      I’m not taking a side in this, but I will point out saying “please educate yourself” while linking to a random YouTube video is pretty reminiscent of COVID deniers, antivaxers, and conspiracy theorists. YouTube isn’t a respectable source and the statement itself has been poisoned when used in that way.

      I’m not sure what would work for everyone of course, and some people won’t be convinced either way, but linking to multiple varied sources, preferably trustworthy ones, may help your argument.

      Yeah no I’m not sitting through a 2 hour biased documentary over the stance of “cheese is ok actually”.
