It's Time To Think Different

[matthewr3680]

I cannot wait for the documentary to be out. To be a part of it what kind of involvement will we be in?

[a7x4lifejake]

0:15 who is that?

[Pehalex]

@a7x4lifejake Dustin Lance Black, during his acceptance speech at the 2009 oscars for "MILK" :)

[Rus10Love]

Wow. Great video. It's not often people actually even know who Bayard Rustin is. Very nice.

[MercedAFBrat77]

Excellent, excellent. The voices aren't drowned by the background music, as on the "What Homosexuality is Not" video.

[Zoombus]

If you didn't know, the whole think is a callback to an old Apple advertising campaign, and if you say it should be "Think Differently," look at the Wikipedia article called "Think Different" under the "Grammar" header.

Ranting aside, very inspiring video :)

[wollam11]

I can ignore Dan Choi. I've grown pretty good at it.

[seandcat420]

Who is the guy at 0:03?

[psfanboy1609]

[olivevonwiggles]

Is this Steve jobs' poem. Great vid by the way. Truely inspiring

[awesomeskier12345]

OK YOU KNOW KNOW WHAT FUCK THE TITLE AND JUST ENJOY THE VIDEO. i know i did.

[bestpersoneyoueverme]

everytime i see this video i begin to believe again.

[DanielSBurnett]

I'm Daniel Burnett. Today I can proudly say I AM WHO I AM. I'm from a small town in the heart of the Bible belt. Growing up my parents and church drilled into me that I was wrong for being who I am, gay. I'm now 21 living in Colorado and I'm proud to say that "Thinking Different" has changed my life. I have missed out on being roommates with people because of my sexual orientation and have been made to feel like I wasn't even a real person, but today is new and I'm proud to say that I AM GAY!

[ribchwi]

@DanielSBurnett Congrats Dan!

[raplyon]

great message - thank you for providing such a great forum

[sdpgubser]

I love the Crazy ones!!!

[HOLEBITV]

AWESOME INITIATIVE !!

Steven from HOLEBITV ♥♂♂,♀♀♥

[stefanmmclean]

The grammar isn't relevant. It's his version of the brilliant Apple advert.

Love it.

[TheFreedom4love]

Youre sooo hot Ryan!I love your lips^^

[ThatsMeDan12]

sorry im against gayssss

[bimtob05]

THINK DIFFERENT IS AN APPLE COMMERCIAL FROM THE 80's Has no one seen this?

[paulpittsburgh]

Another wonderful video Ryan! Think Different, Love Different, Be Different THERE!!!

[ximulady]

@ameralhemaidi

Go fuck yourself, crybaby.

Closeminded people just show that they don't even know what they're talking about.Hope you die alone.

[advancedplacement1]

Ahh! People need to share this like they did with "The Gay Rights Movement." That one went viral! This one can, too. Only with everyone's help.

[tigerandcookie]

All your videos really make me think about everything

[MattiAlwaysHappy]

I think it's call think different 'cause it's basically saying "Think: Different"

[Wamut1]

@quiver456 lol i'm more worried about the font. it's the same font Apple Computers used to use in the 90s/early 2000s. It's makes this video look like a retro Apple ad! hahahahaha!!

[sagexxstewart]

Amazing Video(:

[DerAdventurer]

America is a country built on freedom and equality. I simply DO NOT get how this nation can still stand against gay people, black people and jewish people. Its racism should be ZERO.

GO FOWARD guys! I think this is the way to fight for the American Dream, FREEDOM and EQUALITY.

[superfunkastic]

Love it!

[Juan14356]

8 homophobes secretly liked this . . . ;) lol

[themonsunxXx]

didn't they get over their goal though?

[ealtmayer]

I love it. It's very heartwarming. Best of luck on your documentary <3

[ImABieberholic]

Eventhought I'm "straight". Your Videos inspire me ! :) <3

[TwinStarMonopol]

So heartwarming

[PrimeGodist]

*speechless*



[bestpersoneyoueverme]

It's like you read my heart all through high school I was the one crazy enough to

Think I could change the world and I would get put down by others for reaching so high in life. This video just made me that much more determine! -:) I can not wait for the whole thing.

[BJCGaca]

I am gay and I find all of your videos insulting.

[Nakaifma]

0:17 - 0:20 Ahhhhhhhhhh It's BAYARD RUSTIN!!!! I want a husband like him so bad!!!! Dr. Martin Luther King's Movement would have not been if it wasn't for him... Thank You Bayard Rustin for being a Openly Monumental Homosexual who said no to all obstacles & overcame all adversities. BAYARD RUSTIN The Great!!!!

[asifwekere]

Powerful!

[clamby12341]

holy cow chills this entire video cant wait for the full thing!

[Artbug]

OMG! You reached your goal on KickStarter! Congrats! I can't wait for this documentary!!!

[JustinTynne]

<3

[lifeglee123]

I love this so much.

[jsweet83]

simple and beautiful

[tesshunterrox]

Ryan thanks to you im starting something. I refuse to stand for the pledge not in disrespect to those who died but to start a revelation the lgbt community is always being put down and until there is equality for ALL men and women i wont stand for the pledge.

[jeffe6887]

Ryan you have already changed the world! To change the world, you have to believe in yourself and who you are, then those around you see and believe and begin to think differently...they too become the change.

[OverTheRainbow1310]

I honestly cried when i saw lady gaga. she means everything to me. and you ryan- are an inspiration. im straight but i fight for gay rights, and in highschool; you get bullied for that. but its bettter to fight for whats right<3

[JayyVonMonroeFan]

You will change the world one day Ryan :)

[xsoccerdork]

For those thinking that it's Think Different[LY], "Think Different" gets the point across, is simpler, easier to remember, and can connote multiple meanings through use of the word 'different' eg outcasts, crazies, rebels, heroes, or simply being the word different and choosing to see past society's long enforced* opposition to gay marriage. I don't know for a fact, but I think Ryan chose this title knowingly.

[quiver456]

@xsoccerdork Then it should be Think: Different

...Just being grammatically correct!

[soyakujinjashi]

@xsoccerdork That's very likely. The very notion of his slogan is crazy but revolutionary, so it incites a positive thinking about change. :3 Good elaboration!

[xsoccerdork]

@soyakujinjashi thanks(:

[HotMissa]

This is amazing and powerful. I can't wait to see the finished documentary.

Hugs

[lawyercaballero]

Ryan your videos always are amazing. I love your work

[emosarah7]

you never cease to amaze me ryan.

[quiver456]

I am gay and I find all of your videos inspiring, motivating, and empowering.

However, one of my biggest pet peeves is bad grammar.

Correct English would have it be "Think Differently" rather than "Think Different"...

"Think: Different" would also be correct.

Other than that, great video! :D

[Velociactor]

@quiver456 I thought the same thing! Hahaha but I could overlook the mistake with such a great video!

[AndyTheHottie]

@quiver456 its actually good grammar since Different is capitalized it means it is a noun, not an adverb :)

[xsoccerdork]

@quiver456 You're right haha.

[rg0057]

Unfortunately, the defect is in an off-the-shelf component used in this assembly.

But consider this: "Think Different" is not only an instruction, but also an example.

[eskullz666]

What seems like such a simple video carries a strong message and helpful message.

[atdawntv]

That. Was. Amazing.

[MclovinSaysHi]

You are just amazing.

[fortiter26]

Thank you Ryan, it's people like you, who make the world a better, safer place for the rest of us, gay AND straight alike...

[blackishroze]

I am seriously so excited for this... I cannot wait. It's going to be fantastic! ♥

[MrYishay24]

You are just an inspiration to me and to all of man kind. I am glad I lived in your era to be a witness of how much you are helping the world become a better place, a bit at a time. Thank you for everything. <3

[Naegelin4u]

Great video it is time :)

[Shawncherchio]

I think its funny hes now making crazy out to be a good thing, Hitler was crazy should we kill jews?

[noone2975]

@Shawncherchio stfu.

[sobelou]

@Shawncherchio You can answer your question yourself.... Is one who thinks different pushing to move the world forward, or to move it backward? In what direction was Hitler pushing the world, according to you?? And in which direction is someone who clamors for equal rights for all pushing the world? I'm sure you have the amswers to that....

[Shawncherchio]

@sobelou there both pushing backwards. Its not about equal rights, we all have the same rights! marriage is between one man and one woman. Gay people have those same rights as we do, we both can marry a person of the opposite sex. I don't hate gay's, but I do believe its not moving us forward as a country.

[NickSparkss]

@Shawncherchio Marriage used to be between one white woman and one black woman. Obviously things have changed. And things need to change again.

Sure, I could marry a woman, but being gay, I obviously have no interest in doing so. I want to marry my partner, my male partner.

I, as a gay man, do not have the right to marry my partner, who is a legal consenting adult. This is unacceptable, as the government has no right to restrict what two consenting adults do.

[Shawncherchio]

@NickSparkss If Marriage has nothing to do with the government, than it must have been made that way by God, since it is why would you want to be married?

You just don't get it. I'm a male, I can get married to a female, or I could be gay,

your a male, you can get married to a female or you can be gay. it doesn't get any fairer than that. just cause you or i have a right doesn't mean we have to use it! 

[NickSparkss]

@Shawncherchio Marriage has everything to do with the government. To be married, you need a marriage license, which is issued by your state's government, to be legally married. A legal marriage license has absolutely nothing to do with religion.

And I assure you, I do get it. It is unconstitutional for the government to restrict a group of people's right to be married, or adopt children, or donate blood and bone marrow.

This is a problem of inequality across the board.

[sobelou]

@Shawncherchio What kind of childish logic is that? A person who's gay, by definition, will not feel attracted to a person of the opposite sex, so what's the worth of telling them that they have the right to marry someone they're not attracted to? Every human being should have the right to share their lives with someone they can love, and I'm specifically talking about two adults. Anyone who has a life shouldn't care about the lives of others that strongly.

[lemontree357]

Beautiful words by Steve Jobs, RIP

[ixlovexjeffreexstarx]

I love your videos

[DevinH]

I lost the seriousness whenever Lady gaga poped up....

[Joanlockheart]

@DevinH Why? Lady Gaga does so much for the gay community. How do you not see why she would be in here?

[DevinH]

@Joanlockheart oh I didnt know this was aimed for the gay community, totally lost the point, then yes she does fit in there! I thought it was on political views and generally about justice and....u know what? I think Im just a little bit tired the times is late here in Sweden I didnt really think clear... let's pretend I never made a comment abt it ;)

[QueerIsHere]

Here I go again im crying! Ur so good at making theses! much love

[KarelGladys]

@QueerIsHere I have the same thing but the first video was the worst for me, I watched it so many times and I still cry.

[SMyDJesus]

Apple's going to have your balls using their slogan.

[deromo1]

this is good expected better but i still love it =)

[MerryGiraffemas]

He made this video similar to Apple's "Think Different" video on purpose, guys... It's to show that if we could make amazing changes in the world of technology, then we can do the same with society and helping support the LGBT community.

[1691christian]

i love it and i really wish people started thinking diffrent

[ZoeCaldera]

I haven't had that "oh my gosh" feeling go through me in ages, but You Ryan are Genius.

Thank you so much for shairing this with the world Your the one thats gonna make the biggest difference. :)

[rykapexxy]

[EryahJames88]

YAYAYAYAY

[ThunderousWake]

I don't think there are words enough for all this <3

[ThePureLegend95]

/watch?v=nqOsTBMlMeY

We are just the few creatures that shows that the human being is a beautiful creature, it's just so sad that many of our own race don't accept us...

[dantorp11]

This is amazing, thank you<3

[nekosensi]

Keep it up! You are making history :)

[jwo92911]

awesome

[JoeThat1Guy]

yeah lady gaga is crazy lol :D

[sdsteele11]

Amazing! Keep leading the fight! So happy to see that you are raising a lot of money. The documentary will be brilliant!

[ECTHELIONjr]

0:05!!! Anthony Saldaña!!! LOVE YOU!!!... and of course I'm thinking differently! =D

[totally0beast]

i really love the videos you make and everything and I know your a dude... But I get kind of sad that you mostly highlight the gays and not really the lesbians....

[Booyakasha011]

@totally0beast you have a point, but the word "gay" can be applied to both men and women

and btw, this isn't just in favor of the gay community, this is in favor of any individual that is discriminated for harmless reasons

[depfox]

Great video well done

[DellerName]

Damn, someone donated 10k

[TheSeanGT]

something about this guy bothers me. Good effort with all this though.

[tarighd]

@TheSeanGT What do you mean?

[iluvmusic2234]

who is at 0:17 ???

[natemorey]

@iluvmusic2234 I could be wrong but it loks alot like "Jean Baptiste Maunier"

[MrDamnSHt]

@MrHankeyy Well, they are in the suggestions. He's using a Mac :) Double promotion!

[MrDamnSHt]

That's right.... making a change in this world is not crazy. We can adapt to new norms just like we've adapted to technology.

[emmakinzy1991]

I have one question how do you feel about those who don't necessarily agree with you. They don't hate you or have anything against you, but they simply do not agree. I did not ask in an offensive way I'm just curious. By the way this video was awesome.

[MrHankeyy]

Do people know that this video is almost completely the same as apples "Think different" commercial? Or am I missing the point?

[tytheeman20]

Another video that gave me goosebumps

[MonsterLizx]

Gave me chills, this is amazing!

[ClaudYeung]

ly

[LakeAvalon]

this is just.. beautiful.. :')

[KarelGladys]

I know you're crazy enough to change the world!!!

[roelvantoorn]

Apple, right?

[maiaadriano]

@roelvantoorn My first reaction to that line, too. Vaguely similar font, too, I hope Ryan doesn't get in trouble with Apple's legal team for that.

Otherwise, great clip.

[svenypoodles]

Only 39 days left to raise negative 100,000 dollars! lol

[britsluver]
