Never had this happen to me and I'm getting older. Maybe someday.

If someone's take on 9/11 doesn't go back to at least the early 1980s, it's probably not worth taking too seriously. It didn't start on 9/11, that's just the date millions of people were forced into hearing about the messy and complex conflicts. A witness on ground zero doesn't become a 9/11 expert.

The 4th season of the podcast Blowback does an excellent job of covering the background, both within and beyond the borders of Pakistan and Afghanistan. I highly recommend it.

This is pretty much my experience when watching an episode of Adam Ruins Everything. Remember when we thought that show was actually right about stuff?

We really need a movement to debunk the debunkers

Sorry, what? When did we all collectively come to understand that Adam Ruins Everything is balderdash? What did I miss?

hbomberguy recently had a video that "ruins" Youtubers who have been very successful from educational videos while using blatant plagiarism. It's 4 hours long but it's very engaging and might be something you enjoy.

My friend says it's fake or something because the other 2 planes don't have video evidence.

What I've noticed is people who think that various 90s bands were from the 80s, or vice versa.
