      Seems like every PBS/Naturalist/YT/whatever mainstream channel has the same model of people narrating. At least let me pretend that the narrator has actually been out of the city before or has actually been on the planet long enough to understand some basic natural concepts and consequences. I miss Attenborough and Freeman and the like. As a kid this would have turned me off immediately as it sounds like the average curricular dribble from the average unhappy bureaucrat that thought themselves a teacher.

    Would it be "insect cruelty" if NatGeo could do a documentary about ants or other insects that are being fried, cooked and consumed in certain parts of the world? I'm already imagining the slow motion of the ants being thrown into the frying pan with some classical music (cliche) in the background. Well, maybe it's kinda cruel. 🤷‍♂
