I mean, maybe check the sources yourself, they're pretty clearly linked and nicely arranged in a doc for you right under the video if you've been living under a rock and unfamiliar with the creator or have some healthy doubts about the validity of the claims presented?

Maybe it's better than pure dismissal out of your own ignorance.

It's astounding that here I am being humble enough to link a good explainer on the topic rather than being arrogant enough to link the primary sources as if I'm an expert on the subject capable of fully interpreting multiple papers, and here you are, dismissing one of the most well-respected science communicators on the planet today as a "YouTube cartoon".

Is this why we live in a post-truth world now, where folks with zero media literacy or critical thinking ability, think there is no difference between this and PragerU or between The Sun and The Guardian or Lemmy and Twitter? It's all just "cartoons" or "news" innit? All just "opinions" and "views". All just "politics bollocks" and "social media" and "content".

And yeah I am strawmanning and projecting and whatnot, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong, it is not how fallacies work.

No wonder the country is in the fucking gutter.

P.S.

I've not had such problems any time recent, thank you very much Mr. Ad Hominem.
