Reddit thread from two days ago.
Edit: I now understand the faux pas of linking a reddit thread on Lemmy. I merely wanted to provide the background that Rossman himself links in his video description. Personally, I can’t be arsed watching an op-ed video if there is a text discussion available. Different strokes I guess.
On another level, I wanted to point out that the way news travel to Lemmy is apparently more circuitous than to Reddit. If we have to wait for stuff to filter down through other channels to here, then Lemmy becomes irrelevant as a news source.
I don’t offer a solution, I can only point out that in this particular case we’re two days behind the source debate, and discussing a YouTube rando’s take rather than the meat and potatoes of it.
Get out of here, redditor.
I see my mistake, I just look for original sources rather than fucking youtubers.
Stop acting like a redditor.
