Balancing the newly created/replaced sounds. They were too loud in the previous video, but now, I think they are too quiet.

I honestly don't understand the whole "nukes are fake" conspiracy theory. It sounds even dumber than flat earth.
Seriously, how can they cover up Hiroshima and Nagasaki if those explosions were fake. People who were near the alleged blast zones would've called bullshit on it.
Now I am open to the idea that the technology hasn't improved much (if at all) since those two bombs, and the threat of nuclear war is just a psyop to get everyone to accept the idea of a one world government as the only solution to save humanity from itself. Shit like the Doomsday Clock looks like fearmongering for that exact purpose, but to suggest that nuclear bombs have never existed is a bit of a stretch.
The Big Bang theory, began with Friedmann in 1922. In 1929, the universe’s expansion was observed, but by 1933, the theory’s predicted age for the universe was found to be incorrect. Rather than accepting an older, burned-out universe, proponents introduced the concept of invisible “dark matter” to account for discrepancies.
In the 1970s, the Big Bang theory failed to predict the correct abundance of light elements-a discrepancy known as the lithium problem-which some see as evidence against the theory. Instead of admitting defeat, these issues are labeled as “problems” to avoid abandoning the theory.
In 1997, distant supernovae were found to be too faint, contradicting Big Bang predictions. This led to the invention of “dark energy” as another adjustable parameter. Critics argue that adding such parameters undermines scientific rigor.
By 2003, measurements showed the universe is extremely flat, a result so unlikely by chance that it prompted the addition of “inflation theory,” itself reliant on free parameters. In 2019, the “Hubble tension” emerged, further challenging the theory. Additionally, the ages of stars, especially white dwarfs, seem inconsistent with Big Bang predictions.
Big Bang theory continually adds unverifiable elements to address its failures, moving further from the scientific method.
A 7 May 2025 paper suggests the cosmic microwave background (CMB), long thought to be a relic of the Big Bang, could instead come from early, massive galaxies whose radiation, processed by dust and redshifted, matches the CMB signal. This challenges the foundation of modern cosmology, creating a circular logic where fixes for early galaxy formation also explain the CMB, potentially unraveling the Big Bang model if the CMB isn’t primordial.

Replaced the "key get" sound effect. Now, I think I have all placeholders removed.

There was an article of a future America as a neo Holy Roman Empire, complete with autonomous Imperial Free Cities and such.

Ohh city states might just be an even grander idea, but we will probably need to start by focusing on the great national governments of the world to diminish and dismantle the biggest threats to the world. Then focus on city states. And finally individuals as the best governments are the ones in the individuals own control.
