You’re assuming that the 20 minute video isn’t already a short summary of something larger. You can only summarize something so much before reducing it to uselessness.
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.
It definitely is, the video description mentions a master thesis.
Every book has a cover text to give the reader some information. Every thesis has an abstract with the key points. But sadly on YouTube, the video description is often pretty useless.
