Coronavirus Pandemic Illustrates Importance of Scientific Literacy | MSNBC
Them: having a actual conversation about the pandemic
Me: Bill nye the science guy Bill bill bill bill bill bill bill bill bill
@Stiggy Vanderkskeen what kind of name is VANDERKSKEEN???
Try this one… go Baaaaah
Or there’s the cow that goes moo.
Bill is not a good person. I’m sorry.
Alan Malcheski I never said he was a good person all I said was that’s I was singing the theme song
@Andrew Muldoon oh. That ruins my sarcasm then. Well my work here is done. Goodbye.
@Goodshag Productions Guess you’ve never heard of hermaphrodites?
“Let’s look at it this way-”
No, Bill, no. It’s “Consider the following.”
@Hildebeast Clinton You are a troll. Shut up
Hildebeast Clinton dark into light
The leader of the church of satan is named lucien. Did you take that name, or was it given to you?
It’s a very simple question, Lucent… did you name yourself after the leader of the church of satan, Lucien?
Stiggy Vanderkskeen
As then FBI Director, Robert Mueller falsely testified to Congress that Saddam had WMDs in Iraq. Guess what? That gave Bush-Cheney the green light on six 20+ year wars.

Goat and pawpaw test positive for covid – 19
I’ll bet you can find “information” that lawn movers and alien spaceships have tested positive for covid-19 if you google it.
@Håkan Bråkan Kråkan you’re off that pack
@SAVAGE TUNER Some packs have also tested positive for covid-19 according to google. But according to google earth and world maps in general, “that pack” I belong to lives in an area close to the polar circle that is quite low populated. And where official statistics—even if only suspected cases at hospitals have been tested for now—show there has been very few cases. And as people—according to my own observation and understanding of our way of culture (social distancing common even without a dangerous virus)—behave extremely responsible here, there are no longer any covid patients showing up at the hospital. Even if laws actually are a bit relaxed here, people in general understand science and are better educated then American’s in general. So no one have to force us to behave responsible and follow recommendations. And the politicians (government and opposition in unison)—that we have more fait in compared to how much Americans have fait in their politicians—have decided to let the medical experts take the lead in how to deal with the situation. So the chances that “my pack” have covid-19 are low. But there is still a long time to go before the situation is over. Fortunately for us our government and opposition over the years have decreased the national debt to such an extent that national economical experts have even said it is to low. Because both people and businesses understands why the thing called “taxes” are important, and because the politicians understand what you should use taxes for. So we can afford to increase it substantially in a situation like this. And people who gets unemployed can receive the usual unemployed funds that you can sustain on. Big businesses are relatively wealthy and can mostly sustain on their own.
The only thing there has really been debates about is in what way smaller businesses should be helped financially. Left and right agree that they must be helped substantially. And the government and the opposition thanks each other for the constructive relationship they have in the the discussions. Although exactly how is tricky. You wan’t subsidizes and loans to be as effective and manageable as possible. And be based on how to solve the financial problems for many businesses that are quite different from each other.
Well… that’s the pack I belong to. Now lets hope my lawn mover won’t infect me this summer.
This happened as people with intelligence were saying the lack of government oversight meant sub standard faulty test kits. Another failure of the Trump administration, one that’s not happened in any other country.
@Håkan Bråkan Kråkan “better educated *than American(‘)s”(no apostrophe). Also you used “in general” twice in that sentence. “So no one *has(not have) to force us…” Also………… “fait”??…… wow… “And people who gets unemployed..” haha yeah.. better educated….chump.
Hey does anyone remember the meme “Bill Nye your mom’s a guy”.
I don’t know I just remembered Bill from middle school.
Me
@robot 596 obama’s last name is trump 🙄 peoppll are so dubm nowadays
Bill bye the Russian spy
@robot 596 my last name is [REDACTED]
Sounds like your average middle school humor.
“I’m not upset that you lied to me, I’m upset that from now on I can’t believe you.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
@cj p he didnt actually want to know why obamagate was, he just wanted to feel like he was smarter than you
cj p have you seen Trump’s tax returns then?
@Logic B4Religion does talking to russians equate to collusion?
Where are your impeachment articles?
Page 2 of the mueller report at the top. “no evidence the trump staff cooperated or collude with russian gov”. Go read it.
@Rod Noble Rachel maddow did.
Just proved that trump paid 35 million in taxes for 2004. So did the experts on tax fraud at the irs find anything?
@Logic B4Religion people are actually still touting Russia gate? Are you honestly still stuck in that media loop and are you being satirical? Please tell me the media hasn’t sunken their claws that deep into your consciousness
This reporter’s childhood dreams are coming true and it really made my day.
Sad story in the news, a man at the Los Angeles Zoo fell into the Tiger exhibit and was mauled by the 2 tigers housed in the facility. Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of the brave doctors and nurses the subject passed away an hour later from complications due to Coronavirus.
Darth Vader You made me chuckle. Good job
@Darth Vader what does that have to do with someone having a moment of joy? do you like to go to birthday partys to let people know that their ancestors are dead?
@Darth Vader Ha!
Good job.
Keep trying to ignore the problem.
Hope your lungs get utterly violated by the virus.
Anthony. Bill nye is an engineer. Anything he says that’s non-related to his field of study is opinion. Not fact.
How can you expect science literacy when people barely have reading literacy.
How can you expect science literacy to be a real thing? He just… made that up, it’s not an actual term. Like the statistic he made up to start this show… everyone wearing masks cuts the risk in half.. that is a lie, he has absolutely nothing to back that up with.
You… pathetic… demented idiots.
@Alan Malcheski do you have a mechanically engineering degree? What makes you think you’re qualified to disagree with his medical advise? (sarcasm) This was an actual argument used by some leftist halfwit against me on this thread.
SERIOUSLY!
@CVSP3R LxCabsolutely right now there is a revolving door between fox news and the Trump administration . He is placing them into positions that are not normally politically appointee places which is odd.
@Logic B4Religion Here’s what the smithsonian said “much of the Bible, in particular the historical books of the old testament, are as accurate historical documents as any that we have from antiquity and are in fact more accurate than many of the Egyptian, Mesopotamian, or Greek histories. These Biblical records can be and are used as are other ancient documents in archeological work. For the most part, historical events described took place and the peoples cited really existed. This is not to say that names of all peoples and places mentioned can be identified today, or that every event as reported in the historical books happened exactly as stated. There are conflicts between present archeological evidence and historical reports that may result from a lack of information on our part or from misunderstandings or mistakes by the ancient writers.”
Bruhhhh I’m dead at this point 🤣
Bill nyeee THE SCIENCE GUY I remember School saying that;(
Edit: wow the likes 😮 thx
@David Pettit Sad story in the news, NASA lost one if it’s satellites. The satellite was launched 10 years ago to study Saturn, but passed away recently due to complications caused by Coronavirus.
Bill nyeee your mom’s a guy
Idk when you took your profile pic but you look like you still got a lot of years of school left,but the physical place school is..
You must be a sad pathetic person. YouTube likes are important in your world ? I feel sorry for you
Chromulous lol
They should introduce him as, said rapidly “Bill Nye the science guy” “Bill Bill Bill Bill “Bill Nye the science guy” . I always liked that intro back in the day.
When I saw Bill Nye something just broke inside me
@David Lafleche i wear clothes cuz i wuz robbed. evolution robbed me fur, mate, can ya imagine that?
@Random Internet Person “Evolution” is a racist, Satanic religion (Isaiah 14:13-14, KJV). “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth” (Genesis 1:1, KJV). Even so, come, Lord Jesus! Establish the Kingdom in Jerusalem, and keep the world safe from Democracy!
Daemonite A bigot calling others fools. You are a living stereotype. The scientific method itself was invented by Christians. Not that you care about history or facts.
Tuhljin Tampergauge Go hug your bible or koran or whatever, i now I’m wasting my time talking to you religious nutjobs. Peace ✌️
Random Internet Person so there is a devil but no god. Right😒. You clicked on this video because you saw a scientist. Let us consider that if there is a devil the universe does tend to a balanced and constant state. And that supports the existence of god
Be honest, who else clicked on this cuz of mf Bill Nye the science guy
I did I’m not going to even lie 😂
Yep clicked on it because of Bill Nye. It’s sad that at a point in my life I respected him. Then again we all have to grow up sometime
@Chase Rayfield I concur. I remember working at the St. Louis Science Center and a co-worker who had a minor in physics (Bach in music which was his evening job) and our “bill Nye” was his guide. When my friend came down he was surprised by how rude and terse he was with him.
I did cuz I watched his videos during elementary and middle school, well because of my teachers during those times
What is the big deal with this guy? I did some research on him and the farthest his education goes is a mechanical engineering degree. Lol literally every scientist out there has a PhD degree. This guy isn’t qualified to talk about of lot of different sciences.
When I was scrolling on YouTube and saw this I said “is that bill nye”
This made me lol bc I said the same exact thing. Had to click!
Ik I saw it and said that’s a very familiar face
My exact words
I said, oh look there’s that corporate puppet, the science liar.
Bill Nye the actor! Bill Bill Bill!
Let’s be honest
You clicked this because of him
Yea
Previous month I managed to pull my first five figure income ever!!! I’ve been working for this provider on the web for twenty four months now and I never been happier… They are paying me $95 per hour, and the most desirable thing regarding it is that I am not really that tech-savvy, they only required basic knowledge about internet and basic typing skill…Superb thing about this work is the more time I got with my kids. I am in a position to dedicate quality time with my friends and family and take care of my babies and also going on holiday vacation together with them very routinely. Don’t let pass this opportunity and make sure to respond fast. Check it out, what it is about… *worth48.com*
“Honestly”, I just wanted to see what idiotic thing he was going to have come out of his mouth _this_ time.
Of course, Bill is the best!
Scientific science would be nice… Much love & light… ☮️ ☮️ ☮️
omg!!! IT”S BILL NYE THE SCIENCE GUY! I KNEW IT! HE is the only REASON I passed my science classes growing up.
I remember watching his show in school time flys
I remember when Bill mopped the floor with Ken Ham he should do more debates.
“And the reason that we’re able to do that… With my hair sticking up over here….” Hahahaha
“Bill Nye the climate hysteric guy”
