  1. But your essay will last forever while the Chinese hospital will fall apart within 10 years (or months).

  2. In other words, your job and future will be eliminated on purpose. You can thank our enlightened "leaders" for this.

  3. Yes, it's true for all "celebrity" and more generally entertainment, sports or art-related business. High risk, high potential payoff, but extremely low average/typical payoff.

  4.  @paulelderson934  Except that nobody has transitioned away from oil ... nor is going to achieve such a transition any time soon. Unless you calculate in global poverty and world hunger as the "inevitable collateral cost". Then maybe it is "worth it" for the few rich bimbos that are currently driving this craziness.

  5. Generally speaking, if there is ways to make more money and obtain more power by having a crisis than by not having a crisis, the crisis will be produced by those who can obtain the money/power. Never forget that the crisis for you is a golden opportunity for someone else up there, especially true if most people can be convinced to believe in an objective/external cause for the crisis.

  6. Technically, the US bullies the most countries.

  7.  Gary Baldi  Yes, but this time it's different - it is not technological progress which is driving the elimination of jobs, it is ideology, greed, and corruption. Dreams of restoring tech-supported feudalism, essentially.

  8. To be honest, as much as I dislike Chinese propaganda, this one sounds like a bs story blown out of proportions by the Western propaganda.

  9. Yes, putting you to prison without court would also be controversial, but highly effective.

  10. @SuperAtheist Then compare the W in Wuhan to M in Medical and M in Treatment.

  11.  @Iquey  Of course, there will always be a FEW rich people able to afford travel. No need to maintain the current airline industry to service those few.

  12. The so called "Trusted Computing" chip is one big backdoor integrated into most mainboards... Microsoft is not really hiding the fact that their goal is to be able to remotely control/shut off every machine in the world, and most companies are switching to their "cloud platform" to make it even easier to accomplish.
    4
  13. In short, because of the utter idiocy of our so-called "leaders" everyone loses.

  14. It's going to work just as well as selling art and busking works in a depression.

  15.  @Eibarwoman  Half of the people there are spending their social benefits on drugs. What makes you think they could not save up some money to move out if they really wanted to?
    4
  16.  @Eibarwoman Yes, and it is certainly not someone else's problem that an opioid addict fucked up their life. The only way to teach responsibility is to actually let people suffer consequences of their wrong decisions. If you think otherwise, in case of a particular opioid addict, you are welcome to support their (financial) well-being personally, which is called charity. In any case, not a problem that should be "solved" by raining down more money on these people on system level.

  17. Actually, in terms of layman explanation it would have been better to skip the encoding/decoding altogether and just point out that just like your ear can pick out different instruments simultaneously in a piece of music, the cell tower can pick out different signals transmitted at the same time... the only trick is that different "instruments" are in use - which is what the spreading codes correspond to.

  18. @Hernando Malinche It's not a myth, you gotta watch some documentaries on the topic of Chinese building codes and construction quality.

  19. lol seems like clown bukele still getting free advertising from CIA-sponsored media? In this video you can experience for yourself how American stooges report on an American-backed dictator.

  20.  @matthew8153 Yep, this is essentially a propaganda channel wrapped in "YouTube creator" dress to appeal to the grassroots.

  21. Well it happens to all failing countries that they get indebted to and are pwned by abroad entities.

  22. @Quick Comment You're probably right, this being a huge show-off political project, they likely have not hired the shoddy guys who build skyscrapers for "investors".

  23. Haven't watched till the end, but let me guess how this video will end "evil foreign corporations and climate change are to blame" (certainly not blind ideology and redistribution-based economics). Now I continue watching to test how right I understand Mr. Wendover's propaganda...

  24.  @mbvbm3104  Nope, the average person today has amenities of which a medieval king could only have dreamed of. The difference in the standard of living between ultrarich and average is very small. The ultrarich just spend orders of magnitude more for goods and services of pretty much the same quality as everyone else.
    2
  25.  @johnlacey3857  No, I'd suggest not building military bases in countries bordering Russia and promising Ukraine NATO membership - as was agreed in the Minsk agreements. Also, no missile bases that can launch a strike at Moscow from such countries. But I know, that's too much to ask of our peaceful leaders.
    2
  26. Yes, but the actual irony is only found when those middle class persons happily join in to criticize themselves for using their heater in August. If you are dumb enough to self-harm, then maybe you "deserve" being harmed and ridiculed by those arguably smarter (and certainly richer) than you.
    2
  27.  @ryanweible9090 The real reason they don't move is the social benefits they receive in their rotten nests. Half of the population on drugs, too, bought from the same social benefits.
    2
  28. The only reason why China is doing what it's doing is not "an escalating climate crisis" or some other such bs, it is the trade war with the USA. It's a sort of a war of attrition in which the respective populations don't matter. And it also helps to be able to terrorize the rest of the world by spiking commodity prices. End of story.

  33. GIven that his channel is sponsored by NWO, it is no big surprise they have a budget. His other "content" is telling the world how great US military-industrial power is and promoting WEF ideas. With strong ties to airline/military industry no less.

  34.  @LostPilgrim  Not true, specialists/experts in a field can easily outdo networking morons, without much need for connections.

  35.  @LostPilgrim  It might be true that top-earning people are generalists, but most "generalists" are low-earning people. It's like with celebrities - although most celebrities are idiots, most idiots are not celebrities. The actual value is not created, just sold through networking. And there is a huge number of wannabe rich people who think they can cheat their way to the top by networking, only creating a lot of competition and disappointment for themselves.

  37. Let's not forget the nice European taxes, around 40% of income (income tax plus mandatory health/pension insurance).

  38.  Gary Baldi  The people "want not to have climate change" and "want to have Zoom" in the same way people in Stalin's Russia "wanted to have" communism. They are forced into a certain lifestyle by decree of the "benevolent" dictators, in case you have not noticed over the past two years. Add to this domination of said forces over the media and education - again, continuous communist-style brainwashing, to convince people what they "want", regardless of the costs or collateral damage.

  39.  @mariano7699  I think we're getting there - but the people in charge definitely do think it's already happened and is threatening their future grab on power.

  40.  @deep_blue7353  you're not up-to-date, it's no longer called "global warming" but "climate change".. the reason being that the actual data no longer supports the "warming" part
    1
  41.  @carloscjr23  Yeah, what's the point of being ultrarich if you cannot even enjoy your holidays in peace with all the tourist vermin squirming around you. The correct setup is that the lords travel while the peasants stay in their "global village" and labor (mostly unheated, online, under careful supervision and proactive censorship and automated AI-based detection of revolt attempts). And when the serfs multiply too much and stop believing your "thank you sooo much for solidarity in saving the climate!" fairy tale, why not throw some new lab-invented disease at them. But foremost, their presence must not spoil your future holidays in exotic locations. They can "enjoy" their own life in the grand online Metaverse, which they be forced to build for themselves of course. Keep the real world to the upper classes, really.

  44.  @Anthony-tu7oz  The only reason the world is "burning" right now is the mad policies it adopted. And the reason for these policies is that when you're the ultrarich asshole making them, you don't feel very rich unless you see that everyone else around you is a begging/slaving away/suffering. Neofeudalism - the only way to enjoy high life just with your rich friends, like the old kings and noblemen used to. And look how many morons support it and literally help dig their own grave.

  45. TL;DW exruciatingly stupid and anti-human politics reinforced by wacky "eco" ideology have caused an artificial collapse of demand which made it unprofitable to invest in future supply.

  48. Given that there is no proof that we can change anything about climate by reducing CO2 emissions, it is all pure bullshit.

  49. The most frightening thing that this was the plan for the entire world during the pandemic, with fuckers like the owner of this channel cheering it up.

  50. The only transition you will get is a transition to living like a caveman while the rich are enjoying their incoming-apocalypse parties. After that, probably WW3, plague and hunger to eliminate the "unnecessary" parts of population. After that we (mostly the richer survivors) can return back to our senses and using fossil fuels - all while introducing new fascist measures to keep the population under control or declining long-term.

  51. It is normal that companies are taking risks, IT or not. It is usually some junior/novice IT guy (and yes, you can remain junior for 40+ years) who pretends to know and teach the senior exec how they should run their shop and what risks they should take. Guess what, that is not your role otherwise you would be that exec. So instead of bitching around you should focus on making the systems work as well as they possibly can under economic constraints that are imposed on you. That's also known as engineering (as opposed to art where you throw together some shit wasting lots of effort and then wonder why the cruel world does not want to purchase your "masterpiece" from you).

  56.  @JesseAYLY  They probably already destroyed the hospital. It was all for show.
    1
  57.  @zxskipperxz372  Probably because everyone already had their corona there. Also Chinese suppressing news and faking reports as usual.
    1
  58.  @zxskipperxz372  I've never said US dealt well with it. Anyhow, coronavirus in US is mostly a political thing, it's being overreported to oust Trump. Whereas in China it's being underreported to make CCP look like champions.
    1
  59.  @zxskipperxz372  BTW, mask policies do not work. Masks were only introduced to "restart the economy". They are not mandated in Northern European countries, for example , which do not have a raging pandemic problem. They were not mandated during the initial phase of the pandemic either (and it subsided with the great majority of people ignoring them in most countries). Evidence for masks' effectiveness against viruses is thin and was mostly fabricated after the policies were put in place to reinforce them (whereas earlier, non-biased studies concluded that they don't work, to the point of questioning their use in healthcare altogether). Any deaths attributed to corona are inherently "political" in the sense that many of them are deaths that would have happened anyways and almost none of them are deaths with cause confirmed by autopsy. Since the virus is so widespread, they are falsely being attributed to it - more so in countries where it is a political thing and not being actively suppressed from the public view as in China. Another reason why Asian countries may have fewer cases overall is that people around there are probably more immune to begin with because of effects of the first SARS epidemic 17 years ago (yes, T cell immunity lasts that long). That may also be the reason why it did not look like a big deal and was swept under the carpet by the CCP in the very beginning (apart from the usual "don't make ourselves look bad" reasons).

  60.  @zxskipperxz372  Masks are more than useless, they cause daily stress, conflict and make some people avoid going out altogether (that's actually the most effective way of how the contribute to preventing the spread of the disease). The idea that "masks" will save anyone is ridiculous because even the term "mask" is completely undefined - I could put a piece of paper under my nose and call it a "mask". Others wear plastic shields that don't do jack shit in terms of filtering, and also call them "masks". Studies show that some commonly used materials filter 30-50% of NaCl particles. But other studies show that there is virtually no minimum dose of viral particles that cause an infection. It's ill-conceived and outright silly from the very get go. It's a political stunt, nothing more. Of course other people think that because they wear a "mask" they can skip on other measures. Perhaps that's why Argentina, the most masked and heavily corona-policed country, is having an explosion of infections. An "impeccable healthcare" of Scandinavia is irrelevant when it comes to spread of infections. It's just a matter of how people behave. Without masks. As for your "medical experts" of course China only invites those which will see what they want and report as they are told. You must be new to China. Meanwhile, you cannot publish anything anti-mask because of an overreaching censorship in the oh-so-scientific journals and anxiety not to damage one's career (not believing me? see how Rancourt's publication was handled, for example). And of course, the old "positive result bias" makes it far more likely that any slightest "yes it works" result gets published and any "inconclusive" or "no effect" result gets thrown away. One could say that Chinese methods are now being applied worldwide when it comes to coronavirus-related information. Which is no big surprise since billions of dollars are at stake in this farce. You may be surprised, but I don't live in the US either. Maybe you should take your head out of your ass and stop ASSuming so much.

  61.  @zxskipperxz372  Yes, surgical masks are useless against viruses. There are publications about that. If a surgeon suspects a viral infection in themselves, they do not operate. And all things considering, US is doing pretty well (many infections, few deaths), by accident more than by design. They will be immune before the rest of the world, and they have already reserved most of the vaccines (although my prediction is that most of them will go into garbage soon past their expiration date, just like they did for H1N1 - the money grab is already successful without any actual vaccinations taking place; and the "problem" will solve itself in max. 2 years just like any past pandemic has).

  64. Yeah, tax the rich, so we can spend more on rockets and bombs (the military being the biggest budget item in the US). Maybe also masks and vaccines of which billions will be disposed of as garbage. Because, you know, the gubbment doesn't have enough money already and can spend it better than those evil rich people who like to travel.

  65.  @StopTh3Idiots  Basically, his only attempt at explanation was the "difficult past".. so even after apartheid has ended apparently apartheid is still to blame. Because you know... In the PC Wendover Productions can't openly blame certain people - at best you can point to some corrupt "party", but even then not who is in that party. Basically everything has been done as it should (progressive) and it is some strange unfortunate accident that it did not work out.. and as usual the rich people (who are leaving the country) are to blame.

  68. I was sarcastic. Of course these rich jerks do know what they're doing and feel fully entitled. Any person whose salary equals to hundreds of other (extremely highly qualified) people and who is wasting others' money on such a grand scale is not right in the head and should be ashamed of themselves. But of course they aren't.

  69. Seems like these days it's turning more into a green communist version of it: "you deserve nothing and therefore will get nothing, you are no longer supposed to consume, but you can be a citizen, parent, child or friend all you like - as long as it costs nothing. Otherwise, why don't you just die and make room for other people".

  77. Well, just a part of great pandemic plan to turn everyone into peasants. If there are no budget airlines, obviously you cannot afford budget airline tickets. So you sit on your ass at home and watch Mr. Wendover explain to you how it's all because of climate change or what not.

  78. Yes, all very impressive and yet the same bonzos got their sorry asses kicked by a few bearded guys in Afghanistan.
    1
  79.  @CaptinPelley  Any why did the US leave, and why did they have to rely on Afghan army to do their shit job? Because despite being the mightiest and most resourceful military in the world they did not manage to solve the problem of the "inferior" Talibans. Which tells you something about how mighty they really are, when push comes to shove (much the same story as the mighty Russian army).

  82. The only worse thing than one Bezos spending 600 times more than a regular human being is a regular human being violently turning against another regular human being to control and prevent their spending. Which happens to be a common development in all forms of redistribution/communism.

  83. Yes, if you enjoy covidian/WEF military-industrial technopropaganda. On this channel it feels like the pandemic is still with us.
    1
  84. The only reason for the "climate change" agenda is to make world population easier to police/enslave for the benefit of those few doing the policing/enslaving. As any sort of guilt mongering (e.g. see traditional religions), it is entirely political and focused on reinforcing power of the priest caste - and entirely useless for any other purpose.

  85. I can feel myself chuckling at the hubris and idiocy of the ultrarich, while still being fully aware of their capability to incite morons like yourself against my own humble person. Because in reality I can qualitatively afford almost everything these supposedly ultrarich people can (e.g. climbing into a bathtub gives the same impressions as climbing into warm ocean at some exotic place). But what I can't afford is to defend myself from someone like you wishing to steal my property.

  86. China is pursuing CO2 reduction goals for the same reason why Western countries - to strengthen the grip of elites on power and establish a new form of feudal society, in which access to (finite) natural resources is controlled by a small ruling group at the expense of majority of people. It has nothing to do with saving climate bs, and everything to do with wealth redistribution and preventing future revolutions.

  89. Yes, dams can collapse, gas pipelines can blow up, major forest areas can mysteriously catch fire, strange new viruses can spread, and energy grids can fail, especially when you are sponsoring wars in foreign countries.

  90. But we can see when the old dams get blown up, we are already prepared to blame it on climate change, dams being a bad idea overall, and so on, as you can learn from this yet another enlightening video by Wendover Productions. It would be funny if it wasn't so transparent.
