A demotatorship, if you will.

Thanks, oritteropo! Feels good.

I fully understand. Thanks for the upvote! It's something I had no idea about until I watched the video so I think it's definitely good to share it as much as possible.

They're not. That's the whole point.

A great BBC article that talks about this exact thing: http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-26073797

It's totally a science video with only a small part of the video dedicated to explaining Harper's science policies. You might have a little bit of confirmation bias going on...

It definitely focusses partially on Canada's current scientific political climate but because of that is highly topical, considering what will happen over the next eight days. To dismiss it is to give power to Harper and the Conservatives.

(for the Zehnder video) Thanks! It's a pretty amazing work.

Please note: I dislike that this happened, but I do think it' s interesting and important to see, however cringeworthy..

Well done! I recently celebrated my first Top 15 after 9 years, too! Feels good, eh? Congrats!

What, no thank you for Rashida Jones?

*promote the knowledge! I don't think there's anything I can directly do with this knowledge but I sure did find it interesting!

Right, I had wondered that, but couldn't see anywhere on the video page where it was marked as long..

Intense! Something they didn't address, though, was how that six-wheel sixteen-letter combination lock was set properly. I need to know!

I'm so glad we don't (really) need to think about this stuff in this day and age...

This is wonderful.

This. Is. So. Awesome.
