It seems that everything turned into scams, aggressive self marketing and just click bait irrelevant content. I liked finance videos, but every creator sounds like “the world will end soon” or “my secret method to make 1 million per week day trading stocks/forex/crypto.”
Content aimed at culture (movies/series) also behave the same way, throwing a bit of politics into the mix. Always the same incendiary click bait title spewing a bunch of nonsense that has nothing the story, setting characters or other topics relevant to the piece.
Is there anything that can be saved on that platform? It has gotten so bad that I’m start to think that Tiktok and Twitter both have better content than YouTube. At least in those platforms you can find a random dude writing an essay in a series of 20 tweets on why an increase of mantis is related to the global surge of ballpoint pen prices.
kurzgesagt is also political. The video about vegan food threw me off.
I cannot trust someone on certain issues if this person is biased against some of these issues. That is the world today. It’s ok, downvote me, I’m not against veganism btw, I don’t care what people eat, but I truly do not believe in certain number presented even though I do believe that animals are treated very harshly in this capitalistic world because of profits.
Their greenwashed climate change videos really exposed them as a corporate propaganda outlet. I can’t watch them anymore.
I agree with you. Their philosophical content and pretty animations was what drew me into them in the first place, but the moment they started spewing unscientific anti-vegan propaganda and how no one should go vegan because meat tastes great, I unsubscribed.
Dont know why you are getting downvoted, I love kurzgesagt and I think that some statements and ideas are not just pure science and facts. They often give their opinion on the matter.
And it’s fine, they have the right to express their opinion, whether I agree with it or not
