So the channel Kurzgesagt was being funded by the Big Pharma this whole time right?

[chansei_03]

They're being financed by the Bill Gates foundation, the same guy who didn't allow Covid vaccines to be distributed for free around the world, the same who was also involved in that Epstein incident... and the same guy who is also trying to force public opinion into thinking that being vegan is ok, and that we should eat bugs, while they eat good food and spend 10k on a champagne

Why i'm not even surprised by this?

that channel is a liberal propaganda machine designed to reel in those straying too far left because of concern with the environment and shore up trust in the capitalist elite. Its too bad, I liked their videos when I was younger, and they are mostly true about basic facts, but once you learn anything yourself, its obvious they are lying by ommission to a great extent, and are firmly in the hands of those in power.
heres another one I saw about this

All I want to say right now is, I'm surprised that this video is still up.

This is probably the most right-wing video he's ever made. I say this because a concept like "objective beauty" would make the people in charge of WEF seethe.

How? I remember a video about climate change where they literally say that rich and powerful people are responsible while also producing the most CO2 and that we as individuals shouldn't turn into doomer crybabies but turn our concerns against those in power.

Why would they take it down? I don't understand. And how is objective beauty particularly right wing? That humans prefer beauty is a fact of nature as asserted in the video, not a political belief.

This is only a problem if you're a pliable numbnuts and form your opinions from youtube videos. I'll keep watching that channel cause the art is fun to look at.

Why am I not surprised that this propagandist channel had propaganda. It was just too neat and manicured. Problem is that they at least take the courtesy to tell you when you are getting boned and by who. Problem is we don't know who is doing this on other channels?

How can I trust?

 

[Regal]

Everyone should be assumed to have an agenda. This isn't as big a dunk on Kurzgesagt as you think.

The WEF has been pushing a vision of a supposedly socially-oriented capitalism which e.g. pays carbon taxes and is concerned with the long-term maintenance of the envrionment and the human population of the planet (which ties in to their overlap with eugenicism and vision of corporations replacing most/all the functions of traditional governments). It's not the rich who are "responsible," but corporations, which is why corporations should be run "for the public good." This is the line of thought being pushed by the WEF. It is not interested one bit in covering up or denying climate change; climate change is all the more reason, as it sees, for the kind of future it wants.

Tl;DR Kurzgesagt's message is entirely consistent with being a WEF puppet.

how is objective beauty particularly right wing?

The left constantly talks about how beauty standards are "toxic". They're the whole reason why we have fat women with armpit hair plastered all over billboards advertising lingerie.

If you want to go even deeper, you could say that the entire modern leftist philosophy is based on the idea that everything is a "construct" of some kind, and that we should constantly "redefine" the meaning of things. What beauty is, what it means to be a man/woman, what sex/gender is, everything pretty much. Objectivity of any kind is inherently incompatible with modern leftism.

This is why I don't think it's usually helpful to talk about "left" and "right." These terms go back to the French Revolution, where the "left" was the revolutionaries. We live in the aftermath of the Cold War, when the revolutionaries, communists, were stamped out. Afterward the limits of political speech and possibility were sharply withdrawn to the right. There is nothing revolutionary about culture war bullshit like fat acceptance or gender ideology; in fact those two movements are encouraged because they make capitalists, the ruling class, a lot of money. Even "postmodernism" and a lot of the recent movements in the artistic/cultural/academic worlds have been heavily funded and directed by the CIA or other dark money. The Iowa Writer's Workshop, one of the biggest opportunities for aspiring writers in the States, is a CIA org, for instance. Gloria Steinem received CIA money. The counterculture of Laurel Canyon was extremely spooked up. When you understand the actual CIA as "the left" or movements pushed by pharmaceutical companies as "leftist philosophy" your limits of thought are extremely limited, to say the least, especially when "the right" is even more retarded, and just as phosporescent (e.g. Tucker Carlson, who's, you guessed it, also CIA).

not the rich who are "responsible"

They are. The top 10% in Germany produce as much CO2 as the lower 50. So telling the lower 50 to change their lifestyle while the rich can keep their yachts, mulitple cars, huge houses etc. is hypocritical. They also happen to own and have power over most industries that pollute the plant the most.

corporations should be run "for the public good."

They should at least not forsake it for short term gains...

This is the line of thought being pushed by the WEF. It is not interested one bit in covering up or denying climate change; climate change is all the more reason, as it sees, for the kind of future it wants.

Then I don't have a problem with that.

Oh, yeah IDK I don't really consider extreme wokeism and SJW babble to be genuinely left wing. That's more of some kind of mentall illness we imported from the Americans. At least outside of academia and America this shit doesn't have many supporters among the left, probably because they know it would cost them their credibility.

Of course the conflict of interest is blatantly obvious. Profit-maximizing entities (and that is their ONLY modus operandi) now all the sudden pivoting to environmental and humanitarian issues as top priority? These people don't give a rat's ass about any of these causes and I'd even go so far as to say "green" energy can in some cases be harmful to the environment. For instance, and luckily I think the scheme got shelved, some local politicians were boasting about how they were going to rezone some of the last remaining tracts of open/undeveloped land to construct a huge solar farm. Decentralized solar panels on roofs make total sense, but to me the green energy racket is just that - a new way for crony public-private contracts to be signed and money to corruptly change hands while our dollar slowly loses all it's value and everyone just kind of expects the worst out of our "elected" officials, regardless of their party affiliation. As someone who has, in his lifetime seen the positive results of less pollution/cleaner water/etc, I'm all for sane clean energy policy but that has to include nuclear if we're being serious. (At least for a population like the northeast US)

Regarding Kurzgesagt, I do personally enjoy most of the videos even now just because I like the animation, especially after a little herb. FWIW, I recall they put it pretty up front that at least one of their videos was funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. I just watch it fully aware that it has the explicit blessing of the new priestly "Science" class, and in that context pointing out the propaganda is just part of the viewing experience lol.
