    Then how about a synopsis?

    If I know what the contents of the video are going be, then I know if it’s worth watching for some new insight; or if it’s something I’ve heard/read about already.

      exactly, not everyone has time to stop everything and watch a random 20 minute video from a thread based on essentially “trust me bro”

      especially with a vague and borderline clickbait title. To prove a point, I’m going to watch it at some point and I can almost guarantee i can either summarise it or provide a synopsis.

        I always suspect that the spytube links just farming views.

        I think I did see this one, some good research there. Specifically focusing how “suburban” dream was cooked up by federal agency pre WW2 and yes based on some strong racists ideas. Once WW2 happened, the nation was ready for the big boy play and here we are.
