Zeitgeist: Moving Forward

[KimmyCharmeleon]

Officially on YouTube now. I went and saw this on the 18th with a friend, had no idea it went for so long.
What is good with this is that in some parts it's kinda funny, and the people that give talks have their names and affiliations listed below them (hey credibility!).
There's four parts.
Part one: Human nature and the effect of the environment on genes (science, studies)
Part two: Social pathology (economic stuff)
Part three: Project Earth (how to make a resource-based economy)
Part four: Rise (politics)

buffering this now, very much looking forward to watching this.

doubt anyone else here will bother, because it's just a "conspiracy theory" film... and even though it fully cites it's sources it's wrong, completely wrong (decided mainly by those who haven't seen it)...

 

[KimmyCharmeleon]

It's so not a conspiracy film, it's based on perfectly reasonable inferences backed up by scientific evidence and shit.

of course it's a conspiracy film! It's a conspiracy film because people that haven't watched it say so.

OH my god I had no idea anyone else here had even heard of Zeitgeist. My boyfriend introduced me to and we've watched the first hour of the new video, watching the rest this weekend. We both have a great interest in it.

 

[KimmyCharmeleon]

Glad we have someone else who's interested

A little excerpt from the movie, the irrefutable philosophy behind a resource based economy:

And here's the ending haha!

[edgray]

yeah the ending I can't quite fathom to be honest. Does he actually think this will happen? that this is the way it will go down? Or is it a metaphor for a much slower process?

 

[KimmyCharmeleon]

Some guy tried to argue against the movie, and this is what PJ had to say:

[edgray]

man that guy came up with some thoroughly appalling criticisms. Really poor, intellectually vapid and a lot of it pretty irrelevant.

 

[edgray]

the more I watch this the more laughable this guy is.

 

[edgray]

ha! this guy is ignoring reality and arguing on purely abstract terms.

 

[KimmyCharmeleon]

Haha, it's a fallacy to argue on "imagined" things rather than reality lol.

 

[edgray]

Haha, it's a fallacy to argue on "imagined" things rather than reality lol.

yeah it's lovely talking about "voluntary" exchanges in base terms of a capitalist system, but the reality is never that simple.

 

[edgray]

apparently this guy is a philosopher...

and yet all the points go whooosh above the guys head...

 

[edgray]

ha!! check out a website about this guy:

[edgray]

man this guy has some weird opinions on stuff:

Molyneux on musicians:

I have a huge amount of disdain and contempt for mere manual dexterity and competence. If a robot can be programmed to do it, it ain’t a big f**king deal.

:24:
