I usually watch educational content with a little bit of 3blue1brown and Kurzgesagt to name a few.
Same here and it's literally all I watch lol gave up cable almost 10 years ago!
For anyone who knows: hello wonderful person!
:P
kurzgesagt is also political. The video about vegan food threw me off.
I cannot trust someone on certain issues if this person is biased against some of these issues. That is the world today. It's ok, downvote me, I'm not against veganism btw, I don't care what people eat, but I truly do not believe in certain number presented even though I do believe that animals are treated very harshly in this capitalistic world because of profits.
Dont know why you are getting downvoted, I love kurzgesagt and I think that some statements and ideas are not just pure science and facts. They often give their opinion on the matter.
And it's fine, they have the right to express their opinion, whether I agree with it or not

I agree with you. Their philosophical content and pretty animations was what drew me into them in the first place, but the moment they started spewing unscientific anti-vegan propaganda and how no one should go vegan because meat tastes great, I unsubscribed.
Their greenwashed climate change videos really exposed them as a corporate propaganda outlet. I can't watch them anymore.
