NEOM Is The Parody Of The Future

very bias !

Bewildered people: "Pyramids were had to be built by aliens. It's unrealistic that a dictator would just throw million of slaves to build something wildly unrealistic and pointless"
Oil billionaires with unlimited money and regional power:

If this video wasn’t made, i would have never known that we have this many adults (probably) in the comment section can act like jealous b i t c h e s. It’s quite funny. It's their money, their dream, their project and people have done so many things which seemed to be "impossible" in the past. So, If you don't like it, just ignore it. You don't have to show that you are about to burst with jealousy.

insanely funny and informative at the same time I love it 😭

Ok but this shit aint real right? Its not really happening right?

Didn't they ever see judge dred?

This is what happens when you have a half-baked, uneducated autocracy with unlimited wealth derived from resources they had slave labor extract running the show.

NEOM is basically a WH40k hivecity.

1. All these projects are stupid, which leads to 2. These projects are used to wash billions of money, who can tell if some millions weren't paid to DAESH instead of the craftsmen.

I would love to see Adam design his idea futuristic city.

In order to save a lot of money they could make it 170km wide but only 200mts long.

NEOM is already being talked about in certain circles the opportunity of a lifetime.....to scam the Kingdom of every cent possible. So many different developers are pitching anything they can and accepting downpayments then taking off. Good for them I say!

Thunderf00t has a good video going over how the Line doesn't make sense. The comment section was having a great time laying out all sorts of exotic engineering problems The Line offers. the list was unending.
The sheer hubris of this utterly nonsensical and insane project truly is something else.

One underrated thing I want to point out - Whoever lives in this hellhole will have a high chance of becoming myopic, especially if they are children. Their eyes muscles will always be contracted because they don't focus on far off distance often, except sky, making their eyeball to become egg shaped and severely myopic overtime. 
More severe myopia means more chances of going blind later in life.

Will it have a roof? If not it's going to be rather "wind tunnel" like

The fact that the city is basically going to spy on you, and also "This is a cognitive city that not only learns from your needs but will learn to anticipate them" reads like a ctOS commercial that Blume would put out in Watch Dogs, you know, the game about a smart city that spies on everything you do?

Just think, you can now make sure that the gays don’t survive the fall.

Can't wait for this to fail, so we can finaly have a cyberpunk dystopia

the line is SO HORRENDOUSLY STUPID I can't believe that people rl think it's going to work

You didn't say; are they planning to build and connect to the sewage system or just organise daily poo shipments?😂

Horizontal "Silo"

I just want to bring up also they are making really a giant wall that's also a mirror. My god would that blind anyone looking at it and if it's dark it would hurt to walk into.

I like my car. I like to drive. Pro tip- almost everyone else does, too.
Bonus pro tip- public transportation is unsafe, inconvenient and unpleasant.

It's the Lorax dystopia

What Pertrodollar? LOL cope and seethe. US Weaponized $$$ will be worthless in a few years TOP. tho i agree the plans they present do seem kinda silly.

The real problem is the distribution of material goods (food, clothing, gadgets, other daily needs, cargos, etc.) for millions of people. The freight transports may be fast but time are generally consumed on the stoppage, hauling, loading, unloading, checking goods, and sub-deliveries to hundred of thousands retailers and groceries which need to be constantly supplied from manufacturers.

time to get into escalator business

It's about controlling people.
I saw the WEF conference, they talked about controlling every move of people from what food they buy, what they watch, how much internet access they have, what medicine they take etc. They will incert a chip inside your body so they know where you are and what you're doing.
The Line is in the middle of nowhere for a reason, so you cannot escape.

at least they should have tried 1.7km before going for 170km. Then they could rectify any shortcoming of the plan before going for 170km. Now it's like writing the whole windows operating system without debugging.

Berlin Wall 2: Extreme

Why isn't the Chinese building stupid projects like this? Or may be its their high speed train system? Or mega dam? Or subway to nowhere? Or ghost cities?

Its very cleverly (but evil-y) designed to control the people who live in it. Can't travel anywhere without taking specific routes, desert outside so can't leave, can't import anything without it going in or out through specific routes so your possessions are all regulated, very easy to control surveillance (basically a giant long panopticon)

When I see shit like this, I become more and more sure that the humanity is FUCKED.

you always slip in a one radical leftist line into each video. I admire the consistency

The line was my favorite mission in Mirror's Edge.

How could anyone, even a bloated Saudi autocrat, think this atrocity is a good idea? Who would volunteer to live in it? I'd much rather inhabit a bedouin tent, developed over millenia for desert living.

They can't actually be serious about this. It's got to be just a vague promise and "proof" that this country is more than drying up oil fields, and "definitely" has a future 😉

Well, i am working as a designer for NEOM!

If this project fails then God is real

It just a wall...borders..that's the motive

You seem to complain about everything urban in your videos. Contemporary cities are like an urban jungle where you will experience environmental problems (traffic congestion; pollution; exposure to climatic extremes) and social problems (social disconnect; inequalities, elitism; eroding culture) due to bad governance, overcrowding, and modern-age idiocrasy. You need to spend a lot to mitigate these discomforts in person. The world needs to shift from contemporary urbanism, towards building a cluster of smaller (well-managed) sustainable cities with advanced technologies, and each can have its own style and culture.

When I'm in a funk, I like to put on videos that remind me there are much dumber people in the world than I.

Oh, please workers' rights,are you crazy Americans, your country killed half a million Iraqi children and killed more than half a million people with atomic bombs, and now you are talking about human rights. What if the video was talking about New York or Los Angeles, you suddenly become stupid about the massacres committed by your country? (And despite most of the information about human rights in the Gulf, your newspapers lie with double standards)

So now no carbon emission and no homeless people is dystopian to you people

And just think, all I need is a cardboard box under the bridge with a 5 million dollar recording studio in the basement.

Change the speaker. cannot understand this fast talking AI bot. Besides this, it is scary! Anyone who has lived in that country knows this and why would anyone live there?

It'slike a black mirror episode

A ski resort on crack and some balls will shuttle people around. NEOM looks really BIG!

So my question how do they do ,construction and dispose garbage, or any blue color work without roads. Goodluck.
