    Man, I loved that video when it came out but reading the comments and watching the video essays replying to this video is just depressing. I still have hope that we will be able to turn it around, but that video used to be what I sent everyone who was down due to climate issues, and now I can’t send it to people in good conscience.

      You mean the channel that uses Gigachad unironically, uses scant sources, and only highly viewed videos are contrarian hit pieces on Kurzgesagt?

      You should probably take it with a grain of salt when the only people you see pushing such a channel are a bunch of sketchy pessimists pushing apathy. It was made because they knew they’d have easy views giving every one of those glass hall empty types another reason to mope because they want everyone else to be just as miserable as them.

      Lemmy isn’t exactly known for being a website who sees the world through the lens of reality though lol.

      The hot takes here and amount of fingers you see shoved in ears despite every source saying otherwise is staggering at times.

      I mean Jesus, look at the comic everyone is commenting on. Look for any piece of light hearted fun on this site and watch it devolve instantly by a bunch of propagandists and people who take themselves too serious pretending like they aren’t on mainstream social media or a link aggregating site that’s essentially copying reddit but refused to acknowledge where they came from. It’s just so silly sometimes when you poke fun at it lol.
