Hey YouTube drone tech here well well well minutes after reading this story It's been announced that the DOJ is expecting a conclusion to this hoax investigation and maybe as early as next week It would appear the clapper is making his rounds to tamp down any Expectations that the media and the Democrats might have about Russian collusion at the end of this investigation My instincts tell me that his media appearances right now are less about lowering Expectations and more about laying the groundwork for CNN and the rest of the media to spin this story away from their part in the entire sham You remember that this entire thing kicked off with Buzzfeed Reporting on a leaked opposition research dossier also known as the P dossier that was funded by the Clinton campaign It was built using foreign intelligence agencies including the Kremlin the media ran with it And we know now that the unverified document was used as an excuse to open this investigation and to get FISA warrants to spy on People within the administration These are all things that should come back to bite the media networks and the people involved in the scam You see once it comes out that there was no Russian collusion or a highly deluded version of their original story The media will once again attempt to salvage the credibility using similar tactics that we see them using right now in regards to coming ten and the Smollett stories They will simply point their fingers at scapegoats as they present themselves as protectors of truth and democracy Because of you know, you consider Putin's background as a trained experienced KGB agent And how he would approach somebody that he is trying to co-opt or influence or gain leverage over and in this case, you know appeal to ego and And and so in that in that sense in that context is what I think of when I mean Potential unwitting asset is the Robert Mueller investigation and what's happening in Congress enough Well, I don't know. I mean, that's a big the big question. What I think that the the hope Is that the Mueller investigation will clear the air on this issue once and for all I'm really not sure will and and the investigation when completed could turn out to be quite Anacomactic and not draw a conclusion about that again. I don't know Did you notice how Alice and Camerota opened the door for more Investigations if the Mueller investigation doesn't provide the desired outcome These people will never stop just like the 2016 election just like Brexit being wrong or losing election doesn't mean anything to these people Their agenda will be driven forward regardless Clapper says you consider Putin's background as a trained experienced KGB agent and how he would approach somebody that he's trying to co-opt or Influence or gain leverage over and in this case, you know appeal to ego in that sense in that context is what I think of what I mean potential unwitting asset That is some serious backtracking this relatively new narrative of unwitting asset started a few weeks ago And I thought it was absurd to the extreme when I first heard it Anybody could have easily made the case that Obama was a fool and an unwitting asset of Iran or even Russia remember when Obama was speaking to MedVev and Assured him that after the election he would have more power and ability to work with him on missile defense Any of these people could have come out back then and made the exact same arguments, but they didn't Or that Democrats are unwitting assets of Mexico and the cartels After all the cartels stand to lose money if the wall is built and they seem to represent Mexicans more than American citizens My point is it's not particularly compelling that a political opponent to Trump thinks he's an unwitting asset of another country The opposition always thinks that The very fact that Clapper is trying to use this spin to conjure up distrust of Trump is very telling and it suggests that the entire Investigation is going to end just like the Duke La Crosse team story or the Cohen story or the Covington story or the small let and probably thousands of other examples that never got the same attention Do get ready because the next couple weeks could either be very decisive or Purposely nebulous to allow for continued media spin and usage of this story through the 2020 election Thanks for watching.

Since Q1 did so well, what's Q2 going to look like? In terms of crypto, I think April is going to be pretty wild. My instinct tells me that Q2 is going to be pretty volatile across all markets, I think. My instinct says that it's probably going to be more to the downside than to the upside. But then when we come to talking about crypto, just who knows? My thoughts for 2023 are we all get sufficiently wrecked, right? I mean, we wrecked the bears half the year, we wrecked the bulls half the year. This is what we saw in 2019 and 2015 as well. I don't really see any reason why this time is going to be different. One thing that I think is interesting, and it's surely nothing you can take to the bank, but the lowest price that Bitcoin was at in Q1 was on January 1st, right? The lowest price was on January 1st. And so far, in Q2, the highest price was on April 1st, at least so far.


Since 2011, U.S. Africa Command has taken a leading role in the Department of Defense efforts to advance the inclusion of women in all aspects of peacekeeping and security. I've seen firsthand the role that women can play over the last 30 years in war zones from Yugoslavia to Iraq, Afghanistan, and now Somalia, that's a hell in the Lake Chad Basin. I've also seen how the U.S. military has changed as it introduced and expanded the role of women in the armed forces. From my first ship, where I was the only woman aboard, to now running the intelligence directorate at U.S. Africa Command, we face hard, complex problems in Africa. And the greatest diversity of thought and perspective, as well as access to the best talent, is essential in our progress in building a secure, prosperous Africa. There are over 500 million women on the continent of Africa, whose perspectives and talent are an underutilized resource within the security sector. Since 2018, I have been privileged to have led and participated in numerous engagements to promote women peace and security objectives. From joint communication workshops, women's intelligence training, and events hosted by our U.S. ambassadors on the continent, these events have promoted women's integration in the military, the role of women in security operations, and how to reduce gender-based violence. The women I've had the opportunity to work with, the Niger, Burkina Faso, Tunisia, Nigeria, Kenya, Senegal, and Morocco, have both impressed me and inspired me with their drive and desire to serve their countries. It was an honor to watch these women graduate from their programs, grow their network of women leaders, and go on to make a real impact in the security and stability of their countries. In collaboration with our European allies and our African partners, we can build a new and better future for African women to become true change agents and builders of their peace and security in their communities.


Let's have a look at another example. So here we have an oxidation-reduction reaction occurring again at the same time We've got zinc reacting with hydrogen ions to produce zinc ions and hydrogen gas The solid zinc over here is being oxidized to zinc ions So it is losing its two electrons from the outer shell and it's making the zinc ions, okay? The hydrogen ions are gaining the electrons from the zinc and producing hydrogen gas So the hydrogen is being- hydrogen ions are being reduced to hydrogen gas So here are the questions Which substance is losing electrons? Which substance is gaining electrons? Which substance is the reductant? Which substance is the oxidant? So let's have a look. The zinc is losing electrons to produce zinc ions So it is being oxidized. Because it is being oxidized, it is causing the reduction of the hydrogen ions So the zinc is the reductant here in this reaction The hydrogen ions down here are gaining electrons to produce hydrogen gas Hydrogen ions are gaining the electrons that are given off from zinc So the hydrogen ions are being reduced to hydrogen gas Because it's being reduced, it is causing the oxidation of the zinc It is taking the electrons from the zinc to produce the zinc ions And those electrons that are being taken from the zinc ions are going to the hydrogen ions to produce hydrogen gas So the oxidant is the hydrogen ions So today on Flipping Science we looked at oxidation reduction and what they are and some simple definitions. That's it for Flipping Science today. See ya


This is why narcissists are covert. A covert narcissist is someone who craves admiration and importance. They need to feel like there's something impressive and worthy of respect as though they're of great significance and value and of considerable influence and authority. They may display symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder but they will often hide the more obvious signs of their condition. They have the same insecurities as an overt narcissist but they internalize their self-importance. Their condition is caused by childhood trauma, low emotional intelligence and abusive past relationships which has resulted in them being hypersensitive to criticism and chronically envious and jealous which is why they will gas like you and show a lack of empathy. It's also why they feel the need to compete with you and be superior but unlike the overt narcissist they won't be so impressive and imposing. They won't act so friendly or socially confident because they're very insecure and they have low self-esteem. They fear rejection and abandonment which is why they will typically play the victim as though they've been tricked or duped when in fact they are the perpetrator in every situation they're involved in. They're very disagreeable so there's no two sides to things.  They will seek revenge because they're very unforgiving and they hold grudges and they do that because they have a negative approach to life. So they choose to hold on to emotions like envy and jealousy and they become very bitter and resentful which is already understood. Many people are already aware of this information but what no one talks about is why COVID narcissists hide the abuse, why is it not openly acknowledged or displayed, why is it done in secret which is why I decided to create this video to give you five reasons why narcissists choose to be covert. One, they don't really believe in their stance, they don't have enough confidence in their attitude and point of view, they're unsure and many of them already know that they're wrong, they're insecure, they lack self confidence and they require excessive validation so they need to get other people on board. They need other people to be in agreement with their particular course of action because if other people believe in it it makes it more believable to them and then they will feel justified in what they do. It will make more sense to them but they haven't got enough confidence to pursue that course of action on their own because they already know that it's wrong, it's just that any other alternative would not produce the result that they want so they feel compelled to continue along this path to obtain what they want and what they are missing which is a sense of safety, stability and security because covert narcissists are very paranoid and hyper-vigilant, they think people are out to get them, they're emotionally unstable and they're very insecure but they're also very entitled, they think the world owes them something so they feel inherently deserving of privileges and special treatment, two, they don't think the world would accept that ideology, covert narcissists hide their true feelings and opinions, they keep a code of silence, they choose to hide the abuse because if they came out and it became common knowledge they know that it would come across as foolish and unreasonable, it wouldn't make any logical sense and their behaviour would be seen as unjustified because their justifications would not fit the cause, it wouldn't line up with their actions or to the things that they say are important to them because if it was so important they would be a tint of the things that should be most significant to them so they have to remain covert or else people would start to question their motives, they would question why they're doing what they're doing and then they would realise that the root cause of their behaviour is in fact their envy and jealousy, three, they think that it gives them the upper hand covert narcissists don't put all of their cards on the table, they're very dishonest so they won't tell you their thoughts or plans in an open way, they won't be honest about their feelings or intentions because they believe that it gives them the upper hand, they believe that it gives them the advantage and that's ultimately what they're seeking because they're very insecure, they lack confidence in themselves so they have to hide what they're doing to put themselves in a favourable and superior position because what they're really seeking is power and control, they need to establish some authority over the thing that they are envious of because otherwise you would be in control of them and you would be able to dictate their feelings and emotions and they don't want you to do that, they don't want you to have that power over them so they have to break you down mentally and emotionally, they have to gas like you and leave you in a state of confusion so that you can't make sense of anything because then that gives them power over you which is what they're seeking because they're very insecure, they feel intimidated by you, they feel vulnerable and at risk as though they're exposed to the possibility of being attacked or harmed because they're very paranoid and also because deep down they already know that they deserve it because they know they don't mean you know well so they already expect to be mistreated, they're expecting you to take revenge because they already know that they're no good which is why they don't put all of their cars on the table and it's why they're seeking the upper hand because they're already expecting you to destroy them, they already know that it's what they deserve so it's what they're expecting you to do for, they would be setting themselves up, if they were not covert, they would be setting themselves up to be seen as abusers, as groomers, as bad despicable people, as people who mean you know well and that is the last thing they want to do, they're not going to put themselves in that position because they don't want to play that role, covert narcissists prefer to play the victim because they believe that it gives them more power, attention and sympathy, they believe that it makes them untouchable because then no one would see it as though you were trying to protect or defend yourself so if they came out they would be exposing themselves to the possibility of danger or harm, they would be revealing their own true objectionable nature and then people would be able to see everything as it actually is, they would be able to question things and they would be able to decide what is right and what is wrong and the narcissist already knows how that would go down, they already know that not everyone would be accepting of the ideology which is why it's a very slow process for them to groom people, to brainwash them, to get them to accept their system of ideas and ideals, it doesn't happen overnight but a lot of them were already that way, even before the narcissist contaminated their minds they already possessed that way of thinking and it just amplified their behavior, it brought out the monster that was already there inside of them, if you gave people a pass to do whatever they want you'd be surprised what people might do because by nature a lot of people are not morally good which is why we have rules and laws and it's why COVID narcissists hide the abuse because they don't want to be subject to the law and they don't believe that they should have the answer to anyone because in their minds they are the exception, it might be wrong for everyone else but it's okay for them, they hide it because they know the world might not agree with how they think but that doesn't change how they feel inside, deep down they really believe that they're justified in doing what they do, they believe that they're not accountable because they've been wronged or because they've had a difficult life which caused them to develop this arrogance and a strong sense of entitlement to where they think they can do whatever they want without any consequences for their actions, five, they're cowards when it all comes down to it they're just cowards, they lack the courage to endure dangerous or unpleasant things, they're not brave so they're too eager to avoid danger, difficulty and pain, they're non-confrontational because they know it's a battle they cannot win which is why they will never try to fight you with logic or correct reasoning, they're just not going to go there with you because they already know they'd be setting themselves up to fail so instead they try to get around your logic, they gas like you, they manipulate your emotions, they try to weaken you because they see you as a strong opponent when in fact it's not so much that you're a superhero or some other fictional character, it's just that they're weak, they're lacking they're lacking the power to perform, they have little strength and energy, they don't have the ability, skills or qualities to face things head on and to be direct so they have to deviate from the direct line or course rather than following the correct action or procedure so that they don't suffer the immediate result of something, they can't proceed straight to the point they can't object because they already know that would put them in a weaker position, they know it would put them at a disadvantage because they lack confidence, they're unsure of themselves and a lot of them don't even know why they're doing what they're doing, they haven't even tried to make sense of it, it's a habit, they're just stuck on a loop, deep down they are craving love, connection and acceptance, they just don't know how to get it and even if it was right in front of them, they wouldn't know how to receive it thank you for watching, if you found this video helpful please give it a thumbs up share your

Yeah Hello, I want to Talk a little bit over the last Congress what what we have done. It's also quite nice to do the After the priest talk about the the network because we tested the nitby split a little bit and had a lot of fun so the Congress basically moved last year to Life-sick and we had a really complete new goal. So Yeah, basically 15,000 people no idea how many really want to use the network, but I will come come to that later and Also the place here changed a little bit before we were that's in Hamburg Which was up in the left corner where you see was a little bit smaller even there were multiple floors. It's Still a huge difference and we actually had to cover everything But this this wasn't covered, but all the other rooms are this is Huge hall of glass and you see I think their cars, right? You see that's Really huge place to cover somehow Yeah, so let's start with the license we got lucky that someone at the university Teresa asked Ask for license in Germany for the nano 3g which usually supports on the US band Yeah, so we we got quite early that we know we can it seems to be that we can also get a license and Since several years the band in the the GSM band was sold which we used before we had every year test license But they sold the spectrum and we ask Some operators every year the last year was the Deutsche Telekom who actually planned Yeah moved their own channels so they could gave us three GSM channels So they borrowed us them for free Yeah, so let's see if on the technical side what's different that was that was the 30s 33 C3 and This is the 34th PC. It's a little bit different. You see it's missing here the SDSN and the GTSN but Except else. Yeah, it's it's a huge difference So it got much more complex which isn't might also be a little bit difficult especially for Beginners who didn't know Osmo come before to help us Yeah So here's a little bit timeline how we began for as I have heard for the first time We really had a special day to prepare everything I don't know how it was before because as I joined the GSM team on the 33 C4 we see so it didn't know how it worked before I think Harald Daniel, I don't know who was it before Two years ago who build it up? Yeah, so back of you What Wait missing slide. Ah, sorry So we met up in Berlin and a lot of people joined even new people who wasn't before on the Osmo come project Also the team at the Congress itself grown before I think it was like on the 33 C3 was maybe Five people rounded three people who got really involved and some people said yeah we help out if you need any help or have questions just ask us and and on the last Congress, I think we was 15 people or so Was really nice and on the workshop. We basically introduce the people explain what it was and also prepared the Congress setup we so we used Ansible to set up the core network and Also prepared it for for the things that like we thought okay We won't use packages. We will compile all the time We will probably have to do some patches while the Congress so we want to have a fast Timeline from compiling to deploying so yeah prepare everything If somebody is interested I can give out the Ansible and the configuration we have used Yeah, so it was really nice to have at least two workshops, but still it wasn't enough. It didn't work quite well So we also discussed about the problems we had as before the even the year before I had problems Compiling LCR so it really worked with Osmo come and so even on the So even on the 33 we had they couldn't compile and just use the old compiled version which worked somehow, I don't know why and so we thought okay, let's try to switch it try to use the Osmo SIP connector use free switch instead of the LCR and Also the on the Congress. There's a token registration so we just give out the SIM cards and the people can register on the phone operation team that's the separate team which does the order the decked phones and Taking care of the whole phone network independently from the GSM network And they have a website where you basically connect your SIM card by calling a special number So you connect your SIM card with the phone number and it's also we are that's the token registration We it's just a simple Python script together with the API and we had the problem of UMTS We know that there's this nano we had the nano 3g which was given out of the two interested people of the community and But nobody really did a network out of it. How do they behave if you? Deploy three or more. How is it with neighbor cells? Do they even work on the same? Frequency because we only got one channel, but you can do different Scramming codes within the same channel. So all things we never knew and my my opinion the biggest problem was On UMTS we have data, but no voice because for the voice. We are missing I URP as Harald already talked about it So we hadn't any functional voice calls not even between the phones because we Didn't done any local switching and we hadn't even No, no, no because we couldn't do the actual as We was always always routing through the Pog network I'm not sure if we switch that later, but we had enough problems within it be split So we had no no CS fallback to 2g so it wasn't really nice and we I think we haven't really talked enough about problems And hey if you really want to talk just disable 3g Yeah, we had enough we had to communicate with with ourselves while the time So about the technical thing. This is the whole picture before I had just zoomed it out and It's missing. Here's the sip connector and the free switch and the further ref right upper and so I'm just Starting to say what crash basically or what wasn't working So starting with the sg's and I don't know why but we haven't found it out while testing the network at the workshop The sg's and seems to crash when the second user came online Of course. Yeah interesting Then it found out. Oh, okay. If the hnb gateway got to Femto cells connected or so. I'm not sure if it was directly crashing or just not working, but Yeah, let's let's go further what we have else Yeah, the msc that one crashed in the end every two hours and everybody got disconnected and had to do a location update without knowing that they just got disconnected Which we hadn't we even fixed it until to end and we also got problems the MGW because it was leaking Endpoints and got full in the end. So no, we had to restart the MGWs While on call or so that was also not really improving the user experience. We had some experimental patches which Wasn't finished at the time and didn't work. Well, which we tried out And yeah, what's also HLR? Yeah, the HLR basically work But when we do this token registration, we connect in the end to the HLR and we're updating the The extension to the real one. So first we generate some random extension and when they call the token We we we update this extension number to the real one, which the user registered on the web interface and The update didn't really work. So the user had really to power off and power on so doing a location update To actually got their Number which we also didn't fixed What missing the zip connector got also problems. I think it also crashed, but at least the codec selection wouldn't work. So we We set every codec to full-weight and Doesn't didn't care any further about codec Yeah Looks like a really stable network at this time. It was also Yeah As we said everything changed rather than it be split and I would guess everything fixed by now, I think so And Now we have even tests for it, but it yeah I was really horrible sitting there and trying to do the next step the next step and just saying oh, no it's not working not there and Back I'm going just shortly back to the timeline if you see so We had more preparation We even arrived quite early where at least Yeah, we feel the room was basically filled by more than 10 people and we were really trying to fix it And yeah, it was really not working that way But in the end we got some instable network in the evening of the second day. So at least somehow it was Working I would say Yeah, here's just just the list so far I could remember maybe I'm missing some parts don't know Yeah, but some things actually gonna work We also hadn't the wheels. Yeah, nobody really thought about service at the moment What should we use the old one or the new one actually we run the whole core network on the APU Which basically worked fine, but also had some problems on it, but the problem was more likely That's all the locks rolled over because we only got 16 gigabyte of storage which was fine But when the crash dumps came in and the lock Yeah, the lock rolled over the crash come dumps got deleted and not enough Base for you for doing p-caps and other things, but in the end it worked if the network would have worked Fine that were that wasn't problem at all except the free switch and we had to transcode every call twice even if it was a GSM to GSM call because we routed to their So the phone phone network completely We had another server where the free switch runs to do the transcoding, but If we wouldn't do any transcoding that of course could also run on it So but we also had unbelievable we were selling sim cards we We have never sold so many sim cards even they were unlabeled just write some cuts usually we we sold them with the nice Congress artwork and everything that yeah this time we just had of for shortage of time just White labels and also the setup itself and the provisioning of of the hardware like the like the cells Like the nano 3g and the sysmo bts's they worked all fine. So that really worked nicely with the scripts we've built up Yeah This was there basically a single note and also one point because of huge area we used I think big sysmo bts's and We actually never used Never used the amplifier. So yes, it was connected, but it was just sending 200 millivolts For GSM and the nano 3g was yeah, I don't know how much they They transmit not enough. I would get so it was think 20 millivolts or so Yeah, so again about the building. So this was our Setup so they said this was this wasn't used by us Or it was just the sleeping sleeping rooms Yeah, the those are gsm stations and the red one are now nano 3g's and Yeah, it felt working nice. Nobody really had any time to test anything for real, but As soon I could say it worked that way quite well. We didn't had any gsm Coverage problems so far. We know whatever that means But yeah, so Even we had some communication we we have to make sure that the network That's the network team really plan with us and have at least the network for us prepared So we just have to tell them where we want to connect our stations to the network We created some timeline when should we do this or that like Doing the Asking for the license and also Yeah, all the organization stuff Also for the nano 3g we have or we really would like to use power over ethernet so it makes a lot of easier and Yeah, so a lot of people ask for the keys for their cards and also told told us hey, we would like to build a small Small note in our hacker space or somewhere and the worst really a lot of people really want to do something with their sim cards and Creating their own network, which was really nice Yeah, that was it basically thanks everybody who worked for the event and I really have yeah Really happy to see it this year how everything is working fine from the first day and not Not starting at the second day evening Yeah, we also didn't had any statistics which was missing there which didn't worked out But hopefully we can prepare for the next year and maybe have also all those KPIs in there But yeah, we will see how how much time we have for the next year or for this year better to say Is it clear yet? Which when you this year will be no idea Yeah, no idea where it will happen Maybe a comment from from my side Yeah, I was completely disappointed with the The status of the network elements. I mean I started to write tests before The CCC Congress already I wrote various tests during the event and I wrote tests afterwards but Yeah, it's I think it was really an eye-opener for the lack of quality in the in the osmo-com stack and I think everyone should Everyone involved should take that as an example on Yeah, how how not to do things and How to properly test software In in various ways So you said lots of people showed up What was their hook did they come from the angle system? How did it work? No, they just came by we so it's a Congress. We had a room the GSM room which was In one of the reports quite Near the near some some place So it wasn't if you could have seen the room and some people just came in asked Hey, what are you doing here and a lot of people just came by and yeah ask for the sim ask for the keys for the admin pins For the sim card so they can use it for other purposes as well


spectrum. So when we're looking at, and we're talking about young migrants, we're looking at young migrants that might come in, they might come in for a study program. We have quite a significant study program both at, if you like, a secondary or senior school level, as well as a tertiary, so if you like university and other type of tertiary institution level. And that's it, if you like, at one end of the spectrums, they're often going to come in supported, not always, but often they're going to come in supported either by family back at home or in fact family that travels with them. And then at the other end of the spectrum, you've got those that are most in need. And of course the ones that Arania was talking about, I think, were definitely in that sort of latter category. And these are young people that are in need of significant assistance, particularly if they fall into that category I spoke of have been unaccompanied minors. So no, if you like, family mechanisms, no community mechanisms. We have had a lot of experience at that over the years and I'll be frank in saying because we always are, being Australian, that we have got it wrong from time to time. But over that time we've, if you like, we have worked out that different cohorts, so different people from different parts of the world, different young persons, require different things. Sometimes it's torture and trauma counselling and in fact I'm not a psychologist, obviously Arania is and can talk to this with much greater expertise than I, but even within that subset they're going to require different type of counselling, if you like, depending on where they've come from and what they present with. And in trying to, I started out by saying that Australia takes a whole of program approach to, and I talked about this tiered and needs based type provision of services. Within that we've got, and I talked about leavers, and within that we've got, and I'll talk very briefly about three of those leavers. One of these, if you like, we call them status resolution support services. These are people that are at that acute end of the spectrum, largely because they're either asylum seekers or that they are refugees. But also if you like, people that fall into that category of in need of protection for other reasons, so maybe fall short of, if you like, the 51 convention tests, but still are in need of protection. And with those services, particularly when we're talking about minors, so young, young migrants, if you like, we've got things like live-in-care support, basic clothing allowance, which you wouldn't think would be a major thing, but it was actually something that we identified. One of those things that we fell over in, in generations past when we were dealing with our migrant flows, was just that self-respect of being able to not just get second-hand gloves that are given to them out of a back of a truck, but go and buy them themselves, that sort of self-respect that comes with that. Educational assistance, of course, I've spoken about, and something's called support for meaningful engagement. One manifestation of this is with a particular, and I won't name the cultural group, but in one of our regional areas in one of our states within Australia, Victoria, in a place called Ballarat, there was a soccer team that was, it was a soccer team that was just young women, so we're talking about women between the ages of 11 and 15, I understand, from a particular cultural group that was new to Australia, so we hadn't had that cultural group for before, and that team gave these young women a place to talk to other women that are in similar situations to their own, but as well as playing other teams, and if you're like part of that integration process, we know that the power of sport and that ability to interact with others, but interact with others not on their own, but in a group. So that's one sort of element. The next one I'll talk about very briefly is what we call settlement engagement and transition support, so this is kind of a, it's a two tiered thing where we're looking at the individuals, so we're looking at providing advice. Now one of the issues that's been identified in the questions is this engagement with a legal system. Now we know that minors in a lot of legal systems have less, if you like, less capacity, shall we call it, or less ability to engage their rights purely because they're young. We don't trust them to make decisions for themselves. We've got quite a, I'll call it sophisticated, but obviously I'm talking from an Australian self-interest point of view, but I'd say our judicial system has been dealing with this question not just with migrants, but with Australians for a long time. And what we've done is set a statutory framework up that specifically deals with immigrant minors. It's called the Immigration Guardianship of Children's Act, and it specifically deals with that circumstance where largely we are talking about medical care. So we're a young person without a guardian or without a parent or another guardian falls into a situation where it's deemed questionable by doctors that they can actually make a decision on their own. And then we have a court system that can deal with that, and we have a children's representative that's there that acts on their behalf, and the potential, not in every case of course, only in the most extreme cases, the appointment of a guardian. And third one I'll talk about is social cohesion and multicultural programs. This is where we go to NGOs like the expertise that we've got on this panel, and we go to them, what do you think we should do? And I might just briefly talk about the two. These are specific examples. One is called the Two Way Street Initiative. So this is an NGO-led initiative where my government gave some money over to a group in Sydney, one of our capital cities in Australia, and it was specifically targeted at young Sudanese. We have quite a large group of Sudanese that came to our country as refugees in the late 90s, early 2000s, and this program is specifically targeted at arming them with, I'll call it, key skills and knowledge required to work in Australia. But what it is essentially is talking about us, so what are our democratic values, what are concepts that we hold dear around equality, gender diversity, basically learning about Australia, who we are. And it's a program that is led by, in a large case, former Sudanese, we're fortunate in that we have had a diaspora that's built up in that community over time and we've been able to leverage off that for a program like this. And the last one I'll talk about is the Rights and Responsibilities for Young Migrants Community Legal Education Project. Now this is in another one of our capital cities of Perth, and it's targeted at those young migrants that are in those later years of their school education, so senior school level, and it deals with migrants that are particularly culturally and linguistically diverse. So we're talking about non-native English speakers that are coming from backgrounds that are quite different to what they've found themselves in, so in Australian society, and it's very much about educating them specifically about their rights and their responsibilities, so more about what they can do and what they can't do. Thank you. Thank you very much, Steve. Now we have two questions from Nadja, and of course it's linked with the work of Tahadi. Tahadi also provides free schooling for low-income and displaced children. What relationship exists between education and young people's psychological development? This is the first question, and the second one, what are your recommendations for governments, aid organizations, and other relevant actors to further support the psychological well-being of migrants, refugees, and other vulnerable populations? Please. Thank you. So for us on the ground at the community level, we found that focusing on education is our biggest priority. We work in one specific neighborhood, as I mentioned, and we have different centers, education, health, psychosocial center. Our education center is by far our largest center. We have about 300 children that pass through the center each day. That's from very young children through our early childhood program to primary school age children, and a growing focus on youth. Why this focus so much on education? Because in our context, we see a lot of children that are not able to access formal schooling, and that's for social reasons, economic reasons, and because it's the biggest demand from the youth themselves, from the children themselves, and from the families. Education, of course, is all about us reaching our potential and giving back to what we can, to our communities. And there's a big drive from the community for this basic right. So within the education center, we provide academic instruction to the children and to the youth, all the usual things that you might imagine in a school, and specifically with the youth. And we also work on job training and vocational training. We expose them to a lot of different types of vocation that they might consider, and also provide them with job skills. The focus of the education center is also very much on building social cohesion, because it's one of the few places within our community that people from different backgrounds can meet together, build relationships, and work on joint projects. And through that, we also have very deliberate programs where we discuss peace-building, nonviolent communication, and work on joint projects that the youth themselves design. For example, recently, we had youth design programs for displaced families living in another part of the country, where they would visit them on a monthly basis and provide supports for them and activities. When I did this exercise that I mentioned earlier with youth that are not in an education program, I sat with young mothers that were under the age of 20 who had been married for a number of years. And we asked them, can you tell me again, what are the components of well-being to you? If you were to tell us, how can you be well? What things would help you be well? I was surprised, actually, but their number one thing was education. I thought, and even I worked in that area for 10 years, I thought their number one answer would be jobs for their husbands or better housing or schooling for their children, but actually still their primary desire was to be in school themselves. And I think this speaks volumes about the importance of education for youth, for their own sense of self and for their futures. Again and again, when we asked this question, we had this one response, education is about our future. I don't know if my future will be here or elsewhere, but I want the tools to build my future and the future of my kids when it was the mothers. This was again repeated by young men who were working, again under the age of 20, who were the primary breadwinners for their family, which is common among the families we work for. It's often the youth that are the primary breadwinners with all of the stress that you might imagine. And for them also, they wanted access again to schooling. But schooling, that's flexible. And I think that gets into your second question, Diane, about what are the recommendations? How can we build programs that reach those on the margins, those that are excluded? I think that was discussed in the Plenary Session yesterday by the representative from the EU, Mr. Christian, who mentioned again, what are the needs of those that are excluded? And so how can we adapt our service provisions, specifically education, to meet those that are not included? So for me, I often think of young mothers, those under the age of 25. Can we build education programs that offer childcare? Can it be done in a flexible way? Can it be done a condensed way, moving away from these traditional forms of education? Same for those of youth that are working. How can we make education accessible to them? Another issue that comes up a lot with the youth we work with, whether in school or elsewhere, is the need for protection. So in our context, the school environment is a protective environment. It stands in stark contrast to the rest of the community in terms of it provides a space for youth to be safe, to be young again. They don't need to worry about violence. We don't need to worry about drugs. Unfortunately, that's a growing issue in our area. There's also the issue of racketeering. One of the youth was telling me, I want to leave my house because it's small and crowded, and I want a bit of privacy. I want to sit outside.  And if I respond, I'll get into a fight. There's nowhere for me to hang out safely. So education or youth centers offers this important protective environment. It also reduces the chances that children will work because they're busy. Oftentimes, when children are not in school and youth, I'm using the word children, but I'm also meaning those early teenagers, who often, again, are red winners. If they're not in school, the temptation to keep them busy through work is very high. And I understand, actually, because the parents see if I leave them on the road in such an environment that's quite violent, most likely they're going to get into some kind of stressful situation. And depending on your status within the community, it's easier or harder for a parent to deal with. If they're working, they're more protective. So we need to provide alternatives to that. And I think the best alternative is our education. In terms of other recommendations, there is a need for policing that is friendly to youth, policing that preserves the peace, that's not only interested in specific operations. We have somebody has to be arrested or we need to do a certain action, but actually policing that's providing peace for youth, that's a resource to them if they feel unsafe. The issue of lack of security is often expressed even at their place of refuge. So these are some quick recommendations that I have that actually come very much from the youth. So thank you. Thank you. Now we have another two questions from Urania. Of course, again, it's letting me do work with the Hestia-Helas. Can you share with us the needs and strategies employed by Hestia-Helas to assist and improve the emotional well-being and build resilience of young people on the move? This is the first one. And the second, based on your work with young migrants and refugees, what recommendation do we have for government, aid organizations, society, and public young migrants as an individual and social level, shoot specific policies to be adopted? Okay. So our first and most important technique is actually counselling, psychotherapy sessions, which will work through the feelings that I mentioned before, disorientation, loneliness, and security. So these sessions bring the beneficiary in touch with reality in a way that it is tolerable. It builds up the strengths and resources of their own self and helps them then make decisions with a clearer mindset. The person is appreciated, something they are likely not to have felt during their journey or where they have lived. They are welcomed and hosted by Hestia. We recognize a deep value to them when Greek and other European citizens are warm and welcoming. So within the process of psychotherapy and the relationship that forms between the therapist and the beneficiary, he or she can process the bipolar aspect of ambivalence that is hatred and or love. Maybe you don't really understand what I mean here, but just keep it in your mind and then maybe you will come by it in some text and then you will remember me. Of course there is gratitude to the country that receives them, but feeling hatred usually doesn't have to do with let's say the Greek country. It is an emotion that derives from the fear of being abandoned, of not being wanted and the danger of being annihilated. That's why they become aggressive. That's why they need to take it out on someone. They need to like if they found someone who is peaceful just sitting there, they need to go and engage with them and really take it out on them. So if someone doesn't have a place to work through these emotions and have an active participation in the process, the consequence can be profound and damaging. So it is vital for us therapists not only to listen intently but to have the capacity to comprehend and hold these intense conflicting and ambivalent feelings if not the bad consequences are immense. So what I want to say is that okay listening is good and because we always talk about stories and narratives and stories, yes listening to a story is important but then you have to do something with that. Just listening to it, okay it will take off the intense emotions of that moment but then they will come again. So Hestia Helas is very actively participating in delivering good quality psychosocial support services with experienced psychologists and psychotherapists who are trained in combining individual psychotherapy with group psychotherapy. This combination covers all aspects of someone's personality traits and works on personal, social, cultural, spiritual issues within a safe space. We try to respect cultural and religious beliefs in the creation of the groups that I mentioned. We know that the wish of the people that we are seeing is to live Greece. For reasons that do not have anything to do with Greece as a country but with the reality that great people themselves have to deal with every day namely the economic crisis and all that it brings with it. I mean Greece is exporting youth and importing other youth from other countries. It's a bit sad but that's the reality. So at Hestia we also provide physiotherapy and reflexology therapeutic sessions as we are committed to combining psychological and physical therapy. Many of our beneficiaries have experienced physical trauma as well as mental trauma so working on both wounds at the same time has better results. So what do I have to recommend? I actually talked to a few young migrants that we see and other social workers from other organizations as well as our own. So I have this to recommend which is easy and immediate access to free health care from the moment they enter the country. Faster processes in order to move the minors from camps to unaccompanied minor shelters and faster processes for family reunifications. They take ages and the people, young people or minor children, they just wait and wait and wait so long. So access to education and proper support through integration classes, enough funding for shelters to be operational and funding to organizations like Hestia allows to keep doing the work they are doing. It is very important for these people who have been through multiple traumas and they are traumatized again in countries in the hosting countries because of all these things that take enormous time to be done. So let me show you here what the young people told me. Their first response was that they want faster processes. We need an answer now they said. We need to know if we are going to be allowed to live in this country in order to start learning the language and investing in our lives as citizens of Greece. It is another thing what they have in mind about if they don't find a job or if they don't find somewhere to study that they will go away.  It is something that I have heard from everybody that I have seen at least and that is really something that we should consider. Thank you very much. Thank you. Before I give the floor to the other participants, do you want to give another kind of last line that would like to underline what you would like to recommend? You did give your recommendations on education, you give basically more about the health and also on orientation upon arrival in Australia. But if you would like to add something, anything or you are satisfied with all? I think what is clear in terms of our experience and also in talking to youth is that their sense of well-being, what we often call is resilience, also lots of buzzwords within the NGO community, we could call survival, is very much connected to their families stability. Also my big recommendation is let us support these families to live more than at the very basic level. It reduces the tension and the stresses within the families which are then transferred to the youth whether through relationships that are very tense or whether having to be the breadwinners for that family to forego other basic things that will definitely affect their future such as education, health care and basically their choices. So by supporting families, communities, we will also support youth who are obviously affected by these things. Thank you. Thank you. Now the floor is up for the question, comments and suggestions. Do we have anybody from the floor that would like to please Arland, please. Thank you very much Mr. Moderator and first of all many thanks to the panelists. It's always very humbling I suppose is one of those words that people use in Oscar ceremonies and it's a horrible word but when you hear people who are at the cold face of helping it is an impressive experience. Just a question for Orania, you had mentioned that there are five fears and then you put four of them up and said you'll see the fifth. Is the fifth this fear of not knowing what the future is or is it something else? Thank you. Okay so it's actually a fear, it's the fear of insult and betrayal which after the fear of disorientation we have either fear of abandonment or this one when someone has been insulted in his personality. So all of these things we all go through when we go through major changes but imagine all of this combined with the trauma in the country of origin and the journey plus the insecurity in the country like in Greece when they arrive. So all of this really affect the future anyway especially if someone does not do something with all this. Did I respond to your question? Absolutely yes. I wasn't sure whether there was another slide that happened appeared but it effectively was there. I thought it was kind of a subset of the fear of abandonment but it is the fifth fear. Thank you UNFPA please. Hi thank you very much my name is Ruben from the UNFPA office and I know that we've been talking about physical and psychological well-being of migrant youth in different settings and the word violence has often come up. Within the range of different kinds of violence we obviously know that sexual violence is one of the threats that a lot of migrant youths are facing so I would really appreciate it if you can touch on any kind of experiences or actions that your different organisations or government is doing in the prevention but also in terms of aiding those victims of sexual violence within the process of migration. Thank you. Certainly the we're taking in cohorts from Central America so and that's obviously got a number of different throws to it but a lot of that is around if you like sort of gain violence for one of the better expression in certain countries within that Central American region and we also have had a lot of experience on the Horn of Africa and some of these other countries that have also had you know some of this and whether it's gender-based or other sort of forms of violence of course and and areas of of war which is what I kind of touched on but didn't really express in any great deal to detail because I'm not an expert I'm not a psychologist but we I we have quite and I use the word sophisticated let's call them detailed or vast or broad whatever word you want to use I don't want to presuppose how good they are but we have quite a wide range of torture and trauma counselling services and I use that as a broad term because I know that that means different things to different people and the reason we have that is is has been part a reaction to what we've seen as well as a proactive step for what we think we're going to see next and I think a very good example of that is what we've seen recently from that that Central American cohort because we feel we've seen this sort of stuff we think we're going to see what we've seen before and so we've sort of armed that moving forward how we actually deal that's not really my area of expertise so I can't really sort of go into the mechanics but I'm very very happy to have a chat with you offline to put you in touch with colleagues that can in terms of our work within the community we try to work both in terms of preventing this through making youth and children and their families aware of of inappropriate behaviors that others might do towards them how to prevent that and if that happens what mechanisms are there to prevent to support them and on the other hand we have a team that's only focused on protection issues so that's whether with children or those that are survived from GBV incidents and they will work directly with those individuals and also with government authorities when needed medical authorities and within that team we have social workers and psychologists to support so we're trying to work on both fronts both in terms of prevention and reacting or treatment if you will and as for Greece there are some programs specialized for people who have suffered sexual violence and we at Hestia we have people like that it's not something to help to prevent because when they come to Greece most of them they have already been assaulted so we just need to help them work through that and help them to not be victims again of such a thing if they go on to other countries does that answer your question maybe I can just contribute to your question through my previous experience from Central Asia I was the chief of mission in five Central Asian countries and with the countries of I am and with the countries of Central Asia basically we did the develop to get with the immigration center something was a pre-departure orientation where the migrants can receive information on the threats because yes they are very vulnerable on traveling but at the same time once that they arrive then actually they need to have to whom to contact and in case there's something like it could happen and then is also what was mentioned by Steve there is also post-arrival orientation once when somebody coming in particular country of course we are talking about those that organize in the sense they're traveling but for those that are actually coming on by themselves that's of course vulnerability is increasing and then of course the question of also not only the sexual violence but also somebody can be trafficked and in that sense can even more exploited and in that particular sense it's a it's a basically number of services that NGOs can provide with different assistance including I am assistance and you have a list of totally of 15 different services that somebody can receive but what is important to understand that we're talking about trafficking in human beings what is one type of exploitation is the sexual exploitation is that when the it's mostly youth and why is youth because they're thinking they're untouchable that they are young they can do it no problem and then it's a question how much are informed about each step of traveling and this is something that I think your question is very important that if somebody is have a desire to leave the country they actually need to learn about opportunities within the country what is actually mentioned here then what is the the the educational opportunity in the country then what is on transit and what is on the country of destination in that sense is very complex and actually in that sense each of parts of the roads needs to be equipped and be ready to send this information to the to the to the youth we basically also in the panel about when you talk about the using technologies then it's those application apps are very important what kind of information because nowadays migrants do have a telephones with potential to upside down and this is something I think we need to work more to equip the migrants with information is there any question for the floor because I don't want to talk too long because we have one more panel to go if somebody would like to still address the floor no then we are concluding this panel and then we will come to the last panel of the day and then after that we have a conclusion concluding remarks thank you a lot for a very valuable contribution to this work thank you

There's one car I've always wanted to see if I could fit into and that's the Volkswagen Golf. Let's give it a go. It's pretty much known now that I have to pull the seat back before I get in so let's just do that. I'm not liking my chances but let's give it a go. So I feel that if my min-cap is halfway up the steering wheel it's a fail. Let's move the steering wheel up. Yeah, okay. Sitting upright. No good. You know that video when Nelson Munn makes fun of that tall guy in the small car in the Simpsons. Cut to that clip. Yeah, that's me right now. Yeah, smells good though. Volkswagen make good cars, just not for tall people.


Hey there friends, thanks for checking in today. We're looking at a new reflex optic from shield sites Shield has been making optics for years a lot of people trust them They own the RMS footprint that has been copied by so many other optic producers But they received feedback from their customers and they said there's one thing Specific that we want from your optics that you don't offer and here's what it is This is an RMSC It has the battery Underneath the optic to replace the battery you have to pull off the optic and Swap out the battery that way and that also requires Resighting in the optic because unless you have the perfect torque with those screws You'll have to Resight it in at least touch it up a bit not so much with this model now here it is it's called the RMSD And if you go with this it'll come with the optic itself this nifty rubber cover cover plate a hex wrench for mounting a wrench for siding in an optional plate Four screws and a mini dial, but I'm going to keep this mounting wrench out because this is the very tool needed to Access the RMSD. What does the D stand for the D stands for drawer? There it is now notice It does not have a screw that you unscrew to take out that battery compartment See it's absent of that screw I've never seen an optic have a battery swap quite like this a little bit about the optic first It is aluminum housed. It has a hard-dip coated acrylic lens Which shield sight says that it is ten times stronger with Impact than glass. I like the way they have that cutout right there where you can access your your front sight You get a clear picture with the front sight that helps with siding in and it is auto brightness so Have your light conditions or shall I say brighter light conditions the dot will illuminate a little more low light conditions It'll dim down it has night vision and this is available with four MOA red dot or eight MOA red dot. This is a four MOA red dot and I have it mounted on my Hellcat Pro threaded. I think this is a a fine handgun and the combination is very nice So how do you operate the door? Well? It has this hole on the left side see that right there All you're gonna do is take this wrench and push it through and that will push out the door Have you ever seen anything like this? I haven't And I have a lot of pistols with red dots from there all you do take out the 1632 battery swap it out Throw it right back in there And you don't have to remove the optic from the pistol Which is a super cool thing that they did in the way they did that because the screws? That's fine. It works But yeah, you have to get the little screwdriver this you literally can swap out the optic in seconds So I mounted it on with a direct mount by the way on the Hellcat Pro threaded took it to the range Let's see how this thing works as I mentioned this is a new sight It is on their site you can look at it, but they don't have an MSRP yet It says it will be available soon. We're really not sure when it will be available or the MSRP So I was able to get my hands on this test it out. I didn't drop it or drag it behind the car or anything I just wanted to see how well that operated the whole concept is kind of cool without the screw there Just push it push the wrench through and open up that drawer or Sideloading battery compartment, but drawers just easier to say and Swap out the battery the dot is clear as can be can't see it on camera You can these things never pick up on camera as hard as you try they just don't do it But the dot is clear the hard-dipped coated acrylic lens is cool You won't necessarily notice with the acrylic lens Compared to glass you're not going to say oh, that's a cool acrylic lens It's clear that it is you won't notice that but perhaps being that's 10 times stronger if you drop your gun You may notice especially a hard drop But anyways, it has all the makings that people love about shield with the RMS footprint and everything so many Pistols available with that or they offer optic plates available at the RMS footprint, but so far. I'm happy with it I have other shield sites. They're fine. What would I like from shield? I would like Shake awake. This is not shake awake the average battery life and dark conditions is two years The good news is you don't have to remove the optic to swap out the battery. That's the draw here It's called the shield RMS D available soon. Hopefully You you like it and check it out and I'm hoping they price it well So a lot of people can enjoy the benefits of quick and easy battery swaps with a quality optic from shield sites I Certainly enjoy it. I found it a very easy sighted at the range barely touched it So it comes out of the box pretty well sighted in for probably just a compact sized pistol like this minor adjustments Got it on target.

So not being able to participate in any kind of early access for Cyberpunk, I can't bring you guys my opinion on it yet. But with it being December 7th, the date in which said people who had early access can drop reviews on the game, today we check out what people think of Cyberpunk 2077. So over the past day or so we have seen many reviews of this game coming out from multiple sources, from content creators to news outlets. I myself watch almost every review on this game on YouTube, from creators dedicated to Cyberpunk, to people who critique things for a living. Now I will talk a little about independent reviews from creators after we check out what press and media sources make of this game. Now some of these are harsh, some not so much, so let's go. So you gamer said, beyond the bombast and debugs, Cyberpunk 2077 has a very human heart. Gaming former say, an open world you can get lost in and continue finding new things to do. GameSpot said, Cyberpunk 2077 has standout side quests and strong main characters, though its buggy superficial world and lack of purpose bring it down. Games beat say, it's fine to make a game like that, for many that's the promise of Cyberpunk 2077, it just wasn't the promise to me. Games radar say, what Cyberpunk 2077 lacks in core campaign length, it makes up for with depth and soul, offering a world of intrigue and violence unlike any other. Geekook should say, collective imagination of the team at CD Projekt Red knows no bounds. Cyberpunk 2077 certainly took a while to come to our hands, but be glad it's finally here for its ear to stay for a long time to come. Giant Bomb said, early impressions They should have delayed this game even more. One word, undercooked. Ouch. God is a Geek said, despite a few flaws, Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the most consistently astounding pieces of media I've ever had the pleasure of consuming. IGN said, Cyberpunk 2077 thrills you into a beautiful, dense cityscape and offers a staggering amount of flexibility in how you can choose to take it from there. PC Gamer said, some nice characters and stories nested in an astounding open world, undercut by jarring bugs at every turn. PC Games N said, groundbreaking but not quite as much as you're hoping it is. Cyberpunk 2077 doesn't surpass its brilliant influences, but in Night City, Johnny Silverhand and its chilling vision of hypercapitalism, it claims territory of its own. Polygon said, Cyberpunk 2077 is Dad Rock, not New Wave.  Other times, it has all the charm of a moody, edgy teenager. Screen Rant said, ultimately, it feels like Cyberpunk 2077 is a fitting bookend for the previous generation of games and a strong starting point for current gen. Now it's time to start innovating a game. The Digital Fix said, CD Projekt Red has set a new standard for what can be achieved in this sandbox. Cyberpunk 2077 is taking open world game into the next generation. The Gamer website said, I can't get Cyberpunk 2077 out of my head. I've had it a week and played 70 hours, like a digital personality loaded onto a biochip. It felt like stepping into another life for a while. It's a life I can't wait to relive. Trusted Reviews say, CD Projekt Red has created the triumphant RPG experience with Cyberpunk 2077, yet it often falters under the weight of its own ambition, thanks to inconsistent writing and narrative. And VD247 say, it's easy to get carried away with what Cyberpunk 2077 could have been. The final experience might be more familiar than many predicted, with plenty of elements that aren't perfect, but it's dripping with detail and engaging stories. So there are a few different opinions there which recovered people which more or less concluded the fact that Cyberpunk is indeed a great game, but if for sure is not perfect. And to be honest, I will ask you guys this question. Did you actually think this would be? Because I didn't. I knew from the amount of delays this game had, I knew from when it arrived it wouldn't be that perfect game. And well, it isn't. From the review videos I've seen also where everyone who did get early access to this had it only on PC. None on consoles at all. But almost every review I saw said the same thing. The game right now wasn't ready to be shipped, although the game is an incredible game, it suffers with many bugs. Reviewers also got a 40 plus gigabyte patch, which is different to the day zero patch, and this patch was meant to iron out many bugs these people were experiencing, yet it barely touched the surface. I mean most people I've seen have said they experienced game breaking bugs to a point of having to reset the game every 30 minutes. I've seen people mention objects in dialogue not appearing, buses trawling in place when fighting, NPCs freezing requests and much much more. Now like I said for the most part the bugs were overshadowed by reviewers in the fact of them stating the game is still incredible, and we also know guys at CDPR stay on top of things when it comes to games, just like they have the Witcher 3. And I'm quite sure going into the near future said bugs the people that are experiencing or have experienced will be ironed out. How quick this will happen though, we don't know. The day one patch would definitely sort some issues out, but all of them, well that I ain't sure I'll run. I'm still optimistic about the game and cannot wait for it, even though it will be here in just a couple of days for us all to play. And even with these bugs guys, the game's ratings actually amazing right now, with a meta score of 91 and an amazing open critic rating too, as I'm recording this video. So yes, even with said bugs which we know CDPR will eventually take care of, this game still seems to take order at boxes for the most part. And on that note guys, the end of the video has arrived.

But guys, thanks as always for stopping by, hopefully you enjoyed the video and hopefully I will see you on that next one.


I'm Salvatore Bobonis and today's lecture is Post-Politics and Post-Representative Democracy. Social movements like Occupy Wall Street, the Indignados of Spain and Greece, and Nuit de Beau in France and Belgium have brought many people out into the streets. But for what purpose? Though these movements are clearly concerned with political issues, they make no attempt to gain political power. Instead they seem to represent a new form of post-politics in which participants' main goal is self-expression. In the world of post-modern identities, representative politics as such may no longer be possible because no single political party can represent the complex post-modern individual. The 2011-2012 Occupy Wall Street movement in New York City was the most visible form of protest against the mismanagement of the global financial crisis. The most recognizable symbol of Occupy Wall Street and the world's various Occupy movements that occurred all over the world in 2011-2012 and 2013 has been the ubiquitous V for Fendetta or Guy Fawkes Mask. This mask originated in England as part of Guy Fawkes Day celebrations.  It was an anarchist who attempted to blow up the English Parliament in the early 1600s. But the movie V for Fendetta featured an anti-hero anarchist who wore the Guy Fawkes Mask to hide his identity.  But these movements have been primarily concerned with protest, not with actually seeking political power, where movements like these have sought political power or have gained political power. They've fractured immediately. So in the United States, Occupy really shifted the agenda. It put inequality on the national and even on the world agenda, but then dissolved into internet activism and fundraising for candidates and online criticism and a myriad of websites in the U.S. that host commentary about politics. But where are the candidates? Where are the policies? Very little seems to have changed. Crises Indignados brought the left-wing Syriza party to power, and then that party immediately signed an austerity agreement with the European Union. Going back on the word it gave to its own voters that it would be a different kind of political party that would not agree to austerity conditions placed by the European Central Bank. Spain's Indignados movement splintered into something like a dozen political parties when people tried to turn from protest into actual politics. In Italy, the five-star movement is coalesced around the comedian Beppo Grillo. But Grillo says that he will not run for office, in fact has not yet run for office. The movement elected over 100 representatives to the Italian parliament, but plays no role in government, and it's unclear if it ever will play any role in government. And perhaps the most fascinating and most influential of the Occupy type movements, the Anonymous Hacker movement remains, of course, anonymous. The Anonymous movement has explicitly embraced the Guy Fawkes mask as the symbol of the movement. The Anonymous movement has punished governments, corporations, and individuals that its members feel have behaved badly. In many ways, Anonymous is a kind of global online vigilante police force fighting for justice online. But it's hard to be an anonymous online movement and actually govern in any positive way, pushing people for corruption or lying or bad behavior is one thing. Actually governing in a positive way is something completely more challenging. These kinds of post-political movements often espouse direct democracy or deliberative democracy, as kinds of post-representative democracy. The idea is that the world needs to move from representative democracy, which is irredeemably corrupt as politicians try to raise money for campaigns and merely represent the powerful interests who contribute to their campaigns, that we need to transition from that kind of democracy to a more direct democracy. The problem is that direct democracy, as it has existed in the past, has depended on representative institutions to create the very referendums that get voted on in direct democracy. Now, Occupy and Anonymous and similar movements have moved beyond referendums to propose a new form of deliberative democracy in which people directly engage in discussions to debate the future direction of society. The problem is that these forms of discussions only seem to work well for very narrowly circumscribed very local issues. For example, when a city government says that it will allocate $10,000 to improve a particular park, residents who live in the neighborhood of that park might be motivated to come together to discuss how to best spend the money. But this doesn't seem to translate into a larger scale. It also is in many ways very unrepresentative in that only the people who turn out to deliberate end up having a say. We also have a very large body of social psychological research that shows that in open deliberations those people who are more educated and more outspoken and who have stronger views tend to push the discussion in their direction so that as a result the outcome that arrives from deliberation, while it may seem like it was a group outcome that everyone had an equal say in, in fact represents the views of the kinds of highly motivated activists who wanted to have the discussion in the first place. But the biggest criticism of deliberative democracy seems to be that it's simply difficult how it to imagine how it could work in a mass society. Other than the very simplistic idea of putting proposals on an online platform like Facebook and having people give them thumbs up and thumbs down, it's hard to imagine how we could organize the kinds of complex laws that go into hundreds of pages, how these kind of laws could be deliberated and decided on by people in an open forum having unlimited discussion and an unlimited opportunity to express their views. Instead of resulting in productive positive politics, deliberative democracy instead seems to result largely in critique and self-expression. It's an opportunity for people to have their say, not an opportunity to actually create new and better forms of government. If democracy itself, if representative democracy was a response to modernity, it may be killed off by the emergence of the postmodern self. What we see in Occupy and in similar post-political movements is the self being embraced, that the personal rewards of being engaged in political debate seem to be more important to the participants than actually getting things done. Thus we see a transition from the modern self that is composed of people who can be represented by particular parties taking particular viewpoints to a very complex postmodern self in which people have multiple identities, multiple points of view that can only be expressed in a full complexity of conversation but can't be represented by a single up or down vote on any issue. If you find yourself thinking about a political issue and saying to yourself, on the one hand I see one side of the issue, but on the other hand I see the other side of the issue, you are taking a postmodern view of the issue. And while that approach may be logical, correct, valid, and meaningful, that way of thinking does not result in clear decisions to take one position or the other position. The transition from the modern self to the postmodern self may have made us all much more, it may have made for a much more rewarding experience for all of us, but it has made people much less governable. Occupy Wall Street was the exemplar of a series of postmodern, post-political, critical social movements. Second, Occupy-type movements espoused forms of deliberative democracy that are in many ways post-political, not concerned with the acquisition of actual political power. Finally, the postmodern self may simply be unrepresentable, resulting in a transition to post-representative democracy, which is something that frankly we don't yet know what it will look like.
