Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

They went mask off the second bill gates bought them out.

Not sure what the vid is about and I don't care to watch. Feels like an odd video for them. They should stick to making mildly thought provoking videos about space and ant colonies.

[–] jaeme@hexbear.net 26 points 2 years ago

Their ant videos were classics, now they just do pop science that just barely managed to not cross over the edge of being an obvious propaganda stunt to their audience.

The franchise was well past the point of no return by the time of the "if 99% of humanity died off from climate collapse, rejoice because that is still a net win for humanity because vague hopes of innovation and rich assholes magically thriving with their offspring after that" video. bootlicker

I don't like how it starts off with the sensationalist "millions of people will disappear". A lot of this stuff is undergrad environmental science but packaged in an orientalist way to drive clicks.

Also they will never ever confront capitalism lmao. Don't want to anger their donors.

It's just more social democratic nonsense that ignores labor value and the fact that declining birth rates are either due to state intervention (China) or a greater share of surplus going to the wealthy

[–] adultswim_antifa@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I didn't think it was that bad. It says birthrates are low because people can't afford to have kids. And it's harder to raise kids now because people are more atomized. And it rejects overpopulation.

it rejects overpopulation

Alright. No more Bill Bucks for you, mister

It's OK, only African population growth is bad. us-foreign-policy

Reminder that one of Epstein’s projects was funding and fundraising studies and researchers to fulfill his fantasy of spreading his seed throughout the world

I saw this but thought better than to click. Maybe I'll click

I haven't watched a kurzgesagt since that one video on climate change, I just can't anymore, it was so bad I think I still have trauma from it.
