It's okay, there were weird takes about 9/11 when 9/11 was fresh in our minds too.

This is pretty much my experience when watching an episode of Adam Ruins Everything. Remember when we thought that show was actually right about stuff?

We really need a movement to debunk the debunkers

It can have half truths but it's really hard to be factual when trying to sell a show. Adam is a comedian and an entertainer so any information that can be snagged regardless of validity serves the objective.

It's typically really hard to keep people engaged when you are trying to give neuace and data that's not as conclusive as we want. Hell, I'm trying to be as objective as possible in this and it's boring me.

Sorry, what? When did we all collectively come to understand that Adam Ruins Everything is balderdash? What did I miss?

hbomberguy recently had a video that "ruins" Youtubers who have been very successful from educational videos while using blatant plagiarism. It's 4 hours long but it's very engaging and might be something you enjoy.

My friend says it's fake or something because the other 2 planes don't have video evidence.

What I've noticed is people who think that various 90s bands were from the 80s, or vice versa.
