Kurzgesagt always frames political issues in market terms like cost and investment. Their channel only really exists to to make neoliberals feel better about the dystopia they’ve created.
Real :doomjak: hours
Another world remains possible, the specter of communism still looms large over the world.
I only saw the first 20 minutes or so of this empanada video, but it feels like Kurzgesagt is saying that only the people in developing countries will get fucked, so. you guys don’t have to worry. Showed a dead african elephant to highlight “some ecosystems” collapsing, and specifically used the word “developing countries” to explain what would happen when the temperature increases.
So it makes sense that they talked about the monetary/economic imapct and not the lost lives.
My original response to Kurzgesagt’s comment (which is still somewhere down below) was auto-deleted by youtube. I’m reposting the original exchange here. YouTube keeps auto-deleting EVEN MY OWN COMMENTS on my channel.

Kurzed gatz was crying in the comments “actually I’m a small business owner and I listed sources.”
