@@alphaomega6023 take love. From Bangladesh

The irony is most people don't even know Bangladesh exists. There have been occasions where I introduced myself as a Bangladeshi and people (mostly European and Americans) responded as "Oh! you are from India. cool!". If you listen to this whole podcast you will know how much it hurts to hear that. I am not blaming people for that. It's our fault we could not make ourselves recognized as much. But seeing you are shedding light on our history, It does really mean a lot.

What a weird coincidence! I get canker sores too 😶

I just saw your video about Operation Searchlight on Nebula. As a Bangladeshi, I really really appreciate that you're raising awareness about a genocide that the world isn't aware of and where there hasn't been any justice whatsoever. Thank you so much!

Being a Bangladeshi, can't thank you enough Scott Carney for exposing this important piece of the world history to the outside world. Great job, kudos.

This was great. Thank you! Please cover the atrocities in Tigray, Ethiopia, next!

GREAT INTERVIEW!

I really enjoyed this, please bring him back.

I truly enjoyed this interview. Watching this video reminds me of my earlier conversations with my best friend. We are both 1st generation immigrants, I am from Cambodia, and she is from Bangladesh. It was odd to both of us that our country atrocities only took a single line, if any, in the history class. In our 40s now, we can't ignore the political connectivity, the Marxist movements in our universities, and the tribalism rhetoric that is dividing and polarization of America. History is repeating itself just because we've elected megalomaniac leaders that are fine with renaming schools and streets and permitting alternative history based on ideological agenda driven by group think and not data driven and reality.

All immigrant stories need to be taught at public school! Read, read, read.

I'm Chiricahua, and if you'd like, you should cover The Long Walk and The Trail of Tears, when they forced my great great great grandfather and his only surviving daughter (the rest starved) to walk from Arizona to OK. The Trail of Tears is what the Cherokee suffered as they were moved from their homes in the east. The Long Walk is what the western tribes, such as my people and the Dene and Comanche, suffered.

Dear Scott: Thank you so so much for telling the World what terrible things happened during the period of Holocast we experienced that created the wonderful country of Bangladesh. I am writing a autobiography about it entitled " Daktar Push Me Pull You". A Memoir of a B.Desh Missionary Physical l

Dear Creator, I found this podcast through watching you on Nebula. I find Operation Searchlight fascinating. Thank you for intruducing my mind to this. edit: I am a nerd who is learning Hindi from my Marathi friend from Maharashtra to visit India in order to experience Holi (not here in Warsaw) for the first time. I am a former PEP of the Greens/EFA who loves Vindaloo (no meat) in a Benghali restaurant opposite the US Embassy in Warsaw (Poland) called Secret Spice. Thank you, Interviewer, I will try to import the book to Warsaw now. Thank you both. Author, you are a truly amazing storyteller.

So glad I found you Joe, I learned in college about all the political issues around the world in the aftermath of WWII. (and that political and military leaders don't learn from history) Thanks making this context easy to understand hope you get more likes.

Great Interview - Good Conversation & Loads of important history...what more do you want in an excellent podcast!

Fantastic interview. Appreciate it as a Bangladeshi

Hi Joe, I like the way you get answers out of the people you interview. You create a nice flow

Sounds like the devastation in the Philippines in typhoon Yolanda. Whole islands stripped clean.

You look good Joe. Thanks for posting.

40:17 My mom's grandfather was a politician back then. He belonged to a party opposing Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. Despite that the entire clan ended up voting for Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. That's how unifying the callous maliciousness of the West Pakistani regime was!

Just coming back from Nebula and wanted to say thank you for this piece. It was truly a fascinating topic I never heard. Do want to comment in the nebula platform if it was possible.

I remember the Bangladesh war, that it was HORRIBLE. It was in the news in the USA. But people so quickly forget.

I have a tshirt that says Talk Nerdy To Me. Came here from the main channel. I was eleven years old, so 5th grade, when the storm happened. I don't remember that part. I do remember the famine, it was taught by the social activist nuns at school. I vaguely remember Bangladesh becoming independent. Oddly enough, I came from Galveston and learned about The 1900 Great Storm, and the book Isaac's Storm: The Man, The Time, and The Deadliest Storm In History. Published in 2000. Wow. So much. I would not exist if not for the 1900 storm in Galveston, great grandparents on both sides married as a result of the Galveston storm. But the book published when I was 41 completely ignores the Bhola Cyclone in it's title. Galveston lost 10,000 people. Seriously tiny compared to Bhola. Racist much, US Publishing industry?

0:00: 🌪 The Vortex is a book by Scott Carney and Jason Michael that explores the impact of the deadliest storm in history on Bangladesh, including the building of a wall by India and the potential for future conflicts. 8:56: ⛈ A devastating cyclone hits East Pakistan right before the first free and fair elections, causing widespread destruction and loss of life. 18:34: 🌀 The devastating cyclone and lack of warnings led to the deaths of thousands of people in East Pakistan. 26:53: 😢 The Bola Cyclone in 1970 caused a major human catastrophe in East Pakistan, resulting in over 500,000 deaths and exacerbated ethnic violence. 35:56: 🌪 Candy Roadie creates the largest civilian-driven Aid response in world history after a devastating storm hits the region, despite facing obstacles from the Pakistani military. 45:20: 📚 The interview discusses the atrocities committed during the Bangladesh Liberation War and the challenges in understanding and remembering such genocides. 54:40: 🌍 The tense standoff between the US and USSR during the Bangladesh Liberation War narrowly avoided nuclear Armageddon. 1:03:30: 😬 The danger of climate change is not just the physical impact, but the potential for global conflict and war due to interconnectedness and political tensions. 1:13:18: 💥 The breakdown of justice system and polarization in America can lead to violent conflict and revolution. 1:21:28: 🌐 The rise in cult-like behavior and information silos in society is a result of a fragmented society and the reification of worldviews. 1:31:32: 😮 The attention economy and social media platforms have incentivized controversial and attention-seeking behavior, leading to the devaluation of traditional media and the rise of individual influencers. 1:39:21: 📚 Scott Carney discusses the neurology of internet addiction, the fight-or-flight response, and the impact of focus on the nervous system. 1:48:00: 📚 X recommends the book 'Vortexum' and promotes his merchandise. Recap by Tammy AI

It would be so cool to see this guy write an ethnography about people like me, Indian adoptees.

The link that you have onscreen regarding your merchandise is broken 😭 I had to spend significant effort on Google to get to your merch store (and have confidence it was the official store).

Yay!!

OMG I am a nerd, I used to read the dictionary back in the 60s, I love wikipedia ...

🔥 👍

This video was a huge political wake-up call for me

Fantastic conversation! EDIT: And then it got so very "both sidesy." *sigh*

Too many humans. Not enough Planet.

Snarky, you actually called him a b*stard

Joe didn't know that Bangladesh was part of Pakistan?!!! I guess he's American and I'm old.

It sounds patently absurd in 2023 to suggest the problem with our politics is that "both sides" have an incentive to move to the extremes. If that's true why is our current President a centrist Democrat who loves working with Republicans?

I dunno how it is now, but in the 80s and 90s playboy had some serious high quality journalism.. the people writing those articles weren't as tied to the need to talk about 'marketable things' and so were more free to just write.

Interesting story, but Joe you look half asleep.

Your arguments are laughable, terrifying, and offensive.
