    I tried to read the quote at the end and gave up after tiktok automatically unpaused+restarted the video four times, I did my part. :07:

    If this person doesn't have a youtube or a podcast where they explain this stuff in a better format I feel like they're missing out, this video by itself seems like it could contain enough information to be a Blowback season or something.
