  2. He did say the things that were interesting about united states becoming an information society! I can tell you this. Living in southeast asia our biggest jobs here are call centers which are notorious low paying jobs that's what america is heading for! You're standing of living is going to be horrible. No more million dollar houses. 150 cultures and stuff all fighting for government free stuff. Your children and grandchildren hating you. Give it another 10 20 years.$35 T dead certainly doesn't help. You may even be back on the barter system and what do you have the offer to the big shot money men. Nothing you will be a drag on the economy if you don't have special skills! Good luck. America First

  4. Really it's a shame and I'm actually pretty sad. I was so proud to live in a nation of freedom, liberty and justice for all (for the most part) …now I'm downright ashamed and embarrassed. Who would ever think that a party could be hijacked !! Up until 2015 I'd of said that's ludicrous !! How can you " hijack" a national party. Id label you a nut !!!! Stranger than fiction….is so so true.!! 🇺🇸

  11. Carl Sagan would have been a Victim of the Woke Mob and cancelled if he were alive today…..His achievements, college degrees and real life experience would have been ignored or discredited and in the end he would have been labeled some sort of ISTAPHOBE…Absolutely disgusting how delusional the America People have become.

  20. When he made the comment about humanoids not existing on other planets it was assumed that DNA had to evolve on earth as it could not survive in deep space. However in 2020 Scientists discovered that Nucleobases from meteorites frozen in a glacier a million years old when thawed out came back to life. This shows that meteorites can spread our DNA all across the galaxy

  25. Read books. Turn off the news. Read books. Turn off the news. Read books. Turn off the news.

    Walter Lippmann

  26. You don't have to go so far as another galaxy, even a planet around another star in our neighborhood with possibilities for life, would have totally different looking creatures.

  28. I don't agree with what he said. Here is why. there are many examples where the universe has settled on a "design". for example there are no Square planets, the universe has settled on a design. Or planetary orbits, you don't see examples of planets revolving around the star. It's always the star in the middle. How come planets aren't made out of Jello? Because the universe has settled on the use of rock for creating planets.

  30. "…unable to distinguish what feels good and what is true…"

    That's the Trump/Woke era in a nutshell. Extremes of people without a working brain hrowing dangerous tantrums at each other.

  33. More striking still, is how accurately Sagan predicted Donald Trump and the MAGA morons.

    “One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.”

  34. Carl Sagan was a much more successful prophet than any in the Bible, except where prophesies are written after the event occurred which was the common Biblical tactic. Sagan was extremely observant and based his foreboding (which turned out to be justified) on what he witnessed. Many of us saw this coming but, he goes the farthest back of anyone I know of.

  35. this eerily reminds of that famous MGS2 clip often shown… similar fashion looking to future 20+ years. Similar topics, just a bit earlier.
