All Republicans are Nazis.
All Nazis must hang.
Therefore, should all Republicans be hanged?

Do police actually solve crimes at all? Or are they basically doing legwork for prosecutors by gathering evidence to be used to prove a suspect's guilt (when the cops don't just summarily execute the suspect for being poor or black) or scare them into pleading guilty for a lesser sentence?
anon definitely didn't think this shit through
So, he's a deadbeat dad and a Nazi. I bet he thinks he's manly as fuck.
So does tone not enhance your learning experience in any way?
No. Tone is generally irrelevant, especially when I'm reading technical documentation. Having a manual page for a UNIX system function read to me isn't helpful. If it's read by a man, it'll bore me. If it's read by a woman, and she sounds attractive, I'll be thinking about disappointing her in bed instead of keeping my mind on the job.
Also listening is a lot less effort and can be done passively while for me reading requires a lot more of a conscious effort.
You might find that a point in favor of listening, but I find that conscious effort that reading entails improves retention. There's are reasons we have idioms like "in one ear, out the other", and I'm one of them. Besides, and as I mentioned before, audio and video are shit for reference. You can't grep audio and video and search by keywords. Audio and video generally don't come with indexes where keywords are connected to timestamps for easy access to relevant sections.
Yes, thanks for telling me something I've known for years. I only care about tone when talking to actual human beings in person. When I want to learn something, I want it in plain text.
Yeah, TikTok can fuck off, too; it's tankieware.
Seriously, though, my beef isn't with you. It's with people who would rather make a video than just write a damn blog post or article. If I had ever stuck around on Reddit for more than 30 days, I'd also be in r/menslib giving people shit for posting audio and video instead of plain text.
11+ minutes of this dude talking? This video could have been a blog post.
Why do it? For the same reason Mt. Everest is littered with human corpses, shit, and garbage. For the same reason there's an American flag and a plaque immortalizing Richard fucking Nixon on the goddamned moon.
Because it's there.
