'Well... They're happy' 'I can't speak for all tribes and members, but I can guess a lot of them would be a happier if they didn't have to worry about food, diseases, being bullied into suffering painful initiation rites, wars with other tribes and other such 'occupational' hazards. I don't want to force anyone into anything I'm just saying that If I was allowed to choose a way of life for myself from the ones I'm aware of It'd be TVP.' 'But you can't live like you say, you need money!'
''Well, often, very useful knowledge can be gained as a side effect of scientific research that as of yet has no known tangible use and a love of knowledge is healthy. Anyway what's the point in sustaining a society that has no purpose other than to sustain its self? The acquisition of knowledge gives human society a point and goals to aim for.' 'Ooo you're evil!' 'I'm not saying bomb Amazonian tribes because they're pointless! I'm just saying our society is better off with goals to aim for.'
'If all the jobs are took over by machines no one will be able to pay the rent!' 'No, Nana, there is no rent' ''What, so everyone's on the dole?' 'No, no ones on the dole, you don't need any dole, because there's no money.' 'No money? Then no one will be able to pay for anything!' 'No the goods you need are produced and distributed by an automatic process.' 'But then what's people going to do? They're going to feel useless...' 'Well, I'd educate myself and do research.' 'What good'll that do!?'
Wow, thanks for kind words I'm flattered. I'm a pretty bashful person so I'd be kind of shy about my voice used directly....but what could be good is a really well produced re-creation with different voices...maybe actors. It's perfect for a proper animated cartoon, sort of like the ones he had in moving forward.
We need to get this to Jacque or Joe and get it into the next Z film, it might just be the game changer that demonstrates the fallacies and lack of fluidity behind the arguments of many of TVP's naysayers. Honestly, well done.
This is exactly what its like to try and explain a resource based economy to people. Most people have a very hard time looking outside of their current social paradigm.
Excellent! I've been promoting the ideas now of the Zeitgeist Movement for 40 years, and the neolithic man was presenting the basic limits of his cultural insanity as the people do now in response to the ZM, I used to use the slaves of the 14th Century in the same way, but yours is actually a better example of cultural mindblindness.
Extremely envious of your concentrated mode of thinking. Funny how I can have these conversations in my head but trying to convey those to other with the same mode of thinking as our animated friend here is taxing at most points. A toast to you my friend :). I'm coming to you with questions next time I have any haha.
Funny how perspective is so obvious in pictures, and so invisible in life :) You successfully brought living perspective into focus for some of us,at least. Great video.
Brilliant man, another thing they would've been amazed about is the internet. "You can talk to other tribes, really far away? Impossible! You have to walk long distances to talk to other tribes! And you still haven't proved that making the animals stay and the water coming to you is possible!" XD
Loved the ending... whats religion?... I guess your gonna find out all about that in about a few thousand generations, well good luck with that btw. Epic!
Brilliant creative-genius my friend, this is the kind of discussion we can get some traction with in raising the consciousness and co-operation of humanity. I don't normally make comments in You-tube, but I'll make an exception for this! Oneness
Couzin, this is f'ing brilliant!!! I love this. Damn well done to illustrate the funny arguments we get all the time. Change the time frame and wow...the same arguments...and just as ridiculous! Fraggin awesome! Love it!
I've been sitting on this idea for a long time, cos I studied hunter-gatherers. Every time I heard the more popular arguments about TVP and an RBE, I just imagined that person going back in time and explaining their system to a hunter-gatherer. Another thing that I didn't include in the video, is that hunter-gatherers would have considered massive ownership to be very messed up.
@Neanderthalcouzin Seriously, this is genius. This is a Game, Set, Match video. Done. Any jackass that argues against the very simple and basic message you've illustrated here is a complete idiot. Period. I think you included many solid points.
@SimpleSceptic cheers man, I miss you too, to be honest I really wanna visit Europe (but have done for years), get to travel around and see a bunch of folks.
@ChelevSaRa lol, cheers. I hope it can be a useful example for others to use, cos ever since I heard all the accusations represented in the video I started imagining if the douche nozzles who said it to me had to go back in time and justify their current life to an ancient hunter-gatherer. I hope this sums up the point.
@voiceofreason467 That's what he does. It's embarrassing. I took loads of time to respond to all of his points, but eventually he ended up just repeating the same stuff, like a broken record. I told him it was kind of weird and he made it clear he just wanted to get on my nerves. He did the same thing with Doug. I completely addressed his camp thing and if you want, I can PM you my exact response to him.
