  • I don’t mind skepticism…

    But it doesn’t help your case when you don’t know what continent Mexico is in. They are seriously the most uniformed humans on line.

  • Hey bros. Please use primary sources at every opportunity. Something like "I didn't watch/read the [films/docs], but here's my full throated assertion of the creator based on what I didn't verify- Let's go with what someone who abhors him says instead" doesn't give me any confidence you understand your chosen episode topic. Think outside of the divide & conquer/red VS blue paradigm.

    Both/more sides to compliment "research"=never bad.

    I want to like you.

    Niles understands more than letting on.
