and as always hit me in the comment section because those that have subscribed to my
channel know that i'm always active in the comment section that's right this video we're
going to talk about a couple lies that the united states pushes into us as americans growing up okay
let's talk about it right now let's get to it right now lie number one this one is a funny
one to me because in the united states it's always i don't care if you're a democrat i don't care if
a republican i don't care if you're independent i don't care where you at on the political spectrum
you're always going to have a politician telling you that they hate our freedoms our
freedom of religion our freedom of speech our freedom to vote and assemble and disagree with
yeah can you believe that personally personally like i felt like i've been hated
even doing these reaction videos i felt like i've been hated and um i think another lie that is
particularly a thing that happens is that america allows you to believe that everybody's jealous of
you because you're american you were born in america so on so forth you were in america so
on and so forth i think that's a major lie that's even probably greater than that first lie right
that people are actually jealous of you you know as if nowhere else in the world
has any freedoms like europe right you know in europe they act like you know they act like if
you come to europe there's just no freedoms change freedoms do i not have here in europe
you know as these are western democracies with western values and culture that has been exported
to the united states and it's become its own thing i'm not saying one is better than the other
but freedoms exist here i'm still trying to i'm still scratching my head what freedom do
you have in america that i don't have here let's talk about freedom of speech for example right
in america you have freedom of speech in the uk for example you don't have freedom of speech
what you do have is freedom of expression slight different tweak but let's give you an example in
america you can be as racist as you want to somebody you can walk up to me walk up to any
black person and say the n word all day long if you want or in the uk you really couldn't do that
because at some point you will cross a fine line of inciting racial hatred so if you define your
freedoms based on your ability to call somebody an n word or call some asian american some type
of offensive word by all means you can have that freedom i don't need that freedom but other people
in america talk about it like freedom for guns ooh guns guns you want to take your guns well
okay can you have guns yes can you have a rifle yes can you have a handgun
yes really what does the second amendment say in the united states it has to be it's highly
regulated so what is it here in the uk guess what it's highly regulated there's lots of regulations
around what type of gun where you have to store that gun where you have to keep the ammunition
what do you have to do for the maintenance of that gun highly regulated so you still have the freedom
to have a gun so if you define your freedoms as being able to have as many guns you want in
america okay fine no argument but i think that's a lie that they sell that nobody here has really
so i never knew that actually i actually never knew this until i'm watching this video that
uh well i know that certain countries the uh police officers like in europe obviously they
don't necessarily have uh guns some of them don't have it um but i really think that restriction of
a weapon is um a serious thing but i personally don't think that it should be uh it should be very
strictly uh regulated because there are psycho people out here man i could run a gun because
i want to you know i like shooting things i like shooting other you know birds and stuff like that
i like going hunting and stuff like that you know south south side you you grow you want to do a
little bit of you know country style you know what i mean right but um there are some people who want
to take a gun to kill somebody right and um those are the people that they don't deserve a weapon so
it should be highly regulated but i think people should have their free opinions and just like he
said about the n word like there's a line where you cross where that is no longer freedom of
speech that is now you just being a total dick and you're being offensive and you're hurting somebody
so you're trying to like give somebody a mental breakdown and that's a reach in terms of your
freedom so personally freedom of speech say your opinions you don't like black people that's fine
but don't degrade you know you're getting you're crossing borders so i really actually appreciate
this explanation not true number two what's that social housing is a bad thing it's something that
you're supposed to segregate from the rest of the population so for example in america especially in
la where i'm from or southern california where i'm from social housing section 8. well that's
usually in a separate side of the city not being seen i don't even know where it's at because
where i grew up was nothing but beautiful homes single-family homes no social housing
we're here in the uk just in europe in general it's all sprinkled around you for example here in
the uk i live in a beautiful big house beautiful executive style estate okay take it easy now but
they all have social housing and they do things that are
different in the united states or they do here in the uk that they wouldn't do or they don't do
the united states you could be on social housing but guess what you can partially own that house
so that way you can be on the track so you can buy ten percent in the home twenty percent of the home
fifty percent of the home and try to get all the way up to a hundred percent of the home like
me or you do so that's a different strategy that they do so that social housing is good
for everybody because that way the kids get to interact with all people from all social
and religious economic backgrounds and you as an adult get to work and meet and mingle with
people from all different backgrounds i think the neighborhoods are better for they're safer
for it less crime because guess what if you're in a executive style estate well guess what you
want to keep your home value high you want to keep it nice and looking new and that's going
to put pressure on the social housing to also keep their house nice keep the estate looking nice and
new and fresh so i think that's a myth i think that's something that should be revisited in the
united states number three in america they teach you this that somehow being a hard worker means
coming in early staying late never take any vacation and definitely don't call in sick that's
that's not a lie that is like that's the biggest mistake you could ever make faux pas you can make
let's try an example when i was working for a large airframe manufacturer in the united states
i remember a friend of mine we wanted to take two weeks off and go do something our managers looked
at us like we were crazy because we wanted to have the audacity to take two weeks off
and mind you we didn't have we didn't take any days off prior to that we just wanted to take two
weeks off in a year so we could do something they were like no reject it slim that down to a week
and i'm thinking isn't that my time off to relax to recharge my battery so i can come back to work
no now i think minds and hearts have changed a little bit in the united states
back from when i started working back in the early 2000s or mid-2000s maybe not not too much that
was a faux pas well here in the united kingdom and here in europe for example it's encouraged to take
time off you get 20 25 plus days off in mostly all european countries i think by law in the european
union you have to have 20 days off so it's encouraged to take time off because either you
use it or you lose it for example i think sweden if i can find the article it's on the screen now
but if not sweden is actually doing a trial where they're reducing the work hours to six
hours to see if it increases productivity because employees employers are seeing that
the employees are more arrested and more focused when they come back to work number four i think
i think work hours is a very strong topic and i personally believe that work hours should be
a period of um how do you structure this so it makes sense it shouldn't be a thing where
you're trying to get the most out of a person it should be the level of efficiency that you can get
so the quality of work that you can get in that particular period that should be a workout for
me if i'm making youtube videos i don't make the video edit the video upload the video immediately
i schedule it so okay that i'm more efficient so i'm not too drained when i'm gonna edit the
video and then let's say i i allow the videos to be uploaded while i'm sleeping
you get what i'm saying i'm still actively doing something that is actually productive towards the
youtube channel but i'm actually not um killing myself over over over driving myself i could do
everything can consistently just right after the other uh sequential i could just do it like that
but i'd be burnt out so i think that's what work hours should be it should be something quality
once you can get the amount of quality out of that particular period of time that's it you don't need
nothing more erica sells you this that capitalism and consumerism go hand in glove it's like this
cycle you have to work to buy to work again to pay for what you buy to buy some more stuff to
then work again and go down this continuous loop of working to live and in europe one of the things
that i find i think is a is a beauty and a benefit of working and living in europe is that there's
more of a work-life balance as i just talked about in point number three is that you have time off to
actually do stuff and you don't just have this endless working to consume don't get me wrong we
go on vacation so we're consuming what i would call um we are consuming experiences but we are
not we don't live to work we work to live and that is a benefit of living in europe and i think that
is great and i think the u.s sells a lie to its people by telling them that you have to work hard
to then buy stuff that financial gdp or whatever it's called i don't remember but yeah some gdp
that's really what it it that's really what it's all about it's it's just to have the economy like
that so when you evaluate america you will realize that it's not necessarily the people
like presidents have said it before man it's not what you do for um that's not what you do
for your country but that's not what your country can do for you but act what you can do for your
country bro that's really what it's all about so it's really about making that country financially
impossible to beat military-wise impossible to be that's really what that the achievement is that
aim is so it's not the people right and never do anything number five which kind of ties into
the first one i said but it really is on the republican right side in america they always
preach especially during the obamacare era 2012. oh hello about these death panels they literally
produced a video where they were throwing grandma off a cliff because of social media
make no mistake about it i never seen this
wow i can't believe this happened i was young though so what what can i say i was young
when obama was president i was probably like 10 11 12 i don't know i was really young so
obama and the democrats who supported obamacare began
throwing seniors off the cliff back the evils of social medicine that you were gonna have
death panels if you got sick i mean how ridiculous of a lie that i mean it's a bold face line
i've lived here 11 12 years i have yet to ever see a death panel i have known some older people
i know some younger people i know myself you can walk into any hospital in any country in europe
and there's not a single death penalty what do you expect them to say oh sorry you had a heart
attack last year mr carl but um since you had one last year we're not going to treat you for this
heart attack because the panel has refused your care on a side note you can't already have that
in america you just have it through the insurance companies because guess what they do decide not to
cover you that's right it's a pre-existing condition i don't think you can do that anymore
but they'll say that or they'll find a way to deny coverage they'll make it so high to cost
to do it that you have to do it out of pocket and guess what now you're bankrupt so that loops
right back to number one how are you free if you have to live with the pressure of going bankrupt
and not being able to pay your bills because guess what you have the audacity
to break your hip get sick i don't know you pick it so those are the five things that i think that
the united states lies this leads its people on purpose to further whatever big business
or whatever political agenda that they have to the people i'm going to leave with a bonus one
which is kind of strange if you look at it because number six is this
in america every day all students around the nation get up every morning and say the pledge of
allegiance you pledge yourself and align yourself to the united states and to the republic for which
it stands now that's not something that's common in europe in many western countries i don't know
of any other western country that makes its kids get up every morning i do know of one
back in 1938 1942-ish time those kids used to get up and actually pledge allegiance to their flag
and to their fuhrer but i don't know if that's something we
should necessarily be doing don't get me wrong i love my country i'm very patriotic about it i
love the fourth of july for all it's my country is never perfect but i think it can get better
but that's mine hit me in the comments tell me what you think and like always click here
to subscribe to the channel yeah that was a beautiful video he got some good points i ain't
got a lot of you pretty good points solid solid solid really solid really solid points man but
like i said it is what it is uh it's the agenda and um it's the american agenda it's
not necessarily that they care about the people it's really that they care about the country being
the greatest and that's the reason why it's forced upon its citizens to believe that america is the
greatest for whatever reasons obviously it is financial and military-wise because if you notice
they focus a lot on that but either ways that is what it is and i'm out of here guys
talk to me in the comment section and each other and it's really beautiful
to see you guys interacting with each other but either ways guys i'm out of here peace
