If there was truth there, I didn't get to it. That's a 30 minute video ... and within the first minute or so I saw it delve into politics. You can be more precise on what you want me to watch. Give me a timestamp and how long to watch to see the points you're trying to score on.
Please.
The entire video wasn't just delving into politics, it was a political hack job. It was a half hour rant of "hurray for me and to hell with you, because I'm right and you're wrong". The presenter was the female Left-wing equivalent of Donald Trump, and just about as factual as his "mean tweets". It would have been hilarious that she herself was oblivious to that, if it wasn't such a sad commentary on what passes for the public discourse these days.
She did make some good points in passing - "it's done by the left too, but ever so slightly and rarely... now lets get back to bashing the Right, because that political divide ain't gonna widen itself" and "This has been getting set up for a long time, and it is creating a political divide", which is objectively true... but she appears to not be able to see that she herself has bought into it, swallowed the propaganda from her side hook, line, and sinker, and is now doing her part to try to exacerbate and widen that political chasm between the opposing sides.
It's entirely unnecessary. I mean, I'm just to the Right of Attila the Hun, so far Right that I damned near wrap back around to the Left, yet I was able to sit down with a card-carrying, dyed in the wool Communist, and over a few days we hashed out a political system where I could get what I wanted, he could get what he wanted, and yet the nation could remain whole and undivided. If we could do that, then all this horse-shit, tit-for-tat political slap-fighting is just fuckin' ridiculous. It's just political theater meant not to solve any goddamned thing at all, just keep the masses entertained and at one another's throats for a distraction from what it really about to hit us ALL, both Left and Right.
