Being a citizen of the European Union means that many aspects of our lives are regulated by a weird entity. It feels like a huge bureaucracy is making decisions over our heads. How democratic is the EU really and does your vote actually affect anything?

Very interesting video! I dont want to be anoying but when is gonna be Patreon names at the end of a video? I’ve been a patreon who pay 5$ each month and I’ve not seen my name so far in the 5 last video after I join... explanations?

That's the biggest problem with the EU I think - it's just so complex and difficult for the average person to decipher. With national elections it's pretty easy to figure out. You vote - the people with most votes/seats are in charge. I have no idea what would be the best way to simplify things with the EU though.

They don't do names. At certain Patreon levels, you get a bird drawn for you...

I Love/Hate that you have the UK breaking away from the European council. Very topical :-) We really aren't handling Brexit at all well right now... *sigh*

Hello...Kurzgesagt....I am big fan of yours video, the way you represent everything..make me see the world in a whole new way... I had a idea long before..I don't know how good or bad it is.... The idea is ..what will happen to us if we are only able to remember for one day...then again on the next day everything will be new....how it will affect us...what will be society like .....what happens to the loved one....the question just goes like it....pls make a video about it....I m so so so curious...about it...

yeah yeah you forgot the part where lobbyists in practice buy votes.

For the second time in a month you have pushed out a perfectly timed, balanced and vital contribution to society’s understanding of a controversial topic. As a resident of the UK it’s fair to say we’ve done everything possible to sabotage a balanced and informed debate. I worry that it’s too late but you can never give up on something so important and therefore this video is a very welcome arrival that I intend to spread far and wide. Thank you!

I love you guys. Thanks for putting so much work and research into your videos and not trying to just get them out as fast as possible. I'm currently in the middle of binge watching every single video of yours. I recently just became a patron and I can't wait to see my own personal bird as well as other rewards! But most importantly I hope my money goes towards making more great videos that we all can enjoy!

I liked your videos. Can I ask about question that I have in mind? How do you find theme to made video about?

I've been watching Chernobyl on HBO. I was wondering if you could do a video about the effects of radiation on the body?

Hey kurzgesagt, love your vids so much that I can't get enough. You are one of my top youtube channels I like that has animation and the coulour is amazing! One suggestion I have for a video is about climate change, how deep and creepy the ocean can be and new science elements that are found or discovered. Hope this put your minds at thought, and good luck with the awesome work.
