Unless you're taking the piss its a organisation with a yt channel that invites ppl to talk about random stuff, give short conferences on everyday life, etc. The apollo robbins video is a ted talk

They also censor stuff they don't agree with (Graham Hancock, Rupert Sheldrake) or they consider 'too political' (Nick Hanauer), in addition to not paying their speakers, expecting them to stay 'on site' and network with TED patrons to secure more funding for the duration of their visit, and disbarring/banning people outright who break curfew or refuse to comply with this rules (Eddie Huang).

So being interested in what you see and hear is symptomatic of an absence of wit & critical mind ? I don't give a shit about the organisation, gonna check up on what you said but that doesn't change the fact for me that their speakers tell interesting things

Never said it wasn't, you're putting words into an argument that really isn't there.

Sorry if I came across as vindictive, mistook the hitler comment for a cynical one on my lack of information in regards to ted

The behaviour I've mentioned above from TED stands up to izan overtones, IMO.
