  • Fine, but with that definition most middle eastern countries and many in Africa would be considered apartheid states as well. Even Russia is bordering on Apartheid with the way it treats Chenchens, Rurals and deep eastern settlements. China is apartheid on Uygurs. Turkiye on Kurds and Armenia. My point is that there seems to be a huge double standard criticizing Israel for Apartheid while not criticizing many other countries for it. I'm fine with blaming Israel for it as long as other countries get blamed for it. I don't see anyone in the Middle East raging at China for the way they crack down on Muslims in a much worse way than Israel has done

    We expect more from Israel because it's a western country but at the end of the day they are just another country in the middle east. They have their own version of religious fanaticism same as other Arabs with their own. I'm tired of all the news from Israel while literally half the world's population is struggling to survive. It feels like a giant class and race war to distract us

  • I'm not sure what you are trying to say. Regular people don't care if you are Jewish or not.

    Israel is a parliamentary democracy with a multiparty system and independent institutions that guarantee political rights and civil liberties for most of the population. Although the judiciary is comparatively active in protecting minority rights, the political leadership and many in society have discriminated against Arab and other ethnic or religious minority populations, resulting in systemic disparities in areas including infrastructure, criminal justice, education, and economic opportunity.

    This is no different than Black people in the US. No one calls USA an apartheid state?

    Also you conveniently ignored my point about the rest of the middle east

  • Every vote that Biden loses to a third party means Trump has a better chance of winning the state. Unless you are voting in a pure Blue state like NY,CA, etc or a pure Red state like FL, OH, etc then you are giving Trumptard a better chance to win by not voting for Biden

  • I'm not at odds with people who don't respect her. I'm at odds of people bringing up the same two videos over and over again. Should she have made those videos? No. We both agree with that. Does she owe an apology video for that? No, I don't believe she does. YouTube is not a scientific journal, it's a media outlet. Her main contribution to the channel is educating us on science and explaining things in ways we can understand. I accept that she will make mistakes sometimes because she is trying to put out way too much content than she has knowledge for. Unfortunately that's how YouTube works, you either put out content or you lose algorithm power.

    What I don't have respect for is scientists who try to put people down just because they made a few mistakes and don't go groveling and make a sorry video about it. It's an insufferable and arrogant, snobbish attitude. Absolutely unnecessary. Point out the mistake and move on. I'm not a scientist and I greatly benefit from watching her videos because it helps me understand. Then I read comments like yours that make her sound like a hack. It makes me severely upset that we pick on a few bad videos instead of acknowledging the hundreds of useful videos. Absolutely ridiculous. I have no respect for rabid people like that and that's what made me write that comment. And then at the end you take a shot at me for deciding to speak out about it. Fitting snobbish behavior. Have a good life

  • Get over it. Those videos happened and every single fucking time there's a new video some blowhard brings those up. This video has absolutely nothing to do with those videos. This is about climate change. It's a very informative video. What are your criticisms of this video?
