  1. The basic answer to every Kurgezast video: "Well, it's complicated"

  2. "So I'm Jeff Bezos?" "And the thousands he made pee in bottles and occasionally crap in plastic bags because the world's richest man demands an unreasonable work pace in his workhouses so he can go play in space on a cock-rocket" "Wowwwwoww" wondrous amazement noises

  3. Online fact-based edu-tubers are honestly one of the best things to come from the development of social media. Thanks for all you do, Kurg Team! We really appreciate it and you're doing a fabulous job of informing the world!

  5. Yeah lol. It's like do you want the 3rd grade level explanation, the 9th grade explanation, the college 101 explanation, or the hyper-byzantine graduate level explanation?

  6.  @jablanguado7738    listen me, I just don't have the time to go into all this this morning But bec I'm a marxist-leaning socialist libertarian and it does matter to me how this shit works, I will try to explain. Do keep in mind however I was mostly going for a light-hearted joke. But you are right, they can move on and some will. However, while cock-rockets are fun and cool and all, there's no moral reason work conditions in his plants have to be exploitative. Also, nobody deserves that kind of money- not even close- idc what argument somebody makes. That level of capitalism is against my beliefs and that's that. But we don't have to get serious right now. The video was interesting and the jokes in this comment section have been hilarious. I was just trying to make my minor contribution to them. But since you're me, I understand where we are coming from. Perhaps now we can better understand ourselves. See you around, Me.

  9. I hear thorium reactors are poised to be a revolution in the nuclear industry. They appear much safer and more efficient than traditional methods. I've read and watched a bit about them so far and they seem like the no-brainer next step in the nuclear power field. Apparently the only major thing holding them back at this point is a lack of perceived commercial viability. Hopefully that will change soon.

  10. This was a great overview altho I'm pretty negative about Gates for several key reasons and I'm very doubtful the billionaires can or will be able to save us. I doubt their sincerity, I doubt their motivations, I doubt the viability of their so-called solutions. I'm willing to entertain all rational suggestions at this point due to the gravity of the issue, but I'll be highly surprised if Gates has anything to truly offer towards real solutions beyond his fascination with technology. In an alternative universe where blood-drinking thugs and savages don't run my country, a GND or something similar would already be aggressively implemented as an excellent jumping off point for tackling climate change and food sustainability.

  11.  @Sirusf  I agree that everyone should strive to eat a plant-based diet and minimize their consumption of red meat/beef products, not so much for health reasons but for environmental reasons. And of course there is the animal justice issue of consuming products from CAFOs. Edit: just to clarify, I believe red meat to actually be very healthy, as long as it's raised in a natural, grass-fed manner, so that's the reason I say "not so much for health reasons". But ofc artificial hormones are used in corporate beef raising, plus they are fed grain in place of grass, a non-natural food source; and I doubt either are great for our bodies. So while it's not practical for everyone to switch over to 100% plants-only diet, I definitely support encouraging everyone to limit consuming beef and meat products from industrial farming sources, if at all possible.

  17.  @-SP.   federal subsidies to large industries in general should be stopped. Let's call it what they are, SCAMS. Corporate welfare. Throwing hardworking ordinary taxpayers' money at rich industries who certainly don't need them or deserve them. No "handouts" for the vast social needs that we have. No funding for a green new deal and aggressive climate and food solutions. No- just handouts to the entities who need them least. But that's bec these politicians are literally paid long before to do just that. The bribes and graft come in from all over corporate America, bec Big Ag (big anything) knows that money will be paid back to them handsomely many times over in literal handouts and favorable policy and even in more serious cases of persecution via federal agents against individuals/smaller operators they want to shit on. It's gross but common. That's what buying yourself congresspeople will do. Until this system of limitless graft-handouts-repeat is made illegal, or better people get elected (*snicker* right) both parties will readily serve Big Ag, Big Pharma, Big Everything no matter how unsustainable or destructive they are. It's sad that all Big Anything and 99% of Congress ever cares about is the money, and they could care less about the long-term or even short-term effects of what they do. These kinds of criminal irresponsibility and negligence have caused all the environmental destruction we currently face, and have set the stage for climate change on the world stage. I don't know what it's going to take to turn things around bec most politicians aren't doing shit. They are there to take bribes to give whoever's paying them what they want- period, which only fattens the pockets of those at the top and doesn't help anyone else.

  20. I find the BAMGF absolutely suspect and more of a PR scam than a genuine charity that accomplishes good things, just scratch the surface and you'll see they aren't there to help anyone, but you make a good point with this video Kurgs. Nothing wrong with acknowledging that there can be a self-serving aspect in wanting to end poverty once and for all on this planet.

  22.  @divitrana8439  I appreciate everyone's points but no, not necessarily as far as that I'd say, as we had big brains that could help us make those things for us so that we didn't need natural claws or sharp teeth. I think we were always meant to be omnivores, but of course some people today will eat according to their personal wishes and in some cases that includes being vegetarian.

  28.  @sujaykrishnanath82  yeah but why worship cows? They are sweet animals who shouldn't be mistreated in any way, but not worshipped. They are just animals- and I love all animals, but I'd never worship one especially of it was a draft animal and produced such useful food. Just think how many hungry people can be fed from the meat of one cow. It's not very smart to worship a bunch of non-thinking beasts when they could be put to good use as food, and there are so many poor and hungry people who could desperately use that food. However, I am glad to hear you at least harvest the milk.

  35.  @jablanguado7738  I'm not saying I don't believe in the private sector- sorry if I was unclear. I'm part Socialist, part dem-soc. So, yes we should have a private sector altho workers should have a say in their workplace if they want it. Rank and file unions should rise and take the place of most current unions which are headed by company plants to sabotage it from within and undermine the actual workers. These would have equal say to the owners and (ideally) would work in partnership. Wages and working conditions for all workers should be strong and solid across the board regardless of position or industry. I also believe in govt guarantees of all the essentials of life for all citizens who need them or want them; ie they cant or don't want to obtain them on the private market. I'm for the normal private market but with better rules, regs and oversight than we have now; and a greatly-expanded public one. So I'm somewhere between a DemSoc and a "regular" Socialist. Maybe one day I'll move further and lend my support to Marxism, I don't know. So far I find a lot of food for thought in those circles. As to anything else you mentioned I'll have to come back later.

  36.  @jablanguado7738  lol. I'm grown pal- and who's whining?? Making things better for someone isn't whining- isn't that what life's about?? If you see something that you don't think is right, you try to fix it. That's how you get a better world. I'm sure you can understand that.

  41. Raw milk and colustrum are the only ways to go. Commercially produced milk is probably not that great for you, at best probably does nothing. This is because all the natural healthy compounds are destroyed during the pasteurization process. If you can find raw, unpasteurized milk and/or colustrum where you live, I would highly recommend it.
