    So, someone just sent me a three and a half hour antivax video from a crank interviewing other cranks and asked me to deconstruct it. Unfortunately, that would be a very inefficient use of my time. 1/

        People, I appreciate that you think I can handle anything, but I'm not watching a three and a half hour video of anything unless it's one of the Lord of the Rings movies or The Great Escape or some other long classic movie that I love. 2/2

        Back when I had a blog I watched (and blogged about) the insanely terrible movie, "What the Bleep Do We Know?" I should have spent that time doing almost literally anything else.

        you can debunk this by the fact that it is a video somewhere on the internet. practically the furthest removed from anything peer-reviewed anything can be.

        I feel like this is a new theme… make videos longer with as many inaccurate and wild conspiracies as possible in order to waste time and/or make it impossible to fact check everything

        Absolutely @CT_Bergstrom theorizes this as one of the functions of making lies into bullshit.

        As I said, after watching a 45 minute “Bill Gates wants to implant something in your arm” YouTube - that’s 45 minutes of life I’ll never get back.

        Let me guess: It said that India was doing very well because of Ivermectin?
