Episode 9: The sexual spectrum

i heard that the show is more political, but is it seriously going to lecture me on gender politics?

>>81927977
It's progressive propaganda. That's what Bill Nye does now. You have access to the internet, you don't need this fucking clown to spoonfeed you information.

>>81927628
Yeah they need to lose the audience, but keep them waifus especially the tall one and the engineering one who keeps looking at Nye like she wants to fuck him.

>>81927628
Damn I wish this cunt would actually teach some cool engineering shit because then he can't load it with whatever race or gender stuff he wants
What a fucking hack

>>81928039

A March for Science guy was interviewed on KCBS on Friday and was asked how he had time to be out of his lab to march for science and he said if funding for battling climate change were cut he wouldn't have a lab anyway so he had to march. This isn't verbatim. This person spoke with a lisp

I agree. Overall, the show is really disappointing. Presenting information in a format like this isn't effective at actually educating people. They should have put more work into researching science communication if they actually wanted to achieve to goal of informing people about some of these topics.

>>81928358
>legitimate pop scientists
Because that's seen as a contradiction in actual scientific circles. If you're a person that been on TV, for the most part, other academics aren't going to take you seriously because of the bullshit you have to say to make things seem interesting.

I had a professor that was offered a TV show on Animal Planet right out of grad school. He turned it down without even thinking because he didn't want to fuck his career over.

This bit here really made watching it difficult for me. I dont understand why they bother having guests on with differing opinions if they are just going to take jabs at them instead of debating their points.

>>81929118
>Presenting information in a format like this isn't effective at actually educating people.
It feels like they tried to do a science program with the daily show format and it doesnt work.
Plus it feels like an hour long show edited down to 30 minutes. Lame comedy bits ate up too much time and the pannel section is so cut down that it turns into strawman bashing time.
And the correspondent sections are so shallow i dont get what the point was beyond the two waifus.

That's a great question. You should ask a progressive why they've built a political platform on these types of issues.

>it's a /pol/ gets butthurt and ruins another thread episode

>>81928336
Politics have everything to do with everything.

>>81927628
science isnt science anymore

evidence and reproducibility are useless

anecdotal evidence and loose correlations are sufficient for the vast mass of society

science is politics now

Is it available somewhere? I'll watch it for cringekino

>>81928336
Discussing politics are about arguing over anything government can have any impact on. Gender discrimination, like almost all discrimination, is something the government can have an impact on. People that believe it's a serious issue will be more likely to talk about it when discussing politics, and people that think it's a minor issue or a nonexistent issue will want oppose any government action around it.

I liked the Rembrandt section in the AI episode.

>>81929710
Wow, just wow...

>>81929600
I can agree with pretty much all of that. It's like they tried to gear it more towards sarcastic humor than education, which is a pretty terrible choice for a education show. I mean, I'm watching the episode about diets right now, and the talk about the Paelo diet is laughable bad. Instead of talking about how prehistoric people actually ate to debunk the diet, they're relying on bad humor and old, inaccurate tropes about everyone being miserable and dying at 15.

If he would have kept the same format as his old show and made the content better for a more mature audience, this would have been much better.

A pretty large portion of the country votes for people based on traditions that promote "traditional values." To me, trying to pass laws based on "stop doing what I don't like" counts as focusing on those issues. Hell, just go back to /pol/ and see how many people are going to be complaining about how certain kinds of things are allowed.

Wanna know how to solve "man made climate change"? Nuke India and China and convert every other country to nuclear energy.

Until leftists start advocating those things, I do not believe they actually care about solving it, and instead are simply using it as a vehicle to give more power to the state.

In addition, I think saving Western civilization is more important right now than addressing climate change. The Islamic hellhole the world is trending towards developing right now won't give a fuck about the environment. I'd rather my children live in a free society where they have the ability to solve climate change rather than living in a nightmare Islamic theocracy.

Its not even a question of political ideology. Its where the phrase NIMBY came from I believe (Not In My Back Yard). Even people who support it won't agree to put it in their neighborhood. With all the red tape and regulations put on them means it takes for fucking ever to get one up and running which means there are so many more chances for the whole thing to fail.

Osama bin Laden and his aides have, on more than one occasion, denounced the United States for damaging the environment.

"You have destroyed nature with your industrial waste and gases more than any other nation in history. Despite this, you refuse to sign the Kyoto agreement so that you can secure the profit of your greedy companies and industries."

Ayman al-Zawahiri, Osama bin Laden's aide, said global warming reflected:
