‘You’re Wrong About Birth Rates & Aging Populations’ | Post Mortem Stream

this show is not simply about The Wheel of Pain.

No offense but the mother nature corset reminded me of the stuff I'd find when I had to dig up rotting stumps, all the tangled fuzzy dirt lodged in the rotten roots
just what it reminded me of, it was very striking

For a while if been watching the episodes on Nebula and has forgotten that the port mortems were a thing. It's a little weird to come back and see ads again. Is there a technical limitation that means these must stay only on YouTube and can't be on Nebula?

Hi there, viewer from germany here. I'm very happy watching your videos (like everything else) in it's original version. If I don't speak the language of a work I usually go for english subtitles because they're more reliable.
Many people of my generation and younger people are fluent in english so we're fine with you not having them. (And those who don't know english usually don't go for english videos at all, so the subtitles won't be for them either)

ok i heard series of tubes and now i need to find that anonymous rave track making fun of the old man who said it first

Why not become like the Frankfurt school?

The subs has his right name in the.

I watch FunkyFrogBait too! Their most recent video has costumes and gay lighting too haha.

The Arsonist feels real on a level that his scenes feel haunting in a way that other characters don't quite.

Rolls-Royce isn't a Rolls-Royce channel either. They are a Gulfstream or Bombardier channel, because if you are contemplating tossing millions at a jet, then buying a Rolls is chump change.

You're looking radiant! :3

"Education is not the same as systemic change…" :shivers:

OK, Gillian Anderson in the thumbnail!

From Brazil here Abby, don't worry! Most people from here only watch our local content.. whoever has some english understanding and actually come to english content on the internet, well, subtitles aren't reeeeally a must. But thanks for the care!! Your work has impacted me in a super positive and trans-forming way <3

On the impact of the channel/"the work": It is pointless until it isn't. I think people have this view of activism that it's a matter of ONE BIG THING and then it's over, like it's Woodstock or the Obama election or whatever. Thing is, activism is a grind and it's called "a grind" because it often feels pointless/hopeless. But all of the sudden, the right person who've read, listened or watched the stories and education material comes along, and manages to turn the world on its head. MLK built on the works of countless of activists, abolitionists and just normal people lifting each other up because it was the right thing to do. Nelson Mandela was in prison for 30 years, don't you think he felt like all he was doing was pointless at times?

Look at the Gaza Freedom Flotilla. I don't think most people know (although you all might, given that we're all on this channel) that they've done these missions since 2010. People died on those boats. But they kept going, which meant that the infrastructure was there when the active g-cide started and suddenly, their work started mattering very quickly. In terms of education, I also think about Noam Chomsky, whom had a deep impact on many high visibility leftists that are active today and changed my own attitude/understanding towards the world in a profound way (I will say that this was before and is despite his apparent Epstein connection, which is… yikes). He was active for 50 years with few victories, but he kept going. As a result, 'manufacturing consent' is a standard term in leftist circles today, for instance. That's not nothing.

What I'm trying to express is that while it might feel like nothing we do matters, the truth is that everything we do matters. Power structures are unbending and often overwhelming; but the less they bend, the more likely it becomes that they'll eventually break. Activists are also very good at finding a way forward. They build walls, we dig holes. They strangle the internet, we take to the streets. They veil their actions in shadow, we shine a light on them. And when they try to make us ignorant, we educate each other; something that has been a mainstay of activism for hundreds of years, from study circles to pamphlets to rallies.

I'd advise anyone that feels hopeless to read about abolitionists and how they worked, or the birth of union movements, or the civil rights movement in the decades leading up to 'I have a dream', or even the underground activities during prohibition. There are plenty of places to find (nonviolent!) inspiration for more varied tactics, even under a repressive regime, and more often than not they're pretty simple. Like nailing a message on a door. (As an aside, Andreas Karlstadt was the one who did this, while it's doubtful Martin Luther did; another figure worth learning about).
