The very American tradition of eugenics, of course. Today we’re connecting the dots between these headlines and America’s sordid history.

    I never really understood the whole sydney Sweeney hype, she's not even that attractive imo, she's very generic blondie, nothing special or unique about her at all lol

    Eugenics is definitely alive and funded by the government . PLANED PARENTHOOD was founded and deeply rooted in
    Eugenics. the goal to eliminate the popula
    tion of what they consider "undesirables" May have been rebranded. But the goal was always the same.

    This is a very strong take, but well researched. You are right to point out the eugenic undertones in the ad and its context in western and US history in particular. But I feel there is a lot of nuance in this situation (especially on SS and AE's side) that gets bulldozed over by this aggressive stance. Would be interesting to see how an equally sophisticated analysis may counter your points made here. But well done on another strongly argued video 👏

    You need to acknowledge the role of Margaret Sanger and Planned Parenthood in the Negative Eugenics movement in America. She decided that it was better that poor women have abortions, rather than support them in the rearing of their children. Margaret Sanger, “the most urgent problem today is how to limit and discourage the over-fertility of the mentally and physically defective.” Margaret Sanger, "consequences of breeding from stock lacking human vitality always will give us social problems and perpetuate institutions of charity and crime."

    Offering no options but abortion to mothers in need is a more palatable form of eugenics. How can a woman truly be free to chose whether or not to have a child, when our society places sever economic burdens on motherhood and lifts not a finger to help poor mothers care for their children?

    Leeja this video is so invigorating, a wake up call and an enlightenment about how this country is going into the most evil it’s ever been in history.

    Thank you. All of this serves to shift the culture and to expand what we’re willing to accept as valid ideologies in the zeitgeist. Dogwhistles have been especially effective in shifting the underlying culture because there is an inherent plausible deniability in subliminal messaging. They get to garner numbers behind a once fringe ideology while convincing the alarmed masses that their intuition is misguided.

    But there’s plenty of room for engagement, still, and you nailed it in this video. The weakness of this strategy, especially in a modern context, lies in the longstanding historical pattern of these exact same ideologies being pushed through these exact same methods of messaging. This strategy of dogwhistling our way into far-right culture is all too transparent these days. At this point, the masses have honed their pattern recognition skills regarding politics and culture, and we’re unwilling to ignore the signs.

    16:26 as a professional in marketing I love that you use the term rebrand because I have been saying this for at least five years that everything horrible in our society right down to slavery still exist. It's just been rebranded. We need to wake up.

    9:30 idiots was a psychological term used to describe retardation. Everyone's up in arms about the word retard but yet we call each other. Idiots every day. Food for thought.

    I was think about the lives of all who are sterilized and not only is there political power taken. Not only is the future they may want taken. Also the are probable going into menopause as young women and the hormone imbalance that would cause.

    I have a degree in Disability Studies. I had hardly learned about eugenics until my classes in this program. It is a shame that we are not taught much about one of the darkest chapters of American history. Now people online are insisting it's not eugenics to say disabled people shouldn't have kids, and even defending this ad. Thank you for talking about this (I've seen your other videos on this too)

    I live in South America. People in the USA don't realize that has always been the most racist and fascist country second only to nazi Germany. USA invented eugenics and applied it first. Racial segregation. Exacerbated patriotism and nationalisation of economic production. All politics that Hitler copied for his country. And those fascist traits are found in every layer of society, in every aspect of people's lives. The USA always looked more like a fascist capitalist democracy, a democratic twist to nazi Gernay or fascist Italy which were the same but totalitarian regimes. Where you have a "pledge of alliance", cult to national flag, where you are hated for your race and can get killed over it, reservations for natives, which are no more than glorified concentration camps.

    Lord almighty, you people are so soft. Please get a real job and understand that this is manufactured outrage. Spoiled, entitled, jealous, angry Karens, all of you … This level of insecurity is pathological. You need professional help and Jesus.

    Note: Nearly all, if not all, of the psychiatric research that these practices used is classified pseudoscience and is mostly pushed by the prison complex. One might say, "No way!," but this is America…

    I need to move. I don’t want to be in this country when it’s destroyed.

    I am not religious, but there are stories in the Bible that resonate with me. Like Moses and how he freed people from Slavery. That is a beautiful story, no one deserves to be enslaved.

    But there is another story, a story foretelling the destruction of these two cities named Sodom and Gahmora. These cities were destroyed because they were corrupt, and God couldn’t find a single decent person in either. Hell on Earth, filth, evil, and all.

    When will yt people learn as a whole. Knowing history is so important to not get scam. Isn't it interesting that yt American men went to war against Hitler and died but Hitler was inspired by so many racist ideas from America. Literally America was doing similar evil deeds that Germans were doing, YET the elites sent yt American men to die for the very thing America was doing to blk and brown people, plus jews in America. Its all a game but yt players don't seem to believe they are just a tool in their game. Being white isn't enough to be part of their fascists club. Classism people. Being use again as a tool to breed is also low vibrational. What a joke. Desperate for validation. Sidney w.e her name is a pick me. Desperate just like her character on that teen show. As someone said racism is very expensive to be. You go against humanity well being as a whole, you go against yourself.
