      videos that mention data i could look up is exactly what i’m talking about…
      gimme the data, not some schmoo talking about how they misunderstand some data….
      there are infinite, strongly opinionated, youtube videos for every conclusion that inaccurately represents some sort of data….

        By that logic any article from a news distributor is garbage. Which while true, you can find the original story from a new wire. Sourcing points is key but having someone write a table of authorities when they can link a video with their thoughts and data is fine

          Nope, if it’s a youtube video then it’s garbage on youtube that I’m not gonna watch. A link to a reputable news organization’s website says a hell of a lot more about its credibility, every time.
