Lost Generation

[2Surprising4U]

Wow, I saw this video in the seventh grade and now I saw this from my friend. Either way, it still inspire me.

[prettypianoplayer100]

the first half is so sad, but so true. it kind of makes me ashamed to be a part of this generation.

[MegaDryMartini]

LOVE THIS - God bless the posterity of the USA - do not let a political you are a victim progressive philosophy convince you that American culture is terrible/you have no hope/you are hopeless without government/capitalism is horrible/ children are a terrible burden/love does not exist because that philosophy is death. OCCUPY YOURSELF - BELIEVE in the American Dream and make it true. The USA is the greatest nation is all the world, not perfect, but the best - LIVE and VOTE your freedom.

[usr027]

Society evolves like genes. Those abnormal social mutations like divorce, homosexuality, unjust actions by individuals which go unpunished, flourish and evolve like they are the fittest to survive. More people will become infected with abnormal social norms.

Hope, is only as imaginative as a Hollywood movie or a youtube video.

Americans saved the world from Aliens, Injustice, Dictators, Terrorists and Serial Killers. We all have seen how much of it is true in real life...

[facebaner]

I like it, and my job, and my family. Looks like all is well.

[reuvenweinstein]

wow 1 of the most amazing things ive ever heard

[ebonywinged]

I thought about stopping my lethargy but... meh...

[Krepke23]

Very nice but humanity is hopeless

[CorporalShephard]

Nice... I've seen that technique b4.... pretty amazing what you can do with it, Congrats :)

[ZaveJay]

THATS SO INSANE! AWESOME! INCREDIBLE!

[JakeTheMarshmellow]

Seriously gave me goosebumps. Awesome.

[imrubenator]

[Livybean16]

This video is amazing. I am going to show it to my class. Great job!

Truly inspiring!

[dangerjuices]

[CrzyRandomness]

i demand morgan freeman to say this

[dangerjuices]

@CrzyRandomness damn right

[rekkujalmari]

This deserved a professional voice actor.

[MrGnoise]

@rekkujalmari No I love the voice!

[leggjesusfreak]

AMAZING!

[Jodiecarez1]

This was fantastic!

year6 x

[thumbsup008]

that's pretty cool

[ApplicationAndroid]

tightttttttttt

[theoreticalVlog]

I wish that this was in higher quality...because this is awesome.

[treyegirl]

@piehunter so did ours

[seahhanwen]

Why do people dislike this?... It is not like it is bad...

[Simonprefix]

I watch this every now and then and I must say this is one of the best, most inspiering films on youtube, well done!

[ZitherMaster97]

they showed me this in english class. its really good!!

[Bananie102]

oooooh i was confused/depressed then happy

[spongypillows]

when i finished i said

'wow. this just changed my life'

[dp535i]

very positive. cheers

[milyl982]

to quote my husband... "this is pretty freakin' cool."

[teetertoter3]

oooooooh

[PaulChekLive]

H.T. Urt said, "A little bit of nonsense repeated regularly for just 10 years can wipe out 100 years of truth". While you may believe that is true, it is only belief that makes anything true "to you". If H.T. Urt's insightful comment is true, then, "A little bit of truth, repeated regularly for just 10 years, can wipe out 100 years of nonsense". I put my love into the later. Your lovely video shows how all we need do is flip any idea over so we can envision wholeness.

Love and chi,

Paul Chek

[Gillz93]

trip out

[angeldoesntknowwhat1]

This is ABSULUTLY amazingg. i lovee it (:

[TPhilosopher]

I wonder how many of the people who watch this video think it's really powerful but continue to go about their daily lives in complete ignorance of its message.

[teetertoter3]

@TPhilosopher I did! :D

[pokemon068]

EPIC WIN!!!!!

[CrazyMazapan]

Awesome. Glad to see there's still hope out there.

[qed100]

Each generation is the Lost Generation. Each is confident that they're purer of heart than the one just before. There's nothing new here.

[teflonboy12321]

@qed100 Damn right. This shit is ridiculous! (Y)

[Janne12355]

very awesome

[schnakesrox]

Awesome and well done.

[cammo6901]

that was so cool!

[SabreTooth123]

Nice, well done.

[detectiveconanbunny]

Amazing! This is honesty and breathtaking. . . It's making me think! I'm glad I stumbled upon this.

[renealan]

clever....

[stigmaXtrance]

The first half is true... the last half is optimistic, but most likely will not happen.

[Blessed2bFresh]

stumbled from Orlando, FL......This video is quite sad and unfortunate, but very true at the same time. I hope reading backward be comes the way of the day

[xKnighttimex]

bas ass

[musicmylife1993]

Wow...brilliant, and just AMAZING!

[spazzmik]

Wow.. The beginning speaks the truth, and I too hope my generation can turn our sad behaviours around for the future; to better it.

[razzledazzle41191]

Really powerful, I love it!

[10CPhil]

Brilliant!

[Andorz]

Stumbled from Sweden. Great video, great message. Good job!

[uram119]

stumbled from Sacramento, Ca

[budbundy87]

The thing is......... reverse is only for fools. I still think we are screwed, everything about us. Kids grow up with cell phones, videogames, porn... they're no longer intersted in math, science and biology for example. Some people should watch the movie idiocracy, it's kind of how i see the world in some time... until then.... keep reading backwards.

[mrfoltz]

GREAT! I hope the foward doesn't come true but the reverse does?

[ladysoulist]

WOW!!!! AWESUM!!!

[pamcornz]

this will be true if we try to ignore family which is the most important part in the society,,

the basic part,,,

hope it will nit happen ..

let's do something about it,,,

[Hellyardsown]

what's messed up is I was like damn this is convicting, but agreed with it then it switched...

[MuzikizGodd]

ooooooooohhh.. didn't c that coming.

wow

[xanjelx]

I agree up to about 0.50.

[Tanukii]

Naice! Very, very clever wording.

[Darkjamac04]

Wow that was rediculously creative! I was thinking sort of pessemistic when I read this, until it went backwards, then i was like WOAH reverse!

[Turbohead25]

lol me too i was like wow she just hate everything huh?

[Kuanyu24]

omg... this is incredible!! its sooo clever!! Hats off for this and its totally true~

[jdelarbre]

Thank you for opening my eyes. We cannot not continue the same path our generation is taking... We must wake up and start making a difference.

I like what someone wrote: "the family is the ONLY natural way of human grouping". Let's fight to keep them together!!!

[dunpeal21]

I see what you did there...

[henryot]

Apart from the content, this is interesting structurally as it extremely clearly demonstrates the way "unenlightened clerical linear narrative" and narrow point focussed thinking can be turned around to mean the opposite simply by a change of perspective.. in this case reversing the time-line. Much confusion exists (and is the cause of much conflict) due to common mis-perceptions (single perceptions) of "Cause & Effect" "Have & Need & Want" ..

[Davertin]

He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.

1 John 5:12

[hydraloveingman1]

Wow, manic depressive AND born again nutcase!

[Th3ch0s3n0n3s]

Davertin, you sound exactly like a Muslim.

[jenkneefur]

this bitch is clever !

[2255gun]

clever very smart

[BboySoulz]

wow...very clever.

[SailorOmnia]

i love things like this. so cool.

just goes to show you the importance of phrase order.

[shaniquatheguineapig]

I'm sick of my generation getting shit on all the time, but I did enjoy the video anyway =p

[mli21]

Genius !!!

[SchizophrenicToaster]

My jaw literally dropped. Loved it.

[Ahbelina]

Clever Stufffffffff............

[jusek27]

This is pretentious, but very clever.

[kuyarick]

you don't reinforce positive values by using negatives. this sappy vid fails.

[Razorrocks]

Actually how you reinforce positive values is different for each person you gibbering, unintelligent, socially inept retard, and no i will not look at anything you post beyond this or regarding this.

[ElGoodo]

Why not?

[fusion01wp]

stunning

[sasastaaz]

thx.

[gvsuAJ137]

GREAT

[ilikebike]

Kate! We have to go back!

I didn't even see the hatch in this video :(

[darthsader]

NOICE

[FioBC]

love it.

[DrunkenTomTom]

tl;dw

[pidza21]

perfect

[jadeevalley]

wonderful message..cool way of delivering it :) thanks for posting.

[TheDoveLady]

How clever, and how true. We can reverse the direction we are headed. Well said.

[davidpaul8]

awesome. thank you for this inspiring vid...well done. We all can change.

And yes no more Divorce. We need to learn to love eachother. How can countrys be at peace if we cannot even be at peace with the other parent of our children. God give us strength.

Peace, Love, and Light surrounds us all.

dp

[hotnindza]

It's not about divorce. It's about diminishing the family as the ONLY natural way of human grouping. States, politics, companies, organisations exist for only couple of thousands of years. BUT all around you is "leave family problems at the door of your job", "I don't need husband for having a child", "I want to purse the career". People get alienated, thus getting enslaved more easily, because nobody trusts noone anymore.

'Divide et impera' at it's best.

And yes-I'm not religious...

[davidpaul8]

Divide et impera at the family level is what is happening, and the problem. These days it is hard to have a family dinner together with two working parents. at least 40% of my friends are divorce. And my wife is hinting at it too.How do you keep married if you never see each other because of work. We must give a children a solid foundation of love. By the way I never knew my real father.

You do not have to be religious to be spiritual...and do not wait until you are dieing or sick friend. dp

[8cent8]

i refuse tO believe that i cannOt change MY wOrld(my SELF)

That's aLL yOu need:)

[MaturusTV]

very good

[MatthewMattson]

They Shyamalan-ed that!

[jaysanghera]

positive comment

[MatthewMattson]

Great comment!

[jaysanghera]

I try to be as concise as possible =p

[kevanu]

brilliant.

[buiboy98]

tats a cool trick

[finabuddy]

lame, it was right the first time around.

[Smileyheno]

Some good points, But you'll never live in a Country of your making ?

If you where you would not be making these video's ?

[SteakAndKidneyJesus]

nearly a good point, but your command of the English language is somewhat lacking.

[JimmyShmizmarPants]

That was amazing!

[SuperStickmanML13]

Awesome!

[eyemamermaid]

Brilliant!!

[JPinLA]

the only way to prevent environmental destruction is to freeze or decrease our population. forced sterilization and state-indoctrinated homosexuality are humanity's only hope.

[phoenix1421]

...

although sterilizing the bottom %50 of the population by intelligence is a good idea.

[AustinAlloveR]

wow!

[bobbob191]

Nice nice

[Q9R42]

Interesting (:

[sooriyah007]

So true

[brojectiot]

Quite awesome.

[Ericschapira]

Was this narrated by David suzuki's daughter? Sounds like her voice?

[akadir]

Great vid!

But she made a mistake in the vid when reading the script backwards... can anyone spot it? lol

[tekdemon]

Well if you're self employed I guess it just means you're not a narcissist.

[grikeroth]

What a load of bullshit.

[nobelty]

wow amazing

[igoraalquimista]

Amazing

[millinthewind]

two thumbs up!!!!

[oklahoma]

That was beautiful!

[fraseryt]

sure. cute.

[JapsEye2]

Pretty interesting. Superlatives like "Beautiful" and "remarkable" may be a bit strong though.

[JimpleFish]

Neither of those are superlatives...

[howitzer86]

I fave this only because the reverse reading part is pretty neat.

[robertoszwas]

Awesome :)

[Semach4444]

I love the comments.

Retarded video.

[Euphorlc]

what is this shit i hate all of you

[2007TypeR]

yeah fuck this bollocks.

[GoTeamScotch]

Very good video. beautiful.

The aarp logo at the end kind of took me by surprise though

[spacepirate725]

Boring.

[KolYma89]

awesome

[TwilightElk]

My goodness, this is one of the most beautiful videos I've seen in a very long time.

[slowboiled]

This is absolutely brilliant. Thank you for sharing.

[techcow]

OH...I C WAT U DID THAR.

[laphammikeb]

This is truly remarkable. Thank you...

[MuNkaPOtaMuS]

did anyone else feel like this narrative came from the XBL game Braid? The forwards and backwards of it just made it feel exactly like the kind of thing that game would have.

[michaelzda]

instant warm moshy feelin : )

[AntiHypocrisy]

First reading is a reality, the second reading is a wishful thinking.

[laphammikeb]

It has to start somewhere...

[ac3jc]

thats not true, to me the second reading is reality and the first is hypothetical. it just depends on how people live their lives. it might work for you or it might not

[Mariekesone]

Loved the Reverse....Awesome video:-)

[FuckTheCHP]

Fuck life, fuck this world and fuck everything. You can't be lost when there is nothing to find.

[anon12010]

bitch do u actually believe the shit ur spewing?

[CarcPazu]

It reminds me of the old joke letter from a nun to a priest. When you read it it's a normal letter, when you skip a line it's a nasty sex induced letter...

[JCMac777]

Very clever, I mean the reversing text and narration trick. But it would take more than a Youtube video to inspire me or any of the idiots commenting on this vid.

[RearAccessDenied]

xD

hehehe

[GetDrunkAndWatch]

not too bad for a commercial.

[Ialliac]

very clever...however, i think the first pass had it right

[Yattutroll]

I call bullshit.

[Tom2Die]

did they take away the comment preview thing?  shame...

[bigmac573]

Are you even human?

[FullMetalllll]

i say bullshit

[mariokartfever]

I can ride my bike with no handlebars

[marktrade88]

This is old and trite. You know what's good for the environment? Free markets. You know what's good for family? Free markets. You know what's good for our generation? Take a guess.

[lazylink]

lol externality fail, stfu you bigot

[revco68]

If you were born after 1980, do yourself a favor and commit suicide, there will be nothing left for you.

[maddawg579]

Yawn. Another meaningless 'change the world for the better' campaign that will be forgotten in a month. These messages won't change anything. Sorry to say it, but it's true. Society moves way to fast for a small group of people to stop it in its tracks and change it completely.

[FuriousGeorge1985]

yawn

[coolnet12see]

I know wierd, and yeah that it pretty wierd even at my standards! i will now cry myself to sleep..good night ;D

[killergift1130]

awesome, that is what i would call L33T

[zinazina11]

wow.. very nice, i loved it

[vi3wtub3]

Guess, it sounds gay..and it may be gay..but my eyes welled up listening to the last half of the video.

But truly..Can this happen? Or this girl is dreaming of an Utopia she created in her mind.?

[LatestUFOSightings]

Only poorfags deny that money makes people happy.

[achimendez]

And only chanfags use words like "poorfags." And it's a known scientific fact that 100% of chanfags live in their mothers' basements and lie about it.

BUT YOU'RE RICH IN INTERNETS!

[LatestUFOSightings]

WTF are you talking about?

Chanfags??

I never said I'm rich. I'm just not a hypocrite who says money isn't A LOT when it actually is.

I've noticed that most people who "don't care" about money are poor. The same way that people who say that hot girls have shit personalities are usually with an uggo.

It's just the "I can't have it so it sucks mentality".
