I thought it was important I share this video TL;DR, the YouTuber, just recently put out about the numerous false equivalences, contradictions, and blatant falsities on display in a recent Extra Credit's video on YouTube. I 100% agree with his reasoning, and I honestly think Extra Credits damaged their reputation in a non-repairable way by creating such a video.

If you want to watch the original Extra Credits video, although TL;DR covers the full extent of it in his video, you can watch it below. If you go to the YouTube page for it, it currently has an upvote-downvote ration of 12k upvotes and 159k downvotes, because I guess people don't really like hearing neo-progressive historical revisionism, moral authoritarianism, and collective guilt shoved down their throats! Though I'm sure the video creators just think all of those down votes are "Tha Natzies," as I doubt they are capable of introspection after that kind of video...

(Upvoted myself to try and keep this comment near the top. Wish there was a way to pin comments in posts. @Steempeak, can that be a featured added soon so I don't have to upvote myself to keep comments at the top?)
