[@laurencerosas43]

Thank you vice

[@petesmt]

Beauty is always about being able to achieve the 'rarer'. If food is everywhere, one looks good skinny. If food is scarce, one looks better fat. That's how the world is.

[@peppybracinrealnamechristi9336]

Very interesting way to put it. Kudos!

[@jiahuilee1912]

[@psychicrenegade]

I need to move to Mauritania!

[@tired.5565]

I think alot of it goes back on what we are "taught" as well.

[@conspiraciesarejustgreatst2059]

I love how Shane meets someone for the first time (even if he's been talking to them on the phone or through video) and he becomes extremely comfortable and relaxed with them. It's the exact quality you need, in order to do what he does. And it seems like he's being completely genuine. You can tell when he's just trying to be nice or when he's being genuine and he's being genuine most of the time

[@anonymouse527]

VICE is making a difference by doing these awesome reports. You can't fix the problem if you don't know it exists.

[@Sok.mp4]

Every episode of Vice reminds me of how lucky I've got. Fucking hate saying that, but looking at the poverty in India, middle class in America, I've got it good...

[@Cinnabun]

that's how the U.S government wants you to think.

[@jhdarkgnome]

America Fuck Yea!

[@Sok.mp4]

cinamin45 I don't know. It seems like I rather living in this NSA, foolish, corrupted country rather than Dharavi slum...

[@Cinnabun]

JustSok No one is doubting that, but don't think too much about how 'lucky' you are that's exaclty how they get away with taking more of your shit.

[@thethreeamazingmen]

JustSok your not lucky persay, theyre just unlucky....your living more or less how people should live everywhere

[@KidsWithGuns1992]

I really think vice should talk about a single subject in depth with their episodes instead of briefly touching on many. I find it very frustrating as their content and documentaries are amazing, the format is just poorly done in the tv show.

[@ohsweatbret]

Archetype00 this. They can’t really get into the meat of the topic and the cultural aspects/impacts of it

[@stephenbrodie5617]

I think they should talk about disparity in America and explain to the 99% why they should put their foot down and demand changes for the betterment of society

[@fluffynoses]

the first tour guide in India seemed like such a gracious man. You could tell he wanted to bad mouth the rich, but he took the high road. He knew that badmouthing the rich would not help him or those others in poverty. i wish i could hang out with him

[@oisanji]

Thanks again Shane, and your crew, for showing us more and more about this world.

[@ExzavierWhitleyMusic]

Little house on the Prairie mixed with the children of Korn LMAO

[@ringmaster627]

thomas is always getting the shitty end of the stick for interviews lol

[@ACoupleOfNinjas]

***** Hello my name is Dr Greenthumb and Id like to tell you where Im from

[@yukaiwang8930]

+Dr.GreenTheSmoking Machine Cos Thomas is a baddass. Lol

[@martthesling]

The founder of Vice is worth 400 million. No irony in the pot calling the kettle black.

[@Cucumber-ej1pm]

Where is that number coming from?

[@Cucumber-ej1pm]

93NissanAltima Alright seems legit. God how is Vice worth that kind of money?

[@martthesling]

MultiInko Quinn Weber Forbes.

[@Cinnabun]

is that shanes fault? did he ask to be worth 400 million? I don't quite get how this even matters...

[@martthesling]

cinamin45 He's talking about wealth inequality and trying to get those rich Indian guys feel guilty about their wealth.

[@odertube]

Thomas is hilariously awkward.

[@Dexy83]

Gotta love the algorithm of KZbin recommens... Didn't realize this is 6 years old. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I'd LOVE an update on the Mormon "outcasts." Especially the young men who believed Jeffs wasn't a bad man. 🤦🏼‍♀️ @ViceNews

[@YouTube_is_full_of_trolls]

Yeah, if I built a 1 billion dollar home next to a slum I might worry about bad press.

[@vikramsingh-kq5zp]

well buddy its the way you look at things... for me billion dollar home next to slum suggest, rich and poor living together. The best part about slums in india unlike any other slums in world is they don't involve in activities like drugs, kidnapping. They are just trying to make a honest hard earned living the right way and the reason why i love India.

[@YouTube_is_full_of_trolls]

vikram singh Lol Its called exploitation

[@YouTube_is_full_of_trolls]

vikram singh You think those poor people are enjoying a nice life? They are starving to death, have poor health and no education. What a privilege for the billionaire to live next to the slumdogs.

[@organicchef2714]

vikram singh lol

[@parasprodigy]

It's not next to the slum, it's far off it. But because it's a high rise, it can be seen from some areas in the slum. That billionaires house is actually in a rather posh area of south mumbai, while the slums are in central mumbai. There are sections of the city with slums, does that mean u don't live in good houses if u can afford them, or if slum dwellers can see them? Do westerners drop their belongings just so that some slum dweller won't feel bad about his situation, if he sees a western person living in luxury.

[@JashanKishore]

This is another startlingly eye-opening episode of VICE, perhaps one of my favorites. VICE truly never fails to show the absurdity of the modern condition.

[@tomazevic007]

I always feel bad for thomas, i dont know why, he just looks bad all the time

[@villegas24]

lol he's a hipster. Looking good is mainstream

[@sikram_pr3242]

Thomas is a great journalist! You guys should hire Stacey Dooley she is awesome too (but she works at BBC I think?)

[@rubinephiljames]

"India" *Sitar starts*... Like whyyyy?

[@mizravenkustoms]

Rubine James because sitar is a kick ass instrument

[@cetriyasArtnComicsChannel]

"its a super club that we go to..." my reaction: *pukes*

[@KISHANSINGH-hb7ng]

Nah you are just jealous...;)

[@JaseekaRawr]

+KISHAN SINGH No, we just think human rights & dignity should be respected.

[@mukkaar]

I don't really care if there is rich people in the world. But I think that money should be always kept moving and invested in something, not stored in some bank account. That way it generates jobs and progress. And something like 30 story >private< building next to a slum... come on -.-

[@NoahNobody]

Well it did create jobs to build it, and it creates 600 jobs to run it, but it's all tied up in one small centre. Imagine how many small companies and services 1 billion dollars could create.

[@mukkaar]

***** You get money by investing it. If you save money you will never get rich, basics of business. By investing money to business you gain revenue and it generates jobs etc. same time.

[@mukkaar]

Randy Marsh Yep, he should build a big mansion to some nice place like normal billionaires :D I wouldn't want to see slums everywhere I look.

[@mukkaar]

***** You won't really find any millionaires that got rich by saving money, excluding those who inherited or got it from lottery or something.

[@mukkaar]

***** What's your point? And I'm awesome by the way.

[@samisavage891]

I can't imagine how bad COVID must've been in those slums.. It really hurts seeing people in such poor conditions knowing there's pretty nothing being done to help :(

[@austinmontgomery1769]

Covid wasnt around then.

[@allilee2523]

@@austinmontgomery1769you think those slums just disappeared off the face of earth before Covid hit? 😂😂😂

[@MichaelNetwork]

These "lost boys" are good kids. You can tell they are only going to benefit our society ... so thanks... yea I guess thanks for raising your boys to be honest / hardworking / loyal / caring men and then kicking them out like they aren't blood to a world that needs more good / honest men and woman. You can tell the one young man misses his family and just wants to go home... he's still a kid.

[@nikoleambis7870]

Writing yeah right many are pedophiles

[@erikmc2]

121 pounds it pretty damn light.

[@conspiraciesarejustgreatst2059]

Crazy how different those Mumbai slums are compared to our beautiful cities and neighborhoods here in the US. Even our worst "slums" or "ghettos" look like paradise compared to Mumbai's slums

[@bouyant8659]

THOMAS.. YOU ARE SUCH A TROOPER.... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING

[@Thehermderm]

Lmao when he said they sent Thomas I was like noooooo but they actually did!🤦🏼‍♂️😂 what a guy to send to such a place he always stands out so much I love it

[@andrewwhite8122]

thomas bro, 121 lbs? fat camp will do you some good

[@graviddavid2627]

15:41

[@jpc123ful]

Gavage: "Two or three lunches daily, you stay inside and try not move; you dont have a job." Thomas just described my adult son. Murica....the land of on line video games, fast food and man-tits.

[@チョウアキラ]

I have been Mumbai two years ago, back to the time, the scene is more than we can imagine..

[@marcusliou2812]

They should just cut off warren’s communication with the outside world.

[@g0stn0te]

i know exactly how these kids feel. having a con artist dad who brainwashes and controls produces the same feelings when you leave. i feel for you guys!

[@kruykaze]

Another great episode.

[@Arthur-Silva]

The FLDS shit is insane! I hope those exiled kids have an opportunity to have a good life, they deserve a better life, they're brave!

[@Germfish]

Don't know how anyone can dislike Vice, you guys bring the real news from all over the world. And you're usually good at keeping bias out of it, you present all sides well and leave your personal bullshit out of it. Much better than watching the non sense that's on TV.

[@michelvec]

Great documentary except for the script. Does it have to suck for it to be on HBO? I thought that Vice had standards, and yes, I am talking about the CEO.

[@GetOutsideYourself]

One of the best representations of an Indian slum I've ever seen. Congratulations. The polygamy cult has been well documented elsewhere, but nice job showing the paranoia of their "God Squad" and the vestiges of loyalty that stubbornly remain in the exiled. That's a real mind fuck, and if the state doesn't have an interest to step in there and fix the situation, they might as well have no laws at all anywhere.

[@StationOfTerrapin]

i love the last segment. such a clear show of the wealth disparity

[@MrMexijorge]

22:03 - 22:35 That part really opened my eyes, it's almost like a cience fiction movie scene.

[@devondevon4366]

Vice could have done more to support the story as showing one wealthy guy in Mumbai doesn't really support it.

[@12donda]

man i love VICE ---- show what fucked up world this is

[@Emily-zx3lp]

Nice Lacoste shirt, Shane. Probably made by some of those kids in the slums of India. :)

It’s crucial that Mormon Women have hair cuts circa 1987. And never have a Gavash milkshake

[@theclawsoncrew13]

@Vice News. My family is planning a trip to India. I would love to teach my children the other end of the coin so they can appreciate what we have. Where can I find the tour guide that helped you

[@SirianSoul]

Really VICE ? REALY ? You send this little tiny man for that mission? ////LOL!

[@tsepzican]

LMFAO i thought he was gonna die

[@seanberge1]

Ditsepu Segerane Maybe they don't like Thomas. If they are sending him to interview cannibals after this story, we will know the answer.

[@JackgarPrime]

He seems to be the one they like to send off on stories where he'll be abusing his body. Wasn't he also sent to that Christmas fist-fighting thing in Peru?

[@psychicrenegade]

Just because someone hasn't directly beaten you...doesn't mean they haven't HURT you, Leroy!

[@EternalBliss11]

09:49 he just loves that triple 6 sign so much ,every show he shows it atleast 3 times even tho when his talking it doesnt have meaning behind sentence,atleast we know now for who he has his loyalty

"Half of the world is living off the garbage of the other half in this post-apocalyptic nightmare." Bravo.

[@arnoldrivas4590]

What's with the audio? This is great, but there's a bit of a problem here compared to the rest which are just fine.

[@conspiraciesarejustgreatst2059]

Aww...those girls who were laughing at him for having a stomach ache were adorable. A shame they are stuck in those barbaric societies. But hey, to them, that's life. Glad they seem really happy despite their tall task

[@koolkidzism]

I think it's right shameful to have such an amazing hotel of a house right next to a slum. He could build a regular mansion and give the rest to house and feed all of those poor people

[@AN3MY]

No matter if they're being force fed or not, that girl is really pretty!

[@skillinp1388]

Amazing stuff, this is why I love Vice

[@matthewcarey563]

That part when they're in india, when they do a close up of the green water..

[@johndoerubytosa]

i really think each of the issue in this episode should have their own documentary because there are more stuff that we can know and learn. they are making each very short just to fit them in a 30 min in HBO which is so sad.

[@akell2]

27:10 wrong. France : rich are taxed up to 75% for the ones earning above 1M euros per year. However, poor are stil getting poorer

[@tomatoisasquishyfruit]

I am an Indian and, trust me its the law of jungle " the fittest survives and the rest die", I believe its the same all over the globe, but in india its a whole new level. Overpopulation is damn threatening. Millions of graduates come out every year after all that hard work, you get no job. and many wind up on the streets and suburbs doing menial jobs. Many dont even get to see school. if u got money, influence, power u own the country. Now a days its in our DNA- do anything to survive.

[@hanabi8972]

If you're in a religion, and they won't let you leave, it's a cult.

[@RahulKulkarni2011]

The disparity does not seem like ending soon either.

[@VoidHalo]

Why is the sound quality on these episodes always so poor? It has a hollow sort of quality to it.

[@doingtime20]

Honestly this is disgusting, how can you care so little about something that is right in your face? This guy is obsessed with himself and building a higher building than the other billionaire, all while people around him are almost drowning in sewer waters. Unbelievable.

[@sarahallenhumboldt2638]

The abuse of the animals is heart-breaking. Many geese die while or after being force-fed. The little goat whose leg is tied to a post is crying out for his family, and is being ignored.; goats are social animals and need to be in a pack in order to feel safe and secure.

[@CharlesMartel676]

Awesome, awesome videos, Shane! Please, keep up the great work! Sincerely, you and your crew are true journalists!

[@areruben10]

Very interesting information. I learned a lot! Regards from Mexico.

[@LangeE612]

The gap between rich and poor is growing, but the extreme poor are getting less poor. As long as poverty decreases, I personally am willing to accept the rich getting richer if that's the price.

[@Iatimere]

keep putting these on youtube!

[@pokez5523]

“At this point, I don’t give a shit about money,” he said. “I’m worth more money than I can ever spend. The best piece of advice I ever got from anyone was when Spike Jonze said take money out of the equation. And that’s actually when Vice started making lots of money. That’s when I stopped worrying about money and started worrying about what I wanted to do.” - Shane Smith

Most American men haven't weighed 121 pounds since they were in the 9th grade.

It's interesting that Shane finishes by saying half of the world is living off the garbage of the other half in this post-apocalyptic nightmare. I agree in a sense, but when was the apocalypse? It seems that some of us weathered it quite well.
