That's not irony, that's hypocrisy.
Their source is better than your source. They at least indicated that it was word-of-mouth and didn't try and present it as anything but that.
Maybe my communication was poor. Or maybe we have different definitions of hypocrisy. I never meant to claim my info to be of higher trustworthiness. Had I meant to do that I would have dug up my source, which would have been easy to do. Without source I'm just a rando commenting and I just wanted to highlight the humor in sourcing specifically "some youtuber", which is the go-to source for crackpot theories (not YouTube, but poorly defined unknown random person on YouTube). My intention was not to be the bringer of the truth. I apologize for any confusion.
