How revelant is this content to us?
He’s just telling others that people are getting more stupid by spending countless hours watching useless videos wasting their times just to get frustrated?
This is insane. TED is inviting idiots to tell stupidities to the audience. And how come people like this bullshit and still applaud it?

I would say, this is a public experiment of how some humans love to organize, categorize, alphabetize and generalize everything in order to make sense of the world around them and the frustrations and furious responses that arise when it doesn’t make sense, line up, fit together or add up. Then hilarity ensues as we try to will chaos into order. It’s like an uncanny valley or not being able to get past a certain point in a video game after 300 tries. Says a lot about the human brain.
