The problem with the modern world is that we live in a world where everything is a joke. Everything needs to be covered in a layer of irony to keep us safe and secure in the knowledge that no one is going to take us seriously if we treat ourselves as if nothing is holy. But I can assure you that if you treat yourself as a joke to others, no one will take you seriously. And if they do, then they will not have to deal with the heat that comes with standing up for something you believe in.

00:00:00.000 Greetings. Today we will admire my new artwork.
00:00:04.000 It's a picture from a speech William held during the election campaign.
00:00:11.000 And I thought it was so epic because that is passion in its purest form.
00:00:17.000 And I thought to elaborate a bit on it so you know what is up when you see it in the background of coming videos.
00:00:24.000 And a large problem I see both for the West as a entity that is out on thin ice.
00:00:32.000 And also in terms of the well-being of many people in the modern world is the irony culture.
00:00:40.000 The lack of passion, the lack of conviction, the lack of any true guidelines in life.
00:00:48.000 So you have a lot of guys who nothing is holy for them. Everything is a joke.
00:00:53.000 They view themselves as a joke. So they have to make everything else a joke also.
00:00:58.000 And this is obviously an attitude that I absolutely encourage you to not come near.
00:01:06.000 And what we have to keep in mind here is that humor is great to have.
00:01:09.000 I have a great sense of humor as well. And I'm very humble.
00:01:13.000 If you look at my Games Kitchen videos these are more light-hearted videos.
00:01:17.000 Whereas other videos are more serious-minded.
00:01:20.000 And that is because sometimes you can be 100% serious.
00:01:24.000 Have a deep talk about a sensitive issue.
00:01:27.000 And some other times it can be more light-hearted banter.
00:01:31.000 That is completely fine.
00:01:32.000 Now the problem is that a lot of guys in the modern world they see everything as a joke.
00:01:38.000 Everything needs to be covered in a layer of irony.
00:01:41.000 And what you have to keep in mind here is that that layer of irony is a shield they hide behind.
00:01:47.000 Because they are not courageous enough to have severe convictions.
00:01:50.000 They are too afraid to say, I stand 100% for this particular thing.
00:01:56.000 And it might be whichever cause it is.
00:01:59.000 They don't have the guts to say, you know what, I make no apologies.
00:02:02.000 I have no excuses, I believe in this 100%.
00:02:06.000 For many of these guys it's the usual excuses to not have to deal with any heat.
00:02:13.000 So they say, oh, I did this ironically.
00:02:16.000 I supported this ironically.
00:02:18.000 I only said these things ironically.
00:02:20.000 And I don't really believe in that.
00:02:22.000 And that's obviously a...
00:02:24.000 They're tapping out.
00:02:25.000 That's a way out.
00:02:26.000 That's an exit.
00:02:27.000 That's a way for them to not have to stand firm in the storm.
00:02:30.000 So to speak.
00:02:31.000 So if you look at this glorious photo once again.
00:02:33.000 This man is a great man.
00:02:35.000 This man is a hero.
00:02:36.000 This man stands 100% for the people of Sweden.
00:02:40.000 He doesn't make any excuses for that at all.
00:02:42.000 He doesn't hide behind a layer of irony.
00:02:45.000 He does it and people respect him for it.
00:02:49.000 And that's also something you need to keep in mind.
00:02:52.000 If you treat yourself as a joke.
00:02:54.000 If everything is a joke to you.
00:02:56.000 No one will take you seriously.
00:02:58.000 But if you can say to other people that.
00:03:01.000 This is what I stand for.
00:03:03.000 100%.
00:03:04.000 I am a fanatic in this regard.
00:03:06.000 Yeah.
00:03:07.000 Then people can trust you more.
00:03:08.000 Because then they know what your true motive is.
00:03:11.000 And they can also respect someone who stands up for himself.
00:03:14.000 Or stands up for a true cause.
00:03:16.000 So to conclude.
00:03:17.000 Drop the irony.
00:03:19.000 Utilize humor whenever it is appropriate.
00:03:22.000 But also have moments where you can say that this is deadly serious.
00:03:25.000 This is not a joking matter.
00:03:27.000 This is sacred.
00:03:28.000 This is holy.
00:03:29.000 And also another thing about the modern world.
00:03:31.000 That teaches us that nothing is holy.
00:03:34.000 Yeah of course people will become hedonistic.
00:03:36.000 And not take anything seriously if nothing is holy.
00:03:39.000 But I can tell you this.
00:03:40.000 There are things that are holy.
00:03:42.000 There are things that you are definitely encouraged to take 100% seriously.
00:03:47.000 And also lastly.
00:03:48.000 I can assure you that you will live a more fulfilled life.
00:03:51.000 A life that is more motivating.
00:03:54.000 And is more energetic.
00:03:55.000 And more intense.
00:03:56.000 And more glorious.
00:03:57.000 And more fun also.
00:03:59.000 If you actually live for something higher than the next instant gratification.
00:04:03.000 As these ironic guys do.
00:04:06.000 So.
00:04:07.000 Take the glorious pill.
00:04:09.000 Get some passion into your life.
00:04:11.000 Stand for something.
00:04:12.000 Embark upon an epic quest.
00:04:13.000 And don't hide behind some sort of ironic excuse.
00:04:17.000 Say.
00:04:18.000 Oh.
00:04:19.000 This is just a joke.
00:04:20.000 If you say that.
00:04:21.000 The only joke is you.
00:04:22.000 XXO.
00:04:23.000 Boom.
00:04:24.000 The wszystkich you got to be there.
00:04:41.000 Don't hide behind the house.
00:04:43.000 Just save the money.
00:04:44.000 Please let us know.
00:04:45.000 Not be with the money.
00:04:46.000 No 65,000 people will remember it.
00:04:50.000 We'll see when we're here.
00:04:51.000 We'll die. 0.95
