8:00. This is powerful. It’s not that the media is purposely spreading falsehoods, it’s that they themselves do not know

Top Comments : [TED] How not to be ignorant about the world | Hans and Ola Rosling

je******************:

"Nothing is more responsible for the 'Good Old Days' than a Bad Memory"
- F.P. Adams 1964

Na*********:

Excellent and exceptional presentation, the Roslings are brilliant in understanding the simplicity of man. Facts are universal and opinions are subjective, I am deeply motivated to increase my insight and knowledge, my humble gratitude.

Qu******:

I am saddened by this news... May he rest in peace and his idea(l)s spread all over the world! We need people like this to change for the best. And we will. Thank you for your work Hans, and keep going, Ola!

Mr**********:

Love the way the comments just show more and more continuing bias and ignorance - personal bias, wrong facts, bad data, news bias...TOP TIP: watch the whole video before commenting

JT********:

"You've been beaten by ze shimps."

Sp*******:

I have a new hero.

Fi**********:

What a legend, such a novel way of speaking and presenting important information!

To****:

Turn our weakness, our gift of intuition, into our strength. Love this.

gy****:

this made my day, my week, my month and my year!

cr*****:

How not to be ignorant:
Don't accept candy-coated descriptions of a toxic economic system.

fr*****:

I wish this video went viral.  Especially among journalists and teachers.  But it won't.

To*************:

Noice... I got all the multiple choice questions right! I'll take my cookie in chocolate chip form! :D

Me*********:

RIP.. :'(

Pe************:

Rest In Peace, Hans <3

sa******:

There should have been a  "I don't know" choice.

go***********:

as my mental health dependent on the positivity of the news, i am actually touched by this ted talk ♡

Ra*************:

Just died today.. so sad. Rest in peace.. <3

Ev******:

I could listen to this guy talk all day. He reminds me of the professor who's always high on caffeine from RWBY.

Do*********:

what would be a really interesting idea is if instead of using those bits of information to make a global awareness test, it was used to make a new criteria for journalism. This would change the question of "what is the most sensational bit of news " to "what is the most (objectively) important bit of news".

Br************:

That's a nice exponential axis you've got there..

An************:

The certificate idea feels a little odd to me but there's certainly room for each of us to do our own research before we jump to conclusions on one or two facts presented by a teacher, politician or the media.

Cl*******:

I am rarely impressed but this human was one whom I really did find remarkable. I called him my "Data Angel" -- someone who promoted facts from a factual POV vs a FEAR POV. When I first met him in 2010, I was giggling with glee. Watch all you can as we can learn so much from him. My sincere condolences to his family. He died far too young, and thankfully has left a real legacy.

Se********:

Im so grateful to stumble upon this today in 2019. We are at the peak of crisis and disaster again. We can still prevent this!

And heres a joke for you reading this. Why are all the swedes dank memers haha. Thanks for reading. From the USA and love the idea of coming together. This is the bridge...

R*:

we lost a good man, rip

Ke*******:

The old guy is a great speaker, especially for a public official

Pa*****:

RIP. RIP, Hans Rosling. :/

Ch******:

Hans and Ola just makes me think of Han Solo.

Ad****:

Deaths from disasters (as a total number) should take into account that the population has exploded since 1900, so it's even more remarkable.

Er***********:

I'm conflicted. As a Norwegian, I'm programmed to think that the greatest fools on the planet are Swedes. On the other hand, as a European, I'm programmed to think that it's Americans. It rarely comes to a point with a direct comparison. Americans definitely came closer to the truth than the Swedes. However, they also got a result closer to random. So, what's worse? Not following the news and be right by random chance, or following the news and be consistently wrong?

P.S.: Don't worry about the apparent anti-Swedish prejudice. Scandinavia was at constant war, until 205 years ago, when we started making fun of each other, instead. Since then, only jokes and insults have been fired across the borders. As for the apparent anti-American prejudice... Well, I'm just human. When a target gets too tempting, I start shooting -- but only insults and jokes.

Ek*****************:

How not to be Ignorant of the world? Stay curious, do research, don't simply believe what you hear on the news or from your friends. Look it up. Want evidence of a decrease in poverty besides just the 1.25 2005 inflation adjusted poverty rate? You want to look also at other markers such as childhood mortality. Yes, the world as a whole is improving, but we still have another huge challenge ahead of us. This too will require science and technology, corporation from NGOs governments engineers, volunteers and the like.

Yo*****:

I heard the phrase "false confidence" i thought it was pretty interesting because it seemed like they want to get rid of that part of ignorance. But i think we all forget that the false confidence is what pushes us as humans into our next step in life. False confidences best example is im the king of the world quote. Now you know your not the king of the world. But in that moment you feel like you can do anything and thats what makes you take that next step that you maybe wouldnt have taken on a regular day
