  • Depends. Lots of shit doctors out there who don’t care avout their patient. I’ve seen guys go to a doctor with a problem, only to be barely checked, if at all, and sent home with an unhelpful prescription or advice.

    Plus gender-epecific conditions are poorly taught in med school, or to the wider public in general. Most members of the opposite sex rarely know about conditions affecting the other, or even their own. As a guy, I’ve learned about Endomitriosis because of youtube. But also I’ve learned that men have much worse symptoms with viruses than women, from a TV show.

    Thankfully there are many doctors who take their job very seriously, but it seems they are hard to come by, especially in the US.






  • So the AI provided factual information and they did not like that because ‘slavery bad, therefore there was no benefit to it.’ There were benefits to slavery, mainly for the owners. US had a huge cotton export at one point, with the fields being worked by slaves.

    But also a very few slaves did benefit, like being able to work a job that taught them very useful skills, which let them buy their own freedom, as they were able to earn money from it. Of course being a slave in the first place would be far better, but when you are one already, learning a skill that makes you earn your freedom and get a job afterwards is quite the blessing. Plus for a few individuals it might’ve been living in such terrible conditions, that being forced to work while getting fed might’ve not been so bad…



  • Unfortunately the death penalty is currently not about killing the criminal, but a good-looking death. Basically it does not matter if the person suffers for an hour, as long as it is not visible.

    From hanging, electrocution, to gassing (yes, US did that at one point) and lethal injections, the method was always slow and painful.

    With the lethal injections one, most chemicals were banned for it, so they are poorly researched by laymans, not as functional and literally made so the person is paralyzed, while they still can feel everything and can painfully be dying for half an hour.

    We had those types of tests but as to what type of secondary school you would fit in. I of course did not take that test, because I already had a plan. And those who did, ignored it anyway. Not sure what is worse. These job tests, or what people use as a reason for their decision, or the lack of one. Studying computer network technics, two in my class were actually interested in computers. The rest: ,Well, I play videogames, so I figured I could do well here."

    -their answer to the question of why they picked that study




  • Fairly balanced. She makes fun of both extremes and seems to have opinions from both sides, as well as covering topics from them. While she does cover far-left more than far-right, there does not seem to have a problematic bias towards one side.

    Of course a lot of leftists call her far-right, but that seems to be painfully common with all centre-leaning political youtubers. Turns out if you are far-left, anything from centre to right will seem far-right to you.

    Anyway, if you are interested in her, she is not as serious with most of her content, so you’ll probably stay for the humor, or balanced takes. As most political youtubers of her type, she is perfect to watch in terms of things both sides have completely different opinions on.
