So it's confirmed that Nebula wanted them to both-sides Palestine and "israel". Disgusting.
Nebula is a streaming platform that heavily advertises itself as creator-owned and free from corporate control. Unlike Means TV, it is not a cooperative, and is "half" owned by the guy from CPG Grey, the guy from Kurzgesagt, and some guy named Dave Wiskus. The other half is "owned" by the people making videos for the site, but the nature of this ownership is so opaque that as far as I can tell it just means they get half of the profits, a cut that is worse than what you can get on pretty much any competing platform.
fuck Nebula cancelled that shit the second they booted Second Thought. isn't their biggest funder a raving zionist?
Means TV is one of those recurring payments I’d forgotten about 😬 I dropped Nebula recently, which I only ever used to access Curiosity Stream.
Yeah I got in early on and forget to use it. There's some great content there though when I do check.
Were they both sidesing before? I’m not too familiar with Second Thought, just seen them here and there with YouTube videos
Yeah Nebula is a “creator owned” streaming service mostly full of edutainment YouTube channels. As another commenter said how “creator owned” it actually is is up for debate, it’s mostly owned by CGPGrey, Kurtzgesagt, and a couple other guys
Kurtzgesagt is neoliberal propaganda outlet so that’s not good. How Kurzgesagt Cooks Propaganda For Billionaires
Yep. Idk if they were always that way, I remember liking their early videos a lot. But it was mostly stuff that political ideas have literally no impact on, like “Let’s compare the size of an atom to a cell to a person to a planet to a galaxy”
I imagine they changed after getting funding from oligarchs’ endowments and effective altruism creeps.
Yeah Kurzgesagt does have some fun vids about space /animals etc. Everything about society/climate change reeks of neoliberal bullshit though.
Why? /gen.
I don't know much about them but I used to love the video they made about optimistic nihilism. The only bad video I know is their milk video.
