>I don't remember them saying that. I do remember them showing US political and financial involvement in Ukraine.

They intentionally leaves out sources they claim to have, they cut crucial parts of video evidence (such as Joe Biden's statement, which changes the entire statement)

There's tons more:

>Someone didn't get the humor and sarcasm I guess.

By that logic then I guess glazing Nazi Germany is fine because it's just sarcasm & joke bro.

You need to understand that not everyone shares your addiction to YT's dopamine-jerking content feeds. In any case, no one has time to dig through that video to find whatever "evidence" you think is buried there.

I can't help it if you can't watch a video without feeling as if it's meant to be some "dopamine rush" for you, that's a you problem.

It does not in any way shape or form discard it from being evidence.

Especially when I specifically pointed out 2 issues with the boyboy video, which I assume you also haven't watched (or does boyboy somehow get a pass?) which then begs the question of why you're even replying.

It just seemed weird that you thought nothing of pointing to a 48 minute video about mostly unrelated topics, as if anyone would actually fish through all that to get to the nuggets of pertinent information that you're suggesting are buried in there somewhere.
