As with many other things, empathy has no value inherent; It is a tool. It is a tool to generate an understanding of your fellows, both in objective and quantifiable measures as well as those more subjective and qualitative. It can be used to harm or benefit others, and can be used competently or incompetently. Further, communication will always be able to undermine any amount of goodwill and thoughtful empathy. Remember, always, that empathy is the cornerstone of emotional intelligence, and emotional intelligence is key to accomplishing anything that involves another person. Just be kind and thoughtful in the way you use your understanding, and the world will be better for it. TLDR: empathy is key to intelligence, but remember to be thoughtful and kind with your words as well. The world will thank you. (I just realized this TLDR could be seen as a criticism when it isn't meant as such, but I'll leave it as a rather ironic proof of my point)

This is a fascinating watch right after The Leftist Cooks' recent video "This is not a Video Essay." I can't help but think that there is a process that happens in watching and dialoging with these video essays (Not you, the author, but the art/output itself). This process is similar to school education in that it shapes ideas, dialogues, strategies, and attitudes, as well as being capital A Art. While watching a video is not "praxis," it is part of the path of praxis. And for the 70% or so that are watching as vegetables, there's still a valuable moment being experienced by the hundreds of others present and thoughtful. A lot of the research on reading, for instance, talks about the need for theoretical time spent stretching and testing emotional presence. Also, your cover of "Land of Confusion" is genuinely excellent. Thank you for that.

I rewatched Network a few times over the years with my dad as I grew up, and hearing my dad laugh uproariously as Howard marched into the studio in trenchoat and pajamas, or receive the "revelation", or declaring "I must make my witness!" probably did a lot to shape my relationship with the film. I think it entrenched in my mind that perhaps, just perhaps, Howard Beale was more cautionary tale than true prophet. I think it also helped that the line my Dad and I tend to throw around more often is "You have meddled in the primal forces of Nature!" than "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take it anymore." Great video, and I appreciate pointing out the more uncomfortable elements stemming from the movie's age. It'll definitely give me more to think about whenever I next sit down to rewatch it. 😡

Everyone needs you to not just yell out of your window or through your device, but stop watching and get not just mad as hell but organized and active.

People’s path toward becoming who they are is a messy one, and bridges are often burned. Part of me wishes Kyle was with all the cool kids on Nebula, but whats more important is him taking care of his mental health, doing work that makes him happy, and finding a community that accepts him and helps him be his best self. Whatever drama has happened between these 30-somethings I don’t know hasn’t stopped me from enjoying Kyle’s writing, his voice, his humor, his perspective, or his editing.

So many of these modern influencers feel like parodies played entirely seriously, screaming vitriol and descending into lunatic rants, and after being surrounded by them, for so long, more and more people act like it's normal.

😡 I loved this. As with so much of your work I will return to this one a number of times to digest it all, and of course for the sheer enjoyment of doing so! Also: hats off to you for your version of Land of Confusion at the end. Bloody superb.

Thanks for bringing up this film again. This has one the most famous scenes in film.

I am engaging to help, so may I say thank you for highlighting daddies, help retire the primal father auteurs, create a world of fraternal brotherhood.

The boredom-killing is an important business in this day and age. Keep up the good work, Kyle. It's rad and swell!

😡 Loved Tony's reading of The Kodak. It's how I imagine Mark Twain sounded.

😡I remember when my dad got me a bunch of movies when I decided I wanted to be an actor and I was going to college for it. A huge stack of movies that he said had some of the best acting in the history of film. Network was one of them. Every time I finished one of the movies that he got me he would ask me my opinion on them. We talked about My Dinner with Andre, we talked about Rain Man, Midnight Cowboy, and several others. Then we talked about Network. I have a much different association with the film than a lot of others. Because I associate it as a way I was able to connect with my father.

in Australia, oddly enough the nation where Peter Finch and Heath Ledger came from, there's a show by comedian Sean Micallef, called "Sean Micallef's "Mad as Hell"" TV series, mostly satire about Australian politics and events done as a talk show.

for instance, they rewrote the name CFMEU (Construction, Forrestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union). as FUCME.

You can always unsubscribe from those pure rage channels. Yes: Even if they are of your side. Because all that impotent rage doesn't do anyone any good. And it's always impotent rage. (That Genesis cover at the end totally SLAPPED!)

Good thing I haven't followed a "rage" channel in over a decade. The last one I dropped in 2012, after the guy said video games weren't art, simply because it would otherwise violate his strongly held belief that art "died in the Bush years"

😡 Dude thank you for making this. I may never know you but what little I've gleaned from the work you've shared on this tube of yours I've respected. Stay awesome.

I love how much you reworded, and expanded upon the film Network in your own rants throughout this video, really close to Beale in many ways, especially the one at 1:23:00. Excellent.
