      I like technology connections but no way in hell should you be advocating for people on Facebook to get their facts from youtubers.

      I love Alex, literally just watched his fan video, but you can’t act like that one video is all we need on the subject. “There’s already a video on that” doesn’t really help anyone trying to bring awareness to a massive issue

        You can’t rationally argue someone out of a position that they didn’t rationally enter in the first place.

          When somebody says “You’re wrong, watch this hour long video by a youtuber to find out why”, have you ever watched the videos they linked?

            Yes! But I’m definitely an oddball. I also read the terms of serving refuse to use services that have terms I disagree with.

              Well here’s a video I didn’t watch about why you’re wrong.

                I happen to have seen that one before. It’s very layered … like an onion.

          Of course you can. It just takes patience.

          It’s literally what psychologists do for a living

      Don’t worry, they’ll find something on YouTube that’ll confirm their bias. They won’t watch a 1.5h video though.
