Isn’t Indias relative success based on the cast system. Which established a very high IQ cast with millions of members due to 1.4 billion people. The certainly progress the country while the 82 IQ average explains the slums
Well this is interesting, before experts said India is poor because of caste system. Now they still have it and are prospering. What a shallow analysis. With that big population and country there must be infinite amount of details in it.
With how it looks, many indian experts, I assume are from higher stratas of society mostly, want to go work in west, and many of them stay in some country, eg UK has sizable indian population. It is similar as china. But I wonder what effect this does to india in long run, "donating" some of their smartest, most hardworking people to foreign countries, or are numbers just so staggering it doesnt do much for that big country. This open set of questions how many highly smart, highly educated people a country or population actually needs, as there are lot of other things to do also.
Granted it seems nearly always happen, some kind of trend greed happens that it goes uncontrolled and after best of the brightest come rest until it collapses and people are fed up of certain country (like irish in US).... reaching some accepted equilibrium culturally.
Canada seems melting pot of conflicts.... chinese setup police stations there, lot of mafia gangs allover... lots of small scale things happening there. Will it erupt bigger at some point?
They even suspended issuing visas to Canadians after they were meekly called out for murdering a Canadian citizen in 🇨🇦. Meanwhile, Indians are pouring into 🇨🇦.
The belligerent prospect bullying the gluttonous former contender.
Just a quibble. The Indians landed on the FAR side of the moon, which is no darker than the face we always see. Congratulations to them for proving that it doesn't take bottomless reserves of capital for a space program.
Good piece. I think the Indian elite will speak English though, even more than the Romans spoke Greek.
It would be good from a Western perspective to see India get her act together. She is a far less alien civilisation than China. China may not want to destroy the West judging by my conversations with them, but may not be able to help doing so. A Great Aryan Empire, otoh....😂
I don't believe the Chinese are expansionist, the country is too big to manage now and made up of too many ethnic and regional groups. If you're worried about the death of Europe then the greatest risk is the US and it raids for wealth and resources in the Middle East, Africa and Eastern Europe. They are lining us up for a war with Russia at this very moment
China wants to dominate, not rule. It's not the 19th century and Great Powers no longer seek traditional empires. China wants a China dominated world just as the USA wants a US dominated world.
I agree on some level, though just copy pasting lot of things, mostly from US (which was other way round prior WW2 in many ways) is hardly good for any region. Lining up comes directly from that, too big temptation using that opportunity if it presents itself. Though to keep in mind, US is dependent on europe economically, they wouldnt be as prosperous without this union. Russia aint the biggest problem but general unstable nature all around europe building up. Doesnt need rocket science to turn direction though. Everyone wants to trade, that is big leverage for EU.
Hi Ed I'm sure this video will be full of respectable points and I will watch it in full when I get back from work, but COME ON. You don't seriously believe this nonsense do you? Nobody has ever been to the moon, certainly not Indians!
Well, India has Bollywood, so it was about time that they got around to filming a local version of what Kubrick did for Apollo Project.. And technology much better for fakes nowawdays. Soon there will be an Indian Capricorn One-movie. - Just kidding...
Actually, Republic of Molvania was the first country to attempt a manned mission to the Moon, in 1963: The Splutfab rocket successfully took off and safely landed in Poland.
I didn't think Ed had it in him to make a video this bad. Another victim of the boomer truth regime. Mind you, and no ad hominem intended. He took the vaxx so has a misplaced trust in authority
The Moon is made of cheese, isn't it? One could mine it to make paneer. Or some duka walla could start a shop there. Maybe the guy from Simpsons? Thank you, come again...
India is not in the same position as the UK in 1900 or the US in 1950 it is a very bad position as is China and the US (to a lesser extent). India's population vastly exceeds its carrying capacity and so like China it is flopping around like a giant whale trying to feed itself and keep the country together. India is in a worse position than China because its population has some way to go before stabilising but better in terms of resource use per capita. Like all living systems at some point growth becomes a negative and eventually fatal and India is seriously flirting with a worst case outcome.
Any growth in average standard of living for India makes things worse from a resources point of view and any decrease in standard of living makes thing worse from a social point of view. India is stuck in an impossible problem that has no good solutions only solutions that are less bad. Of course if you have 1.4 (and soon to be 1.7) billion people a fraction of those people will be talented at STEM (and so you will have large numbers of STEM grads in absolute terms) but instead of using their brilliant STEM graduates to solve as many of their actual practical problems as possible (such as providing the basics to such a huge population) they waste them in flashy but useless projects like moon landings or they lose them to overseas companies. You can tell that India is not really on a good path by the numbers of Indians trying to migrate to the west.
India is a lot more Individually Selected than Mr. Dutton seems to be aware of. If you want to know what kinds of cultural messages India's elites are promoting, just look at Bollywood shows - extreme levels of feminism. They have lots of police shows where 50% of the police officers are female. And there is one show where the entire police force is female. In the shows, the police use beatings to get confessions out of suspects, and the shows show female police officers beating male suspects, but never show male police officers beating female suspects. And, Bollywood shows promote homosexuality and transexuality.
In other words, Bollywood promotes feminism at the same level as Hollywood. The last movie I watched had a female judge as a hero fighting against an "evil" male businessman. And females are equally represented across all jobs in the Bollywood shows/movies. Bollywood is run by fellow Asian-Indians, not Kevin MacDonald's infamous cohort.
As an aside, it’s quite convenient of you to let the “Indo-European derived Brahmans’” glory reflect upon the Europeans when it’s perceived as a positive, while its older narrative counterpart that was blamed for nothing but elitist corruption and evil discrimination will always be nothing but a subcontinental phenomenon for the same European imbeciles.
Bollywood and “popular” TV that you are pointing to are actually quite badly hated by the vast majority of the population of the country at the moment. Most of the latest big productions have failed miserably and the producers, directors, writers and even the actors involved in these projects can be found to constantly blame the “Hindu nationalists” for their failures. There is some truth to that claim too, but mostly it is just that the media that is used to represent the country is not really representative. The actually popular media is still very much group selected and promotes a positive vision for the country and the culture, but I don’t suppose a lot of it gets promoted outside of India.
I’m a very new subscriber here and am from India. You are correct about the nationalism and growing collective identity in India, even though our government is still trying to figure out how to bring back all the talented and intelligent people they have driven away over the years. It isn’t an easy problem to solve at all and yet I personally know many people that have left higher pay and cushier or flashier lifestyles to go back home just for the sake of being part of their heritage and essentially for group selected reasons. Granted that I have plenty of selection bias, but I am also witnessing quite a willful return to religion, tradition and social conservatism among fellow young Indians. The shallow and rather resentful sounding analyses of western people pointing to the “backward”-ness of my culture or religion or the “rigid caste system” narrative are clearly not enough to explain any of the things that are actually happening in the country at the moment. If any of the other subscribers are reading this, I invite you to put away your prejudice and actually investigate past the headlines.
There is no dark side of the moon and judging by the terrible photos I doubt they landed on it.
I'd also add we (Europe) have built the recent Mars Rover in Stevenage, Herts and it was all ready to launch on a Russian rocket in March this year but the Ukraine war put an end to that plan. They are now building a new lander, updating the rover and a new launch is planned in 2028 when the planets are again in the best position

It seems India is sending assassins to Canada to kill Sikhs. So obviously they quit caring about Anglo opinion.
Canada seems melting pot of conflicts.... chinese setup police stations there, lot of mafia gangs allover... lots of small scale things happening there. Will it erupt bigger at some point?

But yes, for now, India does still have the Caste System, thus protecting the Indo-European derrived Brahmans.
As an aside, it’s quite convenient of you to let the “Indo-European derived Brahmans’” glory reflect upon the Europeans when it’s perceived as a positive, while its older narrative counterpart that was blamed for nothing but elitist corruption and evil discrimination will always be nothing but a subcontinental phenomenon for the same European imbeciles.

They just lost contact with the rover
That's the end of that, half a dozen photos. Not one of the stars.
There is no dark side of the moon and judging by the terrible photos I doubt they landed on it.

Can China become Neo-Byzantium?
We need a Jaspreet on the moon!
