 what's going on guys today i'm just going to make a quick boomer vlog uh this won't be in my backyard i'm just going to record this in the car today is a federal holiday here in the united states this memorial day and of course a lot of people are getting together cooking out barbecuing things like that and you know i was with some friends and family today and this is something that i often observe anytime i'm really around any group of people is why do we lie and by we i mean all of us why do human beings lie constantly we lie all the time uh from from the very moment you actually begin a conversation with somebody it almost always begins with a lie when you meet somebody on the street and you ask them how are you today that's a lie you really are not interested in how they're doing right and they're gonna respond oh i'm doing great and almost no one is really doing great you know and then he's gonna you know so he lies in response and then he asks you how are you doing today and then you of course like a machine you just robotically spit out you know you're lying that you're doing fine today but really no one is ever really just okay or doing great you know we all have problems in life but you know if you actually said oh uh you know today i feel fatigued i feel depressed i feel a little down in the dumps you know you start laying your problems onto somebody that just asked you how are you doing today it's going to frighten them right because they're not going to be prepared for that kind of honesty it's going to scare them so much that they may not know how to respond to your response and a matter of fact they may just quit talking to you all together they may never ask you how you're doing again if you actually answered in a truthful way and i just like it's weird we've we've programmed ourselves to lie and that's just an example but you know when people are getting together and talking about their lives you know things they do they always exaggerate sometimes it's just flat out live people talk about the the things they do you know in their daily routine and things because they haven't seen a certain friend or family member a long time so they make up this this person they invent this new person it's not really them they're talking about right is this false ego this false personality that comes out they just whole hog just invent this new them right this it's not even them that they're even talking about and they sit there and make up this person and tell all of these lies and everyone that's around them knows they're lying but they don't call them out on their bs right because if you call them out on their bs for one thing it would really shock that person that hey i know you're lying i know everything you just it's bs quit lying you know it's gonna cause them to get angry it's gonna be like nobody does that right nobody in real life ever calls people out on their bs it's just weird i know this is a weird topic on a holiday where people are getting together it's a happy time but it's just you know it's one of those things we need to be conscious all of us everyone everyone watching this video and including the person making this video we need to be conscious of not lying to others but really lying to ourselves like if you were a third party observer and you could see the way you are talking the way you're acting because we also lie with just actions we become a new person right we put on a show every time we're around other people to make them think something we're not and it's just odd it's just a really odd thing think about all of the things that people lie about in life the things you lie about in life the things i lie about in life and somebody asks you about your your work you're gonna tell them everything's fine you're doing great at your job they're they're about to promote you and you know you could have got fired last week that's the kind of things we do or if you're talking about sports you play or a workout routine or something you're gonna tell people that you know you're doing just incredible things you know at whatever sport or game you're playing you know your hobbies you're gonna you're gonna exaggerate and it's one of those things you see this all the time in other aspects of life i see like people that are into like politics especially political activists the people that are out there trying to change the world right and they're fighting against various things fighting against racism or misogyny or transphobia or whatever it happens to be you know there's some social cause that they want to go out there and they're going to change the world they're going to change people's minds but they never really work on themselves right because we all have this weird false personality right and if some of these people actually focused on changing themselves which is the only person ultimately you can change you can go out there and try to save the world right change the world gonna change hearts and minds but you can't control what other people think you can't control what other people are you can only control what you are and a lot of these people that are out there that are trying to be these activists and trying to change the world and we're putting on a show that think they want people to think that they're out there fighting the fight right and they're a good person many of these people that's that's that's false right it's the same thing these people that are pretending at the family cookie out you know different aspects of life a lot of these people are also really fake people they don't really care about the causes they're fighting for they only care about how it makes them look in society in terms of you know how their friends and family view them they don't really care what they're actually out there promoting another area of life people lie about is religion you see a lot of people that claim to be religious spiritual people you see a lot of people for example christianity being the biggest faith here in the us you see a lot of people that claim to be christian that aren't really christian and by a lot of people i mean of all the tens of thousands hundreds of thousands of people i've ever encountered in life that called themselves a christian maybe five of them were really christian as far as they actually acted as a christian like like they actually read the bible read the words of Jesus and you know like Jesus of the bible would he condone your actions as a christian for 99.9 percent of you if you identify as a christian no of course not there's a lot of things you do in life that don't really adhere to the tenets of christianity and that's the thing you know so many of us we we claim to be things we're not you see this online social media those of us free and open source software in the linux community so many people in the free and open source software community are out there also trying to change the world with free and open source software right they many of these people online are very fake especially if you know some of the people in real life that are also online the people that it's it's weird you're a completely different person it's it's almost like you're acting it's one of the things i i have to be careful about as a youtuber i try to be very genuine i try to just be myself on camera a lot of youtubers though purposely tried not to be themselves on camera they imagine that they're uninteresting nobody'll like them nobody'll like the real me that that's scary right that's a very scary thing and i think that's why not just youtubers lie on camera pretend to be something different i think that's why people in real life pretend to be something different they're scared to actually be themselves because the real you people may not like it right that that man that that's a scary thing when you think about it but you know at some point you have to be you you have to be truthful in life because if you're not truthful if it's not the real you in life then everything in life that happens to you it's all going to be accidental right it's just the law of accidents right because everything you do is because you're never really the real you all the cause and effect of your life it's not really directed by the real you right everything that happens in your life it's just accident right it just happens where if it's the real you you can really direct where life is going as it's kind of the the old you know is it fate or is it your own will well if it's not really you directing everything then obviously it can't be your own will right it's all fate it's all karma it's all accident it's all luck bad luck good luck whatever it happens to be right you know at some point we just have to be who we really are anyway boomer vlog over guys peace
