Or are we just getting started
Don’t stop
Don’t stop
Now move
I feel I find the groove
I’m real no hiding suite
I’m sliding thru
Don’t stop
Don’t stop
Now go
I seen you drop it low
No need to take it slow
Now let your body loose control
Don't stop don't stop
Now drop it
I take off I blast like rocket
That's me inside that cockpit
Since we've dropped I've popped like socket
Now what's on the docket
Next thing you know I'll be picking your locket
Give it a week she'll be saying I'm not shit
But I do not care I'll be bringing the hot shit
I'm the planet rotation
I will not stop 'till the standing ovation
She's always telling and telling me patience
But I just want to have the sexual relations
I did have sexual relations with that woman
Still with that woman
Thinking it wrong but you know that you shouldn't
Do what I do and I do what you couldn't
I don't stop I don't stop
I won't stop the cooking
Don’t stop
Don’t stop
Now move
I feel I find the groove
I’m real no hiding suite

No tat on my face but but the hooks always swinging
Cheering me on so bring it
My ears are ringing
I hear the ticking
I hear the talking
I’m always rockin'
I am like jimmy now wonder cause I'm off of the Hendricks
I’m in a different dimension
4 D or 5 I Arrive your pretentious
Hang onto me because baby I’m precious
Get the impression
your not impressive
Open your eyes cause your mouth is a weapon
Thinking your Less than
Listen to reggae

The song "Don't" by Actually is a party anthem that encourages everyone to let loose and enjoy themselves without any inhibitions. The lyrics suggest that the night is just beginning, and no one should stop now that they are in the groove. The song begins with the question of whether they should stop or not, which is quickly answered with the refrain of "Don't stop, don't stop" repeated throughout the song. The singer then encourages the listener to move to the rhythm and let their body loose control.
As the song progresses, the singer talks about his confidence in his abilities to make everyone have a good time. He likens himself to a rocket blasting off and promises to bring the "hot shit" that everyone will love. The performer also mentions his sexual prowess, but he is unapologetic about it. He claims that he is doing what others could not, and he won't stop cooking because he is always rocking.
The song's final verses encourage everyone to forget about their worries and stress and just enjoy the night. The singer tells the listeners to keep dancing, and he assures them that he is always there rocking with them. Even if someone may not feel impressive, they should open their eyes and smile because the night is all about having fun and feeling good.

@Donovan Jones while I do think they're evil, since companies can't make it big by being nice and they're heavy polluters too there's a very good and important thing to their infertile plants: They're incapable of spreading around the world.
Some people, probably less so in the US, are very paranoid about GMOs. Some think they'll modify your DNA, which is bullshit. They're just designer plants.
The problem with GMOs in my opinion is that each individual modification could have some unforeseen consequences. For example, the gene that makes a fruit grow bigger and juicer might also help produce chemicals in it that make humans unfertile, or be harmful in some other way.
That's why I'm okay with GMOs, AS LONG AS their reproduction is tightly controlled, which is rather easy in animals, but impossible in most plants without making them infertile.
So Monsanto's one-year seeds are pretty much the middle ground between having no GM plants whatsoever for safety reasons and permanently spreading unknown risks around the world.
(by the way I'm not an expert on genetic modification or plants specifically, but I do have a degree in molecular biology)

Thank you for another great video, as I've come to expect!
After over a decade of watching a lot more youtube than I'd like to admit, I consider yours the most valuable channel I've found, since you present these important political insights more concisely than I've seen anywhere else :)
That said, in case you are looking for future video ideas, I'd be highly interested to get some book recommendations from you. Maybe even other types of media, like key scientific papers demonstrating capitalisms negative tendencies or the like.
I'd love to read up on it more, and have something more to reference when talking about this stuff than just a youtube channel, even though I'll still always recommend your channel.
Hope you don't take it wrong. People just aren't gonna take a youtube channel as a serious reference, even though - as I said - I'll recommend you anyways. After all a video is much easier to get into than a book :)
I wish you all the best!

What Bail Out are We Talking about ?
THE US IS NOT FREE, NOR IS THE US "FREE MARKET CAPITALISM".
THE OP CORRECT.
CAPITALISM IS ANOTHER WORD FOR SOCIALISM. THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DIFFERENT BUT THEY ARE JUST DIFFERENT WORDS FOR THE "SYSTEM"
CAPITALISM IS GREAT AT REDISTRIBUTING WEALTH TO THE TOP 1% AT THE EXPENSE OF THE WORKING SOCIETY.
@coolioso808
@@SlickSimulacrum Oh, I think we are basically on the same page here. I'm a regular listener to Peter Joseph's Revolution Now podcast, it is quite good, you are right, and much of his other works. I've also got into the works of Moneyless Society who hit the nail on the head quite well with the absurdity of the capitalist system and the need to change to a sustainable, healthy system like a resource based economy.
Money has become debt. Debt has been around about as long as money. They may be slightly different, but not much. I do understand modern money enough to know that, for example, fiat currency countries like the US, Canada, UK, etc. can print as much money as they need, they cannot run out of money and can pay for whatever they wanted if the real resources are there. That's why their enormous federal debts don't really matter and they are never expected to pay them back. Money, in that case, is like a unit of measure. However, unlike inches or pounds, it is a unit of measure that has horrific consequences on the quality of life of billions of people because the entire world is run by money. (Except the very, very few nomadic hunter-gatherer groups still just living off the land or a small community in a resource rich area like India or Costa Rica living in eco-villages)
So "money" isn't the problem in the same way that money in the game Monopoly isn't a problem to anybody not playing the game. It doesn't matter how much Monopoly money I have it won't effect your quality of life unless we are specifically playing the game and it gets damn frustrating to be the poor guy losing everything to the rich capitalist. No wonder that game always ends with a board flip from the poor guy with nothing to lose! Haha.
But we are playing "Monopoly" for real with money that humans have been born into a system that believes in it. We don't have to. There is nothing in human history that says we must live in a monetary-market society. In fact, our longest stretch of social organization as humans was without money or markets. Over 90%. That's far longer than we've ever had money and markets.
We might learn from that to say that the best social organization today would be an egalitarian society with modern technology applied to create a post-scarcity economy with multiple self-sufficient, decentralized autonomous, directly democratic communities.
Now how we could get from here to there, well money might help, if it is a way that helps us transition like a UBI or certain countries have enough social safety nets like free childcare, education, transportation, housing guarantees, etc. so that people can choose to start organizing around building a resource based society in their region.
Despite the challenge of a major system change, we don't really have any other moral options. We try to get off the toxic capitalist system and towards something like a resource based economy or we see our society and ecology continue to collapse. When put that way, it becomes pretty clear what we should be trying to do.
You are clearly wise to the problem and open to the possible solutions. You are a valuable asset to the positive contribution to humanity's possible sustainable future. It sounds really cliche, but there's truth in the saying: Divided we fall, united we stand. United Citizens of Earth with a global conscience and local action to create self-sufficiency.

@@SlickSimulacrum Thanks for sharing your experience there with TZM and trying to get some momentum going locally. I haven't gone to meetings, I learned about TZM much later than those films came out, but once I got wind of them I consumed as much knowledge about those concepts as I could. Now I feel I have a firm grasp on the root problem, and some viable alternatives solutions - as you seem to, as well.
We are in this strange time in history where a dispersed group of humans know deeply how flawed the capitalist economic system is, how we cannot continue in monetary-market economics and expect society to get healthier, more efficient and sustainable for the vast majority of people. It will just get worse unless we see system change.
But for system change to happen it will take more than a few people to do it. It'll take a critical mass. And yes, Peter has been trying to educate people in the right direction, and it has been frustrating.
To me it's like so clear to me the core problem and the solutions. It's like being in a burning building full of people, and you and I and a few others can clearly see it is burning up and it was started by a lit cigar, the fire is growing - it is consuming the whole building. Using a bit of water to put out some small fires will not be enough. We have to EXIT the building and get to a new structure. A new, stable structure. All we are trying to do is get people to realize to save themselves they need to get out of the building with us and that we know why the fire was started and why it can't be saved by staying in the building. But people who are listening to the "In House PA System" that is owned by the rich are telling people "Don't leave the building, there is no fire, even if there is some sparks you can put them out and you'll be fine, just keep working in the building and never question if the building is on fire or why it might be on fire." (This is capitalist propaganda that bombards people all their lives)
Yes, this is a frustrating time when you can see the clear truth and better path forward but most people aren't seeing it.
However, maybe back then it wasn't the time. Maybe we need a few 'run-up' moments, maybe things do have to get worse like they are now: income inequality, more war, more suffering, more poverty, more worker burnouts, etc. Things get worse, now people are more open to listening to possible solutions.
Maybe we just keep putting the message out there, sharing facts, knowledge and support so that as people are ready to receive it that will build a stronger community, locally and globally.
Maybe if we look back 50 years from now (whoever is around then) they say the 2010s were when some people really started understanding that capitalism, the system, was unsustainable and needed to change, despite all the noise and propaganda distracting many people from getting that message. But the small percentage of people didn't give up, they kept going, kept educating, kept spreading awareness and eventually into the 2020s as quality of life got worse for many people, that became a tipping point where many more people were open to solutions that they previously would never have considered. That 2020s became the beginning of a great transition from monetary-market economics to a resource based economy.
Nobody knows exactly how the future will go, but we can look at the data and say that under the current capitalist system, it cannot turn out well for humanity since capitalism is unsustainable. That means the only moral option is to at least try to get system change to happen through the combination of efforts for education, communication, mutual aide and real life new system building.
@SecondThought
Howdy, friends! Thanks for watching this week's episode. If you haven't already heard, I'm in the process of producing a 10-part series on the history and resurgence of fascism around the world. It's called The New F-Word, and the first four episodes are available on Nebula right now! I'm really proud of how it's coming along so far, so it would mean a lot to me if you'd check it out. If you already have a Nebula subscription, here's a direct link to the series: https://nebula.tv/thenewfword If you don't have a Nebula account yet, you're in luck! You can get free access to Nebula when you sign up for CuriosityStream with my link! It's like 12 bucks a year for full access to both platforms, which is (in my opinion) the best deal in streaming. If you wanna give it a shot, visit https://curiositystream.com/secondthought ! Thanks so much for your support 🙏
@newtrebel
I'm going to give this a try soon, you and other creators have done so much to convince me to support this YT alternative.
Also, thanks for pointing out that this video in no way should encourage people to fall for simplistic and harmful conspiracy theories. Unfortunately, there's already quite a few Schwab 'quotes' in the comments, I suspect because of the title you chose. It's a good title, just unfortunate that politicians (on the far right mostly) have been spreading these often anti-semitic BS stories among insecure people. It's something I struggle with daily, as those people could really benefit from learning more about socialist causes and organizing.

@mikethechemis
In case you don't know, there's a channel called "Держать Курс", which is dedicated almost completely to the fascism topics. There are a couple of videos in English or with subtitles, so I guess you would find it a useful source of information.

I remember in the 80s how the media were reporting why we started job-hopping. They kept saying we were picky and short-cutting the corporate ladder climb when all we were really doing was scrambling for wages sufficient to living. That was the beginning.
