I really hope you find this interesting, but please note this is a heavily dramatized analysis for effect. I do believe the topics covered are important, but obviously I do not actually think we should doubt everything. This video is NOT suggesting you should abandon all your beliefs, it’s a reminder to be aware of the biases we all have, so we can try to make better choices. I think it's healthy to question things, and that includes this video.

~~~ Important Extra Points ~~~
1. The video is best watched as a whole, as it is supposed to be a “journey” that starts off by exploring surface level topics like fake news, but then begins to descend deeper and deeper into the lies, until we’re left questioning everything.

2. This video is clearly more cynical than some of my other content. That’s partially because I think this ‘dark documentary’ vibe is interesting/unique and something I want to explore more of, but it’s also because I truly believe there is a major problem in our society right now, where lies spread so quickly and easily. Whilst these concepts may be nothing new to you, I hope it at least makes us all stop to question things slightly more. That said, obviously I do not actually think we should doubt literally everything, and no I don’t think all of the media is evil or that we are just brains in vats. My point was that the things we believe to be certain are not necessarily certain. This doesn’t mean we should stop believing in everything, it’s simply a reminder to be aware of the biases we all have, so we can try to make better choices.

3. I briefly use a Pewdiepie clip and imply portions of the media twisted things to demonize him. I know a small minority may think I am ‘defending anti-Semitism’ so I just want to clarify I am NOT at all. My point (which hopefully the vast majority would agree with) is that Pewdiepie is not a Nazi-sympathiser, and yet sections of the media portrayed him that way, so I felt it was a good example of how the media can present such a one-sided narrative.

4. Near the beginning I say the term ‘fake news’ originated in 2016. I'm not saying fake news didn’t exist prior to that, what I mean is it became a mainstream expression around that time (largely thanks to the Malaysian fake news sites mentioned). I also want to stress this video is not partisan at all. Yes, the term ‘fake news’ has become more politicized recently, but it is not a right or left issue, it’s an ‘everyone’ issue.

==== What Is This Video About? =======
We begin by covering fake news, and considering how the media can manipulate information. This includes half-truths and biased reporting. We address how the media is still a business, which is why we have seen the rise of clickbait articles trying to capture your attention.

However, we also consider how our own biases impacts how we interpret not just news, but all information. We consider how we all have psychological biases such as confirmation bias, that distort the news and information we hear.

Towards the end, we even start to question reality itself - and explore ideas like solipsism and The Mandela effect. Whilst some of these ideas are extreme, questioning information we hear (from all sides), can often be healthy. This video does not really mean you should never believe in anything, it simply means it's healthy to seek out the other side of the argument, before rushing to conclusions. And of course, it's also healthy to be aware of our own biases that our minds have. I hope you enjoy.

When you start to question what's actually real, everything starts to unravel.

No one is more hated than he who tells the truth.

Finally someone really understands my current dilemma. I thought when I stopped watching the news, things would be better. But this is everywhere. It seems the only way to avoid the lies is to be a hermit, and on my most difficult days, these unending questions of what’s the truth vs the lies in everything just gets to me...I am tired of having questions I can’t find answers. And my anxiety doesn’t make things easier when my moments of existential crisis kicks in. This video has given me some comfort in knowing that I am not alone. And no, I’m not losing my mind, although it would be nice to go over these ending-less thoughts with like minded people . I wish I was still naive about everything sometimes, it was truly blissful .

This video is the first time I've felt like someone sees reality the way I do and how strange everything is so connected and yet unhinged

Personal takeaways from this video:
1. The answers we want are in us, we just have to look for them.
2.The more detached you are from the world, the less the absurdity affects you.
3. Stop using social media.

[SoldierproGAMING]

There is a real reason why these kind of channels are not getting enough exposure, and its not their lack of content that's for sure, keep it up!

[kennethsmith]

Ya'll nailed it, it's ridiculous, pathetic and in our face every minute of every day

[kaleno]

Honestly I stumbled upon your channel by accident, I searched something wrong. But then after watching a few of ur videos and saw how u actually spoke the truth of things people didn’t even know about. Then after watching this video I realized you’re not controlled by the chain and hammers, you actually see the “reality”… you’ve got yourself a loyal subscriber💯

[mrsandoval]

People think I’m crazy for asking these types of questions. It’s refreshing to know I’m not the only one questioning absolutely everything. What is real? What is truth?

[欧清波]

Mad respect dude!!! It takes guts to talk about these things.

[TimotheeLee]

I have a simple rule: if it's in the corporate media, it's a lie. So far so good.

[needlesandsonics]

I started questioning everything during the pandemic when nothing was making any sense. I disconnected from social media and all news.

Seriously, now I see things more clearly. I can see what’s happening around me and how people are being strung along. Toxicity is everywhere. Everyone picks sides like it’s a game. And people make no sense when they speak. They lack logic and reasoning. They strike out angrily if you question what they believe.

We’ve all been played. It’s easier to fool someone than to convince them that they’ve been fooled.

If you don’t have all the information, you aren’t making logical arguments.

This deserves millions of views. Insane quality video. I love the editing.

[spadesofalife]

I always try my best to seek out information even if it dosen't align with my beliefs so I can get an even bigger picture than what I had before

[joemapula]

That is my phrase " everything is a Lie " especially if it's coming from the mainstream media.

Which part did you find most interesting? 🤔 Would love to hear your feedback so I can keep improving!

"the truth was born inside you" This became very apparent to me when I was at my witts end and took off on a motorcycle trip solo. After a couple months I came home and everything around me had changed (ok maybe not surprising) but changed for the better and all I did was nothing. What I realized is that for that 2 months I stopped creating opinions, I stopped judging, all I did was observe the world around me and made decisions to tend to my most basic needs. This was not obvious to me for a long time once I was back at home. I would spend many nights out on my deck contemplating what happened when one night it hit me, everything I perceive with my scenes and compute with my mind is corrupted, therefore can not be trusted. It's important to understand that corruption starts the first time you misinterpret something with your senses, because that becomes the filter you use for the next frame of reference. I will tell you after that night shit got crazy, what was going on inside my mind was enough to get anyone committed! I held strongly to the idea that I was in no position to draw conclusions or judge even my own mind and soon it passed. The peace that is left has no description.

[fastrack]

Finally!!! Someone who thinks like me!!! I'm glad to know I'm not alone and called crazy for nothing. Thank you sir.

This video is way too underrated. This has been on my mind for a while, what do we do when the majority of people don’t care when only a few of us do?
