Dang, the new video is NOT the original Sabine video and is some weird, stupid thing. Please change it back to Sabine's video.

The new video is however a spot on commentary on people who didn't worry about climate change but now do. Very sharp swap, IMO.

I saw a few seconds of people yelling and turned it off. What is this crap?

Try listening to what they were saying. It's a skit, but with some biting truth.

I genuinely gave it a try but either my smartphone speakers or my ears weren't up to the task of having this at a non-obnoxious volume during the screaming while being able to understand the lines being spoken. Subtitles are not available and the auto-generated ones are (predictably, for this format) quite unusable.

If there's a point they're making, I wasn't able to hear it unfortunately :/ Can't imagine what a hard-of-hearing or deaf person would have to make of the auto subtitles...

It's a sketch comedy YouTube group. In this sketch a group of scientists are accosted by two people representing the rich and politically powerful who are yelling that people are dying outside because of poison falling from the sky. The scientists take this in stride saying it was a bit earlier than they predicted. The politicians try to get the scientists to do something, but they refuse angrily throwing their papers in the politicians faces that predicted this outcome. The scientists then don additional PPE as the politicians die (there wasn't enough funding to make PPE for them) and the scientists walk out the door to go see a movie, noting that they won't have any competition for the theatre since everyone else is probably dead.

That scientists have been telling policy makers for decades, and by the time they're taken seriously, it's going to be way too late.

Maybe I speak for myself, but the reason I visit this site is for longer in-depth topics on everything, not just tech. I'm not a programmer, more IT, so some posts are way over my head.

But this site is a good filter to get good, long articles and videos and in-depth discussion in the comments.

Short meme comedy skits can be left to plenty of sites like 9gag/some subreddits etc. There is a time and a place for that too. But in my opinion, not on HN.
