that the Palestinian ethnicity is grounded in hate for Israelis. Anti-Arab bigotry must be called out. Thank you, Yousef!
This is such a heavily edited interview that I wonder whether Yousef complained. The edits are extremely noticeable.
i think a lot of the comments complaining about mounayer’s tone or attitude do so because it’s pretty clear that on the substance coleman was out of his depth here and frequently grasping at straws
I would say that it's unchanging is that's about the time the drug epidemic started and destroyed the black neighborhoods. Schools are bad. Single parent families. If it increases for a 30 to 40 time period. You'd have more intelligent people and by nature they would have relationships with more intelligent people. You would see the increases again. So it's not something that would be unchanging.
Lovely young man who's never has worked a hard day or missed a meal in his life. Not one callous on his hands and he goes for regular mani/ pedis.
People have different talents beyond cognitive ability but this conversation was awesome. I read Charles Book and recommend it. Thanks Coleman for giving him a forum.
Coleman betrays himself time and again by trying to steer the debate towards tired cliches of Islam vs Judaism.
Coleman's argument: Everything is philosophically dependent, bla, bla, bla....
For a guy who swims against the tide, Coleman refers to pro Zionist historians that are part of the dominant corporate narrative instead of Jewish Israeli historians like Ilan Pappe, Avi Shlaim or Norman Finkelstein who risk everything to present the current conflict along objective and dialectical lines.
One finds some of the most brilliant philosophers are hopelessly informed on geopolitics or current affairs.
Never thought I'd see the day when Coleman was being disingenuous and hiding behind banal arguments, cherry picked dates and complete oblivion of past events. Hiding behind words like cynicism, tribalism to describe well entrenched concepts of law and justice, human rights that are passed on a daily basis within any Western country but denied to the Palestinians is to be completely disingenuous! Yousef swept the floor with him.
No wonder, Hitler disregard them Israel in Germany, due to their hegemony tenancies, to dominate places and people they they try step unto
Some of the biggest liars I know are Muslim. 😂 especially the men. And the women are delusional
48:23 The thing that bothers me about Jamelle's view of the Black middle class living in areas of poverty, that their white contemperaries do not, is that he neglects to mention the cultural reasons why these communities remain in a unpoverished state. As a child growing up in these areas, I see the change in how many of us care for our neighborhoods. Criminals used to be in the shadows of our community. Now they are in the forefront. Businesses are weary of opening in these areas due to crime. In my opinion, the culture and pride we have lost since the late 60's needs to return.
Coleman Hughes looked completely out of his League in this debate. I was a little embarrassed for him to be honest
Does Coleman ever express an emotion? Ever smile or laugh? Dude seems like a robot.
I also suggest she talk to immigrants who go to the USA with nothing and are able to make a great living as a result of the abundance of capital in the USA. This is unlike other more socialist countries like Germany and I am speaking from experience having lived in both.
She should go to Cuba and talk to Cubans, and the talk about how Marxist ideas are the solution to exploitation.
I think it’s ill informed to say all Asian, Whites, and “Latinos” have the same culture. If the Irish are doing worst than other “whites” it could indeed be a result of culture
Q : Are you an ‘Uncle Tom’? A: No! I cannot possibly be an ‘Uncle Tom’, because I am BLACK - and a scholar! - and all scholars are defenders of the oppressed - Look at Milton Friedman - He is a member of a social minority - . . . - and he is a scholar. Q: Milton Friedman may be a member of a minority - but is there any reason to suppose that he is opposed to right wing employment policy? A: You are trying to confuse the issue . . . Blah? blah
37:20 these people always go to "wacism" in the end when they aren't getting their way. The Palestinians have literally said they want to murder the jews. Hamas have it in the first few lines of their charter.
Bibi funneled money to Hamas BECAUSE they are an extremist group- doing so subverted the PLO and moderate Palestinian political factions. Their ascendancy was engineered by Bibi. Also, Hamas changed its charter in 2017, but this doesn't matter. You don't acknowledge the broad range of Palestinian political perspectives, which is not surprising due to the repression.
The problem with this discussion is that one party thinks Israel should exist and the other thinks Israel shouldn't exist. So they just go around in circles. Great discussion given that context though.
The children's truth might not be their truth it might be the society they grew up in.😢
China's century of humiliation is far worse than American slavery. In that process, the west killed, robbed, burnt and annexed Chinese territories any way as they wished in the late 1980s and early 90s. Then came the Japanese invading the weakened China and killed millions. The Blacks under the American slavery were probably much luckier as most of them would have food and shelter if they worked. Whereas, today, you find thousands of people in the US sleeping in the streets and some without food or work. SLAVERY is a hard word to define. Many emigrants today in SEA, EUROPE, US have to work so hard to survive that they are not less than what the American would call SLAVERY when compared to them, most people in Xing Jiang are living in luxury. Occasional law enforcement scenes in China are blown up as brutal regime which will now seen as pale in comparison to the way the campus protests are suppressed in the US.
To the moderator: Her views are not "lone voice". It's a shame that you thought so. You have to hear and read more eastern news and views, reports and broadcasts. The fact that you probably don't speak or know Chinese probably means you have no access to Asians views and kept yourself within the Western controlled and prejudiced views. This is why and where lack of understanding about China breeds.
The thing though is that men and women have the same IQ. When we suggest boys to skip a year, we suggest boys to have a huge advantage here... kind of like cheating.
You can't legislate fairness. Life is full of suffering and setbacks, yet Black America refuses to acknowledge that it is true for all of us. One thing you guys fail to take into account is White America's absolute fatigue with the matter of race. We've done everything possible and it hasn't brought Black America to the place it thinks it should be. And we continue to suffer from the crime it inflicts upon us all.
This Coleman fellow isn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer. His constant attempts to sound intelligent while messing with his sinuses is annoying AF.
Great opening Coleman Hughes.
Why don't you bring someone represnting the palestinian view point.
First lie
He's delusional.
This guest is a clown 😂
There has never been a country called Palestine then how are there Palestinians. The vast majority are Arabs from Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Egypt that migrated 1880s to 1947 to Israel/Judea. So many Arabs migrated to Israel/Judea for jobs because of Jews and the Brits. They are foreigners to the land just like the European Jews. Mark Twain explored there in 1867 and referred to the place as a waste land.
It’s always been obvious that your pussified self is afraid of all things Muslim. Let me explain something to your passive-aggressive, disingenuous, patronizing, Zionist, Israel-dikriding, wannabe-Sam Harris houseni*ga self: Rushdie and Hirsi Ali were threatened (and actually attacked in the case of Rushdie) because of the way they look. Like you, both have a constantly smug look on their face coupled with their patronizing tone, while Rushdie looks like a creepy sex offender with ptosis (and that’s why his attacker went for his eye with a knife 😂) and Hirsi Ali is clearly an Australopithecus left over from the Pleistocene epoch. Never underestimate the power of the way someone looks and its bearing on the degree to which they are allowed to be a smug offensive contrarian; I can assure you if either Rushdie or Hirsi Ali looked like Brad Pitt, a beautiful Nordic Aryan, nobody would care what they have to say literally about any subject, including Muslim sacred cows
