yay
why do i always find myself hitting the like button for videos that REALLY BUM ME OUT.
😔😔😔
Can u stop trying to be funny in your videos
You are my favorite
Theres no way Prager-U actually did that!?!?! I actually liked them
This is so hard to watch
Harriet A. Washington wrote a book about this called Medical Apartheid.
i love that i can taste the distain Cody has while doing ads
According to some TED Talk I saw years ago, people living in poverty tend not to think very far ahead. Not just because of sleep deprivation and malnutrition, but as a survival tactic, your brain doesn't expend resources when the future is extremely uncertain. You'd think the opposite would be true. You'd think people living in extreme luxury, with access to consultants would be able to plan very far ahead. And yet even if we accept that all rich people are emotionless sociopaths, just from a pragmatic perspective, the CEOs of these companies consistently make these nonsensical, short-sighted decisions. "If the people all die, you'll be king of nothing" the old gotcha statement goes. So what are we missing here? The only conclusion I can reach is that because wealth didn't bring them happiness, they have a death wish. And like... that's fine, but why do you have to take the rest of us out with you?
Bill and Melinda Gates and their "foundation" are basically war profiteers at this point. And manipulating the vaccine patent like that for an actively mutating virus during a deadly global pandemic should be considered a crime against humanity.
You should have lead the whole video with the last couple of minutes. It is worded very well.
sorry it's $600.00 per ? (week or month) here (Canada) it's $2000.00 Can$ per month
Not interested by any vaccine for covid, fook yu.
lol codi, biontech/pfizer sells to israel at doule the price the us pays, and europe hat to bargain with them because elsewise europe would pay the same...
If humanity ends up wiping itself out, we deserve it.
I want a "Cutie with working empathy goo" t-shirt!!
Friendly reminder that black and brown people have very good reason to be suspicious of white colonialist created vaccines (cough, HeLa, cough)
I am going to have to watch at the least 10 videos of people saving baby animals to feel better after this...
Thank you

Short AstraZeneca out of existence gang gang?
money talks and walks the world. slavery were not inventet by whitie still exist in china africa and the middle east wonder why we dont see it in eu hmm maybe because its iligal (still legal in the us of a you just have to do it to people who is not legal american residents and btw congrats of the reopening and legalisation of childcages for iligal imigrants biden really likes them it seems)
You are my hero. I'm not exaggerating; I think that what you are doing - subjecting yourself to the dark side of the world in order to shine a light on terrible things - is almost quite literally taking a bullet for the rest of us. I hope you are doing well and that your mental coping mechanism are up to the task, and thank you for your passion!
CRINGE 😆
It's a joke 😅
Elaborate please, what part of this is so “cringe”?
Ok this gates foundation and Oxford thing. I’ve been informed it’s more nuanced.
This goes hand in hand with the John Oliver meat packing episode I literally just watched...sad AF...
To be totally capitalist, not open sourcing the vaccine will cost million of jobs. Rich people are supposed to be "job Creators," but rich people end up just killing job after job. Why is there not a surplus of job with how much money the USA has thrown at all the rich people. (6 Trillion in March of 2020)
You know there's a Nazi out there watching this, somewhere. "Butthole calipers! Why didn't I think of that? Genius!!!"
Thank you, my dude!
It's easy to see the metaphor in Icke's "Reptilians" when seen through this lens. Lack of empathy, sociopathy, comes from the Reptilian part of the Human brain. It's associated with no empathy/ritual. Ritual. Keep that in mind. See Kubrick filmography from start to finish, hmm, throw Prometheus by Ridley Scott in there.
Well the issue with Icke is that he actually thinks that they are real lizard people, but we can pretend it’s metaphorical
Cody you’re starting to sound like you think progress is the plan. I’m worried about you
Big pharma wants new strains. Can sell more new vaccines that way.
i give zero fucks about raycon headphones but i'll buy them, simply because they think supporting you is a good idea.
Gracias por existir Cody & team
You knock it out of the park EVERY TIME, big homie! Great job, as always. Bless up!
Another 3 points on the 1 million AstraZeneca vaccines that came to South Africa: 1) They would have expired before we could have used most of it. 2) Preliminary tests show minimal efficacy against the new SA variant, i.e. they are basically useless. 3) We had to scrap them altogether and turn to J&J instead.
So Oxford wanted to make their vaccine freely available. But wait, had it gone through testing and got government approval? No. would Oxford University have been able to manage a test- and apprpval process in multiple countries? No. So making an untested and not approved vaccine public domain is a pretty useless undertaking. But who wants to know that, Gates-bashing feels so much better.
I’m honestly surprised that Cody didn’t talk about Elon Musk becoming the richest man in the world. Also our Capital/Imperial system is so fucking horrible
"Thats so nice!" PEEN.
This is my shocked face

The pests come when something is out of balance. We've monocropped humans all over the planet. Now the human blight has come. And another one will come soon even if we vaccinate "enough people" against this one. Read fucking Ishmael already please and thank you
I went checking the sources about the Bill Gates' scandal just proposed here and you can't believe what I've found: NOTHING! Beside the usual self proclaimed sources, nothing else to back it up. So I'm now presuming this channel is some sort of FOX News alternative, for those that dislike FOX News. Unsubscribed! Ciao Ciao
You won't hear this on NPR which is partially sponsored by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
Gates' defense for flip flopping on the open source was that the mRNA vaccine was 'too difficult to make' or some shit like that, and then he said some stuff about how potential lack of quality control could sabotage the success ? I dont know, maybe thats legit? But even if it is who cares? Like, why not let people try? Oh, money.
I don't know why people don't just assume this is the case. They seem to be hesitant to engage in skepticism and feel the need to wait before just assuming private companies are profit driven.
Pew pew
One the mentally different, the DNRs are certainly wrong, but the part about how they might be bad candidates for ventilators might be about the fact that they may not understand what is happening and may resist or try to remove it themselves. Notice it doesn't say they are bad candidtes, but "may". It's a guideline to evaluate the person't capacity to accept the treatment.
Ok, a lot of good points, but open sourced vaccine can be made by everyone, right? So correct me if I'm wrong but isn't vaccine something that shouldn't be made by anyone, but only by labs with appropriate equipment and "know how" (maybe with some authorisation by health organizations)? Well maybe it's something that I was brainwashed to think, but is it impossible that counties in need won't excessively exam vaccines from other companies (without certain standards) and that could potentially harm more people and further build distrust in vaccines in general? Think about cheaper alternatives for low quality clothing and now think about getting that quality injected into your body. Of course I don't try to defend billionaires and capitalism. But knowing Bill Gates accomplishments and way of thinking I don't he's greedy to that extend.
I love your videos but they are a bit too long. 10-12 minutes is in my opinion the optimal length of KGcode videos.
Omg! Thanks for this video.
I can't get enough of news. I need... More news? This feeling is new to me.
I just realised if you shaved your beard you’d probably look a lot like that guy everyone sees in their dreams lmfao
IMO, Vaccines should be open source and free to protect everyone or as many people as possible, paying for a vaccine is biological blackmail. Keep up the work Cody! UK here, socialised medicine 🇬🇧🚑💉 Billionaires are doing great in America (financially)🇺🇸 ... not to save the poor with their charity. Also raise the minimum wage to a living wage! Billions are incomprehensible to us. Vaccines should be open source and free!!! ✨ I used to say eat the rich but let’s just call them out accurately and try and get change and also make them pay tax???
Thanks for touching the issue of homeless people and ya know the whole virus thing, but seriously I've been homeless In Tulsa, Oklahoma for 3years now and I couldn't begin to explain what if feels like to get woken up at dawn( in a tent in the woods behind a kum n go mind you)by swat gear & assault rifles (my poor kitty is still traumatized 🙀😿) and given a 1,200 ticket & court date (set for 03/02/2021) and leave with only what we could carry. Also during Winter, with ya know a whole pandemic thing going on which I'm sure you may have heard of. But anyways, love the showdie, brobie wan kenobi.
Raycon commercial was spot on! Hope your residual is over $250k for that talented performance! 🎭
Yep
I worked for AstraZeneca once as a lab technician. They fired me for changing my co-worker's computer background to a picture of Nicolas Cage. They can eat shit
Thank you for this maddening news, I'm getting ready to go out and start commiting hate crimes.
yay
Epipens, insulin, now vaccines... is anyone really surprised?
Yes, we should have started the lockdowns over a year ago. But over a year ago, most of the media and most of the health experts were downplaying the severity of the virus.
FYI, raycons are the raid shadow legends of earbuds. save your money this is just Cody making a quick buck
26:38 gang weeders rise up
Oh, my home town Bellingham is on Some More News! Oh... Crap...
Now I really want to see Cody's Showdy get sponsored by Raid Shadow Legends.
this is a comment
be excellent to each other
very gooooood
social isolation is dangerous. i'm not even on lockdown and this pandemic has made me more depressed than usual. if i had to be locked down i might kill mself
Do you pay ThoughtSlime every time you use their patented and trademarked "rich ghoul"?
MEAN!
Comment
funny thing that whole "dead people can't buy stuff from rich assholes".
Ah yes everything is racism. Bruh I love some of yours news, but some others are just so...... far fucking reached
@30:52 ASMR
Millions of covid cases in europe & u.k alone yet they still get their human experiments on africans!! Why???
2061.79 (sol-terran dating system[defunct]) Galactic Sub-News service, Cindy reporting: The stellar-bound sentients from sol-terra have seen their society collapse, and experts say the dominant species are most likely extinct or very nearly so. The exact cause is unclear. Traffic in the area is unaffected. Always sad to see a young society collapse, isn't it, Gruickshnell'k? Gruickshnell'k: Not really, Julie. Happens a statistically infinite number of times per Planck-moment. Cindy: Wow, that's neat. Gruickshnell'k: Yes, it is. Cindy: And now our first look into quasars identifying as black holes: is it offensive; and if so, to whom?
It really seems that all rich people who got their money through shady business tactics are utterly shortsighted with thinking, that they'll be immune to a mutated version of covid. But hey, at least they will get even more money for more vaccines for all the mutations I guess.
When the whole world is screwed by some guys named Bill and Jeff
Cody, how is your ass the craziest and also most rational news source? You are a treasure. Take a nice vacation as soon as you can, even if it's just eating half an ounce of mushrooms in your den and listening to that seventies album of early techno that was made for plants. Treat yourself. (and any houseplants you might have)
To be fair and balanced TM©® on Veritasium Bill Gates did respond to the the fact that he asked for a not "open source" vaccine, claiming that vaccines are more complicated than jet engines and you couldn't have unsafe factories producing vaccines with maybe not so much safety and, this is a bit of my conclusion but, in this particular moment could be boldening of anti-vaxxers. But keeping the fair and balanced TM©® he did not mentioned anything about the lacking porduction of the astra zeneca vaccine. He did criticised other companies for not participating in the negotiations with oxford university, but it felt a bit weird. At the end of the day, he's still a billionaire and he'll probably have his interests in mind. Also it is hard to discuss this astra zeneca debacle without being technical or without technical knowledge of vaccine production,
I live in Canada (US citizen) and my elderly neighbor was complaining about how the homeless are being housed in hotels. Along the lines of they don't work and they get to live it up. My response was, "They are homeless. It is easy for us to stay home and shelter cause we have a place to live. In N. America we don't care for our homeless population as we should. There is many reasons for people to be homeless outside of being "lazy". I don't think giving them unused rooms and some dignity during a pandemic is a bad thing." My neighbor is a good guy but damn is he so old. Having a job = having worth.
People in rich countries: We don't want to get vaccinated! Me, in Bosnia: Can we just get the vaccines? What's the new date? We don't know?! Cool, cool.
Can’t c u from my high rise yacht. Heheh I love it
Mate, this' truly one of your best vids, brilliant- well researched, well presented, with backing up of facts and points and of course, very very funny...and yes, i am bummed out, but this is essential viewing...much love from UK ❤🍄✌🏻
Well but without the threat of gasping death, or permanent organ damage, or conspiracies about masks, how would we employ people less than what they're worth???
this is half an hour long. I have an exam in half an hour. Perfect.
You forget when SCOTUS ruled racism is over, so we don’t need federal voting laws for certain states.
This is a nice comment.
It's almost like expecting the uber rich to do anything but hoard as much wealth as they can was some kind of mistake. Weird.
i only get my scientific information from katy now
the #'s show that 1/3 of the worlds population needs to go away if this planet is going to survive.
why do you think the rich ALWAYS use the media to divide the general public?
Bill Gates was always a shitty human.
pew! pew! pew!
So we don’t live in a capitalist society. But rather a corporatist one. You do realize it’s competition that ISN’T allowed and that’s why the vaccines aren’t able to be distributed, correct? Like... leftists really can’t figure this basic rule of good economics out?
