Kari Byron recently starred in Shell's video that's supposed to convince everyone that fossil fuels are great.

That's really, really, disappointing. What a shame.

[–] cactusupyourbutt@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thank you downvote pluggis, YIKES, I didn't need to watch more than a second because I've never seen something bomb that low and still be up on YT.

More than 17k downvotes* vs. not even 1000 upvotes 🤘

Shell doesn't care and neither does Kari, this is like knocking down a trashcan and calling yourself an anarchist

Man that's really disappointing to see. I literally background watch mythbusters every night as I'm going to bed and I've loved the show since I was a kid. Hope the remainder of the crew continues to maintain their integrity.

At least Adam Savage is a good dude. He is actively running his YouTube channel, and often answers various questions including personal ones.

And I at least know that he has actively tweeted in support of LGBTQ+ rights. I highly doubt he would sell out for big oil.

Adam savage was openly supportive of trans people in like the aughts. He’s just been consistently a great guy

I live in San Francisco and ran into him at brunch a few weeks ago - he was super friendly when I came up to talk to him and super patient and sweet. I was super nervous that meeting him would ruin my image of him but it is still intact :)

Aww I love hearing positive stuff like this about people

It probably helps that he's probably a millionaire and has some tremendous life achievements under his belt.

Notice how no one spent any consideration for the fact that she is a broke Actor as opposed to a Millionaire. Hate the message not the messenger.
