    34:03 this clip right here is eerily similar to what happened in 1920 to the Radium Girls in the US. How the American Radium company told girls as young as 11 working in their factories that the radium in ‘Undark Paint’ that made it glow wasn’t toxic but was actually completely harmless and was actually *good* for you. And told the girls put the brushes in their mouths to sharpen the point in order to better paint the small numbers on the dials of watches. They encouraged them to paint their nails, teeth and cheeks with the paint as a ‘job perk’ because wealthy women would pay a lot of radium lotions and toothpaste to make their teeth and skin glow.
    Predictably all of these poor girls and young women died horrible, painful deaths from radiation poisoning and cancer apart from one who lived to 107 because she was fired a week into the job because she refused to put the paint brush in her mouth. The American Radium company kept delaying their court hearing hoping the girls would die before the court date came up. Which is so sad because all the families of these women and girls wanted was for the company to pay for their medical and funeral bills.
    In the end after 8 appeals the company lost and paid out thousands of dollars in damages to the girls affected for the rest of their short lives. The men at the factory who were their bosses would wear lead lined aprons, handle the paint with gloves on and used tongs. They would have janitors throw radioactive waste out back instead of disposing of it properly and those janitors got sick with cancer as well.
    These men all knew fine well that radium is extremely dangerous and will kill you if exposed to it. They even tried to get rid of the glowing bones of the girls who had died and bribe those who performed autopsies on them.
    They kept saying in court that the paint was completely harmless and the girls were dying from siphyllis by being ‘promiscuous’ to try and defame them.
    It’s abhorrent how shit like this still happens to this very day. I wish one of the men in charge of killing those girls had been challenged to drink the undark paint by a journalist and made to flounder and trip on their own dicks and make a complete arse of themselves. Lying cunts.

      Do you stop smoking cigarettes only after you feel the cancer lump ? Do you know you see and feel no negative effects while smoking, and you'll feel the effects in 30-60 years? You gotta be smarter than that. Understand how one thing leads to another, because with the mindset of "it's not affecting me yet", when it affects you, you might be too damn late to do anything about it. And our biggest problems that we have as a global civilization right not are of this delayed type. Slowly accumulating consequences , that become something big you can't stop if you wait till you feel it . When you start feeling it, you are already too late.
      Feeling things out works fine if you are an animal in the wild. When things happen fast on a small scale and are short term. But we are a bit smarter and we can figure shit out way in advance by investigating scientifically which part of reality affects which other part and how.

It's actually "Socialism is for figs", referencing the fact that Che Guevara was captured in La Higuera, which is Spanish for "the fig tree".

      Second the response of the person in the video wasn't stupid the reaction of the interviewer suggesting that he should drink a glass of it was...
      Glyphosate can be toxic in high amounts (like many other things fe. Natriumchloride) the LD50 amount (deadly amount) of glyphosate is around 5g per kilogramme for mice, so if we assume it would be similar for humans a deadly amount would be at around 350g which isn't much more than a glass of it.
      He was completely right in his reaction by saying it isn't toxic normally used but also refusing to drink it...

      @Winston Smith Yeah because thats not a more complex subject more centered around decentralising energy production and general failures of some companies in a quasi-oligopole to keep the reactors safe.
      Also safely storing nuclear waste in Europes ever shifting enviroment for tens of thousands of years is, you know, kind of impossible. Hard to guarantee if your state isnt even 80 years old. Most companies fail to do so after three fucking decades, one of the scandals that led to this descision. Thats why reactors where phased out after the Fukushima catastrophe since public investigations had revealed the failures of security of german nuclear energy production while the companies were artificially increasing prices... So that had nothing to do with climate change. Also having giant machines capable of contaminating huge areas of tightly settled land to produce energy for the same area is kind of wastefull given the need for a potentially contaminated water source.
      Renewables are a better source for rural areas anyway, smaller communities can reliably produce for their own needs. Remember that they are still connected to an EU wide energy network so peak demand gets cancelled out over the network over different modes of production. Cities might rely on reactors, but your claim that Germany was getting rid of nuclear reactors for renewable energy for what I assume you mean Soalr and wind power is utter horsehit. Coal and Gas are getting phased out to reduce Co2 emissions and decentralise the energy network, reactors were shut down because they were checked and considered unsafe either in their construction, the way they were maintained or the lack of doing so, and the lack of general security around them, as well as the issue of nuclear waste.

      @Winston Smith Its never clever to assume you know more about another person because you read an Wikipedia article. Granted, I am not an engineer, but you are speaking to someone who studies studies enviromental and construction law. Still no degree in nuclear or civil engineering, but enough to know there is more about deciding wether to build a reactor in a community than "there is this cool safe new reactor type that doesnt have any problems, I swear!". Its a far more complicated subject than you make it out to be, centered around managing risks and ressources for the community.
      You didnt even engage my main argument. I didnt mention theoretically safe new reactor types- thats besides the whole discussion. This is not only an engineering problem about radiation and energy outputs alone.
      After the Fukushima incident, most german reactors and storage vaults were put under inspection, the results showing seriously aged infrastructure, mounting security problems around reactors, from cracks in the shielding to non-existant defense against terrorist incursions, careless storage of nuclear waste with residues of the same found in ground water, and you dont want that in a tightly settled nation like Germany.
      The existing reactor infrastructure in Germany was failing any safety standard out there. Thats why a lot of them had to be shut down, the energy companies had anytime the goverment had implemented new standards pushed this as extra costs on the consumer while in reality letting this slide. Just today it came out that a scientific test reactor in Munich- one of Germanys densely populated areas, mistakenly released C-14 into the atmosphere, with the company, Siemens, declaring it a "minor safety incident of little concern". City officials are of course pissed.
      Meanwhile, local renewables just became cheaper and safer for small communities- decentralising the energy network allows those to keep a lid on the energy prices as well as an eye on wether the company employed sticks to its part of the contract when it comes to the agreed safety standards.
      Thats why nuclear energy isnt really supported as an alternative here, its a nice solution for population centres- but going beyond existing infrastructure if the energy companies have shown unable to maintain what they have now would be irresponsible, and for rural areas who want to achieve some autonomy on energy production building nuclear reactors is out of the question anyway.
      This is no zero-sum game. Of course there will always be some nuclear reactors for dense population centres, a lot of them still running, and scientific reactors like München II are necessary to expand our knowledge in this field. But simply building molten salt reactors is not the easy solution to this situation you seem to make them out to be, and I havent even begun to talk about maintenance costs, the question of storage of waste, or the construction time measured in decades, when there are often cheaper alternatives that better serve the communities they are in while having less impact on their surrounding area.
      Its just illogical from a legal and civil engineering standpoint.
      See, a nice solution on paper doesnt always apply to the real world where cost and gain have to be weighed, and more localised renewables that have made leaps in efficiency over the last decade are certainly the more elegant solution than just hammering down centralised reactors if we measure costs for the specific community for maintaining said infrastructure against their specific energy needs. The unnecessarily complicated solution is not always the better one of it puts the community at risk- either by unnecessary drain on its ground water, levels of which are already critical after the droughts over the last years, and the ecological impact this has which again leads to economical damage or the even miniscule possibility of industrial accidents... The immissions, the emissions... (Yes, even nuclear reactors have those). The ecological footprint of nuclear reactors just doesnt add up to the communities needs, thats why they are often left out for more ecological solutions.
      The way you phrase your standpoint in the last sentence btw makes it look as if you arent interested in a reasonably weighed concept based around all surrounding factors, but a shiny technical solution, not the best argumentative angle to take if you want to claim the "scientific highground here". As the saying goes, facts dont care about your feelings. Reality is complicated, especially if ressouces like money, space, acceptable immission and emission levels and groundwater are as scarce as they are.

      @Anthony Centralizing the population in cities is exactly what has been happening for ~10,000 years, and look where it has got us. "Rural communities" (by no means a homogeneous entity by the way, but lets assume you mean rural communities in "developed" countries) as they exist under our present way of life are just extensions of cities, functions of cities ie; their purpose is to produce resources for the cities, through agriculture, mining, industry etc. A major feature of cities is that they draw resources in from a far greater landbase than that which they sit on. In the "developing" world, "development" has meant forcing self-sufficient agrarian communities off the land to live in poverty in massive, sprawling cities, in order to fuel industrial development and its hard to argue that that has produced less pollution. Look at India, China etc. for examples of this. "Development" has meant massive population boom, massive increase in pollution\CO2 production, urbanisation. Urbanisation by definition radically alters the rural landscape too, which is why you can make an argument such as the one you made. Industrial agriculture is a hugely destructive and environmentally damaging process, whose purpose is to feed cities. An extreme example of this is now seen where by products from every corner of the globe are funneled into cities at an enormous cost.

      ​@@Jeebles-mccreeblesit's definitely a mockumentary, this video doesn't represent all arguments against climate change, personally I think that the climate has been hotter in the past as can be seen in ice core evidence, it's not a linear progression, that point wasn't addressed in this video. I'm not denying that humans have an impact, I'm questioning the extent of our impact, it's obvious that we are damaging the planet, but it's not like the planet has maintained a steady temperature for millions of years and the only thing that's ever changed it is human behaviour... This video only addresses the taking points of Steven crowder and Ben Shapiro which is laughable. It hasn't touched on anything I believe atleast. Also the smug attitude of everyone in the comments isn't really helping bring people together too come too more of an agreement it's just mocking certain people and using Thier ideas too dumb down an opposing view and then argue against that dumbed down view. If anyone can prove that without humans affecting things the earth wouldn't already be in a state of warming I'd be interested too listen but people do the same thing that the guy in this video said the 'climate change deniers' are doing.. finding a video that supports your views that you want too believe them using it too feel good about what you already believed. Thing is we know the planet warms and cools without humans intervention, this is why we have ice ages, ice sheets have been shrinking for thousands of years, around 10000+ years ago most of Northern Europe was covered in ice sheets and humans weren't at the level of technological advancement too affect the climate, so how did it warm? Also there where periods before that where the planet cooled too from these ice sheets. The UK wasn't even an island back then, the sea levels have risen dramatically since 10000-15000 years ago. We are even discouraged from using the phrase 'global warming' and instead now use 'climate change' which I even think is some acknowledgement of the fact the planet goes through cycles of cooling and warming. From the get go this video had a mocking attitude, this is why I believe the guy was only ever looking too prove his preexisting belief. Even though he makes attempts too portray himself as making fair and rational attempts too consider both sides of the coin, which he doesn't in my opinion.
      Sorry for bad grammar and punctuation it's late please reply in a respectful way no mocking if you have something too say that might change my mind then please explain as I will read it and consider it.

    So fun fact about Antartica! Its not only the coldest place in the world, but also the DRYest! The only reason there is so much ice is just that it has built up over millions of years and just never melted. So if someone is claiming that Antarticas ice sheet is suddenly growing, what they are actually saying is that Antartica is getting wetter, which could also be a sign of climate change.

If you watch the actual video Hbomberguy thoroughly critiques Steven Crowders actual argument, therefore it isn't an ad hominem.
