Before I give maher much credit for wising up to how the world is now; he's going to have to do a LOT of apologizing for the work he put into making the world the way it is now. Still, it's a start.
Sweden, with the lowest vaccination rate didn't have these problems because it was the vaccine, not the virus that caused more problems.
Dave... you are wasting your time wt Bill...
Thanks for covering Bill Maher, he's actually center of the road, common sense from where im sitting, my not so humble opinion.
Tyson needs to stop repeating talking points in the academic bubble about topics he's not qualified to speak about as authority. He can have an opinion, but he needs to mark them better as such.
You're not going to get anywhere with Neil, because remember he's always right. He's too far left to be anything different
There's absolutely nothing humble about at least his public persona. He's very frustrating to watch because he doesn't seem open minded at all. He just talked about releasing a book where he basically gives his view on damn near everything. He has strayed far outside of his field of expertise.
@@jasondashney 100% agreed. Neil is intelligent, but he's ignorant at times and not open minded as you said. He really is annoying to listen to sometimes. Go watch him on Ben Shapiro's show...he literally would not acknowledge that there are only 2 genders. He's a clown.
He's a typical establishment intellectual with no soul. No roots so he just blows with the wind. And being a narcissist doesn't help either.
@@jasondashney I agree. He was reallying annoying to listen to on Joe Rogan. He is good at doing monologues. But a bad conversationalist because hes constantly talking over people and interrupting them and won't let other people speak without shouting out
70stunes7 Of course he is always right, simply because he is the voice of science and not of fiction tales.
And if population density is the variable to Tyson, then why did we in Texas have to conform to New York elevator protocols. He's full of BS and Maher's right.
He didn't really say that in this clip though. And He is right to a point. "We don't have the luxury of seeing parallel universes where the US did something different" is an irrelevant thing to say, but we also can't just say what worked in Sweden would've worked in the US BECAUSE of those cultural, geographic, and other demographic differences. If he advocated for a nationwide one-size-fits-all approach in the past, this clip does make him a hypocrite.
Vietnam has a higher population density did no vaccines but had lower hospitalization and mortality....
It's easier to fool someone than to convince them that they have been fooled. Especially people who think they are smarter than everyone else
brilliant very well said a one size fits all
Tyson is very egocentric. He isn't half as intelligent as he thinks.
Neil Degrasse is condescending everytime I see him.
Yeah, he’s sure no Carl Sagan, who he purports to replace.
Condescending and contradictory
Never liked him. Full of himself. Pompous.
I cannot stand to see that guys face or hear his voice.
@The Rotten💯 I loved and looked up to him like 15 years ago or so, but yep the more i watch and the more he says, progressively worse and worse. Good luck talking in all those 'absolutes' Neil lol
Neil is the type of guy who would wake up his family to tell them he is going to sleep
Nice copy paste
Neil is the type of guy who tells people to get vaccinated, then his son dies suddenly, so he says "he must have had an underlying condition"
@@kwyatt261 You seem to be the type of guy that will make anything up to justify your ignorance.
@@J1Jordy Oh ok
@@J1Jordy That hit post made no sense, and it shows your desperation to try
and discredit him without explaining an actual rebuttal to his comment. And, it's not because
you're ignorant, it's because you're stupid and gullible. It also proves you're an inadequate
person in need of love from the left because none of the cool kids or attractive members
of the opposite sex wanted anything to do with you in your youth.
Every time Neil opens his yap on tv or social media is becomes more clear where his funding originates.
He's clearly bought and paid for, has been for a long time.
Maybe he is paid or following the narrative, or both!
I want to point out that I used to be an active Star Talk listener and remember at the beginning of the chaos Niel stated "viruses are so small that they'll go THROUGH MASKS"
I brought this up to someone saying Neil is right about that and they said "really!? then Neil must've flip flopped bc he's now saying masks work." And well you see him now and what he spews out.
When I found this out I really lost interest in him. I really have a passion for astrology and Neil was my go to guy for space talk, and I picked up his book about the Universe condensed for your not so average Joe trying to understand our Cosmos. It was a great read and the podcast he ran was great pre 2020. Maybe it's still good now; I just haven't been near it since.
@@petebusch9069 Not that I don't doubt it but you pointed a finger, now receipt? This society has become nothing but finger pointing and that's all there is.
@@spitter7657 This is the problem we face today. Everyone wants "receipts" yet even if you had them you would dismiss them. This happens on both the right and the left, in large part, because we are arranging facts into narratives of our choosing. People are now dropping the need for facts and moving towards pumping out narrative because we learned through the pandemic that's all that matters. That's why censorship was so important. If enough people believe something to be true then it's accepted as truth (even if it isn't). I don't see facts changing anything anymore. Narrative and culture seem to be the only thing that matters now probably because our shared culture has been diluted to the point new ones are replacing them.
It’s disappointing because he was awesome when the political agenda wasn’t there
Neil is such a joke. He just goes along with the woke mob
He is a Freemason that pushes the narrative for the Elites
Tyson has always been a BUFOON ,,,,,
Paid schill
Sweden was not an outlier because of its population density...Tyson, the "scientist" conveniently forgets to mention the fact that it had massively better outcomes than ALL THE SCANDINAVIAN COUNTRIES. He's a fraud of the worst stripe.
The woke mob that demanded that he call himself a "Black" scientist? Because he shot that shit right down. " If I am known as a black scientist, I have failed as a scientist." NDT
Neil’s transition from scientist to political hack is complete.
He was never scientists, always hack. What he did to Pluto is inexcusable.
always was one
ALL RUclips Scientists: (Tyson, Dawkins, Krauss, etc…….) Will sound smart in their particular field. But will also believe that 2 planes took down 3 buildings. Oswald acted alone. And Vaccines are 100% safe and effective. They fall right in line when it comes to anything political.
All scientists are political hacks when they are receiving money for grants to do testing/studies from places that will manipulate the data to push an agenda. Some of the scientists know this and are complacent in it, and others are oblivious, but they are still political hacks just because of how they operate off of funded money. And this is by design. The elites want to control all information vectors to propagandize us into submission. The great reset is upon us.
He was a scientist?
So difficult to even listen to Neil D he's a legend in his own mind.
Neil deGrasse Tyson is to virology what Bill Nye the Science Guy is to education. Hell, I have the same mechanical engineering degree as Bill Nye. ... granted, processing information makes Neil deGrasse Tyson a pretty impressive individual but the sonofabitch sure as hell impressed with himself.
Neil has an overinflated sense of his intelligence. Most intellectuals suffer from this problem.
Most idiots suffer from this too.
Particularly celebrity intellectuals.
@@thetruthhurts4147 and then there is you.
@@thetruthhurts4147 ...but idiots are much easier to spot and call-out. Making a case that certin members of "the inteligencia" are charlatans is a whole different level. Nice try.
It's why they're despised. That, and the intellectual snobbery.
I'm an Uber driver out of Orlando. People from the blue states get off the airplane with their masks on, and when I take them to and from the various resorts, covid is still the topic of their conversation. They are still living in the dystopia of 2020 for the most part.
It's the most exciting thing that will happen to them in their lifetime: don't take that from them!
Fear and propaganda are the best tools in any government's Arsenal.
I live in Volusia county myself. Funnily enough, Fl had the same transmission & death rates as other states with similar populations, and we had 3/4 less restrictions & mandates.
@@wilfdarr Yep, totalitarian dictators who will never be heads of a state so this gave/give them a power trip, a slight grasp of power!
we call them COVIDIANS ... it has turned into a Cult for them
I like the way Bill Maher didn't back down when NDT implied that you couldn't question the COVID response because we didn't have a proper experimental "control".
He is sticking up for science, but he is mostly wrong (not 100% wrong) in this case.
Bigger science problem with his statement is that he knows that you can't experiment on humans with 'control groups'. It is unethical and he is exploiting that point.
@@Redmenace96 "Bigger science problem with his statement is that he knows that you can't experiment on humans with 'control groups'. It is unethical and he is exploiting that point."
But there was control group because some countries have different policies (including no lockdowns), country without vaccination, countries without governmental healthcare.
And the crazy things is, in some cases they performed better.
A real scientific should accept the evidences and investigate, even if that might lead to the conclusion that the pandemic response was misguided.
This is critical because we need to learn from our mistake before the next pandemic happen.
@3rksum Exactly, "the science" is not what the academy of sciences deems to be true but where the evidence leads you. Science is a process and a method of understanding and so the real science was what was getting hundreds of thousands of doctors and healthcare professionals banned and fired for going against the authoritarian cathedral. He is sticking up for dogmatism by heads of science organizations, not the scientific process.
he's wrong 100 percent of the time
Well, it's specious reasoning. Then again, he's a math nerd, not a philosopher or a comedian--he's made this abundantly clear--turning him into a celebrity was such a kiss of death. The guy is completely out of his depth and will go the way of Bill Nye: once a poor man's Carl Sagan turned into a warmed over turd.
Obviously being a qualified astrophysicist automatically makes Tyson an expert virologist.
He believes there is dark matter and dark energy, probably subscribes to the multiverse idea too. So to say he is qualified for anything is a stretch
@@rickcolumbo3148those are possibilities… don’t tarnish them by using his belief in them as something of weight.
As for dark matter, that to me is just a theory to explain what is yet to be explained.
@@jayjayx5x1 sure it's all possible but when your standard theory isn't adding up should scrutinize that theory or assume there is twice as much stuff out there but you don't know where and can't observe it. The multiverse is not scientific and again only exists to support theories that can't stand under their own weight. Neil's job is pr, he goes around convincing the public that all sorts of pointless scientific endeavors are interesting and really important so when the government grants them huge piles of cash to test the smell of brussel sprouts in near earth orbit no one complains.
Fun.I thought Tyson showed up Bill
Unlike Dr. Bill Maher, whose point was...wait, he didn't have one besides complaining.
When Bill Maher is a voice of reason, we are really in the end times.
You sure got that right... I can't believe how many times I have agreed with him since that demented circus monkey occupied the White House...
He says lots of reasonable stuff over the years, come on, man!
He used to be aswell, but then the orange man came along and broke his mind. As he did all pretentious "inttelectuals".
@Konstantin I feel Conservatives are still pretty dumb and asleep though. Do you really feel they "woken up"? It seems they still are holding on to this 1950s Leave it to Beaver utopia and have completely given up on actual policies.
Billy Red Shoes 👠
Having a different opinion isn't a problem. The problem is using political power to silence debate and that's exactly what these people are guilty of.
youre "just asking questions" arent you?
@@ShortFuseFighting oh yeah I'm not saying 9/11 was an inside job. I'm just asking raspy-voiced questions.
That part
This position seems to be one of the more reasonable ones in the comment section here.
Thank you for this.
100%
Florida handled it differently, Neil. Florida has the 3rd highest population of the 50 states. They came in the 3rd in cases and 3rd in deaths. Their mandate period lasted 2 months and then got basically back to normal. They didn't do any better or WORSE, by population than any other state in the union.
We HAVE the examples. People just HATE to hear about them.
Many people forget that Florida has a very high population of elderly people, so of course they came in 3rd for cases and deaths, but the Media won't mention that.
@@paanne1013 They also counted almost every death "Covid related". Flu probably killed most of them, that'd be my best guess.
I'll bet he said florida were doomed like every other msm shill did
not all people
Back to normal but still 3rd in deaths. What?
Wow, Bill actually pointed out that it was the handling of the pandemic and not the pandemic itself. That phrasing has been a pet peeve of mine for a long time.
Now they say it cause Trump is out they always tried to make him look bad Cuomo handles it worse
remember most of us was on this from day one. I knew instantly 2 weeks to flatten the curve would never end. And as of Jan 15 2023 it still hasnt. Joe Biden reupped the “emergency”.
Same. "The Pandemic" locked your doors and shut down your business. I didn't know the spike proteins had opposable thumbs
Same. That's why I say "lockdown" not during the "pandemic"
I don’t understand please elaborate
Every time I saw him on any show, especially scientific ones, I switched the channel. This guy is an activist!
As with ALL scientists, they get money from grants and donations. If their findings differ from the agenda, funding goes away. Whether it's covid, food, climate, gender, whatever. Just follow the money and you'll have a consensus even before any research is done.
@@Veni1229 Well said and true ,
I never understood how some medical doctors and scientists thought that you still had to get vaccine shots after you have recovered from a covid infection. After that, I lost all credibility with them.
A lot of them had their livelihoods threatened. The AMA is the last(?) legal guild in the country, and they have to play nice with the CDC and the NIH, both organizations with appear to be totally corrupt at this point. Not that I'm a fan of the AMA either.
It's really simple for me. I was literally getting out of the hospital saying exactly how long should I wait to get it? Why? What benefit will it have compared to natural immunity? For how long?
I got shaky borderline non answers to flat out "I don't know". So I had an antibody test at my next regular check up. It was good. And I've just prayed over my health. I have more assurance with Jesus than trying to get those questions answered.
Everybody doesn't have an agenda. Bill made a good point. Having an opinion about science isn't meant to be a political declaration. We're just trying to survive.
I was told by my Dr that once I got over it a shot would do me no good, that I had a better immunity than the shot would have given me. So I never got a followup. Still nervous, what with all the heart issues in my family's history.
Agreed. They lost credibility in spring 2020 when they acted like natural immunity is only mediated by antibodies. Pretended we don't make memory cells that endure much longer than most antibodies.
@@joshmccoy1522 You have a good doctor. Stick with him.
Because you got actual Covid, you now have what is called active immunity. Shots are considered passive immunity. Active immunity is much more protective than passive immunity. Like your doctor said, no need for the shot. Meanwhile, as always, just keep yourself healthy.
You're right Neil, we don't know how other things might have worked. That's why we should have been allowed to talk about it and have a discussion instead of have opinions against the government policy be suppressed
Weird conservatives knew exactly how this was going to turn out with lockdowns. Oh and we knew who created the bio weapon and why they released it too right at the start
BINGO❗️💥
That's wrong though. We already ran this experiment when the Spanish flu came through a century ago. They already determined that no amount of containment or masks would stop the spread. We tried it again and the result was the same. No containment or masks stopped the spread.
Yes, and given the option to opt out as sovereign individuals... since he is admitting that the authorities really didn't know what course of action would yield the best outcome.
Me too. In New Zealand, I was in the fortunate position where my income was not dependant on an employer who was subject to to draconian Gov mandates. But I had friends who lost jobs and suffered serious financial damage.
Neil deGrasse Tyson, as always, when he knows he's wrong, starts yelling and drawing pictures in the air with his hands lol
I've noticed that too!!!
You mean when he's right.. He has to make a pop-up book for people like you who can't comprehend what he is saying
@@GMZohar14quit dickriding
That is something I never understood. It's racist to say the Chinese Communist let it escape from one of their labs. But it's not racist to say Chinese people got it from eating unsanitary flying rats.
Sorry, have to make a minor correction, but words do matter LoL..." *released it* from one of their labs". I would also give odds that they didn't release it strictly of their own accord.
can`t beat a bit of deep fried pangolin , just as long as you fry it within 200 yards of a lab full of experimental virus`s aiming for "gain of function" .............it all adds to the flavour don`t ya know
Thats because the people claiming racism are communist sympathizers. Absolutely everything in the media about China is manipulated by the CCP, either directly or through the WuMao army. They have whole bureaucracies that just go through social media looking for posts that reveal any of the CCPs negative actions and file false complaints, downvoting, and flagging comments. There is so much evil sht that goes on in China that most people in the west are totally clueless about. Especially the woke mob who think white man and facts equal rasism, and are particularly clueless about the levels of real racism in non-western cultures.
This is how twisted the CCP is, they hate and look down on Chinese culture and think socialism is superior and now want to encourage the rest of the world to think the same way.
Remember that Anthony "The Science" Fauci arranged for the U.S. taxpayers to subsidize "gain of function"
I.E. weaponization research on coronavirus at the Wuhan lab in China. The U.S. government, big tech, and
big media censored reports of that.
At least Bill Maher will have a conversation, which most wouldn't do.
You know what’s hilarious? My friends/family and I were discussing and debating these issues 2-3 years ago, and it’s taken these assholes that long to even think about it.
same. or, at least i was debating and discussign these issues with them idk if they did on their own...
A lot of people thought about it. Too many were censored, just like in China or the old Soviet Union. Many "free" nations were only heard one side of the story that the bought and paid for politicians allowed out on the propaganda services. Science fell by the wayside.
Nothing worse than seeing everyone else show up to the party in slow motion. At least your family is. My family went woke and disappeared into the consensus psychosis with the NPCs.
Neil got a taste of his own medicine and tried to use laughing at it as a defense.
I live in semirural Sweden. I'm neither vaxxed nor boosted and I've never worn a mask a day in my life. I didn't alter any behaviour really. Know plenty of people who've had covid, none of them died. The thing covid really affected in my life was that it was the only thing people could talk about for a good while. And it still crops up from time to time. Based Sweden, I guess? Not something I'd usually call it.
Not really posting this to gloat or anything, but when I hear about the covid hysteria coming from places like the US, I feel like we've been living on different planets these last few years. I have no sympathies for the policymakers who pushed the lockdowns and stuff, but I do feel sympathy for the everyday neurotics who really believed that this was gonna wipe us out if 'Everyone' didn't fall in line. And when Sweden didn't fall in line, they just pretended like we didn't exist or something. Guess they just assumed we'd all died?
How do you explain the spike in death rates in Italy or New York in 2020? Clearly the virus was lethal when it affected large numbers of people in densely populated areas. I agree there was a hysteria that took over in certain governments, Australias reaction was ridiculous. By the way the US was not locked down in any shape or form. I lived in a major city in the US from 2016-2022 and by late 2020 you could pretty much do 95% of normal activities again if you wanted.
I can’t believe Bill was actually able to shut NDT up for even a second. Nobody loves to hear Neil Degrasse Tyson talk more than Neil DeGrasse Tyson.
Tyson talked his way out of a couple of sexual harassment lawsuits not so long ago.
Why do these morons freak out emotionally every time they get called out by someone smarter? That's their only tactic to protect their insane beliefs, freak out so people don't ever question them
@Robert Le Tyson also spouts off as if he's an expert on EVERY subject. He's an astrophysicist and is an expert on THAT only.
@Robert Le Carl Sagan could enlighten us without being condescending; Tyson isn't in Sagan's league.
I love how population density is applied to Sweden, as if people are evenly distributed over the country, instead of clustered in dense cities like stockholm and malmo.
@Michael Felicis this is a non sequitur if there ever was one. A 'gun pandemic' may be many things, but it isn't a literal air-borne virus mass infecting populations.
He should look at Africa, or better yet, Vietnam.
Neil's "argument" is instantly destroyed.
@michaelfelicis5717 there are tons of places in the USA with strict 2A infringements and gun crime is out of control.
@Michael Felicis the thing about "gun control" in the US, is, that you can't point to another country. You can't control the guns being used illegally, which accounts for 96% of homicides. Along with trying to ban a rifle that is used in less than 3% of homicides. It makes no sense. Sweden, has citizens who take their machine guns home when in the military. So, lets point to Sweden again. They don't have nearly the laws we do, and they have machine guns.
It's about mental illness, not the guns. Glorifying guns in Hollywood, etc. A well known fact conservatives point to, but are ignored.
@@personnesenki4521 are you a bot with primitive input? Where am I talking about guns?
Degrasse constantly goes to the “I’m louder therefore I’m correct” tactic in every interview he’s ever given. Smack him down a few notches Bill.
Bill constantly goes the "This is my show so I can repeatedly, obnoxiously interrupt and talk over whomever I please as often as I please and also just move on to the next subject whenever my largely untested opinions start to feel uncomfortably tested by people smarter than me" route. Generally the mark of an insecure intellect...
@@joelmccallum-st8yb I couldn’t agree more, this was a true showdown of egos. Two megalomaniacs head to head lol.
I've only seen him do it recently, but numerous times.
He's right it was how we handled it, but he's also not mentioning that anyone who dared point out that it may not be the right way were either silenced or deemed all but evil.
So im so happy that hindsight is 20/20 for him. He's old enough to know better.
Agreed 100%. Folks like him shouted down anyone who dared have a different opinion than the government narrative. He’s part of the problem.
@@hamilton7012 And see i'll even say this, there was some reason to think yeah maybe its a good idea to do X for short period of time but when things dont improve one has to look and see if there are ways that may work better to find a solution to the problem.
And this isn't a left or right, american or european thing. This is more of a people asking questions about how it seems that the actions arent doing a positive change , being deemed the enemy. Well that sets off alarm bells.
Hell i didn't often agree with the rational that was presented by people who perhaps were opposed to the actions taken. Yet i was in favor of them speaking because perhaps there would be a germ of an idea that could be expanded upon to create a healthier and more positive solution.Yet when they are shouted down,shamed, defamed,attacked etc.Well i see that as a rather large problem.
(Apologies for rambling and potential repetition)
@@hamilton7012 An addendum to what i was saying.The arrogance after the fact while being the same person they take issue with now,at the time speaks volumes.
And i say this as someone who's a fan of his comedy over the years, was a big fan of his during his politically incorrect show runtime, i was a fan of his when he pissed off the american government in 01. However the dishonesty does make him come off like he's running for an election.
@@hamilton7012 His idea boils down to '' im holding your head under water but all you need to do is breathe cause thats the solution to not being able to breath but if you fight back against me holding your head under the water then you're the problem''
Damned if you did damned if you dont but some people wanted to atleast have the ability to breathe.(This isn't some commentary on masks before it gets taken as that)
maybe he didnt point it out in this specific debate but he has pointed it out. you're not going to get everything in a single 2 minute clip.
What Neil DeGrasse Tyson is talking about is called the "counterfactual" in economics, and as far as liberal policies go, the ALWAYS ignore counterfactuals by focusing only on the benefits (and never the costs) of their policies.
Best example is gun control. They always ask, "how many deaths will it prevent" and not "how much crime, property theft, and violence will people not be able to deter or prevent anymore once those guns have been removed"
Also true with "green technology" production. Never a discussion about the downsides.
Neil DeGrasse Tyson pretends to be the smartest guy in the room, he's not. He does not know the population densities of Sweden's three largest cities. Stockholm - 1,617,407 (2020)-Gothenburg - 607,882 (2020)- Malmö - 325,069 (2020). The City of Philadelphia's population is 1,603,797. Want to guess what happened in Philly? Let alone the rest of PA under Gov. Wolf?
@@kjisnot it's all about implementation.. capitalists and corporations have a tendency to stifle innovation in exchange for planned obsolescence, in order to maximize profits
Let's not forget the right-wing nuts calling social security an entitlement that needs to be dumped even though it's your money that you paid in.
@@danmadrid8227 That;s not “Capitalism”, that’s Feudalists abusing a partially Capitalistic system.
Actually the population density of Sweden (64 people per miles squared) is HIGHER than many U.S. states (19 states to be exact). Some of those states are Arizona, Mississippi, Colorado, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Iowa, Oregon, and 12 other states! So, you CAN compare what would happen by looking at each of those states compared to Sweden!
dgt has a constitutional inability to pause and consider nuance. He prefers to wave his hands around and shout - in that scientific way of his.
Correct. I was thinking about the actual size of these countries. Like saying Rhode Island has less people therefore you can’t compare to the rest of the country
What???? Facts and logic???? This is 2023! Facts and logic have NO PLACE in "science" anymore! You can no longer use facts and logic in your argument! It's all about "feelings" now. Get yourself a few new pronouns and GET WITH THE PROGRAM!!!
Good research comparison thank you!
@@credenza1 Leftists think nuance means "a magic word that counters my opponents' fact-based arguments." He thinks he WAS being nuanced by just mentioning population density even though he doesn't dig into what that data actually says.
Literally, that is the longest I've ever seen anyone talk without being interrupted by Neil Tyson
Never forget they masked kids when kids were not even at risk
Their push against kids started two weeks after we had good, hard scientific evidence from the US and 17 of our allies that proved kids were practically immune. That should have clued everyone into their BS but they gobbled it up even though it went against the science. It takes truly evil people to prey on children
Even the makers of the tests say only to used for research purposes and not to be used as a diagnostic test
De Grasse is a piece of work, don't know why anyone has him on their show.
100%. he's not smart at all, he seems kind of over the top.
"Appeal to authority" is why they have him on their shows. "Oh, he's a doctor. He is to be trusted because he is a doctor. So I believe what he, as a person of authority, has to say regardless of how idiotic it may be."
@@BLUELEADER78 That's exactly what I was just saying above. Liberals believe in the power of those in "authority" and will always defer to them. Conservatives believe individuals are more capable of self preservation with their own choices. I feel like I'm much more of an "expert" concerning me than some "scientist" who's working for the government. If he's really a true scientist he would know that it is an absolute scientific impossibility for a piece of cloth to stop MICROSCOPIC bacteria and that the "six feet apart" markers on the floor at Wal Mart do literally and absolutely nothing. The actual reality is that all the "guidelines" were literally nothing more than a wannabe one size fits all rabbit's foot for the masses. They actually accomplished nothing but got credit for PERCEIVED accomplishments.
For the comic relief his bloated ego provides.😂
Some still cling to the fantasy that we did it the exact perfect way and it should not be questioned. We know much more about our neighbors, friends, and even family. There are control freaks, bullies, and closeted tyrants among us.
Good observation. In my own circle I was surprised to see the way some people leapt at the lockdowns and rules., as if they had suddenly found a meaningful cause. It seemed to be people who yearned for some sort of communal validation and alignment with power.

It took Bill Maher 2 years to realize that playing stupid games resulted in winning stupid prizes.
It's taking his fellow dems, much much longer. Maher is 100 miles ahead of the rest of the left, let that sink in.
Yep,because Maher was part(well still is, but less)of the Woke Mob/Biased Media and Fauci who destroyed kids lives,Businesses,etc all in the name of Government Control and many people went along with it, because they're Sheep/Followers or what i like to call them-SHEEPLE!THG for leaders like Desantis and even Trump.
No, I remember back in 2020 Bill Maher was making the case that we should scrap the lockdowns and get back to normal and let people make their own choices based on their personal risk appetite and risk profile.
no it didnt. he was the first person on the left to come out against the covid policies within the first 6 months in 2020.

Bill's following has fluctuated. His "politically incorrect" had a lot of people from every side watching. As long as he sticks to the lowest-hanging fruit, and doesn't ignore the obvious, he should have broad appeal.

@@dkillips hey there, colleague!!
@@djm4457 then why has he been proven wrong about every single thing he did?
Back in April 2020, anyone with any sense knew all of these things would happen if we handled COVID they way they suggested (which we did). Sad part is, not many people think for themselves these days.
Totally agree - I'm stunned that people are talking about the "fallout" as if it was unexpected.
I was on a road trip when 2 weeks to stop the spread started. It was fairly clear that 2 weeks was insignificant, and all the necessary things to actually maintain a society for a lockdown can't just be thrown together last minute like that. "Lockdown" but not essential workers, which in this case, meant large parts of the retail sector and continued travel throughout the country to support it. And with so many people necessary, the lockdown was meaningless and just continued to spread.
I've wondered if a planned lockdown, say an entire month like June, would have done something significant. Just have the govt plan and prepare months ahead of time a planned lockdown of June and limit everything including shopping, and instead of random checks from the govt, the govt would foot the bill on most debt payments, etc for that month. Stock up on food and supplies slowly and prepare for an actual lockdown but one that doesn't force businesses to shut down, kids to stop school, and all the other horrible crap.
But even then, a few sick people and Covid just starts up all over again.
"continuing close contact"
is the best way to catch/transmit any the large family of 'rona virii
the lock down did exactly what it was known would do
@@Andrew-qu7lq no, a lockdown would never work for an entire nation, let alone the whole world. The only chance at all to "stop the spread" is before it reaches a pandemic. Which would have meant months prior- clear back in Wuhan. After months of travel and spread, it was far too late to "stop the spread".
And why a month for your hypothetical lockdown scenario? You think the viruses and bacteria are all going to die off in a month? They won't find some other vector to live on- cats, dogs, sheep, cows or whatever? So the second we all come back out after our month of lockdown, we all immediately get sick. And even worse, we no longer have natural immunity to anything else- so we have all kinds of diseases more severe than they were before. This is exactly what we have done now- which is why we suddenly have the "worst flu", "worst RSV", on and on.
And where are we all getting a months worth of food? If we all went to buy a months worth of food tomorrow, there wouldn't be enough for everyone. Just like the toilet paper scenario. And there is no such thing as an "essential worker". We are all essential. It's an entire chain that keeps things moving- even if you don't feel like it's essential. It is. People talk like all we need is farmers to continue working. Where are they getting gas? Where are they getting fertilizer? When their equipment breaks, where are they taking it? Need new tires, can't get them because they Bridgestone factory has been shutdown. And they can even get the raw products to make them anyways, because it hasn't come in on the ship from overseas. And when all of these transactions take place, who's making the paper to send invoices? Who's printing the envelopes? Don't use paper, well who's doing all of this on a computer? When the server breaks, which IT person is going to come fix it? IT guy has a toothache, does he just deal with it? Get the drift?
This was all nonsense. We cannot just lock ourselves up. We are all too reliant on one another. Because we are a society. Unless you want to go back to living like a caveman, and stop all forms of travel, then sure. It would work. Just like the smallpox situation with the native Americans.
@@ivankrushensky I agree with essentially everything you're saying, I'm saying I had thought about this then as the hypothetical. What we ended up with was a "lockdown" except for essential workers, and as you pointed out, the list of people who are essential to maintaining a society is so large that what we had wasn't actually a lockdown, it was random forced business closures, kicking all kids out of schools, and just tossing this thing out there with no real end game or purpose.
So the hypothetical one month that I was saying was because the first strain had a delayed exposure to symptom time of about 1-2 weeks, though it would be spreading within a couple days. So it was spreading days before you knew you were sick. The 1 month is to counteract the fact that anybody before the onset of a "lockdown" would still need significant time to even know if they are sick, plus potentially get over any illness. But also, rather than keeping society moving, only the absolute essentials, like public utilities / internet providers and basically a police force, and medical staff would even be allowed. But even doing a real "lockdown" would also involve quarantine for all of those individuals as best as possible.
And like you said, you can't just go out and buy a month's food tomorrow, which people were doing when this all started and caused massive supply chain problems. This hypothetical lockdown would need months of planning and preparation before it even started. Stock up on foods that won't spoil, and treat it like a massive blizzard.
But if a few still are sick, and it spreads again (or from any other country of course), then it's all meaningless in the end.
My point is that to REALLY lock things down, as if this were a cataclysmic event, would require so much planning, preparation, and actual iron fisted enforcement to even ACTUALLY have a chance of working. What we did was a half-assed approach that harmed children, small businesses, mental health, and countless other problems, with no real benefit of actual effect.
I’m a therapist in a nursing home. During the pandemic, we did not have one death due to Covid….and these are elderly, frail, and often ill patients. What we did see was isolation with increased rates of depression and confusion. Patients cut off from all contact with their peers and family members. Senseless and very sad to watch.
Covid ripped through the old age and nursing homes here in Australia though
Maybe not so many casualties because of those restrictions I'm guessing. Covid did major damage in enough nursing homes.

I love Bill Maher, he speaks common sense in a world full of ignorance.
Neil is the perfect example of how someone can be really smart and really stupid at the same time.
I don't think he is very smart neither. Look at his CV, he never got a researcher success by himself. He was just taken to certain positions and now he appears to be "the new Carl Sagan" that, emphatically, he is not. Don't let the propaganda be the truth.

Because there are different strains of the virus as in you can get sick again, even though you recovered. With the flu it mutates every year and evades the human immune system because of it. The Covid virus does the same thing that's why there's different vaccines for different strains of the virus that have mutated.
@@A710 That's basically true. But don't miss the forest for the trees.
The more quickly a virus mutates, the less dangerous it typically is (examples: colds, the flu, covid). The slower a virus mutates, the more dangerous it is (examples: rabies, ebola, meningitis).
That's why the vaccines for the less dangerous viruses don't work as well, but the vaccines for the really dangerous viruses are either good for life (or a very long time) without boosters or repeated shots.
Great points! *_People get impatient and want it all solved instantly!_* Life rarely works that way. People don't leave insane beliefs like they change their underpants. Sometimes it takes repetitive events of others questioning those beliefs. The fact that some people clapped for Tyson, while others clapped for Maher, is a good thing. Shaking things up. *_Returning to humility._*
Agreed. Just allowing people with different viewpoints to express their views without censorship is a step forward. Neil deGrasse Tyson tried to use his own form of censorship with ridiculing and being loud and overbearing, but it didn't work. Clear minded people could see that there are multiple considerations that need an airing.
And what does an Astronomer know about viruses or diseases? He’s not even a good Astronomer.
All these scientists have to agree with the rules of the game and think alike. Anyone just as we’ve seen in the last few years disagrees or has a different opinion is shouted down, canceled and personally attacked and ostracized. Those are not the actions of sound logical minds.
If it weren’t for private or charter schools be it from elementary to university we’d have no conservative educators.

He wasn't confronted by any relevant facts. "Bad things happened because of lockdowns" (which any rational person could've/would've told you would happen before they were implemented) is not an argument for "it would've been better without mandates/lockdowns" when you have no relevant evidence for that, and there are too many variables to use other countries as evidence that their methods would've worked here. I'm not even saying/arguing lockdowns were definitely better, I'm just with Neil in arguing we really don't know and couldn't know without rewinding time and doing things differently. Plus, you can't judge rational decisions when you have limited information (like early in the pandemic) by the outcomes of those decisions.
Watching a "renowned" scientist absolutely melt down when confronted by basic facts tells us all we need to know about that scientist (as if we didn't already know).
He wants to remain an establishment scientist, same as Fauci. If he wants to retain that position he needs to conform to the narrative.

@@beerman204 It's not even close to that.
@@beerman204 not to covid, to lack of treatment and co-morbidities ... they should have listened to Trump when he wanted to shut down travel from China. Blood is on the lefts hands.
@@beerman204 I am saying what we did to try to mitigate the spread did nothing but ruin our economy.
It's important that people do not forget the lies that were told to us during the last few years, and the political manipulation that occurred. I'm afraid that many will just move on, and there will be that sort of collective amnesia and distraction that keeps people voting and thinking the same way and not learning anything from the consequences of staying within those same patterns.
More accurate to expand to the last few Administrations! That seems to be Politics 101 in this era of governing.
This is exactly what the establishment wants to happen, and it most likely will happen. Just wait till 2025 and see what they have geared up for us, it'll make covid seem like nothing.
@@MrKevin486 Why 2025?
@Dodie Odie Look up Bill Gates latest talk to the WEF. There will be another pandemic in 2025, starting in Brazil this time, that will result in hundreds of millions dead, millions being children. They are calling it SEERS. Amazing how they know all this huh? Almost like it's planned.
@@dodieodie498 donald trump will be back
Neil gets schooled. Love it! Sorry Neil you should be the leading voice of objectivity. Nice job Maher
Living in Sweden, I am so thankful about our measured response. The only place I was ever forced to wear a mask was at the hospital, which made perfect sense to me since it would lessen any of the spread I could cause by droplets and such.
Sadly we're now being completely raked over the coals economically due to supply chain issues, Russian gas, worldwide inflation, an electricity crisis brought about by EU regulations (we have no lack of electricity, but we're being forced to export power which drives our own prices up by a factor of 8 to 10).
I never understood that: Exporting something (anything) at the expense of one's own citizens.. How asinine is that. Why is it at the behest of neighboring countries to all suffer because of it?
Globalism doesn't want a multipolar world order. That's simply why we'll always be forced into world wars: hegemony.
the propaganda is sweden's death toll has been 'horrifying' because of the measured response
Sorry about that. Well there's a lot of downsides to a centralized one-size-for-all governance. They disregard the plight of individual countries to advance their bureaucratic impulses. I suspect that European crisis is planned and deliberate to usher in a savior complex to further consolidate power. It's coming for us in The States too and everywhere.
Except Sweden lost about five or six times as many people as its neighbours. It's pandemic response was a disaster.
@@ShnNar1000x That's not factual. Looked up a study and some stats just to check, and it was 19k compared to 6,7 and 5,3 for Denmark and Finland respectively
Norway had a much lower mortality reported (3,8k), but they're half of Sweden's population spred over roughly the same amount of land, plus they have a 95% coverage of personal medical practitioners compared to almost single digits in Sweden.
Also I am a bit skeptical over what constitutes "died with Corona in the body" and "died by Corona", a stat that has been fudged to a small or large extent in every single country.
Another factor is that Sweden had a massive influx of elderly immigrants compared to Norway's near zero in the years before Corona, plus lower mortality rate among the elderly prior to the Covid years, which is my personal layman's guess as to why we lost a hypothetical 9k more people than the statistics suggest we should have.
You gotta love Bill Maher for bringing facts to his audience. You know they won't hear anything like that on the View, or the network news.
Only to a certain extent. Bill Maher ADVOCATED for all of the lunacy surrounding COVID restrictions.
Aaaand all the real facts being erased
And even if they’re not necessarily “facts” his willingness to question mainstream narratives and ideas makes him one of the best late night show hosts currently.
Even his audience or guests tends to be more open-minded and politically/ideologically diverse than most others.
@@sunshizzleyou Open minded guests aren't allowed into these 'talk' shows. The script has been written and everyone in the audience is on the same page.
@@gwhizz3470 - very true for shows like Jimmy Kimmel Live, The late show with Stephen Colbert, Daily Show with Trevor Noah, Late Night with Seth Meyers.
They’re ALL the same and is just passive aggressive, partisan hack entertainment for 30-65 year-olds who all think the same.
The overreaction was almost unbelievable. It's like you couldn't simply say that the pandemic was not good. You HAD TO hold the view that it was world war z, and everything and everyone had to pause life and focus on this one issue. This is for a disease with over a 99% survival rate. It was genuine madness.
Somehow we still had 20% of the deaths
The elitists that run the world were emboldened by the fact they own the media and fund most of science grants, and politicians, that sets the narratives - such as a lone gunman killing JFK, 9/11 as a foreign terrorist attack wherein Building 7 collapsed next to the towers without being hit and no plane wreckage or security cam video outside the Pentagon. This virus was developed on purpose, and paid for by funding fauci funneled. The depth of the evil, planned by a few, is hard to grasp - but is staring us in the face.
@@tesladrew2608 bullshit.
@@tesladrew2608 Because the U.S. has a HUGE percentage of overweight and obese people because they shove anything into their mouths that advertisers suggest. It's a shocking lack of self-control and self-respect.
@@tesladrew2608No there was not a 20% increase in deaths! Where TF do you get that number? People die. If my grandmother didn't die of heart failure, she would have died of something else weeks or maybe months later because she was old! If she had been alive during Covid that would have killed her, but it wouldn't have significantly shortened her life span!
Five years ago if you had told me that I would agree with Bill Maher and he would be a voice of reason I would have laughed in your face, yet here I am watching and agreeing him.
Never thought I'd say this but WAY TO GO BILL!
Neil deGrasse Tyson is the scientist for people who don’t know anything about science. He’s like the McDonald’s of scientists
He's actually quite typical of the egotistical assholes that you'd meet if you attended grad school in any STEM field. I went to one, and it was filled with Neils.
Another act or in the Washington Theatre on that good ol World Stage.
His boated ego gets in the way of any science.
Knowledge and wisdom rarely go hand in hand. Tyson has a lot of knowledge and smarts. He lacks the wisdom, just like so many others at the very pinnacle of their profession, to see the limits of his knowledge. He's physicist. A darn good one at that. What he can transfer from physics to other disciplines is limited and because of his deep specialization, he will always view EVERYTHING as a physics problem. The issue is that the underlying paradigms in psychology, sociology or biology are vastly different to those in physics. In Germany we have a saying, "Schuster bleib bei deinen Leisten", which roughly translates to "cobbler stick to your last". It means
Tl;dr: stick to what you know, Neil deGrase Tyson! Same goes for every other expert thinking they can comment on everything.
@@Keiranful Good, entertaining comment! Though I would argue that logic is transferable across any discipline. Just because someone doesn't have a piece of paper that says they are the "expert" in a given field, doesn't mean their argument is instantly invalid. Case in point, Tyson's downfall is not that he's speaking about things outside of his field, it's because he committed multiple logical fallacies in the face of overwhelming evidence. I honestly don't think he deserves his reputation, as he is not a good scientist.
I don't consider Neil a professional scientist anymore, I am also taking everything he has said in the past with a grain of salt. Sorry Neil you don't need to be cancelled on social media for the masses to cancel you. Goodbye Neil 👋
What exactly is NDT a expert in, what field? I'm willing to bet that it's not medicine!
when was the last time he submitted a paper to a professional journal of his peers?, has he ever had a paper published in his field ?
@@rogerjensen5277 he is an astro physicists, but that is irrelevant as the mainstream has framed him as an intelligent figure head. I mean people believe Hollywood stars over real professionals. It's a major psyop. In the grand scheme of things. You believe and trust someone for so many years you brain automatically agrees with them, it's the same process as creating a yes set or pacing and leading to persuade someone.
I am not saying Neil has bad intentions as he might truly believe this stuff. If so this also proves how well manipulation works and it doesn't matter how smart or wise you are.
Bill and Neil's roll is to pump bull shit into idiot's heads.
Stay tuned 😉
NDT became a Cuck for the left along time ago....now it is just becoming easier for other people to see.
