A Skeptical Human
DEBUNKED: Humans Are NOT Causing Global Warming!
updated
1) Will sharks die if they stop moving forward? Do all sharks need to continually swim in order to oxygenate their gills? How does shark respiration work in species like the great white shark, hammerhead shark, bull shark, and other common species? 2) Do sharks sleep? How do their resting periods compare against sleep in humans? 3) Are sharks immune to cancer and other illnesses? Do sharks ever get cancer, tumors or other forms of disease? 4) Do shark fins have magical, curative properties? Are any of the alternative medicine beliefs about sharks justified? Or are these shark-based remedies pure pseudoscience? What harm results from these myths about sharks (such as shark finning?) What does the science say about these shark beliefs? 5) Does Megalodon still exist? Have there been any confirmed Megalodon sightings or video recordings or photographs? Or has it gone extinct? What do the shark experts tell us?
6) How dangerous are sharks? How many shark attacks are there per year? By comparison, how many sharks get captured by humans each year? Is the danger of sharks overblown and exaggerated? Does the media make us afraid of sharks based upon sensationalist reporting? Do movies like Jaws and television documentary shows during Shark Week contribute to these myths? Should we be scared of sharks? How likely are you to be killed in a shark attack, vs other things like lightning strikes or falling coconuts? Do sharks confuse humans (including surfers and swimmers) with typical prey animals like seals or sea turtles? Are shark attacks on humans sometimes mistakes on their part? What are the facts and statistics about shark attacks on humans? 7) Are sharks harmless? Are they extremely dangerous and terrifying predators? Is the truth somewhere in the middle? Does this depend upon the size and species of shark? Can we safely swim in the ocean surrounded by the largest and most aggressive sharks and expect not to get attacked or bitten? Or do some people downplay how dangerous sharks truly are?
These are: The biggest shark myths of all time!

It's explained here that conservatives are wrong about the economics in these nations. This is a rebuttal that should be made against right wingers in any Democrat vs Republican debate where this claim is made. If you enjoy watching conservatives getting owned and destroyed, this video is for you!
Conservatives like Ben Shapiro, Steven Crowder, Candace Owens, and Charlie Kirk make points of this sort often. They scoff at the idea of implementing left wing ideas like they're something out of a fairy tale world. News flash to them and other Republicans: These policies are actually the norm in other countries around the world! Look at the social democracies of Europe, for example, and Scandinavia. These are facts you won't learn from watching Fox News or reading The Daily Wire, but they are facts nonetheless.
Making this claim is a Republican self-own, because it demonstrates how ignorant they are about the reality in other countries. Many of these same nations also consistently rank at the top of the World Happiness Index, debunking the claim that they're living inside of grueling, unbearable socialist governments.
Who is this video for? Viewers of The David Pakman Show, The Kyle Kulinski Show, The Majority Report with Sam Seder, and The Young Turks (with Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, & John Iadarola) will love this video & the content on this YouTube channel!

Ben Shapiro is wrong about gun control. This full, long-form video evaluates and debunks many flawed arguments that he makes on this subject. These are arguments you'll hear him make in debates, in interviews, in viral videos, and in episodes of The Daily Wire.
Shapiro claims that the core purpose of the 2nd Amendment is to protect against "government tyranny." Republicans are living in fantasy-land when they make this argument, because the weapons available to everyday Americans would be no match for our heavily equipped military. Also, who's to say what "government tyranny" is? What criteria do we use?
Doesn't this open the door to armed resistance against any governmental policy deemed "tyrannical"—no matter how trivial or ridiculous the policy? What moral grounds would Republicans like Shapiro have to oppose such actions—given that these people would be using the exact same logic as him? His logic, when accepted by people further to the right of him, can actually be quite dangerous.
Ben Shapiro also sometimes makes ridiculous strawman arguments on this subject, sometimes sprinkling in a few terrible analogies while he's at it. Not only that, but when pressed on specific gun control proposals, Shapiro is actually quite supportive of many of these—raising the question: "Why not work together to reduce gun violence, if we share these goals and agree on these policies, vs trying to 'own the libs' on this subject?"
Shapiro will sometimes use misleading statistics, facts, and graphs to make his case on this subject. One example is using certain poorly-chosen metrics to make it appear like gun ownership doesn't correlate with increased gun violence. The fact of the matter is, when you use the appropriate measurements, and look at the data as a whole, it becomes very clear that gun control works to reduce gun violence. A cost-benefit analysis supports the conclusion that stricter gun control laws would help to save lives.

Steven Crowder is wrong about transgenderism. He makes a variety of silly arguments on the subject that revolve around transgender bathroom laws. He also tries to "own the libs" on this subject by crossdressing, apparently thinking that dressing as a woman somehow proves some kind of point. Here I evaluate and debunk several of his arguments on this subject, providing facts, data, and scientific research to back up my points and rebuttals.
Topics covered include the "locker room" argument, the "bathroom" argument, as well as transgender biology and psychology—plus the classic "facts versus feelings" framing that Republicans like Steven Crowder and Ben Shapiro like to put on this subject. I examine his Louder With Crowder debate against a transgender mayor on the subject, and talk about the absurdity of trying to enforce these right-wing viewpoints on this subject.
The case I make is that: Equal rights for transgenderism, and accepting the validity of their internal experience, is the way to go. The medical and psychological community accepts transgenderism as a valid, healthy mental state for these individuals—despite the false conservative claim that transgenderism is a "mental illness" or indicative of "delusions." Supporting the Republican policies in this area would actually have the reverse effect of what they intend. All of that, plus a healthy dose of occasionally funny jokes and humor sprinkled in throughout the video. Enjoy!—and don't forget to subscribe and share the video if you liked it.

Ben Shapiro is wrong about transgenderism. We're led to believe that he "destroys" liberals on this subject—in debates, in lectures, or during Q&A sessions. Some of his "best arguments" and most viral moments feature him "owning" leftists on this topic with "facts & logic." In reality, his views on transgenderism are deeply misguided and severely flawed in many important ways. This is one subject where Ben Shapiro puts his feelings over the facts.

--Is privatization and the free market superior to government-run regulatory agencies?

Opponents of M4A dishonestly talk as if the program would take healthcare away from people rather than providing all Americans with comprehensive care. Tethering healthcare to employment keeps people in jobs that they hate, and union contracts that sacrificed wages for healthcare benefits can simply be renegotiated once M4A becomes law.
