For me it’s Skallagrim. This is a channel of a guy who specializes in ancient armory and weaponry, he also reviews swords and stuff that’s sold online and tests them. Pretty cool.
But then I started to not like him for some reason and it took me a while to put my finger on it. Until I saw the video where he tried criticizing weapons in video games. Then that was where I found problems with him as a channel.
His personality comes off very pretentious and one of those pseudointellectuals you know, who try sounding smarter than they really are. He even has the voice tone to back that with.
So yeah I really once loved his channel. Though whenever he goes on tirades about things that are meant for fantasy purposes which aren’t supposed to make sense when translated to reality, as well as try to poke at fictitious things that borrow from ancient history, I feel he misses the plot of his entire channel and why people like me once subscribed to it.
We didn’t subscribe to your channel for your stupid takes on - anything. We subscribed because you seem to know your melee weapons and historical backgrounds of said weaponry. Stick to those.
Kurzegast (or however it is spelled). Lot’s of copium and straight up denial, e.g. with respect to climate change.
I felt that the outrage was solely related to vaccines and the gates foundation was the nail in the coffin for those people. Good riddance imo, why are anti science people watching a science channel anyways?
What video do they deny climat change in? If anything, I find their videos explain the concepts of how it’s happening and what it will result it (bad shit) super well.
Imo, I respect them cause they are transparent with the comunity. Of they make a mistake, they will reupload a video of required. Few other channels (especially as big as them) would do that
They work with the Gates Foundation, which pressured Oxford University into selling exclusive rights to their covid vaccine to Astrazeneca, after promising it would be free to all manufacturers.
Educational channels especially should choose their sponsors wisely.
I don’t know anything about this pressure campaign you mentioned but do they still work with them? It’s not like Kurzgesagt have no say over what the Gates Foundation does. If they still work together then that’s not great but the Gates Foundation has also done lots of good stuff too, no? Idk what outweighs what but I think there are organisations that are far worse that we should be concerned about.
Given how rapidly things are deteriorating, I guess you could say “well it was 3 years ago.” Clickbait title aside, this one seems really heavy on the copium to me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxgMdjyw8uw
Almost the first half of the video is them saying we haven’t been meeting any climate change targets.
I don’t think it’s copium to highlight the good things that have been changing like the fact wind and solar are straight up the cheapest energy sources. If there was no good news they wouldn’t have made the video
