Youtube daily report w Feb 8 2018

North Korea is often called the world's most secretive country.

When western journalists have been allowed inside, they said what they saw was a kind

of show, rather than reality.

The western media routinely reports on North Korea's nuclear capabilities, while inside

North Korea, the big bad wolf is the West.

In 2017, the country was blamed by the U.S. and the U.K for the massive WannaCry cyber-attack,

while North Korea said this was nonsense and the accusation was just to foment more hatred

against the country.

One thing that is certain, though, is that North Korea is hidden somewhat behind a curtain

of secrecy.

Today we will attempt to make some things more clear, at least in terms of who matters

most in the realms of North Korean leadership, in this episode of the Infographics Show,

Who Runs North Korea?

Don't forget to subscribe and click the bell button so that you can be part of our

Notification Squad.

The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is under Communist rule.

The 24.5 million people that live there, do so under what is called the Supreme Leader.

This man is extolled constantly in the North Korean media, which is run by the government.

TV and radio does not allow criticism of the government through these channels, according

to the BBC, nor does it allow negative news to air in regards to things such as poverty

or human rights abuses.

But, our question today is, who is behind all this?

Well, whoever controls the media wields a great amount of power.

The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) controls newspapers, TV, and periodicals.

So it's safe to say that the Director General of this agency is an important man in the

country.

His name is Kim Ki-ryong according to some sources, but North Korea Leadership Watch

tells us he just died.

We cannot find who took over in this position, so we will have to leave it there.

All we can say is that this position is very important.

Two of the things the West often hears about North Korea is the pervasive propaganda and

also how the country has become a military of significant strength.

Who runs the military?

Well, that is the Supreme Leader, but he has back up in the form of the Defense Minister.

His name is Pak Yong-sik.

This 67 year old took over the position in 2015 after the former minister, Hyon Yong-chol,

was executed for insubordination.

The BBC reports that hundreds of people watched as the man was shredded by anti-aircraft guns.

South Korea's National Intelligence Agency reported that two other men were executed

at the same time.

One of them was killed because he had disagreed with the Supreme Leader over a matter regarding

members of an orchestra.

Holding a lesser position in the North Korean military is the Chief of General Staff.

That position is held by Ri Myong-su, and it is reported by the western press that he

also took the place of a man that had fallen from the graces of the great leader and was

executed for corruption.

This was confirmed by South Korean sources, although the same sources later retracted

the execution story and said he was still alive.

The current chief is one of the top guys when it comes to launching missiles, and he is

overseeing North Korea's nuclear tests and running of the army.

He's said to be 82, which makes him well past retirement age.

According to NKNews, there is no retirement age when you can collect a government pension

in North Korea.

Let's now take a look at the government and how laws are formed.

North Korea has a Supreme People's Assembly which is filled by elected deputies from 687

constituencies around the country.

While this is made up of many people, it's ruled over by what's called a Presidium.

The President of the Presidium is another guy that looks like he should have hung up

his gloves sometime in the 90s.

His name is Kim Yong-nam.

He is a sprightly 89 years old and has a very important job.

If treaties need signing, he's the man with the pen.

If leaders of other nations come to visit, then he is the person they'll be seeing.

In spite of his age, he has recently travelled the globe for diplomatic relations.

He is described by western diplomats as very clever and pleasant to talk with, and he is

regarded as a very powerful figure in North Korea.

Another big-wig holding almost as much power in politics is Choe Thae-bok.

He's the Chairman of the Supreme People's Assembly and has been an advisor to the Supreme

Leader, present and past, for many years.

He is also described as very intelligent, being fluent in English, German, and Russian.

He spends a lot of time travelling the globe, and could also be said to be a mature man

as he is 87 years old.

That didn't stop him visiting Iran in 2017 to improve relations with that country.

Under him is the Vice Chairman of the Supreme People's Assembly.

That position goes to Kim Wan-su, who is, relatively speaking, a young buck at just

78 years old.

He was also the former President of the Central Bank of the Democratic People's Republic of

Korea, which is another big position to have in the country.

The present President of the Central Bank is Kim Chon-gyun.

This man has been modernizing the country's banking systems and recently has been helping

North Korea's citizens to receive loans and credit cards.

Another position next to military matters, money and making laws, is the person who presides

over the country's courts.

That goes to the Supreme Court President and his name is Pak Myong-chol.

He is the man at the top when it comes to matters of civil and criminal law.

If you've turned your back on the country's propaganda, you can expect that the sometimes

unjust sentence you receive had something to do with him.

So, now we come to the biggest names in who runs North Korea.

The main man under The Supreme Leader is the Premier of North Korea, Pak Pong-ju.

The 78 year old plays a huge part in the country's economic policies, it's military, and basically

implements all policies that are determined by the Worker's Party of Korea's Central

Committee.

There is only one man bigger, and that's The Supreme Leader, an almost God-like figure

that is the face of the country.

Right now, that is Kim Jong-un, a man who could be either 33, 34, or 35, depending on

what you are reading.

He is the Chairman of the Workers' Party of Korea, but also holds a slew of different

positions.

He went to a private school in Switzerland, and later in life was awarded an honorary

doctorate in Economics.

Inside the country, he's described as "a great person born of heaven" and outside

he's seen more appearing in comedic Internet memes.

As we said, he has too many titles to recount, but he is no doubt the most powerful person

in the country.

This list has only contained men so far, so we could say this is a very patriarchal leadership.

While most countries follow this structure, North Korea has been criticized and mocked

for being a country run by very old men on death's door.

So, we have an honorable mention on this list, and that person has been called the most powerful

woman in North Korea.

Her name is Kim Yo-jong, and she is the younger sister of the Supreme Leader.

She's 30 years old and said to have a very good relationship with her brother compared

to some other family members.

Some of those were reportedly executed, and one even fed to dogs.

That itself tells you something about her power, but she also holds a position in the

Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea.

She is currently her brother's Chief of Staff, or Chief Secretary, whereby she pretty

much organizes his time, security, and movements.

She's the main woman for the main man, and a trusted family member to the leader in a

family that is seemingly torn apart.

Could some of you North Korea experts add some more people to this list?

Do you believe how North Korea is portrayed by the western media to be the whole truth,

or are we also sometimes the victims of propaganda?

DON'T SAY "BUT"[*ACTIVATE THE SUBTITLES*] with pdf file for subscribers [INTERMEDIATE] - Duration: 8:21.

This video is going to be very quick

today I'm going to tell you why you shouldn't use the word "but" all the time

but before we start, rememebr that if you subscribe to the channel

you'll be given access to the PDF files

with extra exercises and homework based on my videos

so please, subscribe

Let's get started

First of all, I need to say that you can use the word "but"

However

the objective of this channel is to hel you improve your English

So, you already know the word "but"

so the objective now is to get better and better

the best way is to find a variety of more advanced words to

to replace the basic words that you normally use

Yes, Rodger, sometimes when I am speaking I feel

that my vocabulary is very simple

I would like to improve it a lot

yes, it's always good to learn new words

and sophisticate your language

you have to practice that a lot

Asian style

can I use the word "but"?

yes, you can. But not all the time.

I love using my *B U T T *

Yeah, man, but I'm not talking about that!!!

Are there two kinds?

but / buttocks

(with only one T) is used when we put two sentences together

but one is positive and another one is negative

or one is opposite to the other

For example "I like chocolate but I'm on a diet"

and with double T

it's the buttocks

it's ok

you can look at my butt

I feel like I can really be vulnerable around you.

Interesting

yes, but it's not what we're going to talk about today in this video

in this video I'm going to tell you not to use but all the time

I'll teach you 5 expressions to replace the word "but"

however, even though, although, though and "having said that"

I need a volunteer! Student!

Can I use you?

use me and abuse me

Alright

Think of a person

a person?

think of a good-looking person

a good-looking person?

YES

I'm thinking of a very good-looking person

very good-looking

tell me... who are you thinking of?

I'm thinking of you, Rodger

a very good-looking person

well, it's true. I'm very good-looking

tell me one positive thing about me

You're very sexy

ok, so...Repeat:

Rodger is sexy

now tell me one negative thing about me

you are very aggressive and dangerous

But I asked you to tell me only one negative thing about me. but it's ok. No problem.

how can we put these two things together?

I'm sexy / I'm aggressive

how can we connect these two sentences?

Rodger is sexy but he is aggressive and dangerous.

yes, it's accurate

Rodger is sexy but he is aggressive and dangerous.

but let's try to avoid the word "but"

and let's replace it with the word "however"

so how is the sentence with "however"?

Rodger is sexy. However, he is aggressive and dangerous.

Yes

Rodger is sexy. However, he is violent and dangerous

When you use "however" it's more sophisticated.

and then you have a variety of words

but this is just the forst word. I'm going to teach you more

now, instead of saying "however"

use the word:

"although"

Rodger is sexy, although he is aggressive

yes

and the good thing about "although" is that you can use it

at the beginning of a sentence or in the middle of it

you can say:

Rodger is sexy, although he is very aggressive. OR . Although Rodger is sexy, he is very aggressive.

so "although" is more flexible

flexible?!?!??!

yes

so far, I've taught you two words that can replace the word "but"

"however" and "although"'

I prefer "although" because it's flexible

just like me

I can prove it!!!

stop it. Let's continue

I'm going to teach you another expression

even though

you use "even though" the same way that you use "although"

either at the beginning or in the middle of a sentence

so

repeat:

Even though

Ican use "even though" in the middle of the sentence too

even though

exactly!

we've seen three expressions so far:

"however, although and even though"

teach me more!!!

another expression that can replace the word "but" is

though (very common at the end of sentences but it's possible to use it at the beginning as well)

though (similar to "but" but normally at the end of a sentence)

yes

thank you

anoither expression to replace "but" is

having said that (similar to however)

and you use it "in the middle" of a sentence

for example

Rodger is sexy. Having said that, he is very aggressive.

what are you doing?

I'm trying to prove that I'm very flexible

why do you want to do that?

I want to impress you

Man! You really need a girlfriend!

yes, but. I'm forever alone.

it's true. It happens because you are very boring and annoying.

but I'm going to help you

I have five girl friends

and

these girls are single, so

I want to introduce you to one of my girl friends.

and they are very nice girls

girls?

ok.....but...

I'll tell you positive and negative things about the girls. Then you will choose one of the girls

and I'll give you her phone number

and then maybe one thing will lead to another

I don't know Rodger

seriously man! you need a girlfriend

ok, tell me the positive and negative things about these girls

I'll tell him some positive and some negative things about my girl friends

pay attention to how I use the words we've seen today.

The first girl is Jolie

She has beautiful eyes. However, she is very annoying.

The next girl is Alissa

Although Alissa is very intelligent, she is really demanding

The third girl is Jessy

She has a sexy body. Having said that, she is clingy.

the next girl is Sandy.

Sandy is very rich. She is ugly though.

and the last girl is Valentina.

Even though Valentina is very extrovert, she is unfaithful

interesting!!!

choose a girl, and I'll give you her telephone number!

Rodger....I think I prefer Valentina.

Valentina?! But.....

She is unfaithful

she's going to cheat on you

You know what they say...Love is blind.

ok man

this is Valentina's phone number

thank you

wow!!! I'm so lucky!

books just to have him read it to me and I'll ask the questions and have him read

it back it starts at home it really starts at home it helps him understand a

little bit better if he's more willing to do it at pcs information right if he

The BBC reports that hundreds of people watched as the man was shredded by anti-aircraft guns.

South Korea's National Intelligence Agency reported that two other men were executed

at the same time.

One of them was killed because he had disagreed with the Supreme Leader over a matter regarding

members of an orchestra.

Holding a lesser position in the North Korean military is the Chief of General Staff.

That position is held by Ri Myong-su, and it is reported by the western press that he

also took the place of a man that had fallen from the graces of the great leader and was

executed for corruption.

This was confirmed by South Korean sources, although the same sources later retracted

the execution story and said he was still alive.

The current chief is one of the top guys when it comes to launching missiles, and he is

overseeing North Korea's nuclear tests and running of the army.

He's said to be 82, which makes him well past retirement age.

According to NKNews, there is no retirement age when you can collect a government pension

in North Korea.

Let's now take a look at the government and how laws are formed.

North Korea has a Supreme People's Assembly which is filled by elected deputies from 687

constituencies around the country.

While this is made up of many people, it's ruled over by what's called a Presidium.

The President of the Presidium is another guy that looks like he should have hung up

his gloves sometime in the 90s.

His name is Kim Yong-nam.

He is a sprightly 89 years old and has a very important job.

If treaties need signing, he's the man with the pen.

If leaders of other nations come to visit, then he is the person they'll be seeing.

In spite of his age, he has recently travelled the globe for diplomatic relations.

He is described by western diplomats as very clever and pleasant to talk with, and he is

regarded as a very powerful figure in North Korea.

Another big-wig holding almost as much power in politics is Choe Thae-bok.

He's the Chairman of the Supreme People's Assembly and has been an advisor to the Supreme

Leader, present and past, for many years.

He is also described as very intelligent, being fluent in English, German, and Russian.

He spends a lot of time travelling the globe, and could also be said to be a mature man

as he is 87 years old.

That didn't stop him visiting Iran in 2017 to improve relations with that country.

Under him is the Vice Chairman of the Supreme People's Assembly.

That position goes to Kim Wan-su, who is, relatively speaking, a young buck at just

78 years old.

He was also the former President of the Central Bank of the Democratic People's Republic of

Korea, which is another big position to have in the country.

The present President of the Central Bank is Kim Chon-gyun.

This man has been modernizing the country's banking systems and recently has been helping

North Korea's citizens to receive loans and credit cards.

Another position next to military matters, money and making laws, is the person who presides

over the country's courts.

That goes to the Supreme Court President and his name is Pak Myong-chol.

He is the man at the top when it comes to matters of civil and criminal law.

If you've turned your back on the country's propaganda, you can expect that the sometimes

unjust sentence you receive had something to do with him.

So, now we come to the biggest names in who runs North Korea.

The main man under The Supreme Leader is the Premier of North Korea, Pak Pong-ju.

The 78 year old plays a huge part in the country's economic policies, it's military, and basically

implements all policies that are determined by the Worker's Party of Korea's Central

Committee.

There is only one man bigger, and that's The Supreme Leader, an almost God-like figure

that is the face of the country.

Right now, that is Kim Jong-un, a man who could be either 33, 34, or 35, depending on

what you are reading.

He is the Chairman of the Workers' Party of Korea, but also holds a slew of different

positions.

He went to a private school in Switzerland, and later in life was awarded an honorary

doctorate in Economics.

Inside the country, he's described as "a great person born of heaven" and outside

he's seen more appearing in comedic Internet memes.

As we said, he has too many titles to recount, but he is no doubt the most powerful person

in the country.

This list has only contained men so far, so we could say this is a very patriarchal leadership.

While most countries follow this structure, North Korea has been criticized and mocked

for being a country run by very old men on death's door.

So, we have an honorable mention on this list, and that person has been called the most powerful

woman in North Korea.

Her name is Kim Yo-jong, and she is the younger sister of the Supreme Leader.

She's 30 years old and said to have a very good relationship with her brother compared

to some other family members.

Some of those were reportedly executed, and one even fed to dogs.

That itself tells you something about her power, but she also holds a position in the

Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea.

She is currently her brother's Chief of Staff, or Chief Secretary, whereby she pretty

much organizes his time, security, and movements.

She's the main woman for the main man, and a trusted family member to the leader in a

family that is seemingly torn apart.

Could some of you North Korea experts add some more people to this list?

Do you believe how North Korea is portrayed by the western media to be the whole truth,

or are we also sometimes the victims of propaganda?

DON'T SAY "BUT"[*ACTIVATE THE SUBTITLES*] with pdf file for subscribers [INTERMEDIATE] - Duration: 8:21.

This video is going to be very quick

today I'm going to tell you why you shouldn't use the word "but" all the time

but before we start, rememebr that if you subscribe to the channel

you'll be given access to the PDF files

with extra exercises and homework based on my videos

so please, subscribe

Let's get started

First of all, I need to say that you can use the word "but"

However

the objective of this channel is to hel you improve your English

So, you already know the word "but"

so the objective now is to get better and better

the best way is to find a variety of more advanced words to

to replace the basic words that you normally use

Yes, Rodger, sometimes when I am speaking I feel

that my vocabulary is very simple

I would like to improve it a lot

yes, it's always good to learn new words

and sophisticate your language

you have to practice that a lot

Asian style

can I use the word "but"?

yes, you can. But not all the time.

I love using my *B U T T *

Yeah, man, but I'm not talking about that!!!

Are there two kinds?

but / buttocks

(with only one T) is used when we put two sentences together

but one is positive and another one is negative

or one is opposite to the other

For example "I like chocolate but I'm on a diet"

and with double T

it's the buttocks

it's ok

you can look at my butt

I feel like I can really be vulnerable around you.

Interesting

yes, but it's not what we're going to talk about today in this video

in this video I'm going to tell you not to use but all the time

I'll teach you 5 expressions to replace the word "but"

however, even though, although, though and "having said that"

I need a volunteer! Student!

Can I use you?

use me and abuse me

Alright

Think of a person

a person?

think of a good-looking person

a good-looking person?

YES

I'm thinking of a very good-looking person

very good-looking

tell me... who are you thinking of?

I'm thinking of you, Rodger

a very good-looking person

well, it's true. I'm very good-looking

tell me one positive thing about me

You're very sexy

ok, so...Repeat:

Rodger is sexy

now tell me one negative thing about me

you are very aggressive and dangerous

But I asked you to tell me only one negative thing about me. but it's ok. No problem.

how can we put these two things together?

I'm sexy / I'm aggressive

how can we connect these two sentences?

Rodger is sexy but he is aggressive and dangerous.

yes, it's accurate

Rodger is sexy but he is aggressive and dangerous.

but let's try to avoid the word "but"

and let's replace it with the word "however"

so how is the sentence with "however"?

Rodger is sexy. However, he is aggressive and dangerous.

Yes

Rodger is sexy. However, he is violent and dangerous

When you use "however" it's more sophisticated.

and then you have a variety of words

but this is just the forst word. I'm going to teach you more

now, instead of saying "however"

use the word:

"although"

Rodger is sexy, although he is aggressive

yes

and the good thing about "although" is that you can use it

at the beginning of a sentence or in the middle of it

you can say:

Rodger is sexy, although he is very aggressive. OR . Although Rodger is sexy, he is very aggressive.

so "although" is more flexible

flexible?!?!??!

yes

so far, I've taught you two words that can replace the word "but"

"however" and "although"'

I prefer "although" because it's flexible

just like me

I can prove it!!!

stop it. Let's continue

I'm going to teach you another expression

even though

you use "even though" the same way that you use "although"

either at the beginning or in the middle of a sentence

so

repeat:

Even though

Ican use "even though" in the middle of the sentence too

even though

exactly!

we've seen three expressions so far:

"however, although and even though"

teach me more!!!

another expression that can replace the word "but" is

though (very common at the end of sentences but it's possible to use it at the beginning as well)

though (similar to "but" but normally at the end of a sentence)

yes

thank you

anoither expression to replace "but" is

having said that (similar to however)

and you use it "in the middle" of a sentence

for example

Rodger is sexy. Having said that, he is very aggressive.

what are you doing?

I'm trying to prove that I'm very flexible

why do you want to do that?

I want to impress you

Man! You really need a girlfriend!

yes, but. I'm forever alone.

it's true. It happens because you are very boring and annoying.

but I'm going to help you

I have five girl friends

and

these girls are single, so

I want to introduce you to one of my girl friends.

and they are very nice girls

girls?

ok.....but...

I'll tell you positive and negative things about the girls. Then you will choose one of the girls

and I'll give you her phone number

and then maybe one thing will lead to another

I don't know Rodger

seriously man! you need a girlfriend

ok, tell me the positive and negative things about these girls

I'll tell him some positive and some negative things about my girl friends

pay attention to how I use the words we've seen today.

The first girl is Jolie

She has beautiful eyes. However, she is very annoying.

The next girl is Alissa

Although Alissa is very intelligent, she is really demanding

The third girl is Jessy

She has a sexy body. Having said that, she is clingy.

the next girl is Sandy.

Sandy is very rich. She is ugly though.

and the last girl is Valentina.

Even though Valentina is very extrovert, she is unfaithful

interesting!!!

choose a girl, and I'll give you her telephone number!

Rodger....I think I prefer Valentina.

Valentina?! But.....

She is unfaithful

she's going to cheat on you

You know what they say...Love is blind.

ok man

this is Valentina's phone number

thank you

You Don't Understand Subnautica - Duration: 12:18.

Subnautica, more like SubNOTica!

Ohhhhh!

Good thing this game is completely underwater cuz they're going to need some ice for that

burn!

That's right, I got a beef with this..beautiful..mesmerizing… masturbato- I mean masterpiece of gaming craftsmanship.

Despite my overarching goal of exposing Subnautica for what it truly is, I absolutely love this

game.

The graphics are breathtaking and the underwater scenery is vibrant and eye catching, specifically

at night where it looks like you just joined an underwater rave with Sebastian on the electric

conch.

The gameplay is sleek and user friendly, while the movement and pacing of your character

feels very real and freeform, allowing you to really immerse yourself within the wet

realism of the game.

The pacing is excellent for a long slow gaming day, relaxing for the most part with surprisingly

stressful and attention grabbing events that sporadically keep your interest engaged along

the way.

The plot almost becomes a second priority to exploration, as you look for new alien

mysteries to fill your eyes and mind with wonder.

Alright.

Now that I've finished my solo circle jerk performance over this game, there's something

you need to know.

You don't understand Subnautica.

Beneath the calm, sunkissed surface of this game lies a dark and sinister story.

One that has been written again and again with the blood and tears people throughout

history.

This isn't a story of survival, quite the opposite in fact.

This is the story of the past, the tale of countless lost voices all put together and

covered under the veil of a beautiful game.

You are not the hero of Subnautica.

Your survival on planet 4546B isn't a good thing.

In fact, your success at escaping the planet is the last nail in the coffin for every other

lifeform that lives there.

Join me as I show you the truth about Subnautica and the treacherous clues that led us there.

For you shoebies out there who haven't had the chance to experience the underwater sensation

that literally translates to "Subnautica", I'll go through a quick rundown of the plot

and gameplay for you.

You are a crew member of the ship, the Aurora, a ship..

IN SPAAACCEEE!!!!!

IT'S IN SPACE!

Cuz this game takes place in the future, in the late 22nd century to be exact.

Your ship is actually traveling on the outer reaches of controlled space in search of another

colonization ship that has gone missing.

The Aurora is suddenly struck by a volt of energy, and comes crashing into the sea of

planet 4546B much like another phallic shape might come crashing down after an explosive

event.

Nudge nudge, Wink wink...sex.

We pick up the story as the ship is coming down, our character frantically fastening

themselves into one of the escape pods that gets jettisoned during the crash.

Congratulations, you're the sperm your ship has shot onto this unsuspecting planet, now

the question is, will you survive or die?

You wake up to flames ablazing in your escape pod.

WHAT WILL YOU EVER DO???

It's not like you're literally surrounded by water or anything!

Luckily there's a handy dandy fire extinguisher that you'll never use again but you'll

keep in your inventory like a dumbass just in case you happen to experience the first

natural underwater fire.

Now you have one simple goal: Survive.

So into the depths we go!

And the first thing we find is…

ACID MUSHROOMS??? these things have to be trippy as hell….oh boy….I feel fuzzy…

Oh, or you can use them for batteries.

That works too I guess.

So after a shroomy brain-expanding experience, we've come to the majority of the game,

scuba diving and collecting resources.

We can find fish, plants, minerals, literally everything we need to create food, water,

and every other piece of machinery we might need.

Course the most sophisticated machine is the fabricator we're working with, but we don't

need to get into how ridiculous that thing is.

I mean it can make filtered water from a bladder fish.

Given what I know about bladders I don't want to know how or what it's doing, I'm

just going to blindly drink it...aww man...I'm drinking pee aren't I?

Golden showers aside, the game goes on and you get more advanced gadgetry that allows

you to swim further and deeper for longer.

You learn that other pods also escaped the Aurora, but upon finding them, all the other

people seem to be missing.

In fact there's even some creepy radio signals from aliens that are going to hunt down the

survivors.

However you're able to repair your escape pod which is equipped with a radio and it

begins continuously sending out SOS signals.

Eventually one of those signals is picked up by a passing trade ship called the Sunbeam

and they make a detour to save your soggy butt.

You're saved!...not.

They totally get shot down by a giant energy laser beam from this Quarantine Enforcement

Platform.

Essentially, it's a planetary defense system to make sure nothing leaves the planet.

We later find out the reason for this defense system.

Planet 4546B was first used as a research outpost by aliens called "The Precursors"!

These aliens were responsible for an outbreak of infectious bacteria known as the Kharaa

Bacterium which has now infected the entire ocean.

The Precursors were working on a cure for this infection, and the giant Zeus lasers

are to make sure the infection stays quarantined.

The Kharaa Bacterium has now infected you, so if you're going to get off this planet,

you have to cure the disease!

So you do some more 'sploring, find the largest being in the game, the Sea Emperor

Leviathan, which leads you to hatching her eggs so that the babies can spread an enzyme

called Enzyme 42 which cures the sea of the Kharaa Bacterium, and then you build a rocket

ship to leave the planet.

Holy fuck, thats a lot of stuff you gotta do considering you're literally just swimming

around a lot.

On the surface the game seems innocent enough, you crash landed on a planet and you have

to survive and through miraculous luck, an OP fabricator, and scuba diving that defies

the laws of pressurization, you succeed.

But if you've learned anything from this channel, you know by now that there's always

something else going on.

In this case we have to ask the question "why?"

Why were we flying over Planet 4546B in the outer reaches of controlled space to begin

with?

The answer comes down to one word: Colonization.

You might remember me mentioning earlier that the Aurora was on a journey to find quote,

"another colonization ship".

You see, according to the lore of Subnautica, in the late 22nd century humans are in the

process of colonizing other planets.

Apparently we didn't learn about how shitty it was when we started colonizing other places

on earth.

Now this might not seem like a red flag to you, but it should.

Colonization (as it has played out in history) is the act of settling among and establishing

control over the indigenous people of an area.

Basically what the English and Spanish and French did to the natives of America and Canada.

Many people assume colonization just means settling in an untamed and unexplored land.

If you're Elon Musk striving to make civilization in the vast, lifeless, iron desert that is

Mars then fair enough...but in Subnautica we're talking about humans occupying a place

already teaming with life.

So in this case, colonization actually refers to taking control over the land and its inhabitants.

When this happens, control is established and colonies are generally used to extract

valuable resources, essentially gutting the land for the gain of whatever homeland is

colonizing with no care about the people or animals who already call that area home.

So, Subnautica's story already isn't exactly what you might have expected.

You're part of a crew that is essentially looking to fuck over lifeforms on other planets,

you dick.

You may have heard the phrase "The empire on which the sun never sets".

This phrase, which historically has referred to both Spain and Britain, and now has been

applied to the United States, embodies this idea of colonization.

An empire can be so vast and expanding into lands so far away from each other that it

will always have sunlight touching it no matter the time of day.

Impressive.

But!

Colonization is a huge reason we had slavery.

Indigenous natives were subjugated, controlled, and forced to work for no wages and in poor

working conditions.

Colonists often brought diseases that the indigenous people had no immunities to, and

a simple disease like the chicken pox would kill an entire village of indigenous people.

I don't want to get into the entirety of the history of colonization, but it's a

bloody path filled with horrendous actions that a foreign people did on another just

because they were from a different place.

And that sentiment brings us back to Subanutica, and your role in it.

The Aurora is looking for another colonization ship, meaning that the original ship, the

Degassi, was looking to establish a colony on Planet 4546B.

That's why your ship is already equipped with scuba gear and the ability to create

underwater equipment.

After building a Phasegate to make it easier to travel to the planet, the crew of the Aurora

was planning on landing on Planet 4546B to search for the survivors of the Degassi.

Those survivors were supposed to be the first colonists for the planet.

Now take that information into account with the rest of the game.

You not only survived, but cured the infection that plagued the planet.

Upon your return to earth there's no reason why the Alterra Corporation can't send another

ship to construct the Phasegate and harvest the planet for all it's worth.

We know first hand just how rich the ocean is with plants and minerals.

We had to harvest them to survive.

Your survival is the death sentence for that planet.

Since 4546B is fully submerged in water, aside from a few islands, humans wouldn't end

up settling there as a home.

Instead they'd come to harvest the vast amount of resources it has, likely destroying

the entire planet's ecosystem in the process.

And your character has a list of everything that planet has to offer, including how common

or rare certain resources are and a general idea of where to look to find what.

You're the gunline just waiting to hear to word "fire".

You're the executioner of all life on that planet.

All because you survived.

But...it's not wholly your fault.

You see, mankind is not the first race to colonize this planet.

Its written right into the plot, a race came here before you.

A race that made the planet what it is today.

The Precursors were the first colonists of 4546B.

They came, created structures and experimented on the natives of the the planet, aka the

Leviathans.

The Precursors took their children and experimented on them, killing them in the process, with

no thought as to what they were doing to the Leviathans.

They caged these massive creatures to run tests to cure the Kharaa Bacterium.

Ironically, they ended up being the reason the infection spread across the entire planet.

And so they quarantined the planet before they left.

Subnautica is not the story of one person's survival.

It's the story of colonization.

Of one group unleashing a plague, and another curing it, only to harvest the planet's

resources.

Disease and stripping the land of its wealth are wrought from colonization, and it's

all too clear that's exactly what happened to planet 4546B.

You're just another messenger of death.

And who knows if you curing the planet of the Kharaa bacterium is actually better for

the lifeforms that live there or not.

They'd been left alone for centuries, but now they'll be subjected to humanity's

often cruel intentions, and the resource-stripping effects of that might kill off everything

that did survive the disease.

That's the true dark story of Subnautica, a planet colonized twice over, that had everything

taken from it the first time, and will likely have the same thing happen again with your

escape.

But at least now we understand.

But that's just my analysis of Subnautica.

I told you there was more to it than just a pretty face.

What do you think?

Maybe by the 22nd century humanity had actually learned how to live in harmony with nature.

But judging by the amount of tech on the ship and our gutting of the planet for our own

personal survival needs, I kinda doubt it.

Either way you should still check out the game if you haven't it's really amazing

and beautiful.

That's all from me today, so click on a thingy on the screen and check out one of

our new shows, like this one or Real Truth!

Or subscribe or something and that way I can see you all next time.

Cuz I'll see you guys next time!

Was There a Universe Here Before Ours? The Big Bang vs the Big Bounce - Duration: 2:25.

Forget the Big Bang… we might have had the Big Bounce instead!

The Big Bounce hypothesis says that before the universe as we know it today had formed,

there was a universe here before us.

It disappeared before we arrived in something called the Big Crunch.

And from there it created such an immense amount of density and extreme temperatures

that it caused an inversion effect meaning it went from the big crunch right into expansion,

and formed the universe as we know it today--no point of singularity, no Big Bang required.

This is referred to as the bounce.

If our universe formed through a bounce instead of a Big Bang then maybe some of what exists

in the current universe today has already existed in a previous one!

The bounce hypothesis arose from our understanding of black holes.

It all started when physicist James Berdeen, in 1968, modified the equations about black

holes in Einstein's theory of General Relativity.

He stated that the mass of a black hole is not constant but instead a function based

off the distance to the center of the black hole.

This gave birth to the possibility of a new kind of black hole: named the "regular"

black hole which does not violate general relativity…

The idea has been around for decades.

So if there are black holes with no singularity then maybe there's no singularity for the

universe either!

This maybe can be the basis of the Universe Bounce hypothesis.

Many scientists, like physicist Juliano Cesar Silva Neves, believe that a black hole isn't

identified by its singularity but instead by its event horizon…. which is the area

around the black hole, where, once an object passes by it, it's doomed for a one way

ticket into the black hole.

He believes that spacetime acts totally differently at the event horizon than elsewhere in the

universe.

And there may be something there that can explain some of the questions that arise in

the bounce hypothesis.

He also believes in the possibility that some of the black holes in our universe existed

before the big crunch and transferred over to our current universe during the inversion

process.

Does that mean maybe we too existed in another universe before this one?!?!

Well, until more research is done this is just a mere mathematical possibility.

But it's still pretty amazing to think about… right?

To learn more about spacetime phenomena please subscribe to our channel!

And check out this video on black holes!

Starting in the 1940s scientists have constructed 3 potential outcomes of our universe: The

big crunch, the infinite expansion and the stagnation expansion.

What If England Never Had A Queen? - Duration: 5:22.

When most people think of England, they think of tea, cake, pints of ale, sausage rolls,

red telephone boxes and Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second.

England, and of course the rest of Britain, has a rich history, irrevocably tied up in

our long established monarchy…but what if this wasn't so.

Hello and welcome back to Life's Biggest Questions – I am Rebecca Felgate and today

I am asking, What if England Never Had a Monarchy?

Since beginning of civilization, pretty much all clans, tribes, groups…people…have

had some kind of class or hierarchy system.

Kings and Queens were not an English invention, but a social phenomenon across most developing

nations.

Emperors and Empresses, Sheik's, Pharaohs, Sultans, Tsars….whatever name you want to

give to a leader, there were always leaders.

First came regional rulers, then, the first king of all of England was Athelstan in 927.

The creation of a monarchy is tied up with another complicated force, religion.

Monarchs tended to believe they were the ruler of their people at the appointment of God,

making them a stronger force than just a human alone…a wise move for consolidating power

and making a leader seem untouchable.

A lot of the laws and customs were set and enforced by the rulers of the land, making

the monarch into a feared figure.

Without a monarch, perhaps in the days when Kings and Queens ruled by sole decree, people

would have felt freer, but society may have been more lawless.

I wonder whether this would have destroyed the class system.

Eventually, as average people became more intelligent, they realised that sole rulers

were sometimes bad idea and the need to regulate them came in the form of governments.

The first English government was formed after the mad King John abused his power.

If Monarchs were a necessary part of early development, the first chance to properly

get rid of it came from Oliver Cromwell, who briefly abolished the monarchy in 1649, although

a King was back on the throne 11 years later, again out of need for a divine leader.

This is the first historical point that I can see England being strong enough to continue

without a Monarchy, I feel up until that point a royal leader was inevitable, so rather than

never having a crown, lets pretend that England never had one from 1649.

Yes, things would be different.

For one, I am not convinced Britain's overseas colonial pursuits would have been as fruitful.

Colonies were obtained in the name of the crown, with a divine leader a lot easier to

fight wars and steal land for than a parliament.

Had countries never been colonised and their resources plundered, perhaps their economies

would be bigger today.

A lot of places in the world would have different names had there been no monarchy…for example

Virginia was named as such after the Virgin Queen Elizabeth, Georgia was named after King

George the second, Maryland was named after King Charles the first wife….Queenstown

New Zealand, pretty much all places called victoria across the world, including Victoria

Falls…so many places would have different names.

Of course the Commonwealth we know today wouldn't exist…but to be honest, perhaps neither

would America as we know it, seeing as the British crown has such an effect on the landmass

and people.

That being said, France dispensed of their monarchy and were still huge colonists, so

maybe much would have been the same… we just don't know.

It is no coincidence that the strength of the English and British monarchy has unravelled

at the same speed as the strength of religion, with the pair somewhat tied up in one another's

history.

The need for religion and the need for a monarchy were at their strongest points when people

were less enlightened, and needed to be told what to do and what to believe and who to

respect in order for society to work.

These days, almost every single person in England and the rest of the UK is capable

of reading and writing and thinking for themselves, which also means they can make informed decisions

about their own future and utilize their right to vote for and elect a leader.

Some say after Queen Elizabeth the second dies, a referendum will be held as to whether

we should abolish the monarchy…so England, and the rest of the UK and the commonwealth

may gain a flavour for the answer to this question in the future… who knows what great

historical figures will grace our money then!

There are of course great things that have come from the crown, the most important for

England perhaps is a sense of national pride.

Having a monarchy got us through hard times, such as the world wars and shaped the cultural

landscape we know today.

It gave us someone to drink to and to care about.

Kings and Queens were our earliest celebrities.

The crown is so tied up in our history, that separating history FROM it is neigh on impossible.

All we know is a monarch…and without one, it will truly be an end of an era on so so

many levels.

So, that was a difficult question to think about – as always with huge sweeping historical

questions impossible to solve in 5 minutes, I would love it if you could continue the

discussion in the comments section down below…let me know what you think the world would be

like if England never had a monarchy!

Republicans Strike Out AGAIN With FBI Texts Allegedly Implicating Obama In Coverup - Duration: 5:16.

On Wednesday of this week, Republicans thought for sure that they had the second slam dunk

bombshell against the FBI to finally put an end not only to the Mueller administration,

but to put an end to Barack Obama living as a free citizen and hopefully land him in prison.

That bombshell came in the form of text messages released that were between Lisa Page and Peter

Strzok, the two FBI agents who've been at the center of all of this, where one of the

text messages said that Obama wants to know everything that we're doing.

That simple little text message, taken way out of context by conservative media, retweeted

by Donald Trump and Donald Trump, Jr., was supposed to be the be-all-end-all of everything

involving this investigation, once and for all proving that the FBI was biased against

Donald Trump, so let's shut down the whole organization and pack it full of Trump cronies.

Well, hold up, because as it turns out, as often is the case, there was more to the story

than just that little snippet that Republicans chose to release.

As it turns out, they had been directed by James Comey to report to him, so that he could

report to Obama what was happening in the Russian election meddling investigation.

See, Republicans all day had been telling us that Obama wanted to know what was happening

with the Hillary Clinton investigation, but they completely ignored the timeline.

The Hillary Clinton investigation was officially ended by the FBI in July of 2016.

It picked up again at the end of July, or excuse me, September 2016.

These text messages were sent the first week of September 2016, after the investigation

ended and before it began again.

At that time, the only thing Obama was worried about was the Russian election meddling that,

as we know now, according to Homeland Security, 100% did happen.

This narrative, this bombshell that Republicans came out with, was debunked within hours.

Now, once again, just like with the Nunes memo, they look like absolute fools, but if

you think that's the only embarrassing bombshell Republicans had Wednesday, then you're not

paying close enough attention.

Late in the evening, it was revealed, via conservative news outlets, that the Uranium

One scandal had been blown wide open, because they had obtained emails showing that, in

exchange for access to Hillary Clinton, the Russians were going to donate four payments

of $750,000 to the Clinton Foundation, only, the Trump Justice Department had to come out

immediately after that and explain, no, that didn't ever happen, so the second bombshell,

this Uranium One scandal that conservative media loves to try to make a thing, was debunked

by Donald Trump's own Justice Department, led by Jeff Sessions.

They had to come out and say that, yeah, all the information we gave you about it contradicts

everything that you're trying to say that it says right now.

That never happened, you idiots, is basically the polite thing that the Justice Department's

trying to say.

They said it in a more polite way.

One day, two bombshells, two complete duds for the Republican Party that is getting so

desperate to taint Obama and Hillary Clinton and the FBI and everything else, that they're

literally willing to make shit up and just throw it at the wall and see what sticks.

I am no fan of Hillary Clinton.

I certainly am no fan of the Democratic Establishment, and I think we need to move on as a Democratic

Party and get new leaders, young leaders, true progressives in the party, but come on.

Making up crap about Hillary Clinton, just because you don't like her, or the same thing

with Barack Obama, that's not how we move forward as a Party.

I know there's plenty of Liberals out there, who are pushing the Uranium One conspiracy

theory and telling us that there was no Russian meddling or that these text messages are going

to take down the Establishment Democrats.

It's not going to happen.

Stop buying into the conspiracy theory nonsense and focus on what actually matters.

If you're focusing on Uranium One, if you're denying Russian election meddling, if you're

saying that the FBI in this deep state is trying to take down Donald Trump, then you

clearly have not been paying a bit of attention to American politics for the last 12 months.

CM Punk UFC RETURN REVEALED?! | WrestleTalk News Feb. 2018 - Duration: 4:22.

Hello and welcome to the WrestleTalk News - I'm Oli Davis.

John Cena, Multi-Talented Mega Celebrity John Cena isn't just a 16-time world heavyweight

champion and leader of the Cenation; he's also a successful movie star, a platinum recording

artist and, of course, the holder of a doctorate degree in Thuganomics from the University

of Cultural Appropriation.

And now Cena is adding another profession to his already stacked LinkedIn page: an author

of children's books: "Big dreams can be scary, but that's okay.

Never be afraid to put in the work...sometimes all it takes is a little #ElbowGrease.

So happy to bring this story with wonderful illustrations from Howard McWilliam.

Excited for you all to enjoy."

The book is promoted as being authored by "multi-talented mega celebrity John Cena"

and is about "a little monster truck [called Elbow Grease] with a big problem!

He's smaller than his four brothers, but wants to prove that he has the guts and the

grit to do big things."

Wrestling personalities have a remarkable track record when it comes to publishing.

Mick Foley's series of autobiographies are best sellers, Austin Aries wrote a guide to

being vegan, and AJ Lee's recent book Crazy is My Superpower is being adapted into a TV

show.

But for me, the greatest wrestling book of all time...is WWE Novel Big Apple Take Down

from 2006, where the superstars of World Wrestling Entertainment double as a covert black ops

group for the government.

I'm going to read a random bit of the book.

Shane McMahon DVD Cancelled!

But

while Cena announces children's books, poor old Shane McMahon can't even get one DVD

release - as his long-in-development Craziest Matches compilation has been cancelled yet

again.

Click the 'i' above my head or the link in the video description below for WrestleTalk.com

to tell you why this might be.

CM Punk UFC Return Revealed?

Last month marked the four year anniversary since CM Punk walked out of WWE because of

creative differences, personal differences, alleged medical misdiagnoses and the fact

that he came up with The Shield, dammit, and he still seems resolute in never wanting to

work for Vince McMahon or Triple H again.

Instead, he's still pursuing his mixed martial arts dream by competing in the UFC.

But following his 2 minute 14 second loss to Mickey Gall at UFC 203 in 2016, there were

rumors that Dana White wasn't interested in booking him again - despite Punk's multi-fight

contract.

That was until the promotion announced UFC 225 would take place in Punk's beloved home

city of Chicago, which Punk reposted with CURIOUS EYES EMOJI, PONDERING FACE EMOJI!

MMA Fighting are now reporting that "the UFC is currently discussing booking CM Punk

vs. Mike Jackson for the UFC 225 card on June 9 in Chicago", although these talks are

"in the early stages with no final decision made just yet."

Jackson was almost Punk's UFC debut opponent, losing to Mickel Gall in a fight for the right

to have Punk's first match back in 2016.

He's since called out Punk in the form of an 80s-style wrestling promo.

Jackson's loss to Gall is his only professional fight.
