Merely skimming a video which explained all of the details in the first 3 minutes--addressing everything their comment complained about--just so they can say things that make no sense if you had spent 3 fucking minutes watching the video!

(They said they only skimmed it in a separate comment.)

That is what I call willful ignorance. That's what's wrong with social media today. People comment nonsense without knowing anything about what they're commenting on. Then other people read the stupid comments and upvote it, also without watching the video, and that's all they walk away with. "LOL Vox is dumb!"

And when they get called out, people like you defend them. And you probably didn't even watch the video either!

Yes! Willful ignorance all around. That's exactly what it is.
