Dive into the powerful ideas of Jean-Jacques Rousseau as explored in this video on his "Discourse on the Origin of Inequality." Discover how Rousseau believed that humanity began in a state of natural freedom and self-reliance, only to be corrupted by the rise of property, social classes, and artificial hierarchies. The video examines how progress, often driven by vanity and the desire for status, may actually increase human dependence and unhappiness. It challenges viewers to question whether modern society’s advancements truly represent freedom or if they mask deeper inequalities. Thought-provoking and timely, this video invites you to reflect on the possibility that a simpler, more authentic life could lead to greater happiness and true liberty.
