    One of the sweetest stories coming out of the Berlin Airlift was "Uncle Wiggly Wings," aka "The Berlin Candy Bomber," aka Gail Halvorsen, one of the American pilots bringing in supplies to Berlin. He came across a group of Berlin children while his plane was being refueled, and he discovered that they hadn't seen candy in years. He gave them the gum in his pockets, then promised he would drop candy out of his plane the following day -- they would know it was him, because he would wiggle his wings as he was landing, and as he was tossing the candy out of the plane. From these humble beginnings began "Operation Little Vittles." Tons of candy was donated by US citizens, and it was dropped in a more organized manner., to the delight of crowds of children who gathered every day Halvorsen even dropped some candy on the Soviet sector, figuring those kids deserved candy, too, and almost started WWIII as a result. Halvorsen is still alive at age 100, and lives in Salt Lake City, Utah.

    This is how I remember the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was signed in 1948.....
    "Oh! Oh, yeah a little bit now. Earlier, uh, today Amnesty International announced a worldwide tour to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Declaration Of Human Rights (cheers). The Declaration Of Human Rights is a document that was signed by every government in the world 40 years ago, recognizing the existence of certain inalienable human rights for everyone regardless of your race, your color, your sex, your religion, your political opinion, or the type of government that you're living under. I, I was glad to be asked to participate and I'm proud to join Sting, and Peter Gabriel, Youssou N'Dour, Tracy Chapman, in a tour that's gonna begin in early September, and is gonna run for about six weeks (cheers). So, I'd like to get a, dedicate this next song to the people at Amnesty International and their idea. So when we come to your town, come on out, support the tour, support human rights for everyone now, and let freedom reign." - Bruce Springsteen, July 3rd, 1988, Stockholm, Sweden
    This was before he performed a cover of Bob Dylans' "Chimes of Freedom".

    Great work overall! Just one quibble. Maybe it's just my conspiratorial mindset, but the way the video talks about the "controversy" with Kinsey seems to me to suggest that the criticism is an outgrowth of prudish sexuality. Probably should emphasize that a large portion of the criticism is methodological; when we teach survey research, we use Kinsey as the archetypal example of selection bias in sampling. Thus, if we're going to mention the findings in detail (e.g., 10%) we should probably also mention that the findings, especially their magnitudes, are probably less than reliable.
    Then again, I'm probably one of a very small minority who triggered by selection bias. ;) Love the channel.

  • @PhillyPhanVinny
    @PhillyPhanVinny 3 роки тому +3

    I always find it annoying when people complain about American Baseball, Football (American) and Basketball leagures calling their champion's the "World Chapions". They are called the World champions because they are the best teams in those sports in the world and those claims are uncontested. If another league wants to be created and call themselves the best team in the world it can lead to those teams playing against each other to see who is actually the best team in the world.
    This happened in Football (American) when the AFL was created. The AFL contested the NFL's claim that their champion was the best team in the world. For awhile everyone knew the NFL teams were the better teams but as the AFL started to get some better players people started to question if the AFL champion could actually beat the NFL champion. This eventually is what led to the Super Bowl to determine which league actually had the best Football team in the world (the NFL won the first 2 Super Bowls). The creation of the World Series in Baseball also has similar roots. There were 2 American baseball leagues that were far better then all other baseball leagues in the US and the world. This led to those 2 leagues playing against each other at the end of their seasons to see who was actually the best baseball team in the world.
    So if another country wants to start up a league in any of those sports and they actually get to the skill level to compete with the American leagues teams they then should play against each other to see who the real best team in the world is for that sport. But in reality what happens is the best players from each country just come to play in the American sports leagues because that is where they are going to get paid the most money. So when there are great baseball players or basketball players in South America, Europe, Japan, the rest of Asia or anywhere else in the world they all almost always come to play in America eventually for some period of their playing time.

    I hate to burst your bubble, but Gamow and Alpher did not originate the 'Big Bang Theory' in 1948. They were building on the work of Fr Georges Lemaître, a physicist who taught at the Catholic University of Louvain, who proposed the theory 21 years before in 1927. Even Wikipedia says of Gamow, 'He was an early advocate and developer of Lemaître's Big Bang theory'.

      what are you the spokesperson of all 1.3 billion Indians, Gandhi is absolutely adored in India, only sections of the right wing seem to really hate him for obvious reasons, there's a reason why our notes are printed with his face in the centre, large government programmes either use his name or try to sell themselves as part of a Gandhian ideology, the Gandhi personality has the strongest appeal for common Indians across almost all ideological inclinations. *Even Bose called Gandhi "Father of the Nation" in a radio address* for a reason.
      mfw the guy who collaborated with foreign fascist-imperialists and lost most of his force committing to a doomed Japanese offensive (U-go) and in Battles of Imphal and Kohima is somehow more important than Gandhi who was actually leading mass movements inside India, the British were frightened of the Quit India movement and went very far to suppress it and realised how fragile their hold over India was in the long term because of it. The only sort of major role the INA ever played was during the INA trials.

Also our notes are printed like that because Gandhi and nehru were collaborators. Unless you're a six year old you would be knowing that if Gandhi was such a threat to the British they would have him assassinated. He lived in "first class jails" and yes I'm not making the term up. These jails had the best of facilities of that time. He also had bhagat Singh indirectly killed and stole credit for Indian independence from Netaji. Even the British agree that they left india due to revolts by ratings etc. And in reality all his movements were fakes and failed to do anything. And If you're an Indian I would be ashamed of you because of the fact you think the British were any better than fascists. They wiped out
      A quarter of our population in their war of righteousness (check Bengal famine). Netajis men did have victories at first it was just the fact that the Japanese refused to provide us with supplies that we lost. Read km patlas book you'll see how those men were eaten alive by maggots in the forest while our father of the nation was never hit by a lathi in his life. Also in his time when Netaji was a gandhian he did get beaten up by the British unlike Gandhi hiding. Lastly the brave soldiers of the ina still remain forgotten they aren't even mentioned in our NCERTs and after we got independence they received no pension from the government some soldiers used to clean utensils for a living. And here you are criticizing them. Have some shame. Our "father of the nation" led a "fast into death atleast 4 times" though he never died of it whereas sardar bhagat Singhs men did when they were in jail. So think before opening your mouth.

      Also Japanese slaughtered at the minimum 20 million Chinese, enslaved 4-10 million Indonesians, starved another 4 million Indonesians, massacred thousands of Malaysians, actively tried to genocide Malaysian Chinese, committed mass rape of Chinese and Korean women, employed slavery in their puppet states, conducted human experimentation in occupied territories, tested biological and chemical weapons on civilians, executed Indian pows who refused to join the INA, starved pows of allied powers, the list goes on. This is all in the course of like 8 years, it would be pretty naive to think they wouldn't do any of this here if they actually started occupying major parts of India, yes the British were responsible tens of millions of deaths by famine since the days of East India Company and even saw through a famine during the war, but by supporting the Japanese all you're doing is replacing one genocidal Empire with another this time with even more brutality.

It was Netaji S.C Bose who fought against "British Raj" and thus then rest of the royal indian army started mutiny. and if you ask why Britishers spread this, then it's simple. that they wanted to show them-self's very kind and Nobel to ther rest of the world that they left without fighting. huh what a horse shit. anyway can't blame you, it was political matter of that time.

      Gandhi was opposed to Partition, even offering to make Jinnah viceroy in an attempt to maintain one state. But the popular will of the Khalsa was for two states and Gandhi didn't feel he could stand in the way of the will of the people, especially since that would have meant trying to maintain one unified state by force. As such, he reluctantly accepted partition in the hopes that once the British had left, the Muslim League would realise what he deemed "their mistake" and would rejoin a unified India.

      Gandhi's primary objective was always keeping India united while simultaneously ensuring such an arrangement is not communal in nature, the fact that he wanted a United India is repeated constantly in statements of his contemporaries including Jinnah numerous times, for instance during the cabinet mission, (this was around 3rd April 1946) Gandhi expressed to the British delegation his wish to even let Jinnah form the interim government and pick whatever ministers he wanted, on the condition that there would be only one constitution making body and the government that would be answerable to a central assembly, Sardar Patel even told Wavell in 12th June that Gandhi had tried to convince the Congress Working Committee to accept the cabinet mission plan. And Nehru informed him that it was only on Gandhi's intervention that the Congress didn't flat out reject the idea of making a coalition government with the Muslim League. While simultaneously he wanted to maintain the secular nature of congress by maintaining Congress's right to nominate a Muslim Congress member, something which Jinnah was completely against. Even as late as April 1947 Gandhi was ready to let Jinnah form an all muslim government with Jinnah at his head if he gave up on his demand for a separate muslim state.
      Gandhi would only accept a partition if there was a popular will for it and if it could prevent violence, for instance he supported the C.R formula which allowed for a plebiscite in Muslim majority provinces once the British left India, letting the people choose for an independent Pakistan, something which the Muslim League and Jinnah flat out rejected as they did not want universal franchise and especially non-muslims to vote in a plebiscite that would partition the provinces themselves.
