Boulder is “Covid-19.” The little building that falls is “the economy.” The giant is “wearing masks”. The village is “society.”

This 'Tale of momentum & inertia' made me seek for great animeted short films. A true story about mankind and it's doom. :D

Mercy is the mark of a great man.
He definitely gave it the college try
itsallaboutthecones
Did he though? It was his fault that the down was about to be destroyed. Their weapons had not effect on him. So he could have easily fixed
His mistake in spite of their defensive actions.
It is his fault that it started down there but he definitely tried to save their lives. I would say one building
Knock down is more than a price to pay than the rest of them. Still, he was attacked so he let it go. He tried.

MANY thanks for having gotten me to find “DUST” UTube channel. Looks like I can graduate from Imgur.

First time I see a Mary Sue mountain.
I don't know about that. Mary Sue's have no problem and he had a problem stopping it just lucky enough to stop it.

The big guy is Dr. Fauci, the town is america, and the rock is Covid-19
CorrectMostOfTheTime
Only if fauci released covid does that work
NinjaLurkerTheUpvoter
But isn't Trump and his supporters were the only ones pelting Dr. Fauci, I don't think they should represent America.
Styxwash
And Fauci is also a rock solid guy
Ha! Nice

Except Fauci kept trying to help the town, even as they pelted him with stuff.

Fauci caused covid?
guessing the downvote is from someone who hasn't seen the full video and is ok with taking things out of context as proof
ladiesman524
If you watch the original, the boulder is rolling down because of the giant. It's his fault in the first place.
Yes I know, it's a great little video. But this shortened version is being used as is. My comment stands
This is the problem with short gifs and cropped stories. You don't get context or the full picture.
VibratingNipples
Why almost no one even post the full video anymore? It easily a min long
Ryukee
Because the rock monster was in the wrong
Because this is a repost of the last time someone did that, rather than a repost of the full thing which has been posted before
pynergelado
Because humans being if ignorant and unnecessarily violent fits imgurs narrative better than the original video
Does your username check out?

Because it paints a different picture about responsibility than the one a lot of folks want to talk about, I'd wager.

At least link the YT video in the description silly. You can also just download the YouTube video...
One easy trick is to add pp between YouTube and .com to download video or audio

Saw this before with the rock giant thing as "nuclear power" the Boulder as "global warming" and the villagers as "the world"
SoapyMammaryMasturbation
In the full video, the rock giant caused the boulder to fall in the first place, so, probably not accurate.

Yeah, you only get one chance to make a first impression, lol the only time you hear about nuclear plants is when they fucking explode ?

Coal industry pushed the agenda against nuclear power, cause coal causes much more pollution in the large scale

The world needs the new generation of reactors. But anti-science environmentalists won't have it. The non-crazy ones understand, thankfully.

Nuclear power will never be successful in a capitalist country. Look at every nuclear accident and it always traces back to cut corners.
This is the first time I seen this I don't even know where it's from ? but I'm absolutely loving it?

What’s funny is it changes the story a bit, at least for me as the Boulder is his fault, the weapons do no dmg to him, so he’s a dick
This is actually really good I would love to see the daily life of this giant.
Mokelzwerg
Why?
That's a fair question. It's pretty unique seeing the perspective a misunderstood giant that has no qualms against letting things happen
Beezlebubble
Better question: why not? In depth lore of the world it's from, story telling, fun.
But in the full the giant is the one who causes the rock to roll to begin with
By mistake, of course.
The town doesn't know that and he's so large they can't even see the boulder from their vantage
GradientApollo
Early power development caused this mess; the only way to fix it is power the world with something that won't come back and ask us for money

Radiation will just take our lives and leave the money
TheNax
You think there is no radiation where you are now? There is background radiation everywhere from the Sun, space, the soil etc. Nuclear >
has the lowest death toll pr. TWH created compared to any type of energy production. Also compared to wind, solar etc. Happy to find >
SeanBeanDiesAlot
In the non-crazy sectors of the Enviro mvnt its the cost of Nuc that most of us have a problem with, it's very expensive vs other options
DonutTramp
Much cheaper in the long run, just expensive to build a reactor.
"Cheaper for who" is always the question in this though, is it public vs private building &charging rates? & lifetime costs are significant
Cheaper TCO per KWH. Problem is the up front is WAY more expensive so the ROI is longer.
demosteness
Radioactivity lasts 27.000 year. How many nuclear disasters we had in 100 years of nuclear energy? How many will be in 27.000?
Hmmm yes let's just keep building dams and burning coal. Sounds good.
Hmmm no let’s just keep burying radioactive waste and fusing some core every 25 years. Sounds better.
New reactors dont do that.
Kuuppajumi
Umm, you don't seem to understand the concept of radioactivity... The nuclear fuel is mined from the ground and is naturally radioactive.
Oh you seem to understand better. Then what’s the problem with Chernobyl and Fukushima?
The level and energy of radiation (the level of radiation in Fukushima is lower than in Finland normally and really we have no issues).
This is a good place to start; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioactive_decay .

Nuclear power can devastate the environment when its in the wrong hands.
No shit coal is bad. Solar guys, solar and wind. Not nuclear.
pandachariot

Wmcmwa
So can coal
ifPokemonWereReal
My primary issue with nuclear is the waste from spent fuel rods that we have no way of dealing with for 100,000 years. I do still believe1/2
We need to research how to make the waste safe. However, until then shouldn't we slow production until there is a solution?
LooseyGooseyBrett
Coal power devastates the environment when in anyone's hands.
So your whataboutism agrees that they both devastate the environment?
baddrunkneighbor
Swapping out one dangerous resource for another while ignoring wind, solar, hydro, geothermal, etc is pretty common here on imgur.
ArkenX
Except none of the renewables can replace the base load provided by nuclear/gas/coal so we have to use constant generation regardless.
For some reason, nuclear power is believed to be the be all end all to climate change when this site brings it up. It's pretty annoying
Tbf, nuclear power still produces waste, so it's about as permanent a solution as coal, regardless of who's turning it into electricity
The nuclear waste required to support a American lifestyle for the life of 1 person would fit in you hand.
That waste can be safely stored or turned into weapons grade plutonium and reused.
The key thing is that we control the waste. For coal and other hydro-carbons we can only dump the waste into the atmosphere.
RepresentativeOfNorway
Nuclear waste is easier to deal with though. Drill a real deep hole and let it stay there forever securely taken care of
Its by far no permanent solution but far better than coal
Eltuen
Also, haven't we found ways to reuse nuclear waste? At least in some cases
