    It doesn’t have to make sense, just give a sense of confirmation to viewers that already sit in or near his ideological camp.

      It feels like listening to a baby atheist trying to debunk Islam because they read 1/3 of a Dawkins book. What they lack in knowledge they make up for in the pretense of certainty.

      I watched a little more and now he just quibbled about the difference between US funds and weapons "ending up" with Nazis vs the US funding Nazis, with the debunk being a hypothetical about Nazi Germany. He never contends with what the articles say nor the fact that the US has specifically targeted support to Nazi groups. Just moves on after the hypothetical. When calling it out, he basically did the :reddit-logo: fallacy citation thing too, lol.

      I'm impressed that there are so many dum-dums out there who take this seriously.

        What, like a hypothetical reality where we didn't put them all right back into power after they had done the holocaust? This fucking dog brain

        I was that atheist, when I was 14. I did the thing where you keep learning stuff after that age.
