I believe this talk has just described my depression...

I couldn't agree more. I actually made my friends see this and I got was those pesky sneers. People tend to be complacent, they always question the person who is speaking rather than focusing on the message and actually understanding it. How could someone make them think otherwise? I tried but always to no avail.

Appreciate that your comment was a year ago, but I have found the same problem and a solution. The solution is not to try and change peoples minds, they will end up resenting you and you could end up feeling isolated, they have a different perspective to you and your views are just as alien to them as theirs are to you, even if your evidence is solid; you cannot push someone up a ladder they are not willing to climb. What you can do is focus on what you are doing, you may have views that align with those in this talk or others that involve goodness, human progress and global citizenship, but are you actually doing anything about it? If each person that had these views of a better, more unified and collaborative world, decided that rather than trying to convince people to change their minds, decided to actually make the world a better place, work on renewable energy or other sustainable technologies, feed the homeless, educate children, work on a cure, donate your time and resources to worthy causes, attach yourself to others that are working on real global problems, the world will become much better at an exponential rate. The problem is that many believe the worlds problems are too big, vested interests are too powerful and it is all hopeless, I am reminded of the words of the late Jaques Fresco: 'If you think that you cannot change the world, it just means that you are not one of those that will'. When you are making a difference and enjoying the gratification of living a life worth living as an active global citizen, maybe then those around you will want to climb the ladder, at which point you can help pull them up rather than push them up. All the best.

You're not alone in pursuing that path. I do believe there're a lot more of people thinking and doing the same things right now, right this moment. There will always be fears of being rejected by others or failing to achieve that seemingly impossible goal. But we're not alone and there will be millions more standing up for themselves, their families and their values. I do believe!

unrealistic? Not exactly... He asks us to demand that we are treated as humans by our governments... We should demand from our governments to care... We elect them after all...

Because of people like you, it's unrealistic. You can't know unless you start the movement.

Maybe....still....what is ommitted in his discourse, is the cry for justice..... Collaboration without justice is not acceptable to many, especially when justice has been denied over and over again, even pursposefully...
