One ninety-second video gave you a whole worldview? That’s a sample, not a semester.

REFLECTION

WHAT THIS MEANS

A short clip can only carry a conclusion, never the work behind it. What feels like understanding after ninety seconds is the pleasant sensation of a claim that fit neatly, and fitting neatly is exactly what a well-edited clip is built to do. You now hold a position you could not defend and did not have to earn.

When something short convinces you, treat it as a lead rather than a finding. Go read one longer thing by someone who disagrees. If the position still holds after that, it is starting to be yours.
