bill nye is not a scientist, and he never claimed to be one. He is a science communicator, a role he has done well for some time.
Same with Neil DeGrasse Tyson.
NDT is a pompous ass
It's a downside of being educated and fascinated by what you've learned.
He kisses himself in the mirror
But only on the lips.
He also has credible sexual assault allegations against him.
I'm educated and fascinated by what I've learned too, and I've managed to not be an pompous ass... Oh wait, nevermind.
Mark rober manages just fine without being a pompous ass
Here is Mark Rober shilling for Anduril, an AI weapon company.
Well shit. Veritasium? Smarter every day?
Here is an advert by Veritasium for Google's car's (Waymo). It's a terrible video. It uncritically shills. It contains garbage "research." Here is a longer breakdown.
Smarter Every Day pushed Young Earth Creation talking points in a video where he tears up remembering his time developing guided missiles :(
I liked Mark Rober until about ten seconds ago, too :(
Its a raw youtube link (I'm a cave-dweller) so I'm putting it here: https://youtu.be/VPSm9gJkPxU?t=1615
