We will have to agree to disagree perhaps I am plugged into and watching this way too closely
I watched the video and stumbled across their videos before FWIW. In your video he goes over the same information twice all with repetitive video game graphics. I get it some people love that stuff, to each their own.
In this video, he covered incidents that were on https://israelpalestine.liveuamap.com/and the Defender Dome Discord channel Times of Gaza, Jerusalem Post etc.
It wasn't new information, you can look a previous reports on liveuamap, again nothing wrong with it, but it's just an amalgamation of news put on a video with a catchy title, it isn't supposed to be up to the minute
.
Then there's people like me. I'd never heard of "liveuamap" before this post, and was unaware of their coverage. I have an "X" account, but have never figured out how it's used to get "news". It's basically entirely useless to me unless someone else finds the information. Discord is a psychedelic freakout from where I stand - it moves faster than i can read, so I can't keep up and be informed from it, even if I had a clue how to use it. I've tried, twice,and admitted defeat both times.
YouTube I can figure out. I can navigate it. Granted, lately since they banned me from YouTube I've had to figure out alternate means of connection to it, but it's still my go-to for information. Were it not for folks like Raptor offering these news and event compendiums on YouTube, I'd be better off fishing... I mean REALLY fishing, with a rod, reel and hook on a riverbank far away from information sources. My old , curmudgeonly ass would be entirely lost and unable to keep up, so I'd be better off not even trying.
So, I reckon I can put up with "clickbait" titles - and I've seen much, much worse than his, titles that are clickbait with no relationship to the contents of the videos - in order to keep up with events in a gathered-up and digestible form.
It takes all kinds in this world, and this is just more evidence that there is something for everyone, if someone knows where to point them towards.
