I’m not sure why, but I’m getting less and less interested in Kurzgesagt videos. I think it’s most a perception and not reality, but for me looks like they are making the same videos all the time, and the tone also… I used to crave for new videos on their channel, but not so much these days, which is a shame :(
For me it’s because there’s more “fun” thought-experiment-type stuff (to be polite about it). Which to be clear is a step below potential-future or something theoretical like the Fermi-paradox or other unknowns. Though the titles and thumbnails don’t help, if you click on one of the what-if videos (like
How to Win an Interstellar War
with the thumbnail sayingWorld War Alien
) you may see other similar topics (like more serious talks on the Fermi paradox) and be inclined to think they are the same type of what-if takes.I expect explanations of viruses, stars, ants, civilization etc. not “You’re in a coma, please wake up. Sam please, WAKE UP!”
That but also whitewashing billionaires.
