Is Trump a Liar or a 'Straight Talker'? | Louder with Crowder
"Lowder with Crowder" is a pretty good show on YouTube. I don't always agree. I probably agree only half of the time.
I think they have a point: Trump appeals to people because he says the things they really think. However I disagree that with them about Trump being racist. He's blatantly racist but in order to see it you may have to know what it's like to be targeted. If you have never experiences his brand of racism, you may not know it's racism and because it's so close to the heart of what America and it;s institutions are at the core. He isn't the kind of racist that wears and a white sheet and a hood, but the kind that hoards and protect their privileges all the while believing you don't deserve to have what they have although they didn't earn it either.
A lot of older Black people who have lived a while have said to me that they recognize the kind of Racist that Trump is. For example, Samuel Jackson said that. I agree with them.

What Happened at the Council of Nicaea?
Credit where credit is due: Although an atheist channel does not believe in the Deity of Jesus, at least they get the historical facts correct and this video was also very light on drawing any conclusions but instead focused on what happened not who was right.

Atheist Scientist tries to challenge Ravi Zacharias, INSTANTLY REGRETS IT!
Ravi Zacharias shuts down an Atheist scientist by bypassing his question regarding Human Free Will and God's Sovereignty and attacked the real problems with his worldview. He pointed out that the Bible has not been disproved by science and further arguing that determinism is just as much a controversy in science as it is in Christianity. Dr Zacharias does not agree that our world is deterministic and I have a more compatibilistic view of Free Will. It seems to me that we do make decisions and do what we want but God does break in and changes things in our wills directly or indirectly if he wants to accomplish what he wants to do.

Dave Chappelle Slams Abortion! (Sticks and Stones)
David Wood recently posted a video regarding a recent argument Dave Chappelle makes. I like this argument.
If a woman has the right to end a pregnancy in an abortion, why doesn't a man have the right to abandon his children and not be obligated to financially support? It's a good question. But Dr Wood asks if Chappelle was just making a joke, purposely trolling and manipulating the audience, or if he is truly against abortion. Whatever the answer, I think it is a good question. Society is all about "equity" these days. In my opinion just like a woman does not the right to murder a child just because she is pregnant with that child, a man does not have the right to abandon a child that he helped conceived but is obligated to support and take care of that child. However if you grant the woman the right to kill her baby then you also should give the man the right to abandon it,

Losing Your Black Card Is Not a Game - Obama’s Other Daughters
This was a very funny video built on the idea that as a black person one has to prove that he/she is black enough. If you do not think enough like some arbitrary standard or don't know enough about African-American culture people joked about kicking you out of the community using the term "revoking your black card". This skit explores this idea and asks what it could be like if this was literal.

Avengers Endgame Final Battle - 16 Bit Scenes
I love the new examples of pixel art on the Internet. This one is a shot-for-shot remake of the final battle.
Infinity Snap in real time. With Hawkeye family. Endgame, Infinity War, ...
Here is great example of good video editing. The endings of Infinity War and Ant-man and the Wasp, as well as the beginning of Endgame are all supposed to be happening simultaneously in the narrative. Really interesting video,
