The experiment failed
🕑 Added 2021-12-20 15:03:44 +0000 UTCok, I tried to sit down and write a script for a video that was intended to be only 5 minutes long, and I failed completely and miserably. So I am putting this idea on the ice for now. I might return to it later, and somehow figure out how to write something that is not a bloated information bomb, but for the time being I am returning to the video on the Greek debt crisis.
Oh, and btw, I know some of you expressed fears that my next video was going to be a tabloid "lazy greeks" narrative that was so popular in 2010 populist political circles. Trust me, it wont be. I know that narrative is untrue. We will be looking more into the political structures that caused a state to become so corrupt.

Will this be a deep dive into Greek clientelism and its origin?
I really dig that quote, but hate Wilson with a passion that burns so hotly as to belie the decades between his death and my birth, so I find myself conflicted, inspired and annoyed. Well done. Well done.

To add another quote: "That depends on the length of the speech. If it is a ten-minute speech it takes me all of two weeks to prepare it; if it is a half-hour speech it takes me a week; if I can talk as long as I want to it requires no preparation at all. I am ready now." Woodrow Wilson.
