Well, I am not the best at collating thoughts and verbalizing them in an apropos order. So, maybe you are right and this does not tie together very well. But, that certainly does not make my argument any less academic or valid. On the other hand, can you tell me in what ways, specifically, this is reminiscent of propaganda? Are any of my facts incorrect or ill supported? If so, which ones? Is any of my reasoning misleading? If so, at what point?-
@elegantlywasted1000 The only reason I can find for you saying that this sounds like propaganda and is not academic is simply that you do not want to believe what I have to say is true. Or, rather, that you have already decided that it is untrue and are not open minded to an argument suggesting otherwise. Kind of like, for example, how Republicans call any study demonstrating global warming propaganda. They have already decided global warming does not exist, so any evidence to the contrary-
@elegantlywasted1000 They call propaganda. Now maybe I am wrong and this is not what you are doing, and that is why I am asking for more specific criticisms. On a related note, did you view the second half of this video?

You can hardly call this academic, it does hang together and sounds more like propaganda.
