Watch Awesome Illustrated Lecture ‘Smile or Die’ Video | The Hazards of Positive Thinking

24 sec read

In this illustrated lecture, Barbara Ehrenreich talks about the delusional idea that we can change the world with our thoughts and how the push for positive thinking is one way government controls the masses.

One more push for realism instead of idealism.

I quite liked the illustration of the lecture in this video, but it is really the lecture itself I found to be quite fascinating.

Who would have thought this whole, big push for ‘you just have to change your attitude’ could be screwing us over like that.

I have always said that I would rather be a realist than a pessimist or optimist. I guess I made the right choice.
