I was looking for old nearby and quirky videos, the ones she should make in the early 2010s. I wish she never deleted them. Mostly because they were awesome!
Is kind of an unnecessary complex compliment, the idea that her videos are so damn good, that people can't believe she makes them all by herself. Wait a minute... was this a humble brag video all along!?
The best conspiracy theory I’ve ever heard is that rocks are secretly soft and squishy, but tense up when you touch them. We should be focused on that!

Did anybody consider that the real conspiracy is a group of people purposly writing comments about Sabrina related conspiracies to get her to make a video about conspiracies?
Well I think YOU hired people to comment about Sabrina so she would make a video about it, only for you to make this comment and get a heart I rest my case
@@toomanywhales well i think you hired people to comment about sabrina so she would make a video about it, for this person to make this comment and get a heart, only for you to reply and rest your case
@@answerinprogress to be fair, you still do the animations and you're careful to pull in other reliable resources (so you're not just feeding into your own bias). So, Sabrina, you keep doing you. I love learning about your passions and everyday rabbit holes :D
My favourite quote about humans is from Terry Pratchett: "Some humans would do anything to see if it was possible to do it. If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry."
Yh and all her friends are really talented youtubers too, so I add I don't have any friends to the list of things other people cant realistically have.
She publishes one video a month, that's plenty of time for someone talented, learned, and with the connections to get guidance to make the kind of content she makes on her own.
FWIW, I feel like part of this is at least implicit bias like "how can a GIRL be this talented/smart/well informed". I know my evidence for this is heavily anecdotal, but I make a point to follow smaller youtubers and have NEVER heard of a conspiracy forming around the idea that "oh you can't do this on your own". The fact that you CAN produce the quality of content that Sabrina produces by-and-large on your own is WHY you have a successful youtube channel. Most people who watch youtube I would bet understand that. But, if you think it's PARTICULARLY unique for someone with X qualities to produce such content, and ignore that X qualities don't imply anything about ability to create this caliber of content, and subscribe to Occam's Razor like it's the shield between you and Satan himself, then I could see how some subscribers think Sabrina is a part of some conspiracy. I mean, they're misled, ignorant, and absolute utter morons, but some people are.
It is sad how those people just lose the opportunity to simply enjoy admiring great content and the people creating it. They seem to be entirely trapped in their own underachievement, entirely unable to look at something and just loving how well it works, how much thought and love went into it and that this against all odds gets rewarded.
@@Faustvonholle keep in mind that a creator is more likely to become aware of conspiracy theories in their own comments than any of their viewers. I haven't been paying attention to Sabrina's comments personally, but ask yourself: did you know about the conspiracy theory before this video?
I always assign a percentage in my head when I hold multiple conflicting beliefs... there's a 0.001% chance the theory about her is true, and the balance that she isn't... for example. I'm 99% certain that building inspectors were bribed back in the 1970s to overlook shoddy construction, the inspectors may also have been bribed after the 1993 bombings, and this made the World Trade Center vulnerable to shock impacts. Yeah I know, who would ever believe that a building inspector in New York City might accept a bribe??? Only 1% to the government story. 0% to microwave nukes, holograms and rigged charges, etc.
@@ka9dgx While I like where you are going, the part about the bribed building inspectors doesn't seem like a good argument to me. I believe the same, but the argument seems poor. It sounds like you are more arguing about what you think might be true and about how you want to think the world works rather than actually knowing stats about how many times on average NY building inspectors are bribed to hide poor construction. I'm not saying that those ones weren't, but based on how much training and oversight that I have had to take in order to spot and stop bribes for a normal job, it would seem that bribes couldn't be happening 99% of the time in the inspection field. Of course I could be wrong and bribing could be the norm, people are pretty dishonest as a rule in my experience.
@@ka9dgx I generally don't even bother assigning probabilities. The differences in the competing models only matter if I am going to do something different based on them. Suppose the worst, remote-controlled planes, rigged charges, whatever else is involved. Anything you would do differently? Any conspirators are so shielded that they will never be prosecuted. Does it matter, except maybe for your peace of mind?
The quote is david Hume I think.. I heard it somewhere else I don’t read philosophy books lol. Also I think it’s sometimes difficult to go to the source of evidence especially considering how much info we take in each day. Like if I see a bbc news piece like “scientists think that chocolate is bad for your skin” I in no way look at the actual study they are referring to.. I just trust they did their due diligence and probably tell the anecdote to someone else later as if it’s true. I think that’s normal but it explains some of why humans sometimes struggle to come to a consensus on what the truth is and probably I believe a lot of unproven stuff. I mean I’m not off to check the evidence for those psych biases taha mentioned!
Introspection is important, but that doesn't mean you should question your reality, lest you have an existential crisis and dissociate. So, while yes, question your biases and beliefs, but don't stress yourself out to the point you disconnect from reality. It can lead to a lot of unhealthy behaviors and isn't good especially if you're already mentally ill. So grounding is important no matter what.
"Intelligence doesn’t make you less prone to taking on bad ideas, it just makes you better at defending them to other people and to yourself. Smart people can believe some truly ridiculous things, and then deploy all the reason and logic at their disposal to justify them, because a belief doesn’t begin in your mind. It begins in your feelings." - The Magnus Archives
Eh, intelligence doesn't help if you've already bought in to the conspiracy. Case in point, by dad's a hardline conservative, reads and watches the garbage spilling from Fox News and takes their word as gospel. He's also a doctor.
exactly! some flat earthers are fully capable scientists who run valid experiments to test the curvature of the earth. the problem is, when they consistently get results that tell them the earth isn't flat, they ignore it.
As someone who has been watching this channel since Sabrina took over for John's paternity leave, the idea, that these videos aren't made by Sabrina, is ludicrous
I have not watched any of her shows and i dont know who john is but im a realists... i need fact with proof if you don't have one supporting the other.. you're talking out your ass period ...nothings wrong with that.. but everyone has an ass and most people can talk..and talk and talk and talk......
As someone who has been following your channel since you were in high school, I found it hilarious when you first talked about this on Twitter. I don't know why people think that it's unbelievable that you have cultivated these skills and put a tremendous amount of work into these videos. Keep up the good work!
I agree: Sabrina is too talented to be a human being. I mean, hosting, writing, researching, animating, and programming about relatable content? Absolutely impossible for someone to be so talented. Regardless of if you're part of the illuminati or not, I look forward to more videos. You guys are awesome. :)
What a compliment tho. "No single person is this talented it has to be a team" Like damn bro you're so good at what you do people can't even believe it
Also when I think a lot of people find comfort in the idea that all bad things are caused by one common enemy because then there is a clear idea of what to do to improve or fix things, when in reality it is a lot more difficult to solve complex problems
yes, definitely! similarly, one reason i think crime dramas and police procedurals are so popular is that justice is rarely dispensed fairly and quickly in real life, so it can be comforting to see problems being solved, and resolved.
The album "Real Enemies" by Darcy James Argue ends with a narration over music that sums this up pretty well. I'm just gonna paraphrase: "The world of the conspiracist is actually more coherent than reality, because it leaves no room for errors, coincidences, or history. Everything is part of a big plan."
I think that a lot of people who believe in anti-scientific conspiracy theories (flat earthers, etc) are people who felt alienated by our education system and didn’t trust it, and turned to conspiracy theories instead. It’s probably not all people whose science educations failed them, but I do think we need to be empathetic. Especially in the US, science is often poorly communicated and scares people off, and there is work to be done to make science more accessible for these people.
I have found that another culprit is the oversimplification of science in early school years. There have been so many times that I have taken a higher level course, only to learn that something I was taught when I was younger was just wrong. Like every single science teacher and textbook I had in high school insisted that liquids are completely incompressible, even when I was confused about how sound would be able to travel through it and tried to question them further after class. And it's just not true. Of course liquids are compressible; all standard matter is compressible, just to varying extents.
@@LostLargeCats That's a very good insight. I don't think conspiracy theorist are dumb. I think most of them are smart enough to realize that the things they learned in school have these oversimplifications that make them feel wrong (and sometimes, they are just plain wrong). Their failing is to see bad faith and organization where there is none. It's a personality trait more than a simple question of intelligence. I know people that think that every bad thing happening to them is the product of somebody plotting against him. For example, if they are searching for their keys and don't find them instantly, the first thought they have is that somebody has hidden them, or if a neighbour plays music very loud, is just to upset him (and only him), probably following a evil plan with the person who hid his keys.
@@juanausensi499 I would agree with you and have seen similar behavior even from people in my extended family. I wonder if it is tied into some kind of personality disorder. Paranoid personality disorder, Dissociative identity disorder, Narcissistic Personality Disorder, Main character syndrome, Solipsism syndrome, or something similar. I don't have much knowledge in that area of study.
@@LostLargeCats I agree with you to some extent with the oversimplification of science. I've heard it referred to as the "lies-to-children" model. The thing is, it's necessary to some extent. You have absolutely no chance of understanding the principle of least action without understanding calculus. And you can't really understand calculus without having an understanding of a simple model of motion in the first place. On a fundamental level it's necessary because we ultimately don't have a theory of everything that explains the whole world. The problem isn't that we lie to children. The problem is that we're dishonest about it, like you said. There's nothing wrong with telling kids that the model we're teaching them is incomplete and that they'll get a more complete model later. Kids already know that higher year levels are harder, so it's not like it's a surprise for them. And it's also important for everyone to understand that sometimes the simple, "incorrect" model is fine. That it does the job you need it to. 90% of the time it's A-OK to assume that liquids are incompressible, for example.
honestly this conspiracy is grounded in Sabrina being amazing at every part of the youtube world. People are out here doubting her effort and skill and claiming it's a government thing when she's just amazing :)
The conspiracy theories around this channel are like a reverse neg - not actually supposed to be a compliment, but highlights just the ridiculously high quality videos that come out of this channel. Absolutely fantastic channel.
"John and Hank Green eat your heart out" 😂 I wonder how much of the "conspiracy" is based on someone's bias that a woman can't do all the amazing things that Sabrina can do... If she was a man, how different would this situation be? Would it even exist at all? Would people just think that a guy doing everything Sabrina does is "normal" and his skills wouldn't come into question in the first place?
It wouldn't and it shouldn't. In contrast to other stranger theories, the theory is not completely irrational. How difficult is it to believe that balancing so much on one's plate is, well, difficult? Regarding of sex, you'd need discipline and tremendous ambition, which to be honest, a fair amount of people lack.
It's not only 13 minutes, but 13 minutes and 36 seconds! 36 is divisible by 13, which is considered an unlucky number. And when you do that, you get the number 3. You know what has 3 sides? A triangle. And what does that mean? *Sabrina is a part of the Illuminati confirmed*
I just really love that Sabrina are bringing some other people into this channel. I really like how Sabrina connects with everyone of them and how well they fit with the topics they are presenting.
I remember in history 12 my teacher had us do 2 essays on conspiracys for JFK and 9/11. We had to decide if there was a conspiracy or not. (The rest of the class was actually history). It's been 2.5y so I cant remember everything. I'm almost 100% certain he wanted us to use facts. If it could be disputed we had to back it up with more facts, change our stance, or get a lower grade. (If I remember). I think we could redo the essays if we got a grade we didnt like. Anyways, I think I started thinking more critically of conspiracys because of that, but this brought me back and makes me want to relook at those conspiracies. Sorry, just wanted to put my history with conspiracy theories in. (Before I have been sucked into some. Havent been since) Sorry for the long comment.
“We’re bad at recognizing randomness” Wow, what a profound way to turn “pattern recognition” into a negative! Very useful too. A lot of paranoia is the result of inability to recognize randomness
Bringing in the Psychology angle was really important, and I'm glad Taha did that. Our brains are not perfectly rational engines of logic, they are beautiful messes of cognitive function that rely on tricks and blunt instruments to help us process the world around us. They are very good at what they do, _most_ of the time. We wouldn't be alive today if that wasn't the case. But our cognitive biases can easily come to incorrect conclusions, especially when presented with aberrant situations or bad information. It can lead us to coming to wildly incorrect and toxic conclusions. And none of this even touches upon how bad faith actors, grifters, or those with malign political agendas actively lie to us for their own benefit. The unfortunate thing is that these problems in our cognition - these biases and irrationalities - are here to stay. It's inherent to our species, and we will have to wrestle with it for our entire lives. The good news is that *awareness* of these faults or mental traps allows us to break out of them. We can stop ourselves mid-stride and ask "wait, am I only coming to this conclusion because it supports what I already believe?". It takes work and, most painfully, self-reflection. The ability to look at ourselves objectively, and really come to terms with our fallibility as individuals and as a species.
why would anyone believe that she makes these videos alone? she OBVIOUSLY just forces her friends to make the videos for her 😉 /s seriously tho, great video 👍
Im so gratefully that john and hank found you and pointed me at this channel. I've really enjoyed your unique approach to things. Keep at it Sabrina, and if you are somehow part of a vast conspiracy then blink three times at the end of your next three videos. We will know what that means and spread the word!
So... admittedly I'm new here. I've seen a few videos, and they've caught my eye enough to give the channel a chance. I watch a _lot_ of UA-cam and am subscribed to a _lot_ of really amazing channels. In essence, my UA-cam ecosystem is pretty saturated, and I have a low tolerance for channels that don't impress me right away. This was a fantastic video, by the way! So please understand, I'm not throwing any shade on Sabrina by any means when I ask this... What in the world kind of junk UA-cam channels are these people watching, who think Sabrina couldn't possibly be talented enough to do this by herself??? UA-cam is absolutely jam-packed with amazing creators making amazing content. This channel, from what I've seen so far, while a _good_ channel, is in no way out of the ordinary. Sabrina, you've caught my eye because you're clearly smart, well-spoken, have a pretty rational world-view, and the production value of your videos is very good. That said, in the world of high-quality educational UA-cam channels, this isn't _that_ special. Good lord, conspiracy people! Go check out any one of Hank Green's dozen excellent channels, or one of Simon Whistler's or Brady Haran's half-dozen each! Check out Henry Reich's MinutePhysics and MinuteEarth! Take a look at Dr. Rebecca Smethurst on her channel Dr. Becky, or on Brady Haran's Sixty Symbols! Each and every one of those people is just incredible at what they do in their own ways, possessing myriad talents and the drive to use them. I'm not making a judgment about their relative talent level at all! Sabrina might very well be on a trajectory to become a superstar of UA-cam, where Hank Green and his brother John (the _actual_ founders of Crash Course, as mentioned here) are a good decade and a half into their own careers. _Now_ they have entire production companies and staff working for them, doing research, camera work, editing, etc... but none of them started out that way. With _very_ few exceptions, great UA-camrs start off just like this, using the talents they possess (none of Sabrina's talents I've seen so far are in any way beyond belief or worthy of incredulity; her animations, while very clever and poignant, showing great wit and intriguing perspective, are actually quite simple, and can be created in practically any art software in less time than you might think, for example). Basically, there are four types of UA-camrs who make content like this. 1. Solo creators at the beginning of their journey who cannot yet self-support solely through UA-cam and thus publish infrequently, like Sabrina. 2. Solo creators further along in their journeys and/or who have the passion and desire to do UA-cam as a job, and can make it their full-time career. They also need a very solid concept for the channel that can bear a lot of fruit in terms of what videos to make. They publish much more frequently, ranging from high quality videos a couple of times a week, to more down-and-dirty videos daily or even more often. 3. Former solo creators whose channels grew so big and numerous, and whose fans' thirst for their content was so relentless, that they ended up hiring people to help them publish even better videos, even more frequently. 4. UA-camrs who actually _are_ hired hosts for corporate channels, such as the many channels under the PBS Digital Studios umbrella. These tend to be experts in their fields and/or prolific and respected UA-camrs who have careers of their own, and simply don't have the time to do the creation of a channel themselves... but can pop in once a week, vet a script, and then perform it on camera, then go back to their lives while the company finishes producing the video. These... don't tend to be subtle, and have the corporation's logo all over them, along with a lot more legal satisficing stuff like end credit rolls and disclaimers, because corporate legal ass-covering. Seriously... I'd say "get a life" to you crazy conspiracy nutballs... but actually, you can be far more worldly and not-stupid about _this_ conspiracy while lazing about your bedroom in your underwear and failing to bathe for weeks on end, so... really, just... geez. Grow a brain, yeah?
Imagine producing content so well done, that you are mistaken for a multibillion-dollar production company hell bent on manipulating the minds of the masses. Hats off to you guys, keep up the good work
my vivid childhood memory of watching teenage sabrina talking about her sexy kakashi handsome squidward face story will not allow me to believe she’s part of a conspiracy
I made an article about conspiracy theories for a school assignment, so its fun to hear some of that back. Though it would've been helpfull if this was uploaded some months ago.
Wow. I can't believed John and Hank Green are also involved in this. And so is Taha. And Taha knows basically all UA-camrs. This goes all the way to the top!
My knee-jerk reaction is that some folks think that because you are a woman you could not possibly make these videos on your own, so sexism. Perhaps with some racism sprinkled on top.
Boggedferngaming but I wouldn’t be surprised if then her age and race only emboldens their thoughts of ‘if I can’t do this, and she’s a WOMAN she DEFINITELY can’t do it!’
I doubt sexism plays that big of a role role, people who've never really achieved anything are always quick to project their own insecurities onto other people, no matter the gender. It's easier to believe that anyone who's achieved anything at a young age is disingenuous than admit the hard truth that you're a loser.
God I’ve been watching you for so long this is hilarious. I have been honoured to watch you grow and develop your skills to get to the awesome content you’re creating now 💜 (not that the Disney and rock pun music videos and fandom content weren’t also very good back in the day)
An unfortunate but probable cause of at least some of the 'conspiracy' around Sabrina is the one-two punch of misogyny and racism. Would these people be as doubtful of Sabrina's ability to be so multi-talented if she was a man? If she was white? Probably not. I really wish that were not the case, but with *{vague gesture}* everything that's been happening lately, it's irresponsible to not acknowledge it. Especially since it's not a new problem. It's just a problem that's been more noticeable and prominent in the public eye lately.
Isnt that a conspiratorial account in and of itself? When it's more likely that they don't like her opinions and they happen to not see how much time/work she puts into videos?
@@percivalyracanth1528 Not Op, but I wouldn't call that comment conspiratorial. Especially starting with the statement, "unfortunate but probable". It sound more like an observation. That is not to say that people might be thinking this consciously. It may be a subconscious bias. I would add that of course it doesn't help that Sabrina also looks young (with roundish features) and wear no makeup (the latter of which can paradoxically signal both competence and incompetence depending on circumstance, execution and the observer's personal biases). But I'm no expert.
@@bladesqueen5201 That's not at all what the comment was saying. Racism and Sexism don't stem from these types of conspiracies. They cause them. Its what makes lizard people an anti-Semitic dog whistle
I think most of these people have heard about the brew channel where it's a channel that just seems like a UA-camr who is really good at animation and gong in-depth but is really run by a large company. Once you know that that channel is a company I can see why you would think other channels are like that
The fact that she did a video trying to show her in a more humanlike position (like sitting on her ber using a cellphone earphones microphone) makes me think even more than she is a very talented person
on a genuine side note, the videos you’ve made so far are not only so interesting to watch (both humanities and stem stuff) but also understandable lmfao, thank you fro breaking so much of this down into something thats digestible and understandable terms bc my pea brain does not process things as fast anymore. and your animation and visuals are just absolutely chef kiss!! overall, it’s amazing and i genuinely love and learn when i’m watching your videos
Rewatch Taha's section and in your mind replace the words "conspiracy theory" with "religion" and switch "big government/Illuminati" for "god/gods/a higher power". As an atheist I feel like religious people don't examine their beliefs critically. Edit: I might not have explained that as best I could. TL;DR apply the summary at 5:32 to religion.
About the idea that you cannot prove conspiracy theorists wrong, I remember a phrase that went along the line of "These people were confronted at some point with the choice of either being right, or being rational, and chose the former", and I think it sums up pretty well why it's such a hard issue to tackle.
As someone who's been around since the first time you ever did a video on the Vlogbrothers channel and has seen all of your old videos, this is absolutely hilarious to me But in all seriousness your videos have come so far from that old setup in your bedroom and the weird 2010s editing, it's been a joy watching your content and skills as a creator change and improve over the years, to this day you're one of my favorites
To disprove the theories you should show us how you make your videos look so good. And what software you use And and your cameras and techniques And what stock libraries you use And your general workflow And if you took any online courses or use other resources You know, for the conspiracy nuts.
That'd be cool to see, but it doesn't have to be for the conspiracy theorists. I feel like fans, like my self, would find a video like this entertaining.
Best B. That’s the point. Jake Macock isn’t a conspiracy theorist, he wants her to reveal all her tips for being as successful as she is on youtube so he can follow in her footsteps.
this video should have been sponsored by skillshare 😭 "How can anyone learn animation and editing and script writing so quickly? MUST be the Illuminati !!" *insert skillshare ad*
to make sure that a theory works, you have to as skeptical of it being true as you are of it being false. look for the same level of evidence, and you might get somewhere useful
@@aroundtenpercent that's how you science, basically. You have a theory of how thing works and design an experiment to prove yourself wrong. If you fail at that, you publish your paper and PROGRESS, if not, you might still publish as "unhelpful stuff we tried so you don't have to". Shame that conspiracy theories don't work quite that way
I live in an area where I’m considered a conspiracy theorist for thinking a lot of large corporations kinda suck. People don’t think monopolies are a problem, & I’m just a conspiracy theorist for thinking amazon and Disney and Walmart maybe aren’t great. How do you explain the difference between actually covered truths and wild conspiracy theories? I’ve had people genuinely tell me that “What’s wrong with a monopoly? They’re just smarter and better than their competition was so what’s the big deal?” Which is cool
I have a feeling that the country you live in is the US. Really, no other countries allow monopolies as often as the US. Simply because they don't feel fair for the rest of the population. Everyone should be able to thrive as they want. It's no longer about those that won the race, it's about those that are just starting their lives and are about to enter the race. They're handicapped. That's one side of why monopolies aren't good. The other thing is that without competition, the market stagnates. Because there's a monopoly, the person holding that monopoly no longer feels the need to innovate, and is also the only provider of the product/service. So prices rise, and the market itself never evolves while the rest of the world does. Competition must exist. It forces prices to self-control, so accessibility is never an issue, and forces the market to change and evolve, so more innovations can appear. Hold too many monopolies for too long, now you've converted your capitalist state into a fascist one. To keep capitalism alive, some form of competition must exist, such that it balances the rest of the economy. That also avoids frequent government intervention. The economy becomes self-regulating and self-sustaining. No need to give tax breaks, no need to inflate markets so they don't die. Markets that are no longer relevant will eventually die off, and new markets will emerge. Those people that hold monopolies sure earned them, but they shouldn't be able to keep them for too long. Good example: Disney. They just lobby the government so they can evergreen their copyright on the Mouse. Their market is stagnating. So, wouldn't that be a good reason to try to come up with something new? _Being smart doesn't justify being stubborn._
I think a point that will stick with me from this video is when Dr. Cassam said a tipping point comes when you ask "What evidence would I, the conspiracy theorist, need to in order to change my mind?" This feels like a really powerful tool to measure any closely held belief. It has room to maneuver for any belief, asks to think critically and skeptically and opens a rich self dialogue to self discovery. Thanks Sabrina & Taha for making this video. I believe you are an incredible skilled researcher, writer and media creator. You'd have to show me some solid evidence to change my mind on that! :P

@@answerinprogress to be fair, you still do the animations and you're careful to pull in other reliable resources (so you're not just feeding into your own bias). So, Sabrina, you keep doing you. I love learning about your passions and everyday rabbit holes :D

the irony!!!!
Time for my favorite quote: "I love humans. Always seeing patterns in things that aren't there."
Doctor Who!
@@yuvalne yep :D
My favourite quote about humans is from Terry Pratchett:
"Some humans would do anything to see if it was possible to do it. If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry."
literally evolutionary training gone wrong
Su sanne Terry Pratchett is the most transcendent author out there.
"I don't have the will, talent, or skill to achieve something therefore people who do are all fakes" that pretty sums up your "conspiracy" imo
Yh and all her friends are really talented youtubers too, so I add I don't have any friends to the list of things other people cant realistically have.
She publishes one video a month, that's plenty of time for someone talented, learned, and with the connections to get guidance to make the kind of content she makes on her own.
FWIW, I feel like part of this is at least implicit bias like "how can a GIRL be this talented/smart/well informed". I know my evidence for this is heavily anecdotal, but I make a point to follow smaller youtubers and have NEVER heard of a conspiracy forming around the idea that "oh you can't do this on your own". The fact that you CAN produce the quality of content that Sabrina produces by-and-large on your own is WHY you have a successful youtube channel. Most people who watch youtube I would bet understand that. But, if you think it's PARTICULARLY unique for someone with X qualities to produce such content, and ignore that X qualities don't imply anything about ability to create this caliber of content, and subscribe to Occam's Razor like it's the shield between you and Satan himself, then I could see how some subscribers think Sabrina is a part of some conspiracy.
I mean, they're misled, ignorant, and absolute utter morons, but some people are.
It is sad how those people just lose the opportunity to simply enjoy admiring great content and the people creating it. They seem to be entirely trapped in their own underachievement, entirely unable to look at something and just loving how well it works, how much thought and love went into it and that this against all odds gets rewarded.
@@Faustvonholle keep in mind that a creator is more likely to become aware of conspiracy theories in their own comments than any of their viewers. I haven't been paying attention to Sabrina's comments personally, but ask yourself: did you know about the conspiracy theory before this video?

“A wise man proportions his beliefs to the evidence” - This line is so insightful!
I always assign a percentage in my head when I hold multiple conflicting beliefs... there's a 0.001% chance the theory about her is true, and the balance that she isn't... for example.
I'm 99% certain that building inspectors were bribed back in the 1970s to overlook shoddy construction, the inspectors may also have been bribed after the 1993 bombings, and this made the World Trade Center vulnerable to shock impacts.
Yeah I know, who would ever believe that a building inspector in New York City might accept a bribe???
Only 1% to the government story.
0% to microwave nukes, holograms and rigged charges, etc.
@@ka9dgx While I like where you are going, the part about the bribed building inspectors doesn't seem like a good argument to me. I believe the same, but the argument seems poor. It sounds like you are more arguing about what you think might be true and about how you want to think the world works rather than actually knowing stats about how many times on average NY building inspectors are bribed to hide poor construction. I'm not saying that those ones weren't, but based on how much training and oversight that I have had to take in order to spot and stop bribes for a normal job, it would seem that bribes couldn't be happening 99% of the time in the inspection field. Of course I could be wrong and bribing could be the norm, people are pretty dishonest as a rule in my experience.
@@ka9dgx
I generally don't even bother assigning probabilities. The differences in the competing models only matter if I am going to do something different based on them. Suppose the worst, remote-controlled planes, rigged charges, whatever else is involved. Anything you would do differently? Any conspirators are so shielded that they will never be prosecuted. Does it matter, except maybe for your peace of mind?
The quote is david Hume I think.. I heard it somewhere else I don’t read philosophy books lol.
Also I think it’s sometimes difficult to go to the source of evidence especially considering how much info we take in each day. Like if I see a bbc news piece like “scientists think that chocolate is bad for your skin” I in no way look at the actual study they are referring to.. I just trust they did their due diligence and probably tell the anecdote to someone else later as if it’s true. I think that’s normal but it explains some of why humans sometimes struggle to come to a consensus on what the truth is and probably I believe a lot of unproven stuff. I mean I’m not off to check the evidence for those psych biases taha mentioned!
Apply that to religious beliefs

Approximately 1 hour after this video's release, Michael Reeves released a video.
“Question Everything” also includes questioning your own thoughts & biases (Introspection is important)

Introspection is important, but that doesn't mean you should question your reality, lest you have an existential crisis and dissociate.
So, while yes, question your biases and beliefs, but don't stress yourself out to the point you disconnect from reality. It can lead to a lot of unhealthy behaviors and isn't good especially if you're already mentally ill.
So grounding is important no matter what.
Should apply to religion too

"Intelligence doesn’t make you less prone to taking on bad ideas, it just makes you better at defending them to other people and to yourself. Smart people can believe some truly ridiculous things, and then deploy all the reason and logic at their disposal to justify them, because a belief doesn’t begin in your mind. It begins in your feelings."
- The Magnus Archives
Everyone can be dysrational no matter how well they did in school or what their intelligence tests say. It is hard to test for rationality.
Eh, intelligence doesn't help if you've already bought in to the conspiracy. Case in point, by dad's a hardline conservative, reads and watches the garbage spilling from Fox News and takes their word as gospel. He's also a doctor.
The red or Carlson?
exactly! some flat earthers are fully capable scientists who run valid experiments to test the curvature of the earth. the problem is, when they consistently get results that tell them the earth isn't flat, they ignore it.
As someone who has been watching this channel since Sabrina took over for John's paternity leave, the idea, that these videos aren't made by Sabrina, is ludicrous
Yes! For the amount of work I’ve seen Sabrina put in, I am incredibly proud and am in awe. Like, how do I do that?

Sabrina showing off how some viewers can‘t believe, that she alone can produce such high quality content, is a weird flex and I‘m here for it
As someone who has been following your channel since you were in high school, I found it hilarious when you first talked about this on Twitter. I don't know why people think that it's unbelievable that you have cultivated these skills and put a tremendous amount of work into these videos. Keep up the good work!
"Well... Are you???" Too real of a friend response
Maybe Sabrina's not the one in the Illuminati. Dun dun DUUUUUUUUN
this channel is a gold mine
Facts man/woman/idgaf
The alumanati control all the gold, man!
but what do you mean by that hm? ,'://////////
off topic but epic pfp
I agree: Sabrina is too talented to be a human being. I mean, hosting, writing, researching, animating, and programming about relatable content? Absolutely impossible for someone to be so talented. Regardless of if you're part of the illuminati or not, I look forward to more videos. You guys are awesome. :)
What a compliment tho. "No single person is this talented it has to be a team"
Like damn bro you're so good at what you do people can't even believe it
Also when I think a lot of people find comfort in the idea that all bad things are caused by one common enemy because then there is a clear idea of what to do to improve or fix things, when in reality it is a lot more difficult to solve complex problems
yes, definitely! similarly, one reason i think crime dramas and police procedurals are so popular is that justice is rarely dispensed fairly and quickly in real life, so it can be comforting to see problems being solved, and resolved.
The album "Real Enemies" by Darcy James Argue ends with a narration over music that sums this up pretty well. I'm just gonna paraphrase: "The world of the conspiracist is actually more coherent than reality, because it leaves no room for errors, coincidences, or history. Everything is part of a big plan."
Okay but if you were part of the illuminati we'd have consistent uploads
That’s what they want you to think
XD
She consistently uploads once a month.
I think that a lot of people who believe in anti-scientific conspiracy theories (flat earthers, etc) are people who felt alienated by our education system and didn’t trust it, and turned to conspiracy theories instead. It’s probably not all people whose science educations failed them, but I do think we need to be empathetic. Especially in the US, science is often poorly communicated and scares people off, and there is work to be done to make science more accessible for these people.
Yeah the education system is a culprit
I have found that another culprit is the oversimplification of science in early school years. There have been so many times that I have taken a higher level course, only to learn that something I was taught when I was younger was just wrong. Like every single science teacher and textbook I had in high school insisted that liquids are completely incompressible, even when I was confused about how sound would be able to travel through it and tried to question them further after class. And it's just not true. Of course liquids are compressible; all standard matter is compressible, just to varying extents.
@@LostLargeCats That's a very good insight. I don't think conspiracy theorist are dumb. I think most of them are smart enough to realize that the things they learned in school have these oversimplifications that make them feel wrong (and sometimes, they are just plain wrong). Their failing is to see bad faith and organization where there is none. It's a personality trait more than a simple question of intelligence. I know people that think that every bad thing happening to them is the product of somebody plotting against him. For example, if they are searching for their keys and don't find them instantly, the first thought they have is that somebody has hidden them, or if a neighbour plays music very loud, is just to upset him (and only him), probably following a evil plan with the person who hid his keys.
@@juanausensi499 I would agree with you and have seen similar behavior even from people in my extended family. I wonder if it is tied into some kind of personality disorder. Paranoid personality disorder, Dissociative identity disorder, Narcissistic Personality Disorder, Main character syndrome, Solipsism syndrome, or something similar. I don't have much knowledge in that area of study.
@@LostLargeCats I agree with you to some extent with the oversimplification of science. I've heard it referred to as the "lies-to-children" model.
The thing is, it's necessary to some extent. You have absolutely no chance of understanding the principle of least action without understanding calculus. And you can't really understand calculus without having an understanding of a simple model of motion in the first place. On a fundamental level it's necessary because we ultimately don't have a theory of everything that explains the whole world.
The problem isn't that we lie to children. The problem is that we're dishonest about it, like you said. There's nothing wrong with telling kids that the model we're teaching them is incomplete and that they'll get a more complete model later. Kids already know that higher year levels are harder, so it's not like it's a surprise for them.
And it's also important for everyone to understand that sometimes the simple, "incorrect" model is fine. That it does the job you need it to. 90% of the time it's A-OK to assume that liquids are incompressible, for example.
honestly this conspiracy is grounded in Sabrina being amazing at every part of the youtube world. People are out here doubting her effort and skill and claiming it's a government thing when she's just amazing :)
The conspiracy theories around this channel are like a reverse neg - not actually supposed to be a compliment, but highlights just the ridiculously high quality videos that come out of this channel.
Absolutely fantastic channel.
"John and Hank Green eat your heart out" 😂
I wonder how much of the "conspiracy" is based on someone's bias that a woman can't do all the amazing things that Sabrina can do... If she was a man, how different would this situation be? Would it even exist at all? Would people just think that a guy doing everything Sabrina does is "normal" and his skills wouldn't come into question in the first place?
I was thinking the same thing!
She’s also not white so that might factor into it
It wouldn't and it shouldn't. In contrast to other stranger theories, the theory is not completely irrational. How difficult is it to believe that balancing so much on one's plate is, well, difficult? Regarding of sex, you'd need discipline and tremendous ambition, which to be honest, a fair amount of people lack.
Further proving Sabrina has done a heck of a job so kudos!
I don't think that's it...
This channel is so underrated
Some of y'all have never watched Sabrina's old videos about fandom stuff, rapping, and learning skills like animation and it shows
This video is 13 minutes long.....THIRTEEN! COINCIDENCE?!
Yes.
oR Is iT??!!!!?!?! ! ! ! ! ; ; ???!??!?!??!
Of course not, it has to be more than 10 minutes for monetization to work, and for the YT algorithm to recommend the video better.
Wake up SHEEPLE!
Thats what THEY want you to think. 🤣 😂
It's not only 13 minutes, but 13 minutes and 36 seconds! 36 is divisible by 13, which is considered an unlucky number. And when you do that, you get the number 3. You know what has 3 sides? A triangle. And what does that mean?
*Sabrina is a part of the Illuminati confirmed*
1336 was one hell of a year
I just really love that Sabrina are bringing some other people into this channel. I really like how Sabrina connects with everyone of them and how well they fit with the topics they are presenting.
I've heard once that "humans are wardwired to believe *A WIZARD DID IT* is a more likely explanation than *It literally just happened*".
I cant believe wizards made humans think this way
Alot of people believe in a sky wizard or skydaddy i.e. a god
I remember in history 12 my teacher had us do 2 essays on conspiracys for JFK and 9/11. We had to decide if there was a conspiracy or not. (The rest of the class was actually history).
It's been 2.5y so I cant remember everything. I'm almost 100% certain he wanted us to use facts. If it could be disputed we had to back it up with more facts, change our stance, or get a lower grade. (If I remember). I think we could redo the essays if we got a grade we didnt like.
Anyways, I think I started thinking more critically of conspiracys because of that, but this brought me back and makes me want to relook at those conspiracies.
Sorry, just wanted to put my history with conspiracy theories in. (Before I have been sucked into some. Havent been since)

I find it so interesting that one person I follow on UA-cam has literally become a cryptid and now YOU are a conspiracy theory..beautiful.
who's the cryptid?
Imagine making videos SO GOOD that the only possible explanation is that you're part of the Illuminati
Bringing in the Psychology angle was really important, and I'm glad Taha did that. Our brains are not perfectly rational engines of logic, they are beautiful messes of cognitive function that rely on tricks and blunt instruments to help us process the world around us. They are very good at what they do, _most_ of the time. We wouldn't be alive today if that wasn't the case. But our cognitive biases can easily come to incorrect conclusions, especially when presented with aberrant situations or bad information. It can lead us to coming to wildly incorrect and toxic conclusions. And none of this even touches upon how bad faith actors, grifters, or those with malign political agendas actively lie to us for their own benefit.
The unfortunate thing is that these problems in our cognition - these biases and irrationalities - are here to stay. It's inherent to our species, and we will have to wrestle with it for our entire lives. The good news is that *awareness* of these faults or mental traps allows us to break out of them. We can stop ourselves mid-stride and ask "wait, am I only coming to this conclusion because it supports what I already believe?". It takes work and, most painfully, self-reflection. The ability to look at ourselves objectively, and really come to terms with our fallibility as individuals and as a species.
As a member of the illumati, I can confirm Sabrina joined the week subsequent to this video
This goes all the way to the top you'll see next week 🤣🤣
why would anyone believe that she makes these videos alone? she OBVIOUSLY just forces her friends to make the videos for her 😉 /s
seriously tho, great video 👍
Sabrina is that type of channel that when uploads a video you want to watch it immediately
The “no way this girl” comment is one of my favorite youtube comments I’ve seen.
I can’t believe that the biggest hater on this channel is saying that it’s fishy that the content is THIS GOOD
getting taha, a friend, to spout what YOU believe!? illuminate!!!!!!
awesome video this was fun! ☺
I love the genuine down to earth way you talk, quite refreshing on youtube.
I love “who wrote your script?” comments and how clearly they are based in sexism.
yes, how possibly could one young woman be so talented?! Pffft.
I kinda hoped the video would end with Sabrina calling Hank and John and saying "they're on to us!"
I love the combination of "too much for one person to do" and "why are the uploads so irregular"
Do people hear themselves
THE ANIMATION!!! THE EDITING!!!! EXQUISITE!!!!!
Im so gratefully that john and hank found you and pointed me at this channel. I've really enjoyed your unique approach to things. Keep at it Sabrina, and if you are somehow part of a vast conspiracy then blink three times at the end of your next three videos. We will know what that means and spread the word!
Imagine being so good at animating that you make people believe you are an entire corporation
So... admittedly I'm new here. I've seen a few videos, and they've caught my eye enough to give the channel a chance. I watch a _lot_ of UA-cam and am subscribed to a _lot_ of really amazing channels. In essence, my UA-cam ecosystem is pretty saturated, and I have a low tolerance for channels that don't impress me right away.
This was a fantastic video, by the way! So please understand, I'm not throwing any shade on Sabrina by any means when I ask this...
What in the world kind of junk UA-cam channels are these people watching, who think Sabrina couldn't possibly be talented enough to do this by herself??? UA-cam is absolutely jam-packed with amazing creators making amazing content. This channel, from what I've seen so far, while a _good_ channel, is in no way out of the ordinary.
Sabrina, you've caught my eye because you're clearly smart, well-spoken, have a pretty rational world-view, and the production value of your videos is very good. That said, in the world of high-quality educational UA-cam channels, this isn't _that_ special.
Good lord, conspiracy people! Go check out any one of Hank Green's dozen excellent channels, or one of Simon Whistler's or Brady Haran's half-dozen each! Check out Henry Reich's MinutePhysics and MinuteEarth! Take a look at Dr. Rebecca Smethurst on her channel Dr. Becky, or on Brady Haran's Sixty Symbols! Each and every one of those people is just incredible at what they do in their own ways, possessing myriad talents and the drive to use them. I'm not making a judgment about their relative talent level at all! Sabrina might very well be on a trajectory to become a superstar of UA-cam, where Hank Green and his brother John (the _actual_ founders of Crash Course, as mentioned here) are a good decade and a half into their own careers. _Now_ they have entire production companies and staff working for them, doing research, camera work, editing, etc... but none of them started out that way. With _very_ few exceptions, great UA-camrs start off just like this, using the talents they possess (none of Sabrina's talents I've seen so far are in any way beyond belief or worthy of incredulity; her animations, while very clever and poignant, showing great wit and intriguing perspective, are actually quite simple, and can be created in practically any art software in less time than you might think, for example).
Basically, there are four types of UA-camrs who make content like this.
1. Solo creators at the beginning of their journey who cannot yet self-support solely through UA-cam and thus publish infrequently, like Sabrina.
2. Solo creators further along in their journeys and/or who have the passion and desire to do UA-cam as a job, and can make it their full-time career. They also need a very solid concept for the channel that can bear a lot of fruit in terms of what videos to make. They publish much more frequently, ranging from high quality videos a couple of times a week, to more down-and-dirty videos daily or even more often.
3. Former solo creators whose channels grew so big and numerous, and whose fans' thirst for their content was so relentless, that they ended up hiring people to help them publish even better videos, even more frequently.
4. UA-camrs who actually _are_ hired hosts for corporate channels, such as the many channels under the PBS Digital Studios umbrella. These tend to be experts in their fields and/or prolific and respected UA-camrs who have careers of their own, and simply don't have the time to do the creation of a channel themselves... but can pop in once a week, vet a script, and then perform it on camera, then go back to their lives while the company finishes producing the video. These... don't tend to be subtle, and have the corporation's logo all over them, along with a lot more legal satisficing stuff like end credit rolls and disclaimers, because corporate legal ass-covering.
Seriously... I'd say "get a life" to you crazy conspiracy nutballs... but actually, you can be far more worldly and not-stupid about _this_ conspiracy while lazing about your bedroom in your underwear and failing to bathe for weeks on end, so... really, just... geez. Grow a brain, yeah?
Imagine producing content so well done, that you are mistaken for a multibillion-dollar production company hell bent on manipulating the minds of the masses. Hats off to you guys, keep up the good work

My knee-jerk reaction is that some folks think that because you are a woman you could not possibly make these videos on your own, so sexism. Perhaps with some racism sprinkled on top.
I think it’s more of a thing where them their self’s couldn’t imagine themselves do it.
Boggedferngaming but I wouldn’t be surprised if then her age and race only emboldens their thoughts of ‘if I can’t do this, and she’s a WOMAN she DEFINITELY can’t do it!’
I doubt sexism plays that big of a role role, people who've never really achieved anything are always quick to project their own insecurities onto other people, no matter the gender. It's easier to believe that anyone who's achieved anything at a young age is disingenuous than admit the hard truth that you're a loser.
Victoria Lee Florence Maybe it dose play a bigger role i’m just not used to seeing racism and sexism in my community so I think your probably right.

An unfortunate but probable cause of at least some of the 'conspiracy' around Sabrina is the one-two punch of misogyny and racism.
Would these people be as doubtful of Sabrina's ability to be so multi-talented if she was a man? If she was white? Probably not.
I really wish that were not the case, but with *{vague gesture}* everything that's been happening lately, it's irresponsible to not acknowledge it.
Especially since it's not a new problem. It's just a problem that's been more noticeable and prominent in the public eye lately.
Isnt that a conspiratorial account in and of itself? When it's more likely that they don't like her opinions and they happen to not see how much time/work she puts into videos?
@@percivalyracanth1528
Not Op, but I wouldn't call that comment conspiratorial. Especially starting with the statement, "unfortunate but probable". It sound more like an observation.
That is not to say that people might be thinking this consciously. It may be a subconscious bias. I would add that of course it doesn't help that Sabrina also looks young (with roundish features) and wear no makeup (the latter of which can paradoxically signal both competence and incompetence depending on circumstance, execution and the observer's personal biases). But I'm no expert.
The type of conspiracy theories on Sabrina have been levelled on men and women throughout history.
@@percivalyracanth1528 yah misogyny and racism are just a conspiracy >_> definitely no systematic and comprehensive evidence of that in our world

Im in a conspiracy theory history class this semester and I'm so excited. These UA-camrs out here doing all my homework for me
I think most of these people have heard about the brew channel where it's a channel that just seems like a UA-camr who is really good at animation and gong in-depth but is really run by a large company. Once you know that that channel is a company I can see why you would think other channels are like that
The fact that she did a video trying to show her in a more humanlike position (like sitting on her ber using a cellphone earphones microphone) makes me think even more than she is a very talented person
Oh man I wanted to make a video booth this soon, but this is so good (that animation tho!)! I love thinking about this stuff. 🤩🤔🤗
Great vid as always!!!
I’ve only stumbled upon this channel a few days ago, and I agree, this is high quality UA-cam content!
I find it hilarious that their main point is that sabrina's animations and art style is too good to not be the product of Big Quirky.
on a genuine side note, the videos you’ve made so far are not only so interesting to watch (both humanities and stem stuff) but also understandable lmfao, thank you fro breaking so much of this down into something thats digestible and understandable terms bc my pea brain does not process things as fast anymore. and your animation and visuals are just absolutely chef kiss!! overall, it’s amazing and i genuinely love and learn when i’m watching your videos
Rewatch Taha's section and in your mind replace the words "conspiracy theory" with "religion" and switch "big government/Illuminati" for "god/gods/a higher power".
As an atheist I feel like religious people don't examine their beliefs critically.
Edit: I might not have explained that as best I could. TL;DR apply the summary at 5:32 to religion.
read the “holy” bible throughly and you’ll become an atheist
About the idea that you cannot prove conspiracy theorists wrong, I remember a phrase that went along the line of "These people were confronted at some point with the choice of either being right, or being rational, and chose the former", and I think it sums up pretty well why it's such a hard issue to tackle.
this video has convinced me that sabrina definitely can’t be a private individual, she’s 100% a government employee
As someone who's been around since the first time you ever did a video on the Vlogbrothers channel and has seen all of your old videos, this is absolutely hilarious to me
But in all seriousness your videos have come so far from that old setup in your bedroom and the weird 2010s editing, it's been a joy watching your content and skills as a creator change and improve over the years, to this day you're one of my favorites
To disprove the theories you should show us how you make your videos look so good.
And what software you use
And and your cameras and techniques
And what stock libraries you use
And your general workflow
And if you took any online courses or use other resources
You know, for the conspiracy nuts.
That'd be cool to see, but it doesn't have to be for the conspiracy theorists. I feel like fans, like my self, would find a video like this entertaining.
Best B. That’s the point. Jake Macock isn’t a conspiracy theorist, he wants her to reveal all her tips for being as successful as she is on youtube so he can follow in her footsteps.
The animation on 7:40 was sooo good. I love the work that you keep on putting in these videos!
conspiracy’s are my favorite. like one moment it’s the pyramids next it’s lizard ppl.
"take care of your little brains" I love it! Also, really glad the patches you posted on twitter a while back are in the video! They look fantastic!
this video should have been sponsored by skillshare 😭

Sabrina is a synth. That explains everything
to make sure that a theory works, you have to as skeptical of it being true as you are of it being false. look for the same level of evidence, and you might get somewhere useful
That's a really cool way of thinking about it
@@aroundtenpercent that's how you science, basically. You have a theory of how thing works and design an experiment to prove yourself wrong. If you fail at that, you publish your paper and PROGRESS, if not, you might still publish as "unhelpful stuff we tried so you don't have to". Shame that conspiracy theories don't work quite that way
People are just bitter cos Sabrina is multi-talented. You CAN do all of these things if you actually plan it like a thing you mean it.
Sabrina: literally works with canadian government for her video about vaping

I live in an area where I’m considered a conspiracy theorist for thinking a lot of large corporations kinda suck. People don’t think monopolies are a problem, & I’m just a conspiracy theorist for thinking amazon and Disney and Walmart maybe aren’t great. How do you explain the difference between actually covered truths and wild conspiracy theories? I’ve had people genuinely tell me that “What’s wrong with a monopoly? They’re just smarter and better than their competition was so what’s the big deal?” Which is cool
I have a feeling that the country you live in is the US. Really, no other countries allow monopolies as often as the US. Simply because they don't feel fair for the rest of the population. Everyone should be able to thrive as they want. It's no longer about those that won the race, it's about those that are just starting their lives and are about to enter the race. They're handicapped. That's one side of why monopolies aren't good. The other thing is that without competition, the market stagnates. Because there's a monopoly, the person holding that monopoly no longer feels the need to innovate, and is also the only provider of the product/service. So prices rise, and the market itself never evolves while the rest of the world does. Competition must exist. It forces prices to self-control, so accessibility is never an issue, and forces the market to change and evolve, so more innovations can appear.
Hold too many monopolies for too long, now you've converted your capitalist state into a fascist one. To keep capitalism alive, some form of competition must exist, such that it balances the rest of the economy. That also avoids frequent government intervention. The economy becomes self-regulating and self-sustaining. No need to give tax breaks, no need to inflate markets so they don't die. Markets that are no longer relevant will eventually die off, and new markets will emerge.
Those people that hold monopolies sure earned them, but they shouldn't be able to keep them for too long. Good example: Disney. They just lobby the government so they can evergreen their copyright on the Mouse. Their market is stagnating. So, wouldn't that be a good reason to try to come up with something new?
_Being smart doesn't justify being stubborn._
1:08 That totally sounded like Stampy!
I think a point that will stick with me from this video is when Dr. Cassam said a tipping point comes when you ask "What evidence would I, the conspiracy theorist, need to in order to change my mind?" This feels like a really powerful tool to measure any closely held belief. It has room to maneuver for any belief, asks to think critically and skeptically and opens a rich self dialogue to self discovery. Thanks Sabrina & Taha for making this video. I believe you are an incredible skilled researcher, writer and media creator. You'd have to show me some solid evidence to change my mind on that! :P
Can't believe john and hank are lizard people.
The animations and video production is so good that I have crowned Sabrina as the queen of triangles...no srlsy,your animations are crazy beautiful, elegant and aesthetically pleasing..kinda sus but amazing!
