I've said before that V*ush is what you get when you outsource your own self-education to a streamer/influencer.
Self-education through reading is hard and slow. Watchimg a YouTube video, following someone on Twitter, or putting a stream on in the background is easy. Its instant gratification versus the long haul.
You're self-aware about how little you actually know about most things. Very, very few people are like that. Most people who loudly and confidently make their Opinions known are idiots who make up for a real lack of knowledge with supreme self-comfidence in their own innate intelligence. And it can be very easy to believe them if you aren't consciously self-motivated to learn things the hard way.

:yea:
There are just as many terrible opinions in books as there are on Twitch.
If video, or live presentation, even in the background, gets you to take in info, go for it. Just be careful about what you spend your time taking in.
