Did anyone actually watch the video? Like I’m sure as shit not, but wondering if anyone else did. Guessing no scrolling through the comments.
How about if normalized not fucking linking YouTube videos for topics that seem like news?
I will read an article but I'm not going to click through and watch some random ass length video from some random ass "content creator" who probably has a worthless opinion to begin with.
Amen. I don’t even want to watch a news video over an article let alone some rando 18min YouTube video.

Pure garbage... Won't even usually click it if I notice.
Yup. I'm subbed to the handful I find worthwhile, so just give me text for the rest.
Also I'm not going to always be in a position where I can just have my phone start playing video with audio. And I'm not going to get my headphones out of my bag just so I can listen to a video that I probably am not actually that interested in.
I wish people would just post synopses.
