Transcripts
di Indonesia negara tercinta ini memang
selalu punya banyak masalah dari dijajah
ratusan tahun pejabat-pejabat yang
makanan favoritnya uang suap dan tentu
aja pendidikan yang bikin kita konsisten
masuk 10 besar dunia dalam kemampuan
baca berhitung dan science tapi dari
bawah tapi diluar itu semua ada satu
masalah besar yang sebenarnya mungkin
kita sering terlewat dan dari dua tahun
sebelum teks proklamasi dibacakan
ternyata ada tokoh yang udah memprediksi
ini yaitu alasan kenapa Indonesia sulit
maju Siapakah dia dan apakah masalah itu
sebenarnya
[Musik]
dia adalah Bapak Republik Indonesia
tahun Malaka dia bilang kalau masalah
bangsa kita adalah cara berpikir yang
sesat dan tertutup selalu ngikutin
hal-hal mistis dan tahayul Kenapa begitu
karena baginya ini ibarat bermain dengan
apik Hai yang bahaya karena mental kayak
gini bikin orang-orang Malas berpikir
dan nyerah sama nasi dan ujungnya jadi
gampang ditipu dan di kendali in sama
orang yang lebih pinter
Benarkah dan kalau begitu apa yang mesti
kita lakuin
pertama kita harus akuin dulu bawah hal
kayak gini itu emang masih terjadi di
negara kita
Iya bergantung ke mitos bukannya mikir
secara rasional
contohnya kalau mau lulus ujian bukannya
belajar malah pakai jimat kena penyakit
yang harusnya karantina malah lari ke
orang yang katanya pinter dan begitu ada
tetangga yang punya duit banyak malah
dituduh suka jaga lilin malam-malam dan
mungkin kemalasan berpikir ini jugalah
yang akhirnya bikin kita gampang kena
kabar palsu oke oke sebelum kita jadi
gitu juga Hai coba latihan mikirin benar
gimana caranya
simpelnya Coba bayangin tiga checklist
ini ketika kita mikir harus ada buktinya
jalan pikiran gak blebet dan yakin bahwa
kita bisa aja salah masih belum kebayang
nah coba kita ambil kasus dari si babi
jadi-jadian Kita bisa mulai dari
bertanya habis itu bikin dugaan
hai habis itu kita perlu eksperimen atau
seenggaknya nyari jawaban dari sumber
yang bisa dipercaya
baru dari situlah kita bisa menarik
kesimpulan dan cara ini jugalah yang
bisa kita terapkan saat mikirin yang
lain Jadi barat tangga kita mesin
langkah satu persatu
Hai Jangan lompat ke paling atas dan
abis itu pun kita masih terbuka saat ada
bukti baru yang nunjukin kalau kita itu
salah
yo yo ngomong ngomong kalau kita lihat
lebih luas sebenarnya hal kayak gini itu
enggak cuma terjadi di Indonesia karena
pernah ada Mas di Eropa yang saking
orang-orang yang percaya mitos dan
tahayul dulu dikenal sebagai zaman
kegelapan kalau tadinya ilmu melaju
pesat tiba-tiba berhenti kayak girang
rusak makan contohnya saat Black Dave
menyerang Eropa dulu orang yang kena
wabah itu dianggap sebagai kutukan
sehingga mereka ramai-ramai ngumpul di
pusat kota dan berdoa dan Iya itulah
yang malah bikin makin meluas wabah nya
Hai kali ini gue bisa enggak sendiri
kalau kalian pengen cari tahu lagi tapi
Indonesia belum maju silahkan ke channel
inspect history untuk nonton videonya
tapi intinya selalu inget kalo kita
punya senjata yang kuat untuk maju yaitu
sakit bertanya ia bertanya pertanyaan
apapun yang ada disekitar kita cari tau
jawabannya dengan gitu sama-sama kita
bisa buat Indonesia yang punya pikiran
yang merdeka dimulai dari diri kita
sendiri dan seperti biasa Terima kasih
[Musik]
