          No but seriously I am working on the Black Mesa video and general shitposting it’s just taking a while and I wanted to put something out that I already had a lotta notes and footage for in the interim.

          Great source you got there.

            Have you actually watched the video? Or only like the first minute of it?

            You would not be saying this bullshit if you actually watched the video, its incredibly well researched. (Fucking hell, the dude says before your quote that he has been researching this for a couple of years)

              Oh the youtuber says he’s researched it? Must be true then. Why would anyone lie on the internet for clicks?

              Look, I’m not saying the information in the video is wrong, I’m saying this source is total crap and I won’t even watch it because it has next to zero information value. A homeless guy might happen to give you correct advice on how to deal with a mortgage or something, but you’d be a fool to come to him to ask.

                Yeah no fucking shit you didn’t watch it, given the video contains sources for the RESEARCH PAPERS that talk about this topic

                Stop being so fucking smug about shit you haven’t even watched. I don’t trust the youtuber because he said it, I trust him because he properly sources his stuff and has a history of doing the same in every project he has done. Unlike you who has no sources, is smug while being stupid as hell and dismisses a video based on a joke in its description.

                  b-but a YouTuber said it so it can’t possibly be credible!!

                    For real. A guy could recite a scientific study word-for-word and upload it on youtube and this mfer would think its not credible

                How is that even remotely the same thing? This is the dumbest fucking take coming from someone that didn’t watch the video to see whether there were credible sources provided

      She want taught an existing form of sign language, she was taught a never explained version of signing, which only the people who worked with her knew, and this was never documented in any scientific way for peer review, and the results weren’t reproducable with other gorilla’s or other researchers.

      Best case scenarios, the humans involved anthropomorphized the gorilla, and thought they were communicating on a level much higher than they were actually communicating on, do to this.

      Worst case, there were lying knowingly, and this was some sort of scam for money.
