I just watched the video. Not my favourite of yours (the Fermi Paradox is the best) but still a really good one.

Deep, simple and imersive. Wonderful!

The Templeton foundation has been criticized for supporting Christian-oriented research. I hope that Kurzgesagt does not loose the focus on science.

I really enjoy the philosophical parts of all your materials.

Why emphasizing eyes and visualization in brains? Other sensory inputs seem to be sufficient. Replacing eyes and see with corresponding sensors and acts in the video still, make perfect sense As simple as current artificial intelligent without eyes can perform planning too. Visualization is not needed.

Kurzgesagt clearly states that it is NOT reflecting the views of the Templeton foundation but rather the views of multiple scientists, books and other sources referred to by them.

Now I had to google, whether there is a Dugesia Tigrina plush.. because the funny face is too adorable. It reminds me of the giant plush microbes :D

It kinda reminded me of Spore. and that made me feel sad. but video itself was on that "just right" quality

Whoa! you really opened another dimension to users with sites.google.com! This is why it is worth patreoning you, because you make serious effort for your videos and sources. Thanks again for your videos

Awesome video on a topic I've been wondering about for a long time :) was also wondering if you're going to release any new wallpaper graphics to go alongside it? x

Lol your videos have some funny animation to highlight complex topics. I already support you guys but wish I could do more. I tell people about your videos and show kids some of your videos all the time. I love how education is very important to you and I very much appreciate the hard work you all put into these videos.

Hi. I'm reducing--but not eliminating--my donation because you've chosen to accept money from the right-wing Templeton Foundation. Accept it a second time and I'll end my donations forever.

sillypants

What's wrong with that? If an organization, whatever their beliefs, finds Kurzgesagt videos to be interesting and worth donation, what's the harm in accepting said donation? Unless you can demonstrate that they are influencing the content, what's the harm?

Consciousness is a complex subject indeed
