Youtube Video Responses to my Videos

Post by TheVeganAtheist »

I periodically look to see if any youtuber responds to my videos in video format...

Anyone seen this response: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uVVYayKy5w

I think if I wasn't already going to address TheAmazingAtheist's responses in a future video, I might have done a video responding to this guy, but I'm not sure its worth my time. What do you think?

I don't think he is really worth your time, let alone anyone else's.
We are all born Atheists, everyone of us. We are born without the Shackles of theism arresting our minds. It is not until we are poisoned by the fears and delusions of others that we become trapped in the psychopathic dream world of theism.

That video is a disgrace to the skeptic community, I couldn't even finish watching it; I tried, but no, it gives me a headache.
I'm not sure if you should make a video response, giving him attention he doesn't deserve.
Focusing your time on something else is probably better.

I agree, don't give him any attention. It just seems like someone who hasn't yet understood the other side very well.

His video was quite long, but he made a few arguments that may be worth addressing- for example, his concept of "rights".
He seems to be more intelligent than TJ, and he will probably respond to you.

He also admitted in the video that we "should" do things we don't do. Which is really the whole point of veganism.

We should willingly limit our own population and resource use so we can have better lives, and the same should be true for animals (that we shouldn't breed them into misery).

That we don't do it because of human irrationality isn't an argument against suggesting people consider starting to do it.


Also, I have to wonder if there's a vegan somewhere near him who would take him up on his challenge to a fight.

I have seen his video's on feminism and I don't care for him. I think he earnestly believes what he is saying, but his sarcasm is just a way to brush off any valid points made. I don't think you will get anywhere with him, but I suppose anyone following the responses might get something out of it. Unfortunately demagogues often win the public over more and I don't think any of his subscribers will change their minds. Ultimately he is small potatoes and maybe not worth the amount of prep you probably spend making your videos. If you do respond it might add to the number of people that find his videos so that could be a bad thing.

Yes! I almost did one myself, his response was so dismissive.

He's dishonest and doesn't care about any logical arguments. When i called him out on his bad rights argument he resorted to insulting.
